The Decline of Hong Kong Films from "Tomorrow's War"

After

" Tomorrow's War " came out, I went to watch it under the name of Gu Tianle . After I came out of the cinema, I couldn't calm down for a long time.

did not write an article in the first place, purely out of selfishness. There are not many people who do one thing seriously, but in this world, if you are serious, there will be rewards, or if you are not serious, there will be "achievements". Obviously, the problem with this "Tomorrow's War" is that it was done seriously, but there was no result.

As a sci-fi movie, the background setting of "Tomorrow's War" is very grand, but due to the influence of the location of the Hong Kong film, the space displayed is very small, so that the grand feelings are not set off by the grand scenes, so that it looks like A fight between brothers in a certain village, not saving the earth and maintaining world peace. There is no problem with the main lineup of

, Liu Qingyun , Zhang Jiahui , Carina Lau , Louis Koo, except for being too old, any one of them is enough for a big show, and the collision of fireworks is enough to make people memorable, but the supporting roles It was far from satisfactory, and the lack of green and yellow became the last straw that broke the Hong Kong film. Relying on the bones of old dramas to support scenes and pull feelings will only turn the last fig leaf of Hong Kong films into a rag. The phenomenon of killing chickens and taking eggs is not limited to Hong Kong films?

as a sci-fi movie, the industrial foundation is the key, mecha vs aliens was a special event in Europe and America in the early years, but with the continuous improvement of my country's industrial technology, " Wandering Earth ", " Crazy Alien" "People " has already shown the Chinese sci-fi under the prosperity of the manufacturing industry. It is possible to create exquisite pictures and shapes, but the shape and special effects of "Tomorrow's War" are obviously pulled to the crotch. Compared with the popular mecha shapes such as Autobots and Iron Man, "Tomorrow's War" can be said to fail in this regard.

The last point is the relationship between the characters. If "Tomorrow's War" is only shown in Hong Kong, the character relationship in the play is consistent with the usual setting, but "Tomorrow's War" needs to consider the national market, and the character relationship needs to be consistent According to the taste of the people of the whole country, the role is a special operations unit after all, and it is embarrassing to hear each one "brother". Ultraman 's mission setting to fight monsters, after dispatching a few planes, there is no air firepower, which obviously does not conform to the atmosphere of a big country.

Industrial production in Hong Kong, China, still needs to be built on the vast land of China to be able to show a real new atmosphere. No matter how well the financial economy develops, it is also necessary to know where its roots are, in order to grow more vigorously. Film art is more likely to reflect the overall development and basic strength of a region. The box office failure of "Tomorrow's War" is that it ignores the vastness of the land underfoot, so it is inevitable to hit the street; if Hong Kong films want to get out of the predicament, they must add "" Only in this way can the word "China" show the atmosphere of the Chinese people, rather than the declining financial capital of Hong Kong.
