"Article 20" is really worth chasing! experienced a reversal in word-of-mouth at the box office, and finally ushered in a virtuous circle of word-of-mouth feedback for this movie.
At the beginning of the publicity, the focus was on Zhao Liying, who was obviously in the style of family ethics comedy, and the beginning of the propaganda was in a miserable state, which once made everyone feel that anyone would watch such a realistic movie during the Chinese New Year, but those who really watched this movie will understand.
Who is the soul of this movie? Why is this movie worth repeating**?
In addition to discussing reality and educational significance for righteousness and courage and "legitimate defense", this drama "Article 20" does not preach, but through the real events of several little people, a little bit of foreshadowing, which is reasonable and enjoyable.
Zhao Liying plays the powerless struggle of the disabled, and Zhao Liying leaves her appearance halo to play such a "marginal person in society", which is a surprise.
But Article 20The biggest surprise was given by the "husband and wife" of Lei Jiayin and Ma Li
Because everyone is equal before the law, the prosecutor Han Ming played by Lei Jiayin and the housewife Li Maojuan played by Ma Li beat the other party for the sake of their son to stop the bully, which triggered a series of stories, one is a person who understands the law for 20 years, and the other is a person who does not understand the law and dares to give up everything for his son.
Ordinary and real family life is noisy and noisy every day, but it is warm and humorous from time to time, it seems to be trivial and complicated, but it is warm and contagious, how does the "power of home" break through the shackles of reality, finally find justice, and move forward? is the most brilliant part of this movie, plain and powerful, family affairs, because of emotional bonds, have different ideas, and also test the tacit understanding and acting skills of the two people.
The following contains spoilers, be careful**
The reason why Lei Jiayin was able to play this role, in fact, I didn't expect it, but I just told Director Zhang Yimou that as long as Director Zhang can let him star in the movie, he can play any role, even if it is a small role.
Unexpectedly, this time in "Article 20", Lei Jiayin became the leading actor, this prosecutor who looks a little "decadent" and a little "sleek", in the face of major rights and wrongs, still sticks to his principles, and after handling the case and having such a thing with his son, he finally found himself after regaining his original intention.
In the movie, Han Ming plays Han Ming, in order for his son to be admitted to a class A university, he chose a secondment, but what he didn't expect was that as a newly transferred prosecutor, because of his colleague's "axis", he was ordered to solve the case of "Hao Xiuping and Wang Yongqiang" in danger, he could understand the priorities and solve certain problems, and Deputy Prosecutor Tian asked him to also assist Gao Ye and Lu Lingling in handling the case.
He is a reconciled person, and even a little "tactful", but Lei Jiayin treats middle-aged men as a career, sometimes neglecting the family, he will weigh the pros and cons in his career, and he has no skills at home, and he has also been in order to provide for the so-called breadwinner, and those who can avoid risks will be avoided.
He looked at the relationship at work like a mirror in his heart, but for the sake of his family, he chose to hide or even hide, but when the core of the case finally came, especially when Lu Lingling woke up herself, he found himself, Lei Jiayin looked at a very ordinary public official this time, for the sake of fairness and justice, he would also be brave, and he really saw that the end was particularly burning, and the Han Ming portrayed by Lei Jiayin this time was also very fresh and full.
Let's talk about the heroine Ma Li, Ma Li is worthy of being the "big heroine" of comedy movies, and her Ma Dongmei played in "Charlotte Troubles" starring Shen Teng is really laughing with tears.
And this time, Li Maojuan, a housewife played by Ma Li, gives people a different feeling. She doesn't know much about the law, but for her son, he affirms his son's behavior, but after her son injured the campus bully, the school bully's father was not easy to provoke, she was afraid that her son would be wronged at first, and she was even more afraid that her son's college entrance examination would be affected, so she chose to back down.
Later, in the wine game, Ma Li excitedly broke the cup, she was also panicked, but "for the mother and for the rigid", she chose to toast with forbearance first, how do you know that the other party will not let go at all, she can no longer sit still as a mother, obviously her son is righteous and brave, why is he relied on by such a person.
Ma Li is really the most unexpected and reasonable look in the movie, and then went to the police station, "This is definitely not a dream", hahaha It's funny to think about it now.
Ma Li doesn't understand the law, but what's wrong with doing justice? She doesn't want her son to be wronged, but if her son hits someone and the other party is injured, isn't it wrong for the other party to bully? Why is it justified.
Ma Li can be said to represent the psychology of the public, in the psychology of the public, why should she be treated like this when she is doing the right thing? Ma Li can be said to be quite expressive and resonate with everyone
The two of them are inexplicably happy together, and the two run there for their son together, hahaha inexplicable tacit understanding. The two of them are running around for their son's affairs, and Han Ming puts aside his identity as a prosecutor, but he is just an ordinary person.
In order to fight wits and courage for the first love, Lei Jiayin wanted to ask a colleague to rub the massage chair alone, but he didn't expect that his wife was nearby, a man and a woman, so that his wife guessed that something was wrong.
Lei Jiayin couldn't help but talk about the past, his wife found out that something was wrong, Lei Jiayin found out about his wife, and pretended to praise his wife, this paragraph seems simple, but the two powerful factions cooperate very tacitly, the old husband and wife are not fresh, and the wife who suspects that there is a junior is immediately unhappy.
Lei Jiayin was outside to cooperate with the investigation of the case, who knew that his scalp was bruised, originally for the sake of his son's affairs, the two of them were still noisy, how did he know that he was injured and went home, Ma Li put down the knife in his hand to cut vegetables, her husband's small combo of pretending to be sick and coquettish and his wife's complaint was distressed and anxious, and the two were unhappy again, and now they are as sweet as ever.
Lei Jiayin and Ma Li are in the same frame, too relaxed, ordinary life moments, life stumbles, but because they care about each other and are full of fireworks, this "parental love" is really sweet, so good!
Ma Li is really handsome in the famous scene of the wine game, because she also wants to make peace in private, but the other party is not reluctant, she can toast but can't lose the momentum.
She was also very scared, she broke the cup in excitement, Lei Jiayin, as a husband, consciously cleaned up the mess, usually noisy, but they all put each other in their hearts, and their subconscious actions were full of details.
Han Ming, played by Lei Jiayin, usually handles the relationship with leaders and colleagues, and responds to various emergencies "smoothly", but on this occasion he still puts his wife first, a typical husband who is "afraid of his wife".
Ma Li even pushed the other party for the sake of her son's innocence, this piece of laughter was pumped, and things finally took a turn for the better, who knew that Ma Li had to pay a certain price, but by making people cry and laugh, Ma Li's humor really couldn't stop.
The high-profile voice in the hearing can be said to be the highlight moment of Han Ming played by Lei Jiayin.
The son's words: "Dad, a legal worker for 20 years, is not as good as my mother." Although it was a bit ridiculous in the face of reality, Han Ming finally said something touching through his true feelings about this time.
"It is the principle of heaven, the law of the country, and the human feelings, and responds to the simple emotions of every ordinary person with real fairness, so that everyone understands this matter, the law is to make the bad guys commit crimes more expensive, and the cost of not letting the good guys shoot is greater, and the law cannot give in to the lawless. ”This is so burning, the touching speech of Han Ming played by Lei Jiayin is too shocking! Lei Jiayin's progressive emotional expression is also particularly infectious. Inject sonorous power into this film.
