The new " Dream of Red Mansions " is finally online. The movie " Dream of Red Mansions: A Good Marriage " was filmed in 2018 and will not meet the audience until the summer of 2024. It is scheduled to be released in these days In the past few months, the movie "A Dream of Red Mansions: A Beautiful Marriage" has gone through a bumpy process of being scheduled, withdrawn, and then released again. I thought the release of the movie would be like "The boat has passed the Ten Thousand Mountains".
The movie box office and reputation of the movie prove that director Hu Mei has Mount Everest in front of her.
Click to open the discussion related to the movie, which is a unanimous negative review from netizens. In the face of doubts from netizens, director Hu Mei has always been on the front line of anti-gangsters. While preparing to collect evidence and accuse the gangsters, he posted several questions in succession "Hu Mei is blind?" Is this girl really ugly? "
The audience's harsh comments obviously did not wake up those who were pretending to be asleep. Director Hu Mei was obviously really immersed in constructing "Dream of Red Mansions" and could not listen to any comments from the outside world.
Fortunately, the audience has the support of aesthetic online media. As the reputation of the movie "A Dream of Red Mansions" has fermented, the Beijing Daily published an article complaining "Remakes of classics cannot be inferior to the previous generation." Among them, "A Dream of Red Mansions" was criticized by name. "A Good Match", every word in it reveals the reason why the movie is not popular.
The first point is the temperament compatibility between the actor and the role.
The most important protagonists in the movie "A Dream of Red Mansions" are Lin Daiyu and Jia Baoyu, and the casting of these two characters was overturned.
Jia Baoyu, played by Bian Cheng, should have been the apple of his eye and a noble young master, but Bian Cheng's image is too ordinary. In daily dramas, the blush on his cheeks is as good as a monkey's butt. If his expressions are slightly exaggerated, his appearance will be completely ruined. .
On the faces of Zhang Miaoyi and Bian Cheng, the audience can find obvious angular flaws, and this is what the audience cannot accept.
The second point is that the picture production is rough and the texture is very similar to that of a studio
The movie "A Dream of Red Mansions: A Beautiful Marriage" is a work that cost 200 million yuan. It should have the quality of a theatrical movie, but the movie picture is very cheap. The filter was applied too hard, and the bathhouse filter was so exaggerated that the actor’s facial features could not be seen clearly.
As for the scenery, the Grand View Garden in the movie really does not have the feeling of a wealthy and aristocratic family. On the contrary, the beautiful Grand View Garden is decorated like the backyard of a brothel. The feeling of a photo studio is too strong and the sense of substitution is very poor.
The third point is the flaw in the plot, a commercial gimmick
The plot of "A Dream of Red Mansions: A Beautiful Marriage" is completely out of place compared to the plot of the original work. The whole movie is like a collection of short videos, and the adaptation of the plot is exactly the same as the original work. Both, the filmed feeling is not as profound as the original work.
What is most unacceptable to the audience is the emphasis on depicting some sexy scenes in the movie, which makes people particularly uncomfortable. Some of the "sexy" characters in the original work are all portrayed as vulgar and charming. The superficial portrayal of the characters is doomed to make the plot useless. Holes deep into the core.
As the Beijing Daily said, the reason why the movie "A Dream of Red Mansions" is not recognized is because of its outrageous casting, rough production, and messy main story. But no matter how good the movie is, the audience will often only focus on the work, not the actors or behind the scenes. However, the public opinion fermentation of "A Dream of Red Mansions" has obviously involved the reputation of the director and actors.
What makes public opinion continue to expand and make the audience's anger grow stronger is the arrogance and perfunctoryness of the main creative staff.
The movie hit two major points, and the audience finally couldn't bear it.
Beijing Daily summarized the reasons why most flop movies flopped, and two of them are almost common problems in this type of works.
The first point is the self-righteousness of the main creative team.
Since the release of "A Dream of Red Mansions: A Beautiful Marriage", the box office and word-of-mouth have spoken for everything, but looking at director Hu Mei's attitude, it is a naked challenge.
Audiences said that Lin Daiyu, played by Zhang Miaoyi, was ugly. Hu Mei broke her guard and sent Zhang Miaoyi's solo poster and asked, "Where is it ugly?" But in fact it is not Zhang Miaoyi who is ugly, but Lin Daiyu played by Zhang Miaoyi. This has to do with acting skills, makeup and image suitability.
When bad reviews started to appear in droves, Hu Mei started to start conspiracy theories again, saying that some people were deliberately looking for trolls to rip off movies. She didn’t even think about a movie that was losing money with a box office of less than 5 million. Is it really worth spending money and energy to find people to rip off people?
The director is arrogant and self-righteous, and so are the actors. In the road show interview, Zhang Miaoyi's interpretation of Lin Daiyu was all clever. She jumped out of Lin Daiyu's character setting and disrespected the character in every word. She criticized the ancients with modern people's ideas and criticized a society that was restrained by the feudal era. A tragic woman whose arrogance is destined to play a bad role.
The second point is that the creative team overly caters to the market.
commercializes and dramatizes a film, which seems to cater to the audience, but in fact it still despises the audience. The problem with "A Dream of Red Mansions" is that all its changes based on the original work are in pursuit of drama. The creative team subconsciously believes that they can control the password of box office and traffic, but in fact they are shooting themselves in the foot.
The grand structure of "A Dream of Red Mansions" cannot be presented in a two-hour movie. The movie "A Dream of Red Mansions: A Beautiful Marriage" attributes the ending of the movie to Lin Daiyu herself, thinking that it has stepped on the hot topic of women, but it ignores the movie The Core tells more than just women. This may seem like a brilliant idea, but it's actually a foolish mistake.
As for the style of expression, the painting style of "A Dream of Red Mansions: A Beautiful Marriage" is really iconic, especially on the emotional line. The ancient love triangle feeling of sadomasochism came to my face. Many scenes made me mistakenly think that I I'm watching "Three Lives Three Worlds: A Dream of Red Mansions".
The ancient puppet market is indeed huge, but not every story is suitable for this kind of streamlined commercial packaging. In particular, "A Dream of Red Mansions" is still positioned as a theatrical movie, and the effect is even worse.
To put it bluntly, the audience is tired of seeing all the drama in the film and television industry in the past two years. Before the movie was released: "The audience is God", when the movie was announced: "Celebrities worked tirelessly", and after the movie was released, the reputation was not as good as expected: "The audience can't appreciate the fine chaff". Audiences have long become a type of automatic resentment. They cannot objectively evaluate a poorly made movie. Only by clapping and applauding can they see the good looks of the director and actors.
In such an environment in the film and television industry, there is an even greater need for media that speak to the audience.
Beijing Daily’s spicy review, every word of it, not only touched the hearts of the audience, but also struck a chord with “A Dream of Red Mansions” and most similar movies.
Faced with this situation, I just want to say: let the complaints be more intense.
