On September 23rd, films such as "Ordinary Heroes", "The King of the Sky", "Returning Thousands of Miles" and " Iron Will " were successively announced to be released on September 30th. "New Cinderella 2" and "I Am a Tyrannosaurus Rex", a total of seven films are competing in the National Day file, and the competition is very fierce. So which one will be the winner, and which one will accompany it? Let's analyze it below.
On the subject matter: "The Journey Home" is attractive, "King of the Sky" is quite enjoyable
This year's National Day file is very different from previous years. In previous years, movies that were planned to be released on National Day will be set very early in order to allow enough publicity period to warm up, which will help to harvest more box office after their release.
However, due to various reasons this year, it was not until September 23 that several blockbuster films were announced successively. The fundamental reason is not that the announcement and release party has been unable to make up their minds, but that they are all stuck and have not given a schedule. Only when they agree to the release can the announcement and release party promote it with great fanfare. The official release date was only on September 23, which meant that there was only less than a week left for the publicity period, which made the filmmakers very passive and did not have enough time for publicity. Such fierce competition at the same time period can be described as short arms. The quality has not been determined before, so the first thing to fight must be the subject matter, actors and directors.
In terms of subject matter, "Homecoming" is the best-selling. Based on true events, the film tells the story of the outbreak of war in the Republic of Numia, and the former resident diplomats and new diplomats were ordered to assist to evacuate . After the mission ended successfully, they learned that there were still a group of trapped compatriots who were heading to the border evacuation point under the leadership of a lady, so the two gave up the opportunity to go home and entered the war zone retrograde. Facing the muzzle of the rebel army, they had to lead The compatriots got out of trouble and went home safely. From the plot introduction,
is actually very similar to the theme of the main theme, but don't forget, whether it is "Wolf Warrior 2" by Wu Jing or " Operation Red Sea " directed by Lin Chaoxian , it is actually based on the evacuation of overseas Chinese. As the theme, they have won the annual box office champion, and even "Wolf Warrior 2" has maintained the position of the Chinese film box office champion for several years. The filming threshold for the subject of evacuation is high, so related works are relatively scarce. In addition, due to the epidemic in the past three years, there are constantly news of overseas compatriots and students returning to China. Originally, the audience paid more attention to this subject. More importantly, the theme of the evacuation of overseas Chinese allows the film to have a lot of room to play. Shootout, action, military operations, etc. can all be put into the film, which will not make the audience feel exaggerated and violated, so from the theme, " "Returning Miles" is the best.
is followed by King of the Sky. The theme of this film can be described as a different approach, focusing the camera on the little-known profession "test pilot, as the name suggests, the test pilot is the pilot of the test aircraft. And they are not flying the civil aircraft , but the fighter . A Before the fighter is officially put into operation, the test pilots need to test the safety boundary and limit state of the aircraft again and again. The movie not only includes the test flight of the latest and most advanced fighter jets, but also the hell-style training and training of the test pilots. Extreme challenges. So it is not difficult to imagine that from the perspective of the picture, "The King of the Sky" must be very enjoyable and will be loved by the audience.
On the actors: "Ordinary Hero" is the most luxurious, "Homecoming" is the most endearing Before it comes out, another important factor that can attract audiences to buy tickets is the cast. Judging from several heavyweight movies that have been set, the cast of "Ordinary Hero" is the most luxurious. The film tells about an air emergency rescue, a 7-year-old boy The arm was twisted by a tractor, and he had to rush to Urumqi for surgery within the 6-hour limit, so a relay rescue in a race against time began.Li Bingbing,Feng Shaofeng,Huang Xiaoming,Lin Yongjian, Zhang Yishan and other well-known actors starred, in addition to Zhou still , Wang Zixuan , Zeng Yue, Du Chun , Guli Nazha , Ma Tianyu , Huang Yi and other actors starred. The film is produced by Bona Films, which has produced films such as " Changjin Lake " and " Captain China "Produced by , maybe such a big company has such a strong appeal! The last time I saw such a strong cast was last year's main theme movie " me and my father ".
But the problem is that the length of the film is limited, and there are more actors, everyone will have fewer shots, and even if there are few scenes, it is difficult to have enough time to shape the characters. How much to worry about. Therefore, apart from this one, the actor I am most looking forward to is "Homecoming".
Judging from the trailers that have been released, Zhang Yi should give the audience new surprises, while Wang Junkai presents a better performance than "Broken Bridge". In addition to these two people, Yin Tao , Li Xuejian , Cheng Taishen , Zhang Zixian , Wan Qian are also reliable actors, so "The Journey Home" must be very interesting.
on the director: "Homecoming" is the most reliable, "The King of the Sky" is the question mark
director is the soul of the film, which directly affects the quality of the film. Therefore, it is more scientific to judge the quality of the film according to the director.
Among the several released movies, the director I like most is Rao Xiaozhi of "The Homecoming", and the producer is the director of " The Wandering Earth " Guo Fan.
Before this one, Rao Xiaozhi's "Hello, Crazy! " No-Name ", " Crowd " and so on have brought a lot of surprises to the audience. This time, "The Way Back" should be the biggest project Rao Xiaozhi has managed since he started his career. I believe he will not disappoint the audience.
If you want to choose a movie that is not very promising, it should be "The King of the Sky". Director Liu Xiaoshi is not a newcomer. In 2014, he served as the director's assistant to Ning Hao and participated in the filming of " Heart Flower Road Fang", It's not clear how the directorial burden of "Lord of the Sky" would fall on his shoulders. But judging from the trailer, there are no breakthroughs and innovations on the screen, especially the aerial shots, which basically rely on special effects to complete, unlike " Top Gun 2", which takes the effort to shoot in the air, which shows that in the film industry No bold attempt.
Of course, the specific quality will not be known until it is released, and we will share our impressions at that time. Which National Day movies are you most looking forward to?
