This year's summer movie market can be said to be dominated by the "Shen Ma" combination.
" Catch a Baby " has a Douban score of 7.3, with constant praise, and the box office has reached 2.53 billion. It seems that the box office of breaking through 3.5 billion is just around the corner.
However, it is too early to say that "Catch a Baby" will be the box office champion this summer.
No, its opponent is coming.
The spy drama " decrypted " is catching up, with box office exceeding 100 million in just one day after its release. It seems that director Chen Sicheng's charm is still as good as before.
In addition, " Deadpool and Wolverine " relied on emotions and high-quality plot to win 300 million box office, " Despicable Me 4", " Underworld ", " From the 21st Century Films such as "Safe Evacuation from " have achieved good results.
However, if these movies want to compete with "Catch a Baby" and "Decryption", they are still a bit far behind.
Competition in the theater movie market is fierce, and online movies are also competing brilliantly.
What attracted me the most was the kung fu blockbuster " Drunk Punch " starring Shi Xiaolong . It scored 8.6 on the first day it was released. After watching it, I want to say: It is a pity that this film will not be released in theaters.
A battle of justice, the plot is too passionate
"Drunk Punch" tells the story of Lin Yao (played by Shi Xiaolong), the eldest son of the Lin family, who is dedicated to practicing martial arts. He has a full sense of justice but cannot recognize people clearly. Step by step, he walks into Li Baimei (played by Yin Ziwei). In the trap set by others, the family fortune was lost.
After learning the truth, Lin Yao recognized his insignificant strength, studied Drunken Master painstakingly, and finally defeated Li Baimei and became a real hero.
For me, this movie has three magic weapons. It kept me entertained from beginning to end, and I had to hold my urine until the end.
The first magic weapon: high-energy reversals.
Compared with the strong sense of suspense of spy war themes, the kung fu movie "Drunk Punch" also has constant twists and turns.
As the young master of the wealthy Lin family, Lin Yao could have lived a pampered life, but he liked to practice martial arts since he was a child. He felt that he was the most powerful in the world, so he went to the streets every day to "tease cats and dogs" and compete in the ring.
In addition, he also likes to draw a sword to help when there is injustice on the road. When rescuing beggars on the road, Lin Yao was generous and was spotted by Li Baimei.
When Feng came to the building, he fell in love at first sight with Qin Shuang (played by Chen Xinwei), who was playing music, and clamored to redeem himself.
Unexpectedly, this fell into Li Baimei's trap. The other party first found someone to use Qin Shuang's contract to defraud money, and then stood next to Lin Yao and pretended to be a good person, stimulating Lin Yao to participate in the gambling game.
Who would have thought that Li Baimei, who helped Lin Yao expose the scam with righteous words, would be the mastermind behind Lin Yao's family fortune?
The plot of
is linked one by one, and a young master who "does not eat the fireworks of the world" is gradually tempered into a generation of "heroes". High-energy reversals are constantly happening, and every turn is unexpected. Each hook is too catchy. Eyeballs.
The second magic weapon: high-intensity martial arts scenes.
Since it is an action movie, thrilling fight scenes are indispensable.
Although "Drunk Punch" is an Internet drama, the quality of the picture is not outstanding. The two sides fighting in the drama are all real talents.
In the film, Lin Yao's last act of drunken fist is freehand and expressive. You come and go, with deadly moves. The movements seem to be doubled up, and the force is also upgraded. The male protagonist is completely addicted, and the visual impact is extremely eye-catching.
In this action scene, the sound of punches hitting the flesh is attacking the eardrums, and the punches and kicks are all between lightning and flint.
This is called a kung fu movie!
The third magic weapon: deep feelings.
"Drunk Punch" is not a pure kung fu movie. It is mixed with multiple elements such as love, family and country, and the tearful one is the scene between Shi Xiaolong and Hao Shaowen.
The two little ones in "Tornado Boy" and "New Oolong Academy" have grown into independent adults, but Uncle Da, who once coaxed the two little ones, is no longer there.
I can only say that Shi Xiaolong really put his heart into making this movie.
The powerful actors gather together to win the Acting Award
A good movie cannot be separated from the strength of the actors. The cast of "Drunk Punch" may not be the most luxurious, but it is the most accurate.
ranks first, Shi Xiaolong.
Shi Xiaolong made his debut at the age of 5 and starred in the movies "Tornado Boy" and "New Oolong Courtyard". Later, he played Zhan Zhao in "Young Bao Qingtian" to "extend" his career as a child star.
In 2003, he bid farewell to the film industry and went to study abroad. Now he has returned, but has become silent due to changes in the industry. It can be said that Shi Xiaolong is a regrettable and capable kung fu actor.
No teenage hero can compete with the times, and the same is true for the Kung Fu Kid who once amazed the world.
Although Shi Xiaolong is not very popular nowadays, he is unwilling to compromise. In "Drunk Punch", his character Lin Yao still has the drive to refuse to admit defeat.
The emotional rendering of the literary drama is perfect, and the martial arts drama is even more enjoyable. After watching the whole movie, I just want to say that the martial arts master who once shined for a while is back!
ranked second, Hao Shaowen.
The little monk wearing sunglasses in "New Oolong Yuan" has also grown up.
has the ability and acting skills but the popularity is mediocre. Hao Shaowen, who also debuted as a child star, is also a pity.
In the film, Hao Shaowen plays Lin Xi, Lin Yao's best friend and follower.
When he saw Lin Yao again after going through all kinds of difficulties, Lin Xi looked aggrieved, his mouth was pursed, and his eyes were full of tears. The sad feeling of seeing him again after a long separation made the atmosphere he created full.
The scenes between Hao Shaowen and Shi Xiaolong are really not enough to watch.
ranked third, Yin Ziwei.
Li Baimei, played by Yin Ziwei in the film, does all kinds of deception and abduction, and is a complete evil person. After
knocked down Lin Yao, Li Baimei made a plain mocking look on his face, his contemptuous eyes piercing the opponent's body, like a sharp knife, hitting the enemy's weak points.
When he went back on his word and forced Qin Shuang to kill someone, Li Baimei's expression was extremely evil and sinister, making people's hair stand on end. This role was played with so much tension in Yin Ziwei's hands.
ranked fourth, Chen Xinwei.
Qin Shuang, played by Chen Xinwei in the film, is so beautiful. When
appeared, she had long hair shawl, elegant makeup, and a pair of big moist eyes full of purity that didn't understand the world. Her pitiful appearance even moved me. No wonder Lin Yao fell in love with her at first sight.
After the accidental murder, Qin Shuang's tears kept rolling down, and her devastated look was even more endearing. Chen Xinwei's performance is definitely another highlight of the film in addition to the fighting scenes.
fifth place, Paul Che.
In "The Secret of the Tang Dynasty: Journey to the West", Zhou Lao played by Paul Cha is eerie and terrifying. When he first appeared, his mysterious and dangerous eyes once made the audience suspect that he was the murderer of the devil's escape case.
In the film, Paul Che turned into a poor beggar. Because he lost all the money given by Lin Yao in a gambling house, he had no choice but to come to beg again.
Facing Lin Yao's questioning, his face was full of sorrow, and his expressions were all twisted together, looking pitiful and angry. Although he is only a supporting role, Paul Cha's performance is so brilliant.
In addition, Yuan Qiongdan, Zhang Shi, Weng Hong and other powerful actors have all contributed wonderful performances in the film. "Drunk Punch", a Kung Fu blockbuster, is so worth watching.
Conclusion
From Bruce Lee in the 1970s, to Jackie Chan in the 1980s, Tsui Hark in the 1990s, and then to Donnie Yen after the new millennium, martial arts and kung fu films were once the mainstay of the film market.
However, after " Ip Man 4", kung fu movies gradually declined. In the current movie market full of special effects, it is really difficult to find a martial arts movie that is full of punches and not slow-motion.
The appearance of "Drunk Punch", although the distant water cannot relieve the near fire, it still makes people feel the hope of kung fu movies.
looks at Shi Xiaolong’s fighting scenes in the film. His moves are fierce and his punches break the wind. From the freehand environment to the clear and neat close combat, the tension is full between the virtual and the real. The moves are logical and can directly explode. Be cool.
It can be said that Shi Xiaolong has earned back the reputation of kung fu movies with his exciting fighting scenes!
