Bao Bell has come out on the Internet again - " controls " .
To be honest, the speed is quite fast.
Some time ago, we just talked about his movie "A Great Future". is a quite surprising movie , but the results are not very good. It was launched for more than 20 days and the cost was not recovered.
And this new network is big, just the opposite. As soon as
was launched, its popularity reached number one, and its share of accounts exceeded one million.
However, it is one thing to have outstanding results, and another thing to see whether they are good or not.
originally thought that with the participation of Xie Miao in "Violence Control" and the fact that Bao Beier's acting skills were in an "explosion period", the overall presentation would be refreshing to the audience.
I didn’t expect that after reading it, I was speechless and stuck in my throat. Let’s talk about this latest movie.
01. A speechless "large-scale" plot, with a slight suspicion of "selling dog meat over a sheep's head"
The story begins with a case of abducting women. The heroine Qiu Yizhao (played by Jiang Luxia) is the suspect in this case. Undercover. After
successfully entered the criminal gang, she followed her original plan, creating chaos within the enemy and waiting for support.
Coincidentally, Binzhou police officer Li Hongqi (played by Xie Miao), who was also an undercover police officer, also exposed his identity at a critical moment and worked with Qiu Yizhao to subdue the entire criminal gang.
Actually, when I first saw and , Uncle Fan was still looking forward to it.
Firstly, there are not many in-depth interpretations of "women trafficking" cases in domestic crime movies;
Secondly, Xie Miao and Jiang Luxia, who have just appeared, are quite attractive in terms of their characters and scenes. For example, Xie Miao The small detail of handing over the cigarette and the scene in Jiang Luxia's eyes made the two policemen obviously different.
As a result, when the subsequent plot came out, Uncle Fan discovered that the previous fighting scene had little to do with the subsequent storyline. The only function of
is to let and show their faces.
After all, his character is also named Li Hongqi, so it is hard not to be reminded of the "Northeast Police Story" series.
The real story begins with the appearance of Chengjie (played by Bao Beier), the chairman of a certain group.
This Chengjie is a self-made chairman with a big family and a big business.
However, he is very superstitious.
When entering a temple, he kneels down and bows nine times. When he meets someone who refutes his "hobby", he will always reward him with his first beer bottle.
Therefore, when the master told him that he was about to be robbed, and that his family's wealth might be lost and his life would be at risk, the latter immediately believed it.
So, after Chengjie made a "devout" request for help, the master performed a ritual for him, and even asked the latter to find a "soft-faced" woman who met the requirements within three days to perform the "Chou Gong Ceremony" .
Unfortunately, this woman who meets the requirements is an employee of her company, Han Mei (played by Zhao Xixi).
In the film, Han Mei's character is a single mother and a good friend of the heroine.
Actually, after seeing this, everyone can guess a thing or two about the plot behind it.
That's right, Cheng Jie used the company's reputation as an "outstanding employee" to get in touch with Han Mei, and offered to give her one million in exchange for "accompanying him for one night."
Unsurprisingly, Han Mei refused.
Cheng Jie, a "big shot", was naturally unhappy, so he simply resorted to violence, and even caused Han Mei to become a vegetative state afterwards.
Such a case naturally alarmed the police.
But as the villain in the film, Cheng Jie is by no means as gentle as he seems on the surface. On the contrary, his methods are extremely ruthless.
On the one hand, he asked his wife to cooperate with him in acting in front of the media, falsely claiming that Han Mei had seduced him, and changing the direction of public opinion;
On the other hand, he asked his men to keep an eye on Han Mei's neighbors and the female protagonist in the case, I hope that violence and money will be used to eliminate this case.
But he didn't expect that the heroine Qiu Yizhao not only has strong investigation ability, but also has strong fighting ability. Through difficult evidence collection, she finally got justice for her friend.
Frankly speaking, the whole story is really ordinary. It almost completely follows the template of traditional crime movies, plain and uncomplicated. The most important thing about
is that there are some plots that make people complain.
For example: when the heroine Qiu Yizhao in the opening film faced a group of criminal gangsters, she bluntly said "you are under arrest", but without saying a word she singled out everyone.
Furthermore, as a witness, Jiang Xiaoshan wanted to call the police, but he had to drink to the lakeside to give the people following him a chance before calling the police.
What everyone complained about the most was the part where Chengjie let his child be born early.
Indeed, sometimes the plot needs some "spicy" scenes in order to highlight the characteristics of the characters, such as cruelty.
But Chengjie, as a self-made boss who believed in superstition, would never be so bottomless, but sacrificed his own child, and finally beat the master to death.
There is a logical conflict between these two behaviors, which makes people speechless.
02, Bao Beier, still trying too hard
In fact, Bao Beier can still handle such a "gentle villain".
But compared to Mr. Zhao in " Big Shot ", this time he is indeed too powerful.
Especially in the film, when he learned that everyone actually took leave to go home, his eyes looked up diagonally, with a gloomy expression, which made people feel vicious and violent.
But at this time, he was far from showing his true face, and there was no need to treat his subordinates with such an expression.
In order to show the villain's sense of oppression, in the film, Bao Beier often has an expressionless face and looks at people with downcast eyes.
But in fact, with such a performance, it is difficult to show the character's mood at different times in detail.
For example, the comparison between Cheng Jie's eyes when he beats someone and the way he looks at the doctor operating on his wife in the hospital is similar, but the environment is different, so Cheng Jie's inner drama should be different.
Also at the company dance, he was showing off his affection one second, and then began to pursue beauty the next, which highlighted that behind all the glamour, there was calculation.
However, if your expressions and movements are too exaggerated, aren’t you afraid of being noticed?
In addition, Bao Beier's smile most of the time in the film is a bit fake and even a bit scary.
To put it bluntly, Bao Beier understood the duality of the character Cheng Jie, but he didn't play it well.
In fact, from some details, it can be seen that Bao Beier wants to play this role well.
For example: he always takes off his glasses before using violence, and these glasses also represent the character's rare humanity and restraint.
When someone stopped his wife to prevent her from escaping, Bao Beier swallowed grapes to cover up his inner sin.
The design of these actions shows Bao Beier's intentions.
But the fullness of a character is often reflected in the delicate changes in eyes and expressions. Bao Beier still needs to work hard on this.
03. I was a little surprised. I ended up becoming a fan of the second female lead after watching it.
Strictly speaking, "Violence Control" cannot be summed up as "bad" in the field of Internet majors.
First of all, is still more exciting than .
Especially the actress Jiang Luxia , she is almost the "force bearer" of the whole film. From the beginning to the end of the film, she fights with fists and punches, which is very real and emotional.
Especially the scene of the life-and-death struggle with Cheng Jie in the office was very tense.
Furthermore, the female characters in the film do not stretch their hips, and their acting skills are quite online.
For example: Imina plays Cheng Xiaosang.
At the beginning, she appeared emotionally, and I thought she would have to take on a larger role in the Internet drama.
But as the plot unfolded, Uncle Fan discovered that this was not the case.
On the contrary, she not only had many fighting scenes in the film, she even contributed wonderful acting skills at the end.
For example: when she was abandoned by Chengjie at the end, she went from disbelief to acceptance, and then laughed and shed tears; when she was ridiculed by the heroine, her sideways look was full of determination.
To be honest, I was really amazed by her.
Of course, the most popular one in the drama is probably the second female lead, Han Mei.
In the film, Zhao Xixi plays Han Mei, whose role is very three-dimensional.
As a single mother, she has a warmth in her body. She is very gentle towards her friends, father, and even neighbors.
When faced with inappropriate demands, she showed toughness and persistence to the bottom line.
But when faced with abuse, Han Mei is ultimately in a weak position, and the fear and weakness she displays is very sympathetic.
Especially when the neighbor called her name, the look in her eyes that saw hope but was afraid of losing was really touching.
It should be mentioned here that Zhao Xixi is a new actor.
has previously appeared in "Northeast Love Song 2" and also collaborated with Bao Beier. She is better known as a short drama actress. The four short dramas she starred in this year are all very popular on the Internet.
Judging from the current situation, Zhao Xixi’s appearance and acting skills are both very good. I believe she will perform even more brilliantly in the future.
Overall, Bao Beier's new work "Violence Control" did not satisfy the audience.
Firstly, the plot is bland and there are many unreasonable things; secondly, Bao Beier did not perform well this time; thirdly, many people are attracted to Xie Miao, but they did not expect that the "containing Miao" of this film is so little .
But from some perspectives, the image of Qiu Yizhao, a policewoman in "Violence Control", makes the universe of "Northeast Police Story" fuller.
also allows the audience to see the power of women to protect themselves and others, such as Qiu Yizhao's fight scene and the scene in the film where he takes off his coat to cover up Chengjie's wife's urine leakage in public.
Finally, I hope that this kind of evaluation can really make Bao Beier think a little bit.
