Frankly speaking, the number of movies in this year's Spring Festival schedule is far from meeting the audience's expectations.
Especially "Hot and Hot", the most vocal work.
Last year, Jia Ling starred in "Hello, Li Huanying", which moved the audience to tears.
Under the immature interpretation of newcomer director Jia Ling, a movie with maternal love as the core theme was presented.
There are imperfections everywhere, and this universal "maternal love" really serves the purpose of covering up all the shortcomings.
This year, Jia Ling's work "Hot and Hot" once again showed its charm in the publicity campaign.
Just Jia Ling's gimmick of successfully losing 100 pounds won the film a dominant position in the Spring Festival schedule.
At present, Jia Ling's performance at the box office has surpassed "Flying Life 2" and Zhang Yimou's "Article 20".
It's a pity that the box office performance of the movie "Hot and Hot" is overestimated without a mother's love filter.
Now, after a week of heat, the problem has finally been revealed.
Just click on the Douban comment area, and the screen is full of all kinds of complaints:
This can also have 79, everyone here is responsible".
It is recommended that you refer to the original version, which will save money, labor and time".
The kind of awkward and vulgar jokes, submissive performances, dragging beats, and stiff and unnatural twists".
Regarding the remake of the movie "Hot and Hot", where is the problem hidden? We did an in-depth dissection.
The rhythm of the plot seems to be somewhat incongruous, while the literary film is a thorough adaptation of the commercial film.
In fact, from "Hello, Li Huanying" to "Hot and Hot", we can clearly feel this.
As a director, Jia Ling's skills have significantly enhanced. Many scenes in the movie are filled with a strong literary atmosphere.
When Jia Ling's Le Ying encounters setbacks in her life, the scene of walking up the stairs gives people a feeling of being surrounded by loneliness.
That feeling of being abandoned by the world.
As Le Ying goes through the process of self-transformation, every shot she steps out of the room is a slow movement.
When she greeted her past self, she really felt a special atmosphere as if she had come from another era.
Although "Hot and Hot" successfully strengthened the artistic and literary atmosphere, it was unfortunately shaped from the perspective of the actors.
Whether it is the progress of the plot, the presentation of emotions, or the performance of the box office, the word "business" has been given a heavier connotation.
Literary films in commercial cinema have undergone a huge transformation, and this transformation is particularly prominent from the beginning to the end.
Many of the preserved artistic shots look too lengthy and tedious in the film, and sitting in the cinema, the only feeling is that:
Is this corridor really that long? Walked for such a long time", "Can't the picture of climbing the stairs be cut?" ”
I must admit that, despite the delicate cinematography of the female director, the performance of "Hot and Hot" became lengthy and unpleasant.
The main reason for this phenomenon is that the plot depth of the work "Hot and Hot" is relatively weak.
The main plot of the story is not clear enough and lacks appeal.
Flying Life 2 is a work that depicts the return of a failed racer to the racing field.
Most of the film's footage is in preparation for Bayingbrook's game.
In the process of preparation, the protagonist of the story gradually feels the fear of customer service.
In the movie "Article 20", the case of He Xiuping's husband becomes the central plot, and many scenes in the film are aimed at finding evidence.
In the process of searching for evidence, the protagonist of the story gradually regained the original intention of the prosecutor, and shifted from the initial defensive behavior to the legitimate defense of the lawsuit.
However, when we look back at "Hot and Hot", we are confused from beginning to end, and the protagonist seems to have no goals and pursuits.
Suddenly, he fell into an inexplicable love affair and developed a strong interest in boxing, but the direction of the plot does not seem so clear-cut and lacks clear logic.
The character's growth trajectory is not gradual, on the contrary, it appears abrupt but lacks stable support.
The movie shows the story of women's growth that Jia Ling wants to convey.
However, the plot that supports this view appears too weak.
In many cases, "Hot and Hot" is more like an inspirational music video full of humorous elements.
It is a better choice to put Jia Ling's personal ** log directly into the attraction of the plot.
Frankly, Jia Ling is trying to adapt the original "100 Yuan Love" movie into a commercial film in the hope of achieving better results.
We need to enhance the storyline of the original version, but judging by the current situation.
Although "Hot and Hot" has done an excellent job in publicity and business, it does not have much competitive advantage in the plot design of the Spring Festival schedule.
The style of the performance seems a bit cowardly, and the overall layout is a bit narrow.
When you revisit the version of "100 Dollars of Love", you will find something.
In fact, the original version did not focus the plot on the relationship between men and women, and "Hot and Hot" amplified the topic of women.
Today, the direction of publicity has undergone a complete shift, from the story of ordinary people to the story of women.
It's not because the women's storylines are poor, it's because their perspective is too sad.
Women's stories should show more of women's strength, not the suffering they endure.
In the original version, despite the decadent, dashing and dejected acting style of the main character, he still exudes an indescribable personal charm.
In the remakeable work, the protagonist Le Ying becomes a victim.
He became a victim of family relationships.
In love, he is a victim.
Being a victim of sexual harassment in the workplace.
He even fell victim to the exploitation of relatives and friends.
She is always obedient, doesn't know how to fight back, and always whispers.
It's like hob meat.,I'm not promising.,The character is also very fragile.,I can't stand my sister's truth at the dinner table.。
I just want to ask about the people who have raised me in my family for 10 years, and they neither work nor earn money.
She basks in the sun every day, and despite a few words, she doesn't seem to have any excuse to cry for the funeral?
Compared to the pain that Le Ying endured in the play, what is more heart-wrenching are those who are off the screen.
He spent an expensive ticket price to go to the cinema, but in the end he could only helplessly watch Jia Ling give him a bright little red flower.
Although it was not comforted, it was influenced by yin and yang.
Besides, I really don't understand why Jia Ling has so many performances in this film.
This kind of weak attitude is not worth it in the early stage, but in the later stage, one punch is enough to make one me pay.
Despite this, she still appeared listless, unable to open her mouth to speak, or to lift her head.
This line sounds like the cry of a mosquito, do we mean that if you don't consume carbs, you will be so depressed?
Regarding Jia Ling's predicament, Wu Jingquan's description is accurate.
In the past two years, the inflated box office of domestic films has become more and more prominent.
Large-scale films like "The Wandering Earth", "Changjin Lake" and "Fengshen" have fully demonstrated the high standards of their industrial production.
It's also understandable to get billions at the box office.
However, low-budget productions like "Hello, Lee Hwan Young" and "Hot and Hot" are not cost-effective just to make billions at the box office.
This state of the market clearly reveals a core problem, which is that box office performance is not the same thing as film quality.
There was a time when Wu Jing, as a director, also passed a similar career peak to Jia Ling.
The "Wolf Warrior" series he starred in achieved excellent results at the box office.
However, relying solely on word-of-mouth performances can maintain a standard of up to 7 points.
The film's acclaim is largely due to the passionate and patriotic support of fans.
Wu Jing also mentioned this in an interview:
Just because the box office is high doesn't mean that an individual will perform well."
When Wolf Warrior won the championship in Chinese box office history, what was Wu Jing's concern.
My personal knowledge and experience have not kept up with the times."
Frankly, the depth of the film is insufficient.
Now, what Jia Ling is facing is exactly what Wu Jing has been like in the past.
A work called "Hello, Li Huanying" has survived, and the problems of another work called "Hot and Hot" have gradually been exposed.
Recent news revealed that preparations have been made for Jia Ling's new film, and some of the works have already begun to be filmed.
* This gimmick has passed, and the affection of maternal love has faded.
As a female director with the most commercial potential, it is really difficult to accept relying on remakes to increase the box office.
Remakes always work out like this, and as for how the next film will perform, it really raises deep questions.
Ultimately, what is your opinion on the movie "Hot and Hot"?
The movie is hot and piping hot
