The frenzy of praise from three top authoritative media outlets has pushed "Burst Drummer" to the pinnacle of praise, but what is even more incredible is that all the discussion has been unanimously focused on Lan Li, and with the highest praise, Lan Li has been pushed to the altar The prefix title of "Young Actors of the Y Century Generation" can be stripped away, and officially ranks among Hollywood's top palace actors.

But...... Is this praise or denigration?

Since EGOT, Lan Li has always been on the cusp, and now the "Burst Drummer" has taken this divisive feedback even further, and no one can say whether this is a good thing or a bad thing. Maybe after the "Burst Drummer" officially landed in theaters, things will gradually become clearer, but now, everything is still unknown.

At least, the Hollywood Reporter has joined the ranks.

In the Hollywood industry, Michael Phillips is an unwavering "Blue Rite Champion", and he has never hidden his admiration and love for Blue Rite, almost every work starred in Blue Rite, he will watch it seriously, and give pertinent opinions and professional film reviews So far, all of them are praised.

Of course, this is not unusual.

Because the overall trend of Lan Li's works is like this, each work can be called a masterpiece, even the most controversial "detachment" so far has a group of unwavering supporters, and it is precisely because of this that a large number of sunspots who complain about Lan Li and oppose Lan Li have appeared on social media media.

But Michael is a little different, as a professional writer for the "Hollywood Reporter", he is the closest to a Pulitzer Prize-winning film critic since Roger Ebert, even if he admires and loves Blue Gift, his film review must still maintain relative objectivity and neutrality, ensuring the authority and professionalism of the magazine.

From this point of view, "Hollywood Reporter" and "Variety" are more similar and similar.

In this context, Michael's support and praise are truly commendable.

Sundance's official premiere of "Burst Drummer", Michael naturally has no reason to miss it, in fact, there is no need for the craze of the symposium at all, Michael has already arrived in Park City early, compared to the awards season frenzy, Sundance's thirtieth anniversary celebration is obviously much more interesting.

After attending the premiere for the first time, Michael did not write a film review immediately, but quietly waited for his thoughts to settle down, and repeatedly recalled the details of the movie, and then started to write a film review. As a result, the "Hollywood Reporter" commented on the timeliness of other media outlets.

"It's a film with a unique style, and if the audience feels violated or hurt and then feels anger and discomfort, then it proves that Damien Chazelle has succeeded, because that's what he expects.

'Burst Drummer' shows the antithesis of the idea of entertainment to death in the 21st century, which is entertainment for all, and in a serious and cold, bloody and bigoted, cruel and brutal way, presenting the self-torture in the process of artistic breakthrough, showing the other side of art and entertainment in an unconventional way.

It's all 'sho' as well, but the show of 'Burst Drummer' is clearly not 'Singin'.

We all know that Van Gogh cut off his ear, Picasso went blind in his old age, and Hemingway ended his life with a shotgun, but we are not geniuses or artists, we have never been able to understand how much pain and suffering they endured on the road of art, through this film, maybe we can get a glimpse of the tip of the iceberg.

Maybe you're going to hate this work deeply, maybe you're going to feel a heartburn severely, maybe you're going to feel violated, and that's okay, because we're all ordinary people, and we'll never be able to understand the world of artists, their inspiration and talent are an unsolved mystery, and all we need to do is be a loyal viewer and peek into the world behind art.

The film presents three different perspectives, ordinary people who don't know anything about art, artists who are eager to break through in the field of art but lack talent after all, and genius artists who really have talent and become gold.

Undoubtedly, the performances of the latter two also became the core of the whole movie, Simmons and Hall, Hall and Simmons, these two actors did their job brilliantly.

One is strong and one is delicate, one is flamboyant and one is introverted, one is explosive and one is upgraded, in the continuous transformation of advance and retreat, attack and defense, the two characters continue to spiral and rise, bursting out little by little sonorous sparks, making performance an art, and watching the performance has become a kind of enjoyment.

Simmons' blockbuster performance has undoubtedly become the central driving force behind the film's continued progress, and it is also the best performance of his career, six years ago, he starred in the Oscar nomination for Best Picture 'Juno', but his style has all disappeared under the light of Ellen Page, and it has been until today.

As for Hall, he delivered a breakthrough performance that set a new career high, just as Andrew Neiman followed in the footsteps of legendary drummer Buddy Ricky in the movie, and he also managed to rank among the best in film history, and on a par with that series of brilliant names, his performance gave Andrew the soul, gave the jazz soul, and gave the whole movie the soul.

For many audiences, the most impressive thing about the movie is still in the final picture, Lan Li-Hall's eyes, like "Love is Crazy", "Detachment", "Drunken Folk" and other works, the joy and happiness of breaking through the cocoon into a butterfly in the depths of the eyes bloomed with a trace of light, and the brilliance lit up the entire screen in an instant, truly allowing the soul to usher in a baptism.

But personally, my favorite picture is before the final high/tide, the fragility and strangulation of weakness in the moment of the hug between Andrew and his father, burst out with infinite power between the change of eyes, and the trend pulls up all the previous foreshadowing, and the beginning and end have come to the end, heralding the arrival of the ending.

The power of the eyes, under the interpretation of Lan Li-Hall, is like the combination of light and shadow, composition, editing and lens, which completely bursts out the charm of film film, and who can refuse?"

As expected, Michael put almost all his brushstrokes on Lan Li, and did not stingy with his fanaticism at all, once again dedicating all the praise to Lan Li, although Simmons and Damien are still an important part of the film review, Lan Li is undoubtedly still the top priority.

100 out of 100.

Michael also made his own judgment, and for the third consecutive work delivered the highest praise with a perfect score, which truly pushed Lan Li's career to a new high.

Although the media review is only one of the many measures for judging the success of a work, it can at least prove that the authoritative recognition of professional media is definitely a super high treatment that cannot be encountered.

So far, the four authoritative media are all in place, and they all sent full scores.

The "Los Angeles Times" and the "New York Times" respectively represent the leading leaders of the integrated media on the east and west sides of the strait, while the "Variety" and the "Hollywood Reporter" respectively represent the professional and authoritative media on the east and west sides of the strait whose art and culture are rooted in Hollywood.

In the field of art, authoritative media does not mean authoritative opinions, but the authoritative opinions of many independent media can win more recognition, but authoritative media can bring more influence, and then have more chain effects, which is ...... The treatment that countless commercial films have expected before their release, and independent films will not refuse more exposure, winning more potential opportunities for their own distribution.

It's just that "Burst Drummer" really doesn't need more attention, and now the attention is already seriously overheated, and the premiere has just ended, and the discussion on social networks has almost surpassed "Gravity" and "Drunken Country Folk", two important works shortlisted for Oscar nominations.

The four authoritative media all gave full marks, this is not the first time and neither the last, but it has created unimaginable waves at such a critical moment.

Official clapper: The haze of "cooling" hanging over Lan Li's head has finally begun to dissipate!

But for now, this has sparked more backlash from the general public, because they don't see the "popping drummer", and in the malicious imagination of speculation and speculation, they only reject Lan Li more and more.

Entering the temple and pushing onto the altar at the age of twenty-four, Lan Li is still too young, and the thorny road in front of him is far beyond imagination, even if there are works to open the way, it is still not so easy. It is conceivable that the release of "Burst Drummer" will face more and greater pressure, depending on whether the quality of the work is excellent.

For now, at least, the popularity and praise seem to be just a carnival feast for the media.

However, in addition to the four authoritative media, the reputation of "Burst Drummer" has also shown a blowout posture!

In the first batch of 24 media reviews after the premiere of "Burst Drummer", the work was unanimously praised, with no negative reviews and no neutral reviews, all of them were positive! This has also become the first excellent work with "zero negative reviews" or even "zero neutral reviews" since the unveiling of Sundance this year, and even "Vanity Fair", which dislikes this work the most, gave 80 points.

Eighty points, this is the lowest score of the first batch of reviews, and this small detail can be seen in the praise frenzy of "Burst Drummer".
