The competition in the Spring Festival film market is fierce, especially the battle of the three comedy-themed films, which is in full swing.
originally thought that the box office would be monopolized by comedy giants Jia Ling and Shen Teng, but I didn't expect that the "national teacher" Zhang Yimou also wanted to get a piece of the pie.
The cumulative box office of the movie "Article 20" has exceeded 1.2 billion, and the total box office in the mainland is expected to reach 2.4 billion.
Although this result is inferior to the other two popular films, and there is a huge gap with Zhang Yimou's "Man Jianghong" during last year's Spring Festival, it still shows its strong market competitiveness.
I have to admit that "Article 20" is an underrated masterpiece.
There are frequent jokes in the film, which is hilarious.
The tear spots are cleverly set and deeply moving. The theme of the ending part is sublimated and thought-provoking.
The only drawback is that due to the addition of rule of law elements, some viewers mistakenly think that the film is too heavy and depressing.
Zhang Yimou's face is really big, and his movies bring together a visual emperor and an actor.
When they are playing on stage, they can really understand what talent is and acting skills after graduating from a professional class.
As far as the Spring Festival stalls are concerned, the biggest winner is undoubtedly Lei Jiayin, an actor who graduated from a professional class.
Whether it is the box office leader "Hot and Hot" or Zhang Yimou's latest masterpiece "Article 20", Lei Jiayin was chosen as the leading actor, which fully reflects the film industry's recognition of Lei Jiayin's acting strength.
Although he graduated from the Performance Department of Shanghai Theater Academy, Lei Jiayin's appearance is not outstanding, but his performance is full of life.
Lei Jiayin has profound attainments in acting, and no matter what role he plays, he can get into the wood and avoid facialization.
He has won the Magnolia and Golden Eagle trophies, which is a high affirmation of his acting skills.
In "Article 20", his performance is once again shocking.
Han Ming, played by him, hunched over and sweating after a few steps, skillfully shows the sophistication of the workplace, which is breathtaking.
As soon as he appears, the character will naturally have a sense of realism in life, showing his unique performance charm.
When Han Ming suffered a little grievance outside, he thought about going home to be coquettish with his daughter-in-law, finding an excuse to lie on her lap for a while, and enjoy the feeling of being loved.
The couple had just reached a brief harmony, but they began to quarrel again, which made people laugh out loud and think of their parents, and their behavior was exactly the same.
In the climax of the film, Han Ming decides to give up on self-preservation and stand up for those who have been treated unfairly.
From the initial hesitation, to the courage to express one's opinion, to the passionate speech, a speech is powerful and powerful.
There is no doubt about this kind of professional-level acting skills.
A crime pollutes a river, and a wrongful conviction pollutes an entire water source. ”
Where does the authority of the law come from? From the people's most genuine emotional expectations! ”
Before I knew it, I was in tears in front of the screen.
We seem to have forgotten the "big head" outside the play and the "boxing coach Haokun" in the movie next door, and replaced it with the righteous prosecutor Han Ming in our hearts.
This is the charm of "face-changing" acting, Lei Jiayin has proved the plasticity of professional actors with practical actions.
The situation of another big name in the film industry is a little difficult.
Although Zhang Yi has the acting skills of appreciating food all the time, he is known as an actor-level actor in the film industry and is deeply loved by the audience.
However, in recent years, the film and television dramas starring Zhang Yi have performed averagely, and they have even been stolen from the limelight by the second male and supporting actors, which is a phenomenon worthy of attention.
When Zhang Yi plays a supporting role, he sometimes shines because of his personality, such as He Li in "Man Jianghong" and Director Zhang in "Article 20".
Although his acting style has its limitations, he has a strong ability to characterize and can show a unique personality no matter what role he plays.
In "Article 20", Director Zhang played by him is not a bad person, but he is too principled and conceited, which is impressive.
Under Zhang Yi's superb interpretation, the image of a school director was vividly displayed.
His demeanor was as majestic as that of the head of the prosecutor's office, and it even made people feel that he didn't even care about the prosecutor.
Is this kind of character setting too exaggerated?
Zhang Yi has been fond of crooked mouth performance for a long time, and even deliberately designed an action in the performance that causes the corners of his mouth to twitch because of anger, which undoubtedly adds a comedic effect to the character, but this way of performing is slightly deliberate.
When he was on the same stage, he was not bound by the slightest shot, showing his true sense of life.
In the eyes of the audience, he will always be the star Zhang Yi, not Director Zhang in front of the camera.
Although he is also from a non-professional background, Zhang Yi is obviously loved by God.
Zhang Yi has had a dream since he was a child, that is, to become an announcer.
However, this dream did not come true because he did not pass the exam. Later, he unexpectedly fell in love with drama and joined the Beijing Comrades-in-Arms Repertory Troupe.
From that moment on, he put on a military uniform and began his own acting career.
Although his facial features are not as good as Lei Jiayin, he just caught up with the boom of military themes and won the appreciation of the director of "Soldier Assault".
By virtue of"Shi Jin"This character became famous in one fell swoop, and it really came and went, and it seemed that even God was helping him to succeed.
Later, he won the Grand Slam actor, which can be said to be smooth sailing and did not live up to these opportunities.
Zhang Yi's reputation has declined in recent years, because the competition in the Mesozoic actor market is fierce, and the actors are fighting for strength.
In "Hurricane", Zhang Yi felt powerless for the first time, no matter how hard he performed, it was difficult to surpass Zhang Songwen, who was born in a professional class, and finally lost all his face.
In "Article 20", he met Lei Jiayin again, who graduated from the play, Lei Jiayin not only has a deep foundation in lines, but also has a sense of humor, and his performance is vivid and delicate, without any sense of distance.
In comparison, Zhang Yi's performance seems a little mediocre, this is indeed a gap.
Which is more important, the strength of the actor or the award?
Zhang Yi has won many actor awards with his strength, but even if God appreciates food, he is not as good as an actor from a professional class who can touch the hearts of the audience.
Awards are a recognition, but they do not represent the whole of the actor.
A really good actor should be able to penetrate into the hearts of the people. Lei Jiayin is such an actor.
In the movie "Article 20", he is steady and steady, whether it is a laugh or a tearful plot, he can perform it vividly.
This year, he is expected to hit the acting awards in the film industry, and his strength deserves a trophy for an actor.
The film is currently in theaters, and the box office is rising rapidly, and it is possible to achieve a turnaround.
Let's wait and see.
