The movie "The Annual Party Can't Stop" is written and directed by Dong Runnian, starring Dapeng, Baike, Zhuang Dafei Leading the cast, Wang Xun stars, Sun Yizhou guest stars, Li Naiwen, Ouyang Fenqiang and other special guest stars. This is a refreshing movie. Its unique theme and wonderful interpretation moved the audience with laughter and brought strong positive energy to people. Since its release, Douban ratings have continued to rise, and it has become the highest-rated domestic comedy on Douban in the past five years.
The film tells the story of Hu Jianlin (played by Dapeng), an upright and enthusiastic workplace rookie who was accidentally transferred to the group headquarters when the group was laying off employees. The erring HR manager Ma Jie (played by Bai Ke) was forced to deal with Hu Jianlin in order to keep his job. The concealment triggered all kinds of hilarious stories, and also reflected a series of thought-provoking weird phenomena in the workplace.
This movie has a compact plot, clear story clues, and distinctive characters. Each character has his or her own story. Although the actors are not top-notch, their superb performances added a lot to the movie and left an impression on the audience. deep impression. Especially when Dapeng played the role of senior fitter Hu Jianlin, he fully displayed Hu Jianlin's character traits and emotional changes, making people have a strong resonance with this character. The names of the characters also have specific metaphors. For example, Zhuang Zhengzheng, played by Wang Xun, has a homophone of "pretending to be honest". It is impossible to be honest in dealing with others. Zhuang Dafei plays Penny, an outsourcer, which has a homophone of "rebellion". She dares to tell the truth. The words are neither hypocritical nor deceptive, and face the current plight of many young people facing unfair treatment in the workplace. As for the protagonist’s name, Hu Jianlin, the film was shot in a Wanda office building. It is unknown whether it is homophonic with Wanda’s founder. The production of the entire movie cannot be regarded as grand and expensive, but each character has entered the hearts of the audience, and it is easy for people to resonate with it, and even "fit in".
is also excellent in terms of visuals. The photographer used unique photography skills to vividly display the scenes and atmosphere in the movie, bringing a strong visual impact to the audience. The sound effects and soundtrack create a richer emotional atmosphere for the movie. For example, in the climax of the movie, the soundtrack sounded timely, allowing the audience's emotions to be fully released. For example, in Hu Jianlin's song "My Future Is Not a Dream", "I know, my future is not a dream" runs throughout, presenting to the audience the absurdity and irony brought about by a little person breaking into a strange world, while also allowing the audience to A hearty laugh followed by deep thought. Perhaps this is the fundamental reason why the movie "The Annual Party Can't Stop" was able to achieve both word-of-mouth and box office success. An excellent comedy is by no means a pile-up and collage of hilarious jokes like the "If You Are the One" series, but should be based on "The Annual Party Can't Stop" has an interlocking, rigorous and complete comedy structure.
In addition, the filming location of the movie is also worth mentioning. Changsha landmark elements such as Orange Island and Xiangjiang River Bridge are fully displayed in the movie. When the protagonists of the film walk on the streets of Changsha, the back streets and alleys lined with high-rise buildings emit a strong smoke, fully displaying the prosperity of the city and the humanistic atmosphere of the streets, allowing the audience to deepen their understanding of Changsha and feel the atmosphere of Changsha. vitality and charm. 2024 has just arrived, and countless foreign tourists are still gathering in Huangxing Road, Wuyi Square, Taiping Street, Juzizhou, Yuelu Mountain, Radio and Television and other places. When they see the locations in the movie, they are where they are, making the audience feel like they are in the same place. You will feel particularly friendly in the city of Changsha. Near the climax of the movie, when Hu Jianlin and others obtained sufficient evidence, they stood on the steps close to the Xiangjiang River, facing the neon lights in the center of the river and the majestic night posture of the Second Xiangjiang Bridge (Beida Bridge), and fought with the "enemies" for a while. Crazy output, the promise of the "bad guy" is full of temptation, which fully reflects the character's psychological changes and concepts of right and wrong. The successful counterattack is also related to the positive energy spread in this city and the atmosphere displayed.
Undoubtedly, "The Annual Party Can't Stop" is not only a fictional movie, but also a wonderful comedy, and it is also a workplace fairy tale full of absurd irony. In a humorous and ironic way, it cleverly reveals various injustices in the workplace and the oppression of workers. It shows a simple but profound truth: only by adhering to justice and truth can we remain invincible in the struggle for power. As the movie progresses, people can feel the strength and warmth of the workers, as well as the care and progress of society.
Of course, although the characters in the movie are vivid, they still need to be improved in terms of character depth. They cannot fully reflect the deeper inner world of the characters, cannot show the ups and downs of "risking death and living again", and are not particularly sad. link. The rhythm of the plot is still slow, the turns are not tight enough, and the scene transitions are a bit jerky and not smooth enough. In terms of visual impact, the artistic contrast technique is not sophisticated enough. The protagonist's experience and growth are also too humorous and frivolous. The sensational aspects still need to be added in educational and enlightening significance.
Overall, "The Annual Party Can't Stop" is a movie worth watching. Not only is it interesting, it also has some depth. The ticket price is not as expensive as a 3D-produced "blockbuster", and the duration is less than two hours. When taking a walk after cooking, or having a family reunion on the weekend, you can walk into the theater accidentally or intentionally, and then happily chat about interesting things about your workplace. , encouraging each other to find better working methods is a very good choice. I believe that I will welcome the new year with laughter and plan the new year with thinking.
