The "Interstellar" media comprehensive review was officially released.

Bad review, one.

Medium review, ten.

……

Full marks, ten.

Positive, twenty-eight.

……

Ignoring the content of the reviews for the time being, you can feel it simply from the comparison of data, "Interstellar" continues the word-of-mouth trend during the internal test screening, and under the ambiguous, ambiguous/ambiguous overall pattern, the praise for Nolan and Lan Li still has the upper hand - no matter what the personal perception is, it is still undeniable that the completion of the work is still worthy of affirmation.

After carefully reading the content of the review, it can be gradually found that the main controversy of film critics revolves around whether the "theme of family affection" is enough: too dramatic, too petty, too bloody, too sensational, or is emotion an integral part of human nature? is it right to return to human beings? and trigger points for discussion and reflection are already everywhere?

This is also the boundary between a medium review and a good review.

Leaving aside the debate at the core of the topic, in fact, 48 of the 49 media outlets have reached a lot of consensus:

The visual effects are truly magnificent, the space images are truly stunning, the sound effects are truly exciting, and the actors' performances are indeed good...... That's pretty much the case overall, Nolan once again showed his keen talent for the camera, the picture, the editing, and so on, and successfully completed a well-made work.

The only regret and the most interesting point is that Nolan's shortcomings of not being good at manipulating/coaching actors have been exposed again.

At the beginning, Heath Ledger of "Batman: The Dark Knight" relied entirely on the actor's own interpretation, and his role as the Joker became the first actor in history to win an Oscar for acting in a superhero movie, but Nolan's credit is really limited.

This is also the case.

The core of the entire theme of "Interstellar" is based on emotion, which also makes the importance of actors' performances further prominent, but unfortunately Nolan does not have the ability to adjust/teach acting skills, and can only rely on the actor's self-play to complete the role, which is why he relies on a strong cast.

Ranley Hall, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain, Michael Kane...... This is a very strong cast, with a total of fourteen Oscar nominations, as well as four Little Golden Man trophies, their strength is undoubted, but the reputation of the performance is slightly different, some people are full of praise, and some people are crazy to complain, the main reason is-

It cannot be unified.

Each actor has his own performance style, but Nolan has not been able to find the same rhythm and connect all the performances in series, which also makes the final picture inevitably unbalanced, especially the difference in performance power and rhythm, which is often easy to make the character's emotions rise and fall like a seesaw, unable to form a unity, which further amplifies the drama of the emotion, leading to the strong accusation of "soap opera".

As a result, some people like it and some people complain.

However, James Roche of "Playlist" will certainly not agree with other critics:

"Maybe 'Interstellar' isn't perfect, but Ranley Hall has proven itself once again. ”

"This is definitely not Christopher Nolan's best work, and it is still quite a bit close to the best, but there is no doubt that this is Christopher Nolan's exploration of jumping out of his own security field, trying to broaden his understanding and excavation of film, and the only reason why this exploration can succeed is Lanley Hall!"

"Hall, Hall, Lanli-Hall has once again proven himself to be one of the best actors of our time! Every look on the big screen vividly interprets the emotional changes, and his performance gives the character real life, and it is hard to imagine what 'Interstellar' would be like without Lanli-Hall. ”

"I really don't want to continue to praise Ranley-Hall, those compliments have become calloused, and even started to get boring. But the truth is that Hall has once again proven that he is irreplaceable among actors under the age of thirty. The delicate and profound performance truly interprets the vastness of Othello. ”

"If you choose an actor in this world, sit in front of the camera and talk to himself, talk to himself, for 90 minutes, and the audience has to sit there and watch it. My first choice will always be Ranley-Hall! Has anyone noticed a pause and a turn in the opening phases? That's the story. ”

"My favorite passage in the whole film: Lan Li-Hall's eyes. In the most important turns of the whole movie, Lan Li-Hall's eyes have become the finishing touch on the entire big screen, simple and profound, but full of power to the point. Honestly, I can't think of a better word to describe him. ”

"Being able to go beyond the direction and special effects in a commercial film work and give a cutting-edge and profound performance, the last time it appeared in Nolan's work, the actor is called Heath Ledger. ”

……

James Roche didn't like Lan Li's performance, not because Lan Li's performance was disappointing, but because of the homogeneity of "Interstellar" and "Gravity", he expected Lan Li to break through himself, but obviously, James Roche's idea was not able to get the recognition and support of his peers.

Praise! Praise! Praise! Still praise! One after another, it is simply impossible to stop, and even the media that gave the review did not hesitate to praise themselves, which is even more incredible considering that this is a commercial film. So, is this a good thing or a bad thing?

The haters are bound to think that this is another routine "commercial touting", maybe Lan Li's performance is indeed good, but how can the focus of commercial movies be performance? It can be special effects, it can be a story, it can be the charm of the protagonist, but ...... Show? Sure it's not a joke?

Supporters don't care, because Lan Li has proven himself excellent through performance after performance, and his performance has been highly praised in "Fast and Exciting 5" and "Edge of Tomorrow", so why can't it be in "Interstellar"? Maybe other actors' performances in commercial movies have not been able to shine, but it doesn't mean that Lan Li is not good, not to mention, the case of "gravity" is not long ago.

This is both a good thing and a bad thing.

But it is undeniable that the media review has once again shown the unmoved firmness of professional film critics - aside from the negative comments in the awards season, in fact, the film critics' affirmative views on "gravity" and "drunken country ballads" have never changed, which is also a strong support point for Lan Li to win the Oscar nomination for the fourth consecutive year, and now, film critics still maintain relative objectivity and praise Lan Li.

After experiencing the trough of the awards season and the miss of the Oscars, people are still looking forward to the high-profile "Burst Drummer" at the Sundance Film Festival, and looking forward to this work becoming a shining moment for Lan Li to show the charm of the actors, but who would have thought that "Interstellar" would take the lead in completing such a feat in the summer file, showing Lan Li's strong control over performance with the shell of a commercial film, and won a round of applause again!

The momentum of recovery is coming so fast!

But if you think about it seriously, strictly speaking, in fact, Lanli has never really fallen into a trough or fallen into trouble, so there is no way to talk about "warming".

The praise and pursuit of "Interstellar" is more of a short period of bumps and bumps, and then re-giving Lanli the treatment it deserves, which is a more appropriate way to say - compared to the recovery and rise, with Lanli's current status in the industry, the space for continuous "breakthrough" is really limited, and it is enough to return to its original position.

From the confusion of bad reviews and medium reviews to the heat wave of positive reviews, the media comprehensive evaluation of "Interstellar" made a shining debut under the watchful eye, and the comprehensive comments of 49 media finally settled on 79 points, unfortunately not being able to cross the 80-point threshold and enter the ranks of "excellent", which is also the lowest work of the media comprehensive evaluation since Lanli's "detachment".

However, is 79 really too low? To be precise, it should be that the standard of praise for Lan Li's works is too high, and you can see the clues by comparing Nolan's other works horizontally.

"Fragments of memory", eighty points.

"Deadly Magic", sixty-six points.

"Batman: The Mystery of the Shadows", seventy points.

"Batman: The Dark Knight", eighty-four points.

"Batman: The Dark Knight Rises", seventy-eight points.

"Inception", seventy-four points.

In other words, the media comprehensive evaluation of "Interstellar" ranks third among Nolan's personal works, second only to "The Dark Knight" and "Memory Fragments", and easily surpasses "The Dark Knight Rises" and "Inception".

In addition, "Interstellar" can also be placed in this year's summer file, competing with commercial film competitors released at the same time, and it is clear where the 79-point media comprehensive evaluation can be placed.

"Captain America 2", seventy points.

"Rio Adventure 2", 49 points.

"Transcendental hackers", forty-two points.

"The Amazing Spider-Man 2", fifty-three points.

"Godzilla", sixty-two points.

"X-Men: Future Reversal", 75 points.

"Maleficent", fifty-six points.

It has been two months since the unveiling of the summer file, and the production cost is more than 100 million large-scale projects, and there are only three works that have reached the passing line in the media comprehensive evaluation, "X-Men: Days of Future Past" is currently the king of word-of-mouth, followed by "Captain America 2", and "Godzilla" has barely reached the level of landing.

Now, "Interstellar" has debuted, and the evaluation of this work with a score of 79 points easily surpassed a number of competitors and became the work with the highest media comprehensive evaluation so far in the summer file, which once again proves that the partner combination of "Nolan and Blue Gift" is still the guarantee of the reputation of the work!

Previously, Warner Bros. announced that the movie would be upgraded, which caused countless speculations, and some people even thought that "Interstellar" was an outcast because of the poor quality of the finished product, and it was likely to become the first Waterloo of Lan Li's career, but now, all the mysteries have been revealed:

This is still one of the most watchable and noteworthy works in the summer of 2014!
