Produced by Chen Sicheng, directed by Dai Mo, and starring Zhang Yi, the criminal investigation movie "Three Teams" will be released soon. Speaking of which, there are really a lot of criminal investigation films in the film market this year, Dapeng and Lin Jiadong's "The Eighth Suspect", the eleventh "Solid as a Rock", Zhu Yilong's "Mistake by the River", plus the just-released "Silent Record", why did criminal investigation films emerge this year?How does this genre stand out?Let's take an exclusive look.

The glory is gone. Criminal investigation films are not "cost-effective".

Criminal investigation films have always occupied a place in China's film market, as early as 1980, the criminal investigation film "405** Case" set off a movie-watching boom of more than 100 million people. Its fascinating plot setting and perfect suspense are very exciting today, and they have received as much as 84 out of a rating.

In the past ten years, there are only a few criminal investigation films in the film market, such as "The Scorching Sun", "The Blizzard is Coming", "Chasing the Murderer in the Ice River", ""Big" People", etc., among which the box office of "Big" People, the highest-grossing "Big" People, is 3800 million, Deng Chao, Duan Yihong, Guo Tao co-starred in the word-of-mouth masterpiece "Scorching Sun" 30.3 billion. Criminal investigation films don't seem to have been able to continue their glory.

Hu Jianli, Secretary-General of the China Film Critics Society, said, "First, the subject matter is relatively sensitive and may involve a relatively large scale. Therefore, on the screen, the main creator faces many difficulties, which may be daunting for many creators who want to try to create films with this kind of theme. Second, so far, the box office ceiling of such films in the Chinese mainland film market is not very high. It's not like a comedy that can be produced all at once.

Two or three billion hits, it is difficult to reach one billion, and it may be a type that is not too cost-effective for creators and investors. ”

Rise. In 2023, criminal investigation films will perform well at the word-of-mouth box office.

However, in 2023, it is difficult to have a criminal investigation film in the past year, but it has sprung up in the market, and the box office reputation has achieved good results, among which "Solid as a Rock" released on the National Day file won 13With a score of 4.9 billion, he won the box office champion of the National Day file.

Why did criminal investigation films emerge this year?

In Hu Jianli's view, "This kind of film naturally has a strong dramatic conflict and can have strong suspense." Because the subject matter determines this aspect, the entire process of solving the case must take the audience to uncover the final truth. After the epidemic, filmmakers in various countries are looking for the kind of script that is particularly attractive and can attract the audience, because it has a good foundation for drama and has such story conditions. ”

Positive reviews continue. The Three Majors break the routine.

The many criminal investigation films that have been released this year have their own characteristics, and they can't help but make the audience full of expectations for the upcoming "Three Teams". The film is based on real events, and has received a lot of praise after being screened during the 36th Chinese Film Golden Rooster Awards.

This film breaks the conventional routine of Chen Sicheng's team to produce suspense and crime films, and the narrative focus is no longer on how to create and uncover suspense, but through the ups and downs of the characters' fate, they express their firm beliefs, no matter how long it takes, they must finally catch such a firm belief as **. And it's very touching, the emotional density in it is very large, and after the film is released, I recommend everyone to watch it. ”

Hu Jianli believes that only by starting from the two aspects of the attractiveness of the story and the excavation of human nature can the criminal investigation film win the recognition of the audience. The narrative innovation of "The Three Teams" also provides a good idea for the future creation of criminal investigation films.
