Many people did not expect such an ending.
Zhang Yimou's new film is popular again.
And it's still not a pure Chinese New Year film.
The domestic realistic film "Article 20" will be released during the Spring Festival, and according to the latest professional platform**, the final box office of "Article 20" may reach 2.3 billion, which is a very unexpected number.
Before the start of this year's Chinese New Year, including friends around me, many people did not think much of Zhang Yimou's movie "Article 20", thinking that this movie was not a comedy movie, the theme of realism, people don't like to watch it during the New Year's holidays, who doesn't want to be happy after the Spring Festival!
As a result, many netizens look down on "Article 20" and Zhang Yimou's commercial movies, thinking that Zhang Yimou may fall behind this year.
However, you can also see the real situation, Zhang Yimou's "Article 20" is not only outdated, but the box office data has been declining against the trend for several days.
As of the 6th day of release, the film has shown a trend of overtaking, and it seems that it will be the first dark horse in 2024.
And more importantly, Zhang Yimou's movie "Article 20" is not just loved by the audience. The people also took the initiative to interview the Supreme People's Procuratorate and published an article to publicly praise it.
Article 20 has made a balanced search for fairness and justice from the aspects of emotion and reason, public order and good customs, and laws and regulations, and has found the true answer to fairness and justice in the hearts of the people.
I was deeply impressed by the fact that the Supreme People's Procuratorate applied it to the purpose of judicial officers handling cases based on the theme of the film.
We are not dealing with cases, but with the lives of others.
Reading the whole text, it can be said that the words are sharp, and one sentence breaks the hearts of the audience, causing a strong response and instant empathy from people.
So how can Zhang Yimou treat him like this in "Article 20"? Achieving such a high reputation?
I think the four major advantages of this movie are a very important reason. I'm going to talk to you about it.
1: Extraordinary significance.
If you want to come to something else, maybe a publicity gimmick will come, or how bizarre the story is and how dense the joke is.
Either it's how strong the cast is, how solid and eye-catching the actors' acting skills are. And this "Article 20" is first of all the title of the film is extraordinary and the meaning is extraordinary.
I'm sure that for those viewers who don't know much about the film, the title of the film will be confused at first glance and why it is so named.
What is its moral meaning? At first glance, it looks a little dazed.
However, with only a little knowledge or understanding of the law, you can understand the meaning of the title in an instant.
Indeed, the title of the film "Article 20" actually refers to Article 20 of the Criminal Law of the People's Republic of China, which is mainly a legal interpretation of the concept of "legitimate defense".
In all fairness, I don't know much about the law, but I know that for most ordinary people, I am afraid that in ordinary days, I will not encounter too many legal problems.
But as soon as the words "justifiable defense" come out, you will feel that you are much closer to the law in an instant.
Why? Because, in real life, although we ourselves act in accordance with the law, we cannot withstand the infringement of some lawbreakers, and we infringe on ourselves and others.
In the face of such a situation, how to correctly protect oneself, how to defend oneself, how to act bravely, and how to help others are more important.
In some cases, it's not just about how to ensure that one's own life and property are not violated, but also how to ensure the safety of others' lives and property. More importantly, it is more important to inspire the people, promote social righteousness, and encourage righteousness and courage!
After watching "Article 20", my favorite film said good things to all the audience through the mouths of the characters.
What is law? It is the law of heaven, the law of the country, and the affection of people.
I don't believe that there is no reason for the law of the country; I don't believe in the human principle."
The law is to make it difficult for bad people to commit crimes, and not to have good people do it.
As soon as these words came out, to be honest, I couldn't hide my excitement, and I didn't mean to choke on words, and I let tears flow when the New Year came.
Who can't cry when it's the New Year?
Who said they would watch comedy after the New Year?
I think that those films that touch people's hearts, those that focus on ordinary people, those that are down-to-earth, and those that are full of fireworks are excellent films under any circumstances.
It is no exaggeration to say that this is the most popular domestic movie for the audience at present, and it is also the domestic movie that the audience is most eager to watch.
2: The plot is fast-paced, and there is no feeling of dragging mud and water.
Of course, the focus on realistic themes is also the right choice of theme in Article 20. But it takes a lot of effort to really win the love of the audience. Failure to do so will only lead to stereotyping and unwelcome from the audience.
What is the most taboo and annoying place for the audience in the process of watching the movie?
Is it water injection?
Some movies choose a very good subject story, but when telling the story, it often drags and drags, resulting in a long time when telling the story and not being able to get into the theme.
For another example, in order to lay out some irrelevant story lines, there are emotional scenes that are not matched, which makes the whole film feel long and procrastinating.
And the most prominent advantage of the film "Article 20" is actually the brisk pace of the plot, and there is no suspicion of dragging mud and water.
After watching this 141-minute film, if you want to ask me what is the most intuitive view, I will say that it is a light-paced and clean film.
Throughout the film, there are not only scenes that make me laugh and tears, but also dramatic conflicts that make me cry.
At the same time, more importantly, I watched it for more than 2 hours in a row, and I kept following the plot without getting distracted at all.
This "Article 20", in cliché words, is really no urine in the whole process, and seeing the ending makes people feel unfinished.
The protagonist of the movie is Han Ming (played by Lei Jiayin), starting with the case of his son's beating, and then leading to school bullying.
Then, starting with Han Ming's attitude towards his son's quarrel, the main plot of the whole film was introduced.
Start with life and then move up to work. Then, the work content is progressive, peeling off the cocoon, starting from the simple facts of the case, and exploring the deep-seated human feelings and legal principles step by step, which is thought-provoking.
The whole film, the problem of family education, school bullying, social fairness and justice, and the problem of vulnerable groups.
Finally, the multi-line narrative focuses on the problem of "legitimate defense". On the surface, the dramatic conflicts are a little scattered, but in fact, the plot is compact and the core is aggregated, and the same social issues are framed in different cases.
In the face of the victims, whether to help or not, to save or not to help, and to help or not to help those who need help.
In this, each case mentioned is actually a situation that we ordinary people are very likely to encounter in their lives.
Article 20" The whole film narrates serious fairness and justice in a comedic tone, which is both vivid and touching. "Article 20" has both problems and solutions, which is the real reason why the film came out of the circle.
3: Online full acting skills.
The plot story is inseparable from the acting skills of the actors.
Article 20 starring Lei Jiayin, Ma Li, Gao Ye, Wang Xiao, Zhang Yi, Yu Hewei, Fan Wei, Pan Binlong, Chen Minghao, Xu Yajun, Li Naiwen. starring and supporting roles, nearly 20 well-known actors helped.
is not only a well-known actor, but also a veritable actor with powerful acting skills. After watching the whole film, it is not an exaggeration to describe it with the acting skills of all the members.
Even the young actor Liu Yaowen, who plays the role of Han Yuchen, the son of Han Ming, is also commendable in his performance, with many highlight shots.
And among many actors, you will ask me whose acting skills have left the deepest impression on me, and I will definitely choose Hao Xiuping played by Zhao Liying.
Good guy, I have watched the trailer of "Article 20" before, and I think that Zhao Liying may be in the film, but she is just a small supporting role and a trick.
The show party let go just to get the next attention.
However, in the ** feature film, Zhao Liying's acting skills can be said to directly refresh people's understanding of her.
She, a former national idol, a beautiful woman, and a vulnerable woman who plays a migrant worker, would never have imagined that she looked so similar. A mouth and a few words can show her line skills.
A crying scene under excitement and panic is also eye-catching.
Before, I watched "Happiness to Ten Thousand Homes", and the rural women she played in the play made people feel more or less tight. And in this "Article 20", the overall realm seems to be extremely relaxed.
In the TV series "Article 20", Lei Jiayin successfully completed his task, while Zhao Liying added a lot to the show and brought unexpected benefits to the audience.
Four: Zhang Yimou.
After reading this sentence, do you have a lot of viewers to say? Is Zhang Yimou also the strength of the film?
Yes, in contrast, the most eye-catching advantage is Zhang Yimou, which is particularly prominent in Article 20.
Why? It's because of influence!
Zhang Yimou not only directed "Article 20", but also one of the well-known directors in the country. The film he directed attracted enough eyeballs the moment the film started.
This is naturally Zhang Yimou's strength.
And because of this, it is more appropriate for stories like "Article 20" to be filmed by Zhang Yimou.
In addition, it was the appearance of Zhang Yimou that made "Article 20" dare to be broadcast during the Spring Festival, and it was completely unaffected by competition.
A good script requires a good director to show his charm, and it is obvious that Zhang Yimou succeeded again this time.
After watching "Article 20", what I feel most deeply in the whole film is empathy, following the joys and sorrows of the characters in the film.
Even though it's only a little over two hours long, it feels like you've spent most of your life. Looking back, it is still very clear that the ** has passed by one by one.
Many years ago, Zhang Yimou's book "Qiu Ju Fights a Lawsuit" was filmed in the hearts of the audience, and many years later, "Article 20" was taken out, which was equally resonant.
The pursuit of fairness and justice shown in the film reflects the public's most simple yearning for life.
Good people have good retribution, and ** people must be punished.
I am confident that after the completion of Article 20, all viewers will be able to find similarities in their daily lives. And it may well be able to help somewhat, and perhaps that's the true meaning of Article 20!
Conclusion: On the whole, the four advantages of Article 20 are superimposed, coupled with the strong support of the audience, it is really difficult to think about it!
Again, I recommend to you this Article 20. If you haven't read it yet, I highly recommend you give it a try, and when you're done, thank you again.
