The box office of "Removing the Three Evils of the Week" is rising, ranking third behind "Article 20" and "Flying Life 2" on the first day of release, and second on the second day, as of press time, the box office reached the top on the third day of release, and the proportion of scheduled films rose to 205%, approved by theater managers, is likely to be the film that continues to lead the box office in March.
It is not easy to get such results, "Removing the Three Evils in the Week" is a film produced in Taiwan, China, and there is a lack of publicity in the mainland, there is no roadshow, only relying on Weibo topics and short ** to build momentum, and on the day of the mainland release, Netflix was launched simultaneously, and the resources of the "full version" were flying all over the sky on the same day, but at present, it has not had much impact on the box office.
can do this, in addition to the current Douban 8In addition to the good reputation of 3 points, it is also because of the shocking large-scale lens of "Removing the Three Evils Everywhere", which is very visually impactful and immersive, and if you want to maximize this perception, you can only experience it if you choose a theater with a big screen, and it will be greatly discounted when facing the TV at home.
A rough combing shows that "Removing the Three Evils Around the World" has at least four scenes of extreme violence and ** highlights.
The movie opens with a comedy scene, the younger brother of the gang talks about his gossip in front of Ruan Jingtian as Chen Guilin, but soon the style of painting changes abruptly, Chen Guilin kills people with a gun, and when he leaves, he is chased by the police played by Li Liren, and then the fight between the two people is very enjoyable!
This scene reminds the audience of the past glory of Taiwanese films, they not only have gentle and soft love films with excessive sugar content, but also Yang Dechang's "Mahjong", Wei Desheng's "Saidek Bale", Niu Chengze's "Monga", and Huang Jingfu's "Removing the Three Evils Around the World", Ruan Jingtian and Li Liren's fight is too real, there is no trick full of design, fists and feet, over-the-shoulder falls and props smashed with hands are quite tyrannical, and the climax is sharp metal inserted into the eyes, The close-up of gritting teeth and pulling out makes people instantly break out in a cold sweat, and this complete set of scenes, the version released in the mainland has been retained.
Then there is the process of Chen Guilin, who plans to "eliminate the two evils", to kill Aberdeen. The character of Aberdeen itself is "large-scale" enough, he is perverse, moody, ruthless to his subordinates, and inhumane to his stepdaughter. Yuan Fuhua, who plays Aberdeen, presents peak acting skills, he portrays the role so well, the scene where the barber shop eats, the twitching of the corners of his mouth are all scenes, based on Yuan Fuhua's superb performance, he is full of violent atmosphere throughout the whole process from appearance to receiving a boxed lunch.
Of course, in addition to violence, Aberdeen also brought out two large-scale ** scenes, a slap forced Xiaomei to submit, and then pressed her head to her crotch, which hinted quite obviously, and then there was a scene of naked and **wanton** on the side of the bathroom. In fact, the violence and ** scenes around Aberdeen are clearly telling the audience that the large-scale scenes of "Removing the Three Evils Around the World" are used by the promoters to hype up, and they are not the focus of the film's expression, these contents are all serving the character building and enhancing Chen Guilin's coolness when he got rid of Aberdeen.
Comparable to the fight scene between Chen Guilin and the police, Chen Guilin's pursuit of Aberdeen and the final duel with the other party in the field are also unbearable to look at, the whole process is extremely violent, armed fights, gunfights, hand-to-hand combat, metal long sticks inserted into the body, and close-ups of them taken out later will cause physical discomfort.
Finally, the climax of the whole film, after discovering that he was deceived by the big brother on the list, Chen Guilin planned to rebel and destroy this ** organization. I believe that friends who have watched this movie should still remember the ** scene in the church, a group of people who are singing in a daze, and Chen Guilin executing them one after another, blood splashing, spitting black water in the abdomen, and the mysterious and weird atmosphere set off by the whole section is unforgettable.
The version released in the mainland, this scene is the most modified. The reason for the change is that the overall duration has not been shortened, but some close-ups of headshots have been replaced with empty shots, or close-ups of faces playing and singing on the guitar on stage. And throughout the movie, the complete version released by Netflix, the most important and classic scene, a scene, is that after Chen Guilin shot the congregants in the church one by one, he sat on the stage and changed the bullets very relaxedly, while the ** on the stage was still playing and singing as usual, which is in great contrast to the picture of corpses displayed in the audience and blood all over the ground, even if it is a movie, when the group performers are lying there like this, and the props and plasma are flowing everywhere, I believe that no one can deal with it calmly! The mystery and contrast in this atmosphere can be called a classic, but this precious scene was also taken away by the version released in the mainland because it was too bloody, weird and outstanding. also made the leading actor Ruan Jingtian lose so many highlight moments in his performance.
The mainland box office of "Removing the Three Evils in the Week" is about to exceed 100 million, and the starring Ruan Jingtian has once again entered the audience's sight, and he has also been affirmed by the great director Ang Lee a few days ago, Ang Lee praised Ruan Jingtian "Your performance is very good", at the premiere, Ang Lee also said: "I haven't seen him for a long time (Ruan Jingtian), (China) Taiwan specializes in the appearance of a small student, very hopeful, I feel very happy." ”
