Laughing to death, this may be the most redundant domestic film of the year

Mondo Entertainment Updated on 2024-01-30

Approaching the end of the year, major film and television production companies are like rushing performance. The movie that was released was called a dow, and I couldn't watch it at all. One of them, eye-catching enough, is also controversial"Hiding from the Sky and Crossing the Sea".

The movie has been released for a week, and the Douban score is 63。Although there is a new generation"National husband" Xu Guanghan, but as of now, the box office is only 1500 million. Whether in terms of word-of-mouth or box office, it is at a decent level. What is interesting is the main creative team, which vividly interprets the psychology of "poor students copying good student test papers but afraid of being discovered".

"Good student" here refers to,"Hidden from the Sea" is a remake of "The Invisible Guest" by Spanish director Oriol Paulo. This suspense masterpiece has won unanimous praise at home and abroad. Douban 88. IMDB 8 points, Rotten Tomatoes 87.

The global box office is more than 30 million US dollarsRanked first in the contribution of the mainlandWhen the director came to the mainland to promote, he also specially gave him the title of "Reversal King". The main creative team estimated that there was a "feeling of weakness in the heart of the poor student", and only marked the remake with a line of small print at the end of the film. We are not the first country to remake "The Invisible Guest", Italy and South Korea have remade it, and the quality is without merit.

But to be honest, there is really no need for a remake of "The Invisible Guest". Like the popular "Perfect Strangers", why has more than a dozen countries been remade?Because the core of its story is "human nature and feelings".Each country has different human feelings and marriage systems, so the remake is interesting.

The domestic version is called "Caller Rhapsody".Although the score was not passed, the localization was very good. Many elements of "Chinese-style human affection" have been addedFor example, "live broadcast rewards, divorce to buy a house, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law get along, send parents to a nursing home" and so on. "The Invisible Guest" has no point to localizeThe most wonderful thing is the director's control of the rhythm and the ultimate use of details.

In other words, it doesn't matter if you change the location of Spain to any Asian country, because its general structural framework has been set in stone from the beginning. Xiaomei first summarizes the story outline for everyone who has not watched "The Invisible Guest" (due to the large number of characters, the following letters will be replaced). A and his lover destroyed B's body after accidentally killing B.

The lover, unable to stand the condemnation of his conscience, told B's parents the truth. But because A is powerful and powerful, ** cannot arrest him for the time being. The lover persuaded A to turn himself in, and A killed his lover again in order to protect himself.

A hired a gold medal lawyer C and wanted the other party to help him clear his criminal suspicion. In a confined space, C asks A about the whole process of the incident. A constantly breaks and reorganizes the story, and every version of the story in his mouth is lyingI want to blame my lover and B's parents for the bad things I did.

As everyone knows, he has fallen into the trap of revenge prepared by b's parents(C is pretending to be B's mother.) In the process of watching the movie, the audience has no perspective of God, and can only rely on their own reasoning to judge whether what A said is true or falseIt's very immersive. And when it comes to "Hiding from the Sky and Crossing the Sea", a line of bold characters is added directly:"106 minutes, 44 reversals".

On average, it reverses every two minutes, and this gimmick is worthy of Chen Sicheng's disciples. That's right, now the film industry has formed a "Chen Gate", and they all want to use the "Southeast Asian virtual city" to get a piece of the pie. It's just that its degree of speechlessness should be described as "painting snakes and adding feet". The first is the issue of sexual transformation and relationship reversal.

A (male) and lover (female) ——Jovina(Zhang Junning) andMing Hao(Yin Zheng). once again lamented the old understanding of the relationship between the sexes by domestic male directors. Originally, people were just a simple cheating lover relationship,Once you find that the other party threatens your interests, you will not hesitate to kill the killer.

As a result, when it came to Qiao Wenna and Ming Hao, this changed"Two people beat small and grew up in an orphanage",When getting along, the love-hate entanglement and affection are lingering. The treatment of Jovinna's character here is actually very separate. Because Minghao is a well-known designer, his adoptive father is also a well-known local expertThe movie has always emphasized that Giovina is a "bad woman" who will do anything to climb up for money and power.

Then why did she risk being swept away after marrying a wealthy family and having a private meeting with Ming Hao?Once the east window incident happens, won't the grass on both sides be uneaten?There is only one explanation that makes sense: even if she is a "bad woman" who loves money and power, her few sincere intentions must be left to the only "childhood sweetheart".

So that in the end, the two of them cried and made trouble from there, and Qiao Wenna killed Ming Hao in tearsThe little sister felt in a trance watching the ** dog blood ethics drama. guizeFortunately, this line is just a "drama", and its logic can be justified.

The next line of revenge is a complete reversal of the cart before the horse. b's parents avenged him—sonLv Cheng(Xu Guanghan) is his fatherLu PingAvenge.

's mother (played by Hui Yinghong) doesn't play as much space in this film as in "Saving the Suspect", and she has completely become a tool man.

Lu Cheng pretended to be a black-hearted policeman to find Qiao Wenna and offered to settle the matter with money. In the back and forth dialogue between the two, it is not difficult for the audience to seeThe plot direction is actually a continuation of the "Manslaughter" series. "Manslaughter 1" is the son of a sheriff who violates the daughter of an ordinary family.

Manslaughter 2 is about an ordinary couple trying their best to transplant a heart to a critically ill child, but the heart is snatched away by the mayor. And the renaming of "Hiding from the Sky and Crossing the Sea" to "Manslaughter 3" has no sense of disobedience. Lu Ping is a poor principal who does good deeds and a good father who replaces his son's kidney.

When Qiao Wenna made false accounts and slandered Lu Ping for absconding with money, the parents were angry about him and gathered together to seek justice for him. I didn't find it,"The government forced the people to rebel and rebel".This set has been used n times. "Chen Sicheng" knows too well what is the fuse that provokes the audience's emotions.

It's still a black and white opposition of class identityThe rich are consumed by the desire for profit, exploiting and oppressing the people at the bottom.

Then let the character always output golden sentences: "ants", "the poor are covered with their mouths", "people are originally divided into three, six, nine and so on". This leads to the fact that in the future, domestic movies will no longer need to use their brains to make suspense crime genres.

All followed"Remake Set of Templates".way, there are no surprises. Including the arrangement of the ending.

The ending of "The Invisible Guest" can be called a tingling of the audience's scalp.

Parents of A and B,A line of sight is achieved between the buildings. On one side, it was B's mother who took off her disguise and stared at him with her husband, and the voice recorder disguised as a pen recorded all the evidence. On one side, the real lawyer rang the doorbell.

A suddenly realized, but unfortunately it was too late, revealing a wry smile of "self-inflicted sins cannot live". And Lu Cheng just took off a hood. Yes, nothing else has changed.

And the reason why Lu Cheng was able to pretend to be a police officer was because a sheriff suddenly appeared to help him.

The front renders *** to buy and do not do personnel, and the poor have nowhere to redress their grievances. Later, with only a sense of justice, a sheriff can come to the door and arrest Joanna. There is more than one such abruptnessBut the audience didn't have time to think about the bugs and rationality in the film.

To borrow a changed line from the recently popular "News Queen": Maybe it used to be"Whatever the audience likes, the movie will be made". But now with the short ** fragmented marketing, it has become"What the movie feeds, the audience eats".

What needs to change is the audience, or the hands behind the movie?You and I know that. 100 help plan
