In 2008, Feng Xiaogang brought an unusual Chinese New Year comedy at the end of the year, which won 32.5 billion box office "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb".
To say that it is unusual is not to say that it is a "masterpiece" that has never been seen before or since, but it can tell an ordinary love story impressively in a gag comedy way, and it did surpass many domestic romantic comedies that were mired in clichés at that time.
I remember when I was a freshman in college, I had an assignment in film class to cut a two- or three-minute trailer for a theatrical movie. The movie I chose was "Do Not Disturb".
Perhaps it was this movie that led to a wave of "blind dates", and even the smash hit TV blind date show was also called "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb".
In 2011, "Do Not Disturb 2" got 4700 million box office, with a farewell to life, will add a layer of philosophical reflection to the world in addition to the comedy. And the actor Qin Fen and the heroine Liang Xiaoxiao also decided to "make a mistake and make a mistake" and get married.
The story of "Do Not Disturb 3" is set in the future in 2031, and Qin Fen is about to turn 70 years old.
In fact, as early as 2021, Xiaoxiao left Qin Fen and started his own extreme public welfare undertaking of picking up garbage all over the world.
Lao Fan, who once fell in love with Qin Fen and killed each other, is now the owner of a technology company, and his company has developed a high-IQ, high-EQ intelligent robot.
And the main story of this part is that Lao Fan gave Qin Fen a ** robot smile, and just when Qin Fen and this robot smile gradually warmed up, he really smiled back.
So a battle between three "people" and two loves started in laughter and scolding.
This work has unexpectedly become the "dogtail" of the series' word-of-mouth and box office failures, the main reason is that the sincerity is gone, the times have changed, many comedy stalks are too old-fashioned, and the expression techniques can't keep up with the new pace of development.
In fact, the lack of sincerity is not reflected in the indiscriminate use of dopamine colors, nor is it the skin of the soft science fiction concept, but the volume of the original forty or fifty-minute web drama or micro-movie, which is forced to be injected to nearly two hours long.
The most unacceptable thing about this film is that it uses a lot of film clips from the first two films.
If the first 3 minutes of the pre-story review is to let the audience who have forgotten the plot and have not watched the series understand the general content of the story as soon as possible, then the flashback passages that appear from time to time in the middle of the film can be lengthened.
In addition to Lao Fan and Jianguo, who have a trace of relevance to the main plot, the characters Wu Sang, Mango, and Chuan Chuan who appeared in the first two works have been disturbed, and even the deceased Xiangshan is also reminiscing, and a large number of fragments of the first two works have repeatedly destroyed the smoothness of the main story, which is really disgusting.
In addition, the plot of Li Chengru and Yue Yunpeng has little to do with the main story, although there is a little bit of hypocrisy of human nature, but the deletion of these two characters does not affect the development of the main story.
Many people will fall into the discussion and exploration of whether the laughter left behind is true or false after the film is over.
Not to mention that the film is trying to create an open-ended ending with an ambiguous answer, even if you find conclusive evidence to prove the truth of the smile left, in fact, it is just an overthinking that deviates from the original theme expression of the film.
The film does not bury clues in the way of suspense films, so naturally there is no possibility of reasoning along the gray line of the grass snake to determine the result.
Regardless of whether the smile left behind is true or not, the core of the film or the core of the series is sincerity and trust, sincerity and companionship.
From this point of view, I think that what remains is a real smile, a person who has finally truly understood sincerity and true love after more than ten years of life experience.
If what is left is a smirk that can satisfy all of Qin Fen's habits and needs, then wouldn't Qin Fen's more than ten years of waiting alone and the "dumpling theory" that sounded a little incomprehensible become a big lie, ridiculous?
If the characters have no sincerity, the film will lose its sincerity, and all the trust and expectations of the audience, especially the loyal viewers of the series, will become a joke.
This is not a suspense sci-fi film, but it is just using the concept of soft sci-fi to play another "trial marriage", and it isWhether my heart is still the same, whether your heart is settled.
The film is still a consistent poor joke in terms of language, occasionally breaking out one or two golden sentences, but they are all relatively cliché and outdated.
"What is missing, missing is that the temple on the high mountain is too low, and I still miss you when I sit face to face. What is worry, worry is to be afraid, afraid that you will not have a good life, afraid that you will be wronged, afraid that you will not come back. ”This passage is one of the few memorable, but compared to the dialogue with a distinct Wang Shuo style, it can only be regarded as a "little witch".
When I saw Ge You and ** break the fourth wall and express their reluctance to the "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb" series and the characters in the film in sincere and simple language, I knew that the story of Qin Fen and Liang Xiaoxiao was finally coming to an end.
I still like to believe that the end of the film is two people who have tested each other for half their lives, and finally reconcile with each other and each other, and let go of the past and the present.
With the sincerity that has not been wiped out, they let go of all kinds of uneasy and unpleasant feelings in the past, and cherish the limited time in the future even more.
In the ending easter egg, Qin Fen and Liang Xiaoxiao's ** robot "eloped" back to 2008, Qin Fen said that it was to relive their encounter.
It is both the end and the beginning, life is like this, and farewell will always be accompanied by a new journey.
And we, those who were still in college at the time of "Non 1", and are now parents, should also be the ones we said by Ge YouGuarding the touching and sincerity, and say goodbye to the feelings.
The story of "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb" is over, and the era of Chinese New Year films belonging to Feng Xiaogang has officially ended, and when welcoming a new beginning, I am looking forward to more Chinese New Year films that are at the forefront of the timesWe also need to bring that sincerity, a promise, unswerving, sincerity to old age, and do not disturb if it is not sincere.
