"The law cannot give in to the lawless! ”
Does it feel familiar to see this sentence, this is the line in "Article 20", the first box office of the New Year's stalls.
So far, the box office of this movie is still **, not only surpassing the most popular "Hot and Hot" during the Spring Festival to win the weekly championship, but even the box office has soared to 2.6 billion!
For this kind of crime and law popularization type movie, most viewers will not choose to watch it on the New Year, but this "Article 20" breaks the rules.
Except for a few days before the premiere, which lagged behind "Flying Life 2" and "Hot and Hot" due to problems such as publicity and film scheduling, the film has been soaring all the way since then, sitting firmly on the box office champion for ten consecutive days, and the number of moviegoers has reached new highs.
So just how charming is this movie that can appeal to the audience so much?
This film is mainly a realistic film created with justifiable defense as the hot spot, and the reason why it is called Article 20 is because the provisions on justifiable defense are mentioned in Article 20 of China's Criminal Law.
In our lives, there will always be all kinds of unfair treatment, in fact, the world is far darker than you think, this movie shows all the violence in life on the big screen, making people watch both heart-wrenching and depressing.
We are now moviegoers, and we can't believe how desperate we would be if we were the parties or bystanders.
Among the many movies, there are actually very few movies with this kind of theme, because he is too close to society and too real and cruel, so few people dare to make them.
But director Zhang Yimou is different, he shoots boldly and straightforwardly, presenting all the underworld forces in life on the big screen, which makes us more intuitively understand the helplessness of the parties.
Of course, if you think this is a completely sad movie, then you are very wrong, in fact, this "Article 20" also contains a lot of comedy scenes, and director Zhang Yimou used light comedy to deduce this movie in the opposite way.
Like Zhao Liying and Pan Binlong, they didn't know that this movie was a comedy until the trailer was released. They were tragic all the time)
Compared with "Hot and Hot", which has a good box office but a very poor reputation, it can be said that Jia Ling really occupied the hot search of the entire Spring Festival file, and losing 100 pounds is indeed an admirable thing.
However, due to excessive publicity, many viewers were disgusted, and after watching it, they found that this drama was just like that. I'm afraid it will be difficult to have such a high box office next time.
"Flying Life 2" is quite enthusiastic, the plot is more attractive than the first one in all aspects, and it can be regarded as a fulfillment of the protagonist "Bayinbrook's dream", it can be said that this year's Spring Festival stalls are different, not to mention no industrial blockbusters, they are almost all comedies.
Only "Article 20" is a movie that makes the theater audience cry and laugh when it is happy and sad, and it is also a movie that makes ordinary people learn about science, just like Zhang Yimou's "Man Jianghong" last year, he didn't evaluate the movie first, but said that many people knew that Yue Fei's "Man Jianghong" was a success!
In addition to publicity, a good movie is indispensable for the plot and actors, and the film is starring Zhao Liying, Ma Li, Lei Jiayin, Gao Ye, Zhang Yi, etc.The cast of this film is extremely strong, and the audience will be shocked when they see it: "He's in there too!" ”
Needless to say, the acting skills of this group of actors are powerful, and the roles they play are very distinctive, I have to say, it's really cool to watch a bunch of old dramas!
For this movie, many people said that "the whole film is basically highlighting the power of men", "it's messy, messy and noisy, it's just too noisy", "it just conveys the spirit of the rule of law and uses a few realistic cases".
Someone asked what was the significance of Zhang Yimou's arrangement of Hao Xiuping's disheveled shots in "Article 20", and I particularly liked the sentence that was then commented on:"She's desperate to kill herself, and you're paying attention to her disheveled. ”
In ** movie, many people will think about what I would do if I were Xiuping, how to protect myself, but when I think about it, I will find that there is no way at all, except despair or despair.
In this society, the weak voice still has no power after all, I hope that the society can be more kind and righteous, everyone can help each other, and give the weak a little more hope.
Fortunately, there is justice and law in the world, and the ending is quite happy except for the bus driver.
This movie tells us that when we encounter illegal infringements, we must dare to fight, and we also know that ordinary people can have the confidence to defend our human rights, and bystanders can no longer stand by coldly when they see it, and bravely make a difference.
Of course, in addition to the attractive theme of the plot, the choice of screen time is also very important.
We all know that the selection of movie screenings is very advantageous in various festivals, first of all, most people will choose to go out to relax, go shopping, eat and watch movies during these holidays.
At this time, if your movie is slightly famous, it will attract many people**.
Secondly, as a traditional festival in my country, the Spring Festival, this kind of Chinese New Year movie has received the public's expectations, after all, it is an annual movie-watching moment, and major film companies will definitely hope to launch their masterpieces at this time to attract customers.
In the film market, all movies have the potential to become high box office, but time alone is certainly far from enough, only the quality of the film itself is excellent, in order to successfully remain in people's hearts and become a classic.
The three giants of the Spring Festival in 2024 are Zhang Yimou, Jia Ling and Shen Teng, these three movies can be said to have their own characteristics, and they all left a deep impression on the audience.
Speaking of this "Article 20", in fact, he has no particularly outstanding points, you say that it is particularly funny, and you don't say that it is particularly touching, but it has rushed to the box office of 2.6 billion.
At the beginning, the popularity of this movie was not even as good as "Bear Infested: Reversal of Time and Space", but with more and more people watching the movie, the promotion of the promotional film and people's word of mouth, everyone began to take the initiative to buy tickets to watch this movie.
I don't know if I don't know it, I was startled when I saw it, although it seemed more depressing to watch this "Article 20" during the Spring Festival, but after watching it, I found that it was really worth watching, so people seemed to have forgotten the theme of this movie.
Article 20" This movie can be said to have depth, thickness, height, scale, tears and laughter, and can give the audience a perfect experience from all levels, I have to say that Zhang Yimou really knows how to shoot.
Judging from so many movies directed by Zhang Yimou, whether it is ideologically or aesthetically, he can firmly grasp the taste of the public, Zhang Yimou's success has never relied on luck, but on real directing and acting.
In fact, after watching so many directors' movies, I feel that only Zhang Yimou's movies have gone deep into the ** society from the beginning, and they have never changed for so many years.
Although the theme of the film is close to human nature every time, it can be novel every time and give the audience a different feeling every time.
Zhang Yimou did not use official language to explain the truth, but integrated every esoteric into the lives of ordinary people, perhaps only from the heart of care for the world can create real art.
**10,000 Fans Incentive Plan We look forward to Director Zhang Yimou continuing to shoot good movies for us in the future and bring surprises to everyone, and I also hope that friends who have not seen the movie "Article 20" can enjoy it, I believe it will definitely bring you a different feeling.
