Chapter 267: Because I like it too much

At the end of the premiere, many people came to watch the film because they belonged to the book club, and when they left, they gathered together, and many people discussed the film they had just watched while walking.

An older black-haired young man said, "The adaptation is very large. ”

The blonde boy next to him answered: "But the adaptation is very exciting, more exciting than that." ”

The black-haired older young man spread his hands helplessly and said, "John, I'm not complaining? ”

The brown-haired man who followed behind had a sad face: "It is most appropriate to mourn Robert Ludlun with such a wonderful movie." ”

"yes. Another agreed.

The brunette said, "I never thought that Matt Damon could be so handsome and so cool. ”

The blonde boy agreed: "Much better than his good brother, Ben Affleck, who starred in "Pearl Harbor" some time ago!"

The grief-stricken brown-haired man interjected at this time: "I heard that this is the actor who was personally finalized by producer Ronan Anderson, and this guy has a good eye. ”

"Ronan Anderson?" the blonde boy hadn't noticed the name before.

The black-haired older youth said: "The first producer and first screenwriter of the film. He seems to have understood: "It seems that he is the producer of the "Human Eradication Project" series and "The Grim Reaper." ”

"Two super-selling horror movies?" said the blonde boy, "and this producer seems to be very powerful." ”

Someone suddenly came up in front of him to block the road, it turned out to be someone from the investigation consulting company, under normal circumstances, several people are not willing to delay the time to do this kind of investigation, and they don't look down on the little gift given by the investigation consulting company.

But tonight was different, they all rated the film because they liked it so much!

Several people without exception rated it as "A+".

Chicago, late at night.

I only received a copy of the movie "Spy Movie" in the mail this afternoon, and Roger Albert took advantage of his free time in the evening to watch it in his private theater.

After reading it, he said to the waiting agent: "Reviewable." ”

Due to the aggravation of his mouth, Roger Albert could not speak for a long time, and his sentences became more and more refined, which also affected his film reviews.

Coming to the study, Roger Albert referred to the relevant information he had obtained and wrote a short review in only twenty minutes.

"It is undeniable that Robert Ludlen's original book "The Identity of Bourne", known as the father of modern thriller, has a wonderful story. But producer Ronan Anderson made a drastic makeover when he translated it into the language of cinema. ”

"It is said that when Ronan Anderson asked Tony Gilroy to write the script for "Spy", he advised him not to read it, but to write the script exactly according to the outline of the story he had written. In this process, director Paul Greengrass was also personally involved, discussing and polishing the script together, which took more than half a year to write. It can be described as a fine work. ”

"Now that the movie is out, the results prove that it is all worth it. ”

"The most impressive thing about Spy is its quick editing and handheld cinematography. This kind of technical change in film language is destined to make "Spy Shadow" from an excellent spy movie to a classic visual paradigm. ”

"The hand-held jitter and fragmented visual language is not a show of skill, but a good elaboration of the character's personality and behavior in the image, although the original book has given Jason Byrne an agility and extraordinary perceptuality. Calm and good at using the surrounding environment and other character characteristics, but we can only perceive this character, and we can't see this characteristic on the screen, Paul Greengrass's next level is to make the character hidden in the dramatic conflict to the iris of the audience, this kind of transformation from the brain to the eyes to see, is the greatest contribution. ”

"Spy movies are not just about beautiful women and bombs, sometimes the mental stimulation brought by extraordinary people walking off the altar is often much more impressive than the tedium caused by lingering on the altar. ”

"I think that after the release of the new work "Spy Shadows", it will set a new benchmark for spy films in the 21st century!"

At this point, Roger Albert thought of the film's producer and first screenwriter, and after a little thought, he continued to write.

"Special mention to the film's producer, Ronan Anderson, a guy who has just joined Hollywood and has the potential to become a gold producer, who is the initiator of "Spy", and personally selected Paul Greengrass and Matt Damon as the director and actor, which is now very successful. ”

"Based on my observations over the past few years, Ronan Anderson, as a producer, has a keen eye and not only sees extremely far, but also can see things that others have not discovered, and can see things that others have not seen. A good producer must have such a unique vision and broad vision, must understand and control the market, and learn to discover good scripts and new projects, which is the foundation of life. ”

At the end of the review, Roger Albert gave it a rating of four and a half stars out of five out of five and gave it his trademark thumbs up.

The premiere of "Spy Shadow" was a huge success, on the one hand, it received one-sided word-of-mouth praise, and on the other hand, the ingenious premiere attracted the attention of countless audiences.

The effect of winning the position and eyeballs under the banner of reasonableness is excellent.

The black carpet made by Ronan and the neat black dresses of the main creators of the crew and the premiere guests, as well as the subsequent tribute link, also made the media praise.

Respect for the deceased is not only in the East, but also in the West.

Like the annual Academy Awards, paying tribute and mourning to deceased members of the Academy is an essential part.

Even though it seems very boring and boring, there has never been a media accusation against the Oscars in this regard.

This is a universal value orientation of human society.

The only pity is that Robert Ludlun is the writer behind the scenes, not a star actor in front of the scenes like Heath Ledger, otherwise the impact on the film will be greater.

No one can deny that Heath Ledger played a major role in the success of The Dark Knight.

In Ronan's previous life, before the release of "The Dark Knight", Warner Bros.'s huge propaganda machine had already completed the mythology of the Joker and Heath Ledger.

Thanks to the protection of Robert Ludlen's deceased, as well as the excellent quality of the key film itself, "Spy Shadow" received comprehensive praise after the premiere, and the word of mouth was so good that it exploded directly.

The Los Angeles Times praised Matt Damon's acting skills and Paul Greengrass's directing ability, and commented that the film "took control of our attention and our respect."

The Dallas Morning Post said: "'Spy Shadow' bursts out with comparable power and energy." ”

The New York Times commented that the film "evokes all the senses without relying on any special effects or soundtracks."

Even the film critics who have always disliked summer blockbusters and flaunted the elegance of the judges have also given great praise to "Spy Shadows".

In addition to Roger Albert, Kenneth Turan and Todd McCarthy, among others, there are many film critics who have received positive reviews one after another.

The Washington Post's Stephen Hunt directly quoted his daughter's feelings about Spy: "'You know what, this movie is really only about one thing – Matt Damon is so cool. She liked him very much, and I was secondary. But she was right: the film aptly showed his tough and resolute character and rugged and handsome appearance. ”

Of course, it is impossible for all media and film critics to like this film, and there are also criticisms that this film is not very cold.

Someone in the Boston Earth wrote, "Matt Damon's performance from start to finish was like sleepwalking. ”

Criticism from the Los Angeles Daily News: "Matt Damon doesn't distinguish his role from a spy. ”

But these are more like picks, because both inside and outside the industry think that in "Spy Movie", Matt Damon played the best acting skills since the film, and the role of Jason Bourne seems to be tailor-made for him.

The most direct word-of-mouth statistics were quickly sent to Ronan, and the response from all sides was similar to expected, and it could even be said that it was even better than expected.

In addition, in the theater audience survey conducted by Cinema Score, the average score of the audience after watching the movie is "A", and based on the response from various aspects, Cinema Score conservatively predicts that the North American box office of "Spy Shadow" will not be less than $150 million.

Ronan has always maintained sufficient communication with Embassy Pictures, and the publicity and distribution departments of Embassy Pictures have been working in full force, and all kinds of resources have been invested in "Spy Shadows" during this time period, with explosive word-of-mouth and word-of-mouth marketing.

Hollywood movies have entered this era, and the word-of-mouth of movies has long been not spontaneously formed, and the concept of word-of-mouth marketing has penetrated into this industry.

Movies with a bad reputation strive to find the target audience and selling point, and movies with a good reputation must use huge media resources to make the word of mouth burst and strive to reach the ears of every potential audience and even potential consumers.

Even if some people don't go to the theater, they are very likely to become part of the offline consumers.

TV, DVDs, and new media rights, which are just beginning to develop, have brought a film more revenue than the box office.

As the owner and operator of a film company, of course, you can't just focus on the box office.

Unlike those films that use special effects as a selling point, "Spy Shadow" is close to the visual style of the documentary, which can make the film more marketable on the small screen and in the home entertainment market.

After the premiere, the reputation and popularity of "Spy Shadow" piled up more and more, and finally when the 2,500 advance screenings arrived, a huge number of fans found an outlet and flocked to the theater to enjoy this spy action movie.
