"Hot and Hot" I gave it a full score x5).
One point to Jia Ling**.
One point to Le Ying boxing.
One point for the story.
The last point goes to the movie box office.
This is Jia Ling's second directorial work, compared to the previous "Hello Li Huanying", the ability to tell the story is a little better - but not so good, although it has gotten rid of the style of sketch movies, some flipped jokes in the story are basically expected, and in general, the presentation of the whole movie is not so advanced. This is also the biggest reason why it doesn't get a 5.
Before the official release of the movie, many people in the industry and movie lovers criticized this ** remake of the Japanese movie "100 Yuan Love". I haven't seen the original version, so I was somewhat affected before watching the movie, and I would have some colored eyes to watch it, but when I watched it, the feeling and the feeling before I didn't watch it are two different things.
Even the official did not shy away from it, "Hot and Hot" is also known as "China's version of 100 Yuan Love" and "Yolo" (You Only Live Once, which appears repeatedly in movies).
I believe that the vast majority of people have not seen the original version like me, which is also the basis of the high box office of "Hot and Hot": the heroine changes her body type, and the story of self-proof value is shown to the Chinese audience through Jia Ling's extremely obvious ** effect, this kind of visual and emotional impact may be the first time that many viewers feel it on the screen.
It can be seen from the movie that Jia Ling deliberately gained weight and pretended to be ugly before, nearly 100 pounds in 10 months, close to a rubber man, and the first thing that came to my mind was Christian Bale - the latter is of course stronger and more dedicated, but as a female actor, Jia Ling has indeed done what many male actors have not done. That's a point.
Let's talk about Le Ying**, in fact, this ** is not about how it is, but the story of the little people's self-proof value. There is no light in Le Ying's life, even her relatives are trying to use her, her boyfriend and best friend ran away, her cousin used her job to become a regular, and what is a little funny is that in the end, she couldn't stand all this and wanted to jump off the building, but the fat on her body became a life-saving buffer, and some exaggerated techniques were used in the movie There is no injury at all.
The character of Le Ying is the shadow of many people in desperate situations in real life, but Le Ying proved herself through boxing and became a better version of herself - and a professional boxer (played by boxer Zhang Guiling) fought all over the court, she lost in the ring, but won in her heart. In fact, I feel a little distracted when I see this, is this considered the spirit of Ah Q? After a pause, I wanted to smack my ears. Not to mention amateur and professional boxing, Le Ying gained confidence, happiness and a healthy body in the process of learning boxing, which is already a victory.
The core of the story of "Hot and Hot" is also very simple, it is inspirational, it is to live yourself. The story of the little people resonates with the audience the most. What's more, Le Ying Jia Ling has done what many people want to do but are difficult to do.
In fact, there are countless similar stories in the history of film. However, if you can come up with a real guy and put **, inspirational, female, boxing and other elements together, it seems that "Hot and Hot" is the first. Jia Ling** was successful, gaining the box office of the movie, word of mouth, and commercial resources that could not be received in the past, which was even more successful for her personally and the company's team.
Oh, I didn't say why I deducted a point. The name "Hot and Hot" is too down-to-earth, and one point has to be deducted.
Off topic: Jia Ling's body type.
When Jia Ling and Bai Kainan debuted, many people witnessed it together. Jia Ling is thinner now than she was then, and it seems that Jia Ling has gained weight since then.
Some people say that Jia Ling is fat because she is sick, because she is taking medicine*** and so on. We won't delve into the reasons for the time being, but later some people said that Jia Ling maintained such a fat body shape in order to maintain a comedy image, and she had a burden to shake.
I can't agree with this statement, doing comedy itself is not directly related to body type. Health is the best.
