Kate has been watching the comments on the Internet, and her previous "Pearl Harbor" box office fiasco, which has greatly affected her box office appeal, she naturally hopes that "Inception" can soar so that she can regain her former glory.
Both the professional media and the always critical film critics did not hesitate to praise him and gave unanimous praise, and Kate was even more relieved when she knew it: "As expected, this film will definitely be a big hit." β
Kate admired Xu Qian even more, not only because of his strong physical fitness, but also because of his strong ability.
The fact that a Chinese director can gain a foothold in Hollywood shows that he is extraordinary, and such an achievement is simply not something that ordinary people can do, but Xu Qian has done it.
For a commercial production, the score is not the most critical, the most critical thing is the box office results.
"Xu Qian is really amazing. β
Cameron exclaimed.
Cameron couldn't help but praise after watching the movie.
In recent years, Cameron has been innovating film technology, and Xu Gan's film perfectly inherits his ideas and is very appetizing to him, so he can't help but admire.
He continued to praise: "Director Xu Qian is a director who balances business and art very well, the ski chase and weightless fight in the action scenes are all great highlights, and the special effects are almost perfect, he is really my role model." β
As the most influential commercial film director in the world today, Cameron's praise naturally made "Inception" attract attention.
Many people think that this "Inception" will become a gold-sucking monster that will devour everything.
Xu Qian also tweeted Cameron: "When will your new movie be released?"
Cameron said: "I'm preparing Lolita, and you're going to have a lot of cheers when the movie comes out." β
Xu Qian said: "Definitely, definitely." β
All of them.........
Cameron and Xu Qian, the two of them, are really enough to blow each other.
But some people feel that this has extraordinary significance, at least in Cameron's eyes, Xu Qian has become a person of the same level as him.
If you are not qualified, who wants to blow with you? No one wants to.
Since July 1st, "Inception" has been officially released in North America, although the film belongs to the most risky original genre of big-budget commercial films, but because of Warner's strong distribution capabilities and the film's strong reputation, the film has still dropped to nearly 4,800 theaters.
In the advance of the weekend, "Inception" easily won the box office of 10,000 US dollars with the appeal of many big-name stars such as Xu Qian and Kobe.
Such a box office is terrifying, and this is only an advance scene, everyone knows that this is a movie that is about to swallow mountains and rivers.
Then, on Monday, "Inception" fetched $1.5 million, setting the best opening day box office for an original film.
There is also another movie that is still strong at the box office, and that is Bang Bei's "Shapeshifting Robot 5", which still occupies the top spot at the box office.
This is the horror of the "Shapeshifting Robot" series, after all, the first four movies have established a good reputation for this one.
That's why Hollywood is also reluctant to make original movies, it is too risky to be an independent original movie, and it is very likely to lose money if you are not careful.
But on the second day, "Inception" surpassed "Transforming Robot 5" at the single-day box office, which made countless people start to exclaim wolf.
This weekend's film market has a trend of "Inception" dominating.
After getting the statistics of the first day in North America, Warner Bros. also stepped up its efforts in promoting the film.
This movie is very different from Xu Qian's previous movies, first, the reputation is very good, this movie has a kind of forced style, which makes people unclear, and secondly, this movie shows the kind of invincible super state from the beginning, which is not in Xu Qian's previous movies.
Xu Qian's previous movies always had to be obscene and developed, but this "Inception" doesn't need to be obscene at all, just second to second, second to second, God blocks and kills God, and Buddha blocks and kills Buddha.
After the first day of release, the media gave Inception almost overwhelming praise when it came to all-important media promotion, and they did not hesitate to praise the incredible, masterpiece, perfection, miracle, subconscious, Freud, Jungian doctrine, action, emotional impact, and more.
Anyway, all the words "invisible" have been added to "Inception", which makes those who have not seen "Inception" think in their hearts: "Wow, is this movie so awesome? β
is also like this, many people are deeply attracted to "Inception" because of the publicity.
"From the theme, to the narrative to the production, Inception is a quintessential Hollywood production. Hollywood production certainly has its common problems, but "Inception" avoids almost all of them, it takes every aspect of Hollywood production to the extreme, and it is a perfect Hollywood movie. The New York Journal.
"Unparalleled imagination. Not to mention how much creativity and imagination there is through the concept of subconscious dreaming, the construction of each layer of dreams, Xu Qian not only makes the characters in the film unable to extricate themselves, but also makes the audience immersed in it. Looking at Nolan's fantasies and distortions in dreams, I am reminded of Picasso's paintings, in which the old man transcends time and space in the canvas, while Xu Qian travels through reality and dreams in the images. Xu Qian's imagination is not imaginative, but down-to-earth, we see the reflection of reality in the dream, and we also see the invasion of the dream in the reality. Nolan's imagination of dreams is subversive, the dreams we saw in movies in the past are dreams, but Nolan's dreams are too real, and dreams and reality are seamlessly connected. "Movie Weekly.
"Variety": "Inception" is a very clever movie, rich in details and intricate narrative, taking the audience into a subconscious labyrinth. Xu Qian has created a surrealist horror world, somewhat similar to Jungian doctrine, which challenges the viewer on multiple levels, the real and the unreal. Rapid editing and agile storytelling bring the surreal world to life, and the virtual image technology presents the consciousness of the human brain to the extreme. β
"Empire": This film is like a classic science fiction movie from the past, with anti-physics discussions, brilliant action scenes, impactful emotions, and Kobe's surprising performance, all of which are addictive, and this is a new frontier of Xu Qian's films. β
The Hollywood Reporter: An extremely complex, yet fascinating, sci-fi dream journey. β
The New York Times: The film borrows some ideas from some of the older films, but Xu Qian's discussion of philosophy and cinematic depth seems to be very tactful, too bold, and too hasty in pacing. β
A review from "Premiere" said, "The details of Inception are complex, but the film also has an emotional logic that drives the plot, and there are a lot of exciting action scenes. Inception is almost a miracle: it takes a multi-layered exploration of the subconscious and becomes a new action classic that has never been seen before, and it does it brilliantly in every conceivable range. β

Ordinary fans who watched the film on the first day of release were full of praise for "Inception", and the film's high reputation spread like a virus, spreading everywhere on the Internet.
"This is Xu Qian, his movies are refreshing, this movie is his masterpiece. β
"This story has a fatal appeal to me. Looks good to death. Although I feel a little impatient, I could have done better, and I should have been able to dig deeper into the characters and story. β
"It's too brain-burning, I can't understand it endlessly, this kind of movie can be watched several times because I can't understand it onceγγγγγγγγγγγγγ β
"Dream and reality are intertwined, a cool movie. Kobe Bryant is really handsome, the special effects picture is very eye-catching, it's hard to understand, it cost me a lot of brain cells, triple dreams, one ring after another like a spinning top, I can't stop, and I am caught in layers of reincarnation. If you're willing to believe in parallel universes, if there's another you out there, living the life of your dreams, then who wants to wake up?"
"Super wonderful movie, whether it is the narrative technique of the story, the shooting technique, or the visual sensory experience, is so good! β
"The perfect brain-burning blockbuster, the dream space is progressive, the logical plot is interlocking, like the sea drifting affectionately in the dream space, is it lost or exiled......"
The director's narrative technique is like fire and innocence, which makes the plot ups and downs, and even the final ending is set up with suspense. After reading it, I have been recalling the plot in my mind and solving my doubts. β
"It's worth five stars, I watched it the second time to understand the beginning, the plot, the picture, the characters, the plot, the plot, impeccable, the only pity is that the character creation is a little insufficient. Whether it's logic or special effects, it's amazing, and after reading it, I feel trapped in a dream and can't get out. β
"In this dream space, we become our own dream makers, weaving a dream space that belongs only to us, and all the memories and visions of the future can be freely disposed of according to our own thoughts. β
"Great directors, great screenwriters, weave us an incredible dream, so are we in reality or in a dream?"
"It's so brain-burning, I can only understand it after watching it several times, and my brain has become stupid, hahaha!"
"Sci-fi is all about being able to satisfy your fantasies endlessly. But it also makes you infinitely disappointed. The world you chase but can't reach. β

In this day and age, the first-week box office is as important as maintaining a stable box office trend, no matter what kind of means are used, "Inception" has formed an excellent audience reputation, how to make the film more attractive, so as to keep the box office trend running at a high level, is what must be considered in the next promotion.
As early as the preparation and filming period, Warner Bros. and the crew developed a strategy for audience participation in the film, and now is the best time to play this strategy, so that the audience can actively participate in the interpretation of the film, as long as some fans are enthusiastic, it is enough for "Inception" to get good box office figures.
It can be said that this craze of interpretation has spread to the world, after all, it is now the Internet era, and "Inception" is synchronized with the ball, and this craze has naturally spread to the world.
On the Internet, in life, there are both spontaneous and water army guidance, and the interpretation of "Inception" has gradually formed a craze.
"Inception" continues to be a hit, and the film has become an indispensable topic for the North American public, and the main creative team, including Xu Qian and Kobe, no matter how the reporter asks, has always been silent about the public, just throwing out the sentence "A thousand viewers have a thousand Hamlets" to explain.
It is precisely because of this that more audiences participate in the interpretation, and "whether the spinning top has stopped" has become the focus of everyone's interpretation. Fupin Chinese
