Although the Qingming Festival has passed, the competition for movies in this period has not stopped.
So far, the biggest winner of the new Qingming movies -
is still the animated film " What kind of life do you want to live " created by Hayao Miyazaki.
The cumulative box office of the film exceeded 500 million. The familiar style and warm and healing plot have protected the box office and reputation.
On the other side, the anti-fraud and anti-MLM theme " Grass and Trees in the World " invited Jiang Qinqin , Chen Jianbin and Wu Lei to take charge.
However, the film has only gimmicks and no core. It is more like a landscape film with good photography. The cumulative box office is only more than 60 million, which is a huge disappointment.
However, there are other "movies" that have the worst box office performance.
That is the comedy movie " Big "Villains" starring Bao Bell .
Looking at the title, this film is a bit similar to his other film " "Big" Man ".
You must know that in the latter movie, Bao Beier relied on "The entire consumption will be paid by Mr. Zhao" to push the film to a box office of 380 million.
Rumor in the world: Bao Beier with hair is not easy to mess with.
Now he puts on a wig and appears on the big screen, and he has changed from a "big" character to a big "villain". It can be seen that he is still rushing to harvest the box office.
It is a pity that after the release of Bao Beier's new film, the single-day box office was only 1.95 million, and the cumulative box office was only more than 19 million, which is less than a fraction of Miyazaki Hayao's new film.
It’s just one word, I’ll only say it once.
So what exactly is wrong with this "The Big Villain"?
01 The plot is nonsense, a brainless comedy
"The Villain" is not a hard-core anti-crime criminal investigation film like "The Big Man", but a pure comedy movie.
The story tells the story of the young actor Bi Chao (played by Bao Beier) who finally won the script of the villain, but suffered an accident and lost his memory.
Subconsciously, he thought that he was a vicious villain. In order to let his wife and daughter live a good life, he decided to kidnap the rich man and compete with the real villains.
Just from the plot summary, you can feel how outrageous this movie is, right? The main film is even more speechless.
The joke about amnesia in a car accident didn’t become popular 800 years ago.
Moreover, after amnesia, the male protagonist saw the objects scattered on the ground and deduced that he was the villain. He also continued to advance the plot of the villain and acted according to the plan, which resulted in a series of subsequent conflicts.
But it is obvious that the character's motivations are untenable from the beginning, and all the plots are serving the setting of "amnesia", which makes the script particularly thin.
Not only that, in the movie you can feel the way comedy was handled more than ten years ago.
The "Home Alone-style" chase scene and the "Journey to Death" encounters are simply funny for the sake of being funny.
The pile of jokes not only failed to reach the heart-wrenching essence of the comedy, but the effect was neither salty nor light. When the baggage stopped, I felt embarrassed for Bai Beier in front of the screen.
And the two female characters in the film seem to have been created with the brains of the last century.
Wu Wen, played by Yoko Lame, is the male protagonist's first wife, a good wife and loving mother, hardworking and uncomplaining, but extremely mediocre in appearance.
But men like hot beauties like Clara.
Therefore, the amnesiac male protagonist mistakenly believes that Bingbing, played by Clara, is his wife, and even in order to raise a beautiful wife, he does not hesitate to brainwash himself to complete the villain's plan.
The finale is as expected. Of course, Yoko's character chooses to forgive her husband for cheating on her because of amnesia.
can only say that the story of "The Big Villain" is a combination of bloody, vulgar, and embarrassing. The plot has nothing new, and the laughs are forced to pile up. It is not even up to the level of Internet majors, and it actually dares to appear in major movies. It was released in theaters, and I really didn’t even feel ashamed.
02 Actors determine the box office, Bao Beier, stop filming
The success of a movie cannot be separated from an excellent cast.
As can be seen from "The Great "Rebel"", Bao Beier's popularity is not very good, but his popularity in domestic entertainment is not bad. He invited Wei Xiang, Jia Bing, Wang Xun, Yin Zheng, Many well-known actors such as Yang Haoyu and Chang Yuan came to sit down.
But no matter how hard these people work, there are only so many roles, and in fact they can't do anything, they just look good.
What really determines the box office and reputation is the protagonist group.
And how many people gave up the idea of going to the theater to watch a movie after seeing the name "Bao Beier".
Don't look at the appearance of "Big" Man, Bao Beier received some praise, but these praises are simply a drop in the bucket for his popularity among passers-by.
What's more, apart from this movie, Bao Beier has been afraid of one bad movie after another in recent years. The Douban score is basically around 4 points, not even touching the passing mark.
However, with such low popularity, Bao Beier’s resources should not be underestimated.
In other words, he should have had a good deck of cards, but he was beaten to pieces by himself.
From the wedding incident to his wife Bao Wenjing's love-brained remarks, Bao Beier's character has been questioned many times. In addition, his works have continued to hit the market. The audience has long had no expectations for him, and naturally they are not willing to accept his new work. Buy it.
In addition, Yoko Rame’s popularity with the public is not very good either.
Mainly because of her unappealing appearance, small nose and eyes, lack of affinity, and her performances are always quite exaggerated. There are no comedians like Jia Ling, Li Xueqin, and Ma Li that are pleasing to the eye.
But her resources are not weak. Not only did she film the ancient puppet show "Traveling with the Phoenix", she also made an appearance in the film industry.
It’s a pity that there are reasons why some people are not popular. The appeal of Yoko in the new movie lies here. The director made a wrong bet. In choosing Yoko as the heroine, it is better to give Clara a few more scenes.
This Korean actress relies on her sexy figure to appear in major online and low-budget theater movies.
And every time she appears, the director's camera always focuses on her chest, thighs, etc., so that mentioning Clara's name always makes people think of words such as "vulgar" and "edgy". Can't hold up the movie box office.
03 Conclusion
If you want to watch a movie that is useless? Then I can recommend you to watch "The Great Villain".
It's rare to see such a bad comedy in a theatrical movie.
has bad laughs, bad acting, bad casting, and bad plot.
The last movie that made the audience laugh was the happy twist "Super Family".
can only say that Bao Beier is slightly better than Happy Twist in the field of scolding.
But why is Bao Beier so unpopular, yet there are still people willing to film with him?
I think this is probably the tragedy of domestic movies.
The entertainment industry is a place that values humaneness and sophistication and puts resources first. Bao Beier has been in the industry for many years and has a good reputation, but his connections are valued by the audience.
only hopes that future creators can stick to the bottom line and adhere to their principles, and not allow anyone to tarnish the film industry.
So do you think Bao Beier's new movie is worth spending money to watch in the cinema?
