"Isn't this the most romantic, magnificent, majestic and beautiful love story since the 'Titanic'?"

"God, Lanley Hall is definitely the most charismatic screen lover since Leonardo DiCaprio! ”

"Countless reincarnations, countless glances, all the roads and fights, all the killings and rebirths, just to come to your side, waiting for that moment of sight to meet. This is not only the most touching confession I have ever heard, but also the most wonderful love I have ever seen. No words are needed, just a look, and the world is already in full swing. Jesus Christ, I really love this ......"

Three tweets in a row, three testimonials in a row, among them, the third one was not able to be written because of the word limit of one hundred and four crosses on Twitter, which clearly and clearly showed the emotion and excitement of the Twitter owner, and could even depict the picture of the person typing with trembling hands in his mind, so excited that he couldn't speak, and couldn't wait to turn all his feelings into words and share them with everyone else.

And so it is.

After the premiere of "Edge of Tomorrow" ended, Daisy Lucas, a reporter from "Vanity Fair", did not have time to leave the Chinese Theater, standing in the gentle breeze of the night, and couldn't wait to type the above words, expressing her mood for the first time, every word and every sentence revealed her excitement and happiness at the moment.

Daisy Lucas, since the "Pacific War", she has been curious and inquisitive about the actor Lan Li, and her wise strokes are more or less with some innate female affection, but that is just a reporter's exploration of the actor, Lan Li has never really moved her personally.

Until today.

As a journalist, Daisy knows better than anyone that "Edge of Tomorrow" is a commercial film, a commercial film through and through, and at the same time, she also knows very well that love is not the main line of this movie, not even the branch line, but she still sinks like this, deeply.

Writing film reviews is the job of a professional film critic, but Daisy still wrote a long film review on her Facebook page overnight. It's not so much a movie review as a post-viewing experience.

"It's not a romance movie, but it's a classic because of two great actors. This is the beginning of Daisy's personal reflections, in which Daisy analyzes the entire film in detail or, more accurately, Cage's connection to the theme of reincarnation.

In Daisy's text, she emphasizes that the whole movie is not a simple upgrade of fighting monsters, nor is it a vulgar routine to save the world, but "reincarnation". In the midst of killing after killing, death after death, and parting again and again, just like the classic reincarnation movie "Groundhog Day", the movie finally landed on Cage.

Witnessing the death of his comrades-in-arms and witnessing the loss of life, Cage experienced a bumpy and difficult growth process, from facing the war to shouldering the mission, and then to suffering, he experienced too many deaths, watching his comrades-in-arms die again and again, that kind of torment and torture, like purgatory.

Separation of life and death is always the most difficult proposition in the world to decipher, and in the same way, war is also a vicious circle in which human beings continue to strangle themselves. Trapped in reincarnation, Cage is physically and mentally exhausted, covered in bruises, and even his soul is full of shackles, and his steps are getting heavier and harder.

"Cage is like a wandering soul floating in the space of reincarnation, lonely, helpless, dazed, painful, tormented, and Rita, this is the only one who can understand her, two scarred souls, they are each other's only dependence, and they are each other's only hope.

At the end of the movie, Cage meets Rita again, and that one eye contact makes all the difference, and the whole movie becomes whole, and Cage becomes full. The encounter of fate, the fate of reincarnation, finally met each other again. So poetic, so beautiful, and so magnificent.

About fate, about fate, and reincarnation with oriental charm, this is undoubtedly the core of the theme of the whole movie, and it is also an important factor that distinguishes the film from most Hollywood popcorn commercial films. ”

In the article, Daisy emphasized that the space of this invisible side line is limited, but under the excellent interpretation of the two actors, it has become the greatest contributor to the integrity of the story.

"Especially Ranley Hall. The young actor, in the performance revealed delicate and profound, rich in layers, intricate, into the story, the tip of the tongue of the memories make the plot, let the character, let the performance full of endless aftertaste, just with the eyes of the last scene, this commercial film is enough to win the Golden Globe nomination.

In addition, at the moment of life and death between Cage and Rita, Rita confided in her middle name for the first time, and at that moment, Cage's eyes once again woke up the classic moment in the ninth episode of the 'Pacific War', Hall's weighty performance really lit up the entire big screen. ”

At the end of the article, Daisy once again said, "This is not only my personal favorite movie since 2012, but also my favorite love movie since 'Titanic'." Although, the official definition of Warner Bros. is a science fiction war movie. ”

The article was posted on Daisy's personal Facebook page and was labeled "contains spoilers", strongly recommending that viewers who have not watched the movie, as well as those who are afraid of spoilers, go into the cinema and watch the movie before reading it.

After the premiere of "Edge of Tomorrow" ended, the social media exploded immediately, about the sci-fi black tunnel, about the red carpet of the battlefield simulation, about the interview scene without barriers, about the limited edition of merchandise, and of course, about the feelings after attending the premiere......

According to statistics, on average, more than 1,300 tweets are discussing "Edge of Tomorrow" every minute, breaking the historical record of Twitter discussion, and this is just the statistics of Twitter, not including Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, etc. It really made people experience what it means to be "hot".

In the midst of this, Daisy Lucas's tweet is not surprising at all, drowning in a flood of data in the blink of an eye.

But the amazing thing is that these three tweets gradually began to spread, like a snowball, rolling bigger and bigger. Everyone is amazed at the same thing -

"What? Is this a romance movie? Are you kidding me?"

"Wait, did you go to the wrong premiere scene? to 'Madagascar 3' next door? but, no, when did 'Madagascar 3' start falling in love?"

"Am I misunderstood, this is not 'Edge of Tomorrow', but other films?

In the early publicity, "Edge of Tomorrow" was promoted in the genre of sci-fi war movies, but now some people claim that this is a love movie, and it is not just a casual person, an officially certified senior reporter of "Vanity Fair", which is interesting, so everyone began to be curious.

Immediately after, Daisy's post on her Facebook page began to spread.

Although Daisy's perspective is different, it is undeniable that Daisy gives another way of interpreting the story, especially the interpretation of the theme of reincarnation, which is refreshing, which is an important addition to the whole story of "Edge of Tomorrow".

Later in the campaign, Paul Greengrass and Lan Li Hall were personally asked, to which Lan Li gave an affirmative answer.

"Every character in the film is meaningful, and so is the story between Cage and them, in the original book, it's a sad story about the profound and distant meaning of reincarnation in Eastern culture, and in the adaptation process, we simplified and distilled it, but it's true, the connection between Cage and Rita is special and unique. So, I guess it's really interesting to have different perspectives. ”

Lan Li's answer also sparked countless discussions on the Internet, and later led to a frenzy of second and third movie viewing. But that's all for later.

After the premiere, Daisy Lucas's personal film review became the focus, in a sense, it was a microcosm of the night.

For male audiences, the movie is an adrenaline-pumping sci-fi movie, with fantastic fights, high/climactic rhythms, and charismatic characters, which are indeed addictive, while for female audiences, beyond the fast pace of popcorn, the reincarnation puzzle completed by the last look is intoxicating and intoxicating.

On Twitter and Facebook, the audience at the premiere was full of praise and spread mightily, and before the film critics' word of mouth came out, "Edge of Tomorrow" had already ushered in the first wave of praise frenzy, which even Warner Bros. itself did not expect-

Romantic movies?

They never thought that the movie could be operated and promoted like this, isn't it a waste of publicity opportunities? If they had discovered this early and hyped up the scandal between Lan Li and Jennifer, would the movie have made more breakthroughs at the box office when it premiered? But now, obviously, it is too late.

However, this still did not detract from the spread of "Edge of Tomorrow", and in just a few hours, the film has successfully topped the discussion charts of Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Google and Yahoo communities, becoming the most eye-catching and most concerned hot topic among all netizens.

As expected, young audiences are the target audience of Warner Bros., and now that the social media boom has taken an important first step, it seems that all signs point to another explosion of "Edge of Tomorrow", but is that really the case?

The higher the expectation, the greater the tension.
