Introduction.
As a form of cultural expression, film art can often touch people's hearts, resonate and leave a deep impression. However, sometimes a highly anticipated movie can be a disappointment. Hot and Hot is one of them, and despite the significant production costs, the quality of its storyline is unsatisfactory. In the process of watching the movie, I deeply felt the procrastination of the plot, the lack of emotional expression, and the thinness of the characters, which led to a series of thoughts on filmmaking.
The plot drags on, and the emotions are not deep.
First of all, the plot of the movie "Hot and Hot" seems to be dragging on, making it difficult for the audience to engage. The storyline progresses slowly, making it feel like time is passing slowly, while the plot development is lackluster. The film fails to express emotions deeply, and the emotional entanglements between the characters pale in comparison. The inner world of the protagonist is not fully revealed, and the emotional transition lacks sufficient foreshadowing and presentation, making it difficult for the audience to be attracted to the story.
External stimuli and changes in the protagonist.
The change of the protagonist is often influenced by external stimuli, but this stimulus in the film is too bland and lacks real emotional touch. For example, the fat man experiences plots such as first love and betrayal of friends, but these elements do not echo the inner conflict of the protagonist and lack logic and coherence. This unreal emotional shift makes the audience doubt the protagonist's growth trajectory, weakening the authenticity and persuasiveness of the story.
The characters are thin and lack empathy.
In the movie, the thinness of the characters is also one of the reasons why it is difficult for the audience to resonate. The characterization of the protagonist is too one-dimensional, lacking depth and complexity, and it is difficult for the audience to feel emotional resonance and sympathy for it. At the same time, the image of the supporting characters appears flat, lacking vividness and attractiveness. It is difficult for the audience to understand the story from their point of view and then engage in the development of the plot.
The logic of the plot is incoherent and the rhythm is chaotic.
The incoherent logic of the plot of the movie and the chaotic rhythm are also one of the important reasons why it is difficult for the audience to engage. The transitions between the storylines appear stiff and lack natural transitions, making it difficult for the audience to follow the development of the plot. The chaotic pace further impairs the movie-watching experience, making it difficult to immerse oneself in it. The film's failure to integrate the development of the story into a natural rhythm keeps the audience's attention constantly distracted.
Director Jia Ling's shortcomings.
Director Jia Ling may have certain deficiencies in screenwriting and directing, which directly affects the quality of the whole movie. The bad stalks of the story and the thin personalities of the characters make the overall plot seem to lack depth and connotation. The director failed to fully reveal the inner world of the characters, nor did he effectively guide the actors' performances, resulting in the characters appearing dull and unreal.
Conclusion. To sum up, the movie "Hot and Hot" has many deficiencies in terms of plot, character building, emotional expression, etc. The lack of a compelling storyline and deep characterization makes it difficult for the audience to be engaged. Director Jia Ling's shortcomings in screenwriting and directing have exacerbated the film's flaws. It is expected that in the future, film production will pay more attention to the quality of the story and the three-dimensionality of the characters, and present richer and more profound film and television works to the audience.
