On the second day after the release of "This Man from Earth", newspapers and magazines of all sizes and online media began to give their own film reviews.

It is not an exaggeration to use "one stone stirs up a thousand waves" to describe the movie "This Man is from Earth". Before seeing this movie, no one thought that this movie would be so good, so good, in the words of a reporter who participated in the premiere of the movie: "This is a movie that drives the brain to go crazy!"

"Watching the Movie" magazine used such a headline "Content is king, science fiction is not equal to stunts!", and the whole article was full of enthusiastic praise for "Immortality".

"There is a person in ancient times who has lived from the Three Emperors and Five Emperors to the present, experienced or promoted countless major historical events, drank wine and wrote poems with Li Bai, talked freely with Liu Sanchang, and even became the existence of immortals in wild history. After a long period of time, in order to protect himself, he continued to integrate into the community and constantly migrated, and one day he suddenly decided to tell the story, so he had this movie. The pace and atmosphere of the film are comfortable, and the entire plot of the film is born in a small living room, and it all depends on the dialogue between the characters. The shooting technique is very innovative, there are no ups and downs and suspenseful plots, there is no love that goes through life and death, there are no hot and dizzying special effects, some are just a few people sitting in the living room, facing all kinds of questions and answers, art, religion, history, geography, calmly, eloquently, it is a clash of ideas. For an hour and a half, always keep the tension through. The right music, the right love, the right loneliness, the right cleverness!

It is appropriate to describe this movie as bland, Zhang Li did not deliberately play any personal talent in the film, at first glance, it looks like a student who has just graduated from the directing department to shoot a Virgo, but if you look closely, it is full of the talent of this talented young director, whether it is a well-conceived plot, or a special and innovative way of shooting, all of which reflect the talent of this young man, some people are born with extraordinary talent, there is no doubt that Zhang Li is such a genius! ”

"Cinema comes from the imagination of history, and the imagination of history is not strictly structural, but decorative. The biggest selling point of commercial films created with history as material is not to restore, but to reconstruct history. There are many movies that are similar to this process, such as "The Da Vinci Code", another masterpiece of historical suspense. The bland ending of the movie "This Man is from Earth" brings the story back to reality, and perhaps the newcomer director Zhang Li uses the same decorative behavior to make the film's reconstruction of history not become so terrifying. And so it engages the audience and resonates. - Universal Screen

Compared with business magazines such as "Watching Movies", "Universal Screen" has a more realistic and professional point of view, but it also unexpectedly praises Zhang Li.

"I have always believed that science fiction films are just a reconstruction of time and space, and the part involving history is blurred as a point in time and space. However, it was only after watching "This Man from Earth" last night that history was truly revealed as fresh material for film creation, and its reconstruction is better than "time and space", and this seems to exist only in Western film creation!" - China News Weekly

There are naturally black ones, and the black ones are nothing more than that they can't be considered science fiction at all, or even movies. The picture is simple, anyone can get on it.

"The protagonist will say that he knows Du Fu, he will know Liu Sanchang, and he will know Aunt Gongsun... What if you don't die for 100,000 years? So many big celebrities live in different countries, time and space, it is pure fool to be able to make up such a story, and the history of Zhou Gong and Hou Yi is recorded, from birth to death, the protagonist cannot justify himself at all. It's not sci-fi, it's. ”

"There is no logic at all, if you are really immortal, then your face will not change, will no one find out, and no one will doubt it for thousands of years. And the transition and connection of the shots are very problematic, and it is simply perfunctory. ”

"I don't understand what I'm trying to say at all, and in terms of the basic technical elements of the film, there are no bright spots in this film. Most of the time, the camera mechanically shifts between each character according to the needs of the dialogue, the composition of the picture is not very aesthetically pleasing, the soundtrack – if there is any soundtrack – does not serve any purpose to support the narrative at all, the pacing is lackluster, and the actors' acting skills are generally remarkable. ”

"What a garbage thing, cheating Lao Tzu out of money!"

"I don't know the so-called clouds and fog, I'm quite speechless!"

"What a disappointment!"

Most of the mainstream media reviews are good, after all, they are glossy. There are surprisingly bad reviews on the Internet, which makes people a little confused. The glamorous film was actually hacked on the Internet, it doesn't matter if it's almost there, but the film is good, and the glamorous has a hand in the promotion of the Internet, but it still hasn't been able to reverse the evaluation of the Internet, which is a bit intriguing.

Zhang Li's story, at first glance, seems to be an action to sell dog meat on the head of a sheep, with the name of a sci-fi blockbuster, but it does not have any of the characteristics of previous sci-fi blockbusters, at the beginning, looking at the general picture, the bland plot, the narrow scene, there is indeed a feeling of being deceived in my heart, but really look at it, there is only one sentence to describe it, that is, to go to his stunts, to save the world!

Under such two completely different contradictory views, the curiosity of most viewers was aroused and they went to the cinema to watch it.

After all, the polarization of this movie is very serious now, what I like is that this movie is a god film, that it is the best movie in 2010, and that this movie can be compared with Jiang Wen's "Sunny Days", Zhang Li can use this to become a god. When Zhang Li saw this, he was wondering if these were water armies, otherwise why could they blow so much, and compared with Jiang Wen, this is not a killing.

What I hate is to say, can a movie with an investment of about 100,000 yuan be considered a movie, Zhang Li has made too many micro movies. And there are no special effects, and it is said that it is a science fiction film. The content of the story is also all kinds of holes, and all kinds of bugs appear, so I dare to take it out for people to see, and it really deserves to be a talent singer.

At the same time, the daily box office data of "This Man is from Earth" was also sent to Zhang Li's hands.
