Chapter 748: No Novelty

Chapter 748 has nothing new

As the finale of Jiangxia's gambling film, the release of "The Gambler" made many film critics very cautious. Lewen.

Jiang Xia used "The Saint of Gambling" to pit them before, and he still remembered it vividly, with deep memories and palpitations, and countless film critics were disgraced by Jiang Xia.

Therefore, for the release of "The Gambler", many film critics bought the midnight show, but they were very cautious, for fear of being cheated by Jiangxia again.

To what extent is caution?

After the midnight show, there was not a single review.

Except for some sporadic comments from some viewers, there is very little news about "The Gambler" on the entire Internet.

"The gambler is not bad, and it is very fun to watch. ”

"It's worth the fare. ”

"It feels like the gambler is the sequel to the God of Gamblers. ”

"Mr. Jiang is still a gambling saint, I don't feel new. ”

"Mr. Jiang acted well. ”

"Who is that Long Jiu? It's beautiful, and the action scenes are also very good. ”

"The villain played by Mr. Xiang, why is it not surprising at all. ”

……

The reaction of the zero point field was average, which made many people have a doubt, is Jiangxia's "Gambler" going to hit the street?

Even fans of "God of Gamblers" and "The Saint of Gamblers" have a little doubt at this time, this "Gambler" is in the trailer, and it can be clearly seen that it is a sequel to "God of Gamblers" and "The Saint of Gamblers".

The first day passed, and there were no film critics commenting, they were waiting, waiting for the box office results, many people had already written out the film reviews, just waiting for the box office of the first day to come out, and then sent them out. Some even watched "The Gambler" several times in a row in one day just to watch more of this movie to see if Jiang Xia had any hidden tricks.

On July 13, the box office of "The Gambler" came out on the first day, which was worth breaking 100 million.

This result is very ordinary, quite ordinary.

The release time of "The Gambler" is relatively flattering, there is no blockbuster in front, there is no blockbuster in the same period, the most recent blockbuster is a Hollywood blockbuster, which was released on July 20, eight days later than "The Gambler".

In eight days, if "The Gambler" is a little stronger, it may even get a box office of one billion.

It's not impossible, the kind of movie that breaks 400 million in one day and 1 billion in two days doesn't exist. However, Jiangxia's "The Gambler" is not that possible, everyone's estimate of "The Gambler" should be around 170 million on the first day, and it will definitely exceed 150 million.

In a year and a half, the gambling film has become more mature, and the fans of the first gambling film have become more and more. Jiangxia's two gambling films hit the box office of 2 billion, which is currently the most successful gambling film, and the rest of the gambling films can only be regarded as guaranteed to make a slight profit, even if it is the gambling film "The King of Sparrows" produced by the same Hengying, it can only maintain a slight profit, and Jiang Xia's level of releasing a bomb is not the same concept at all.

With the foundation of the first two gambling films, the box office of the third part on the first day, without 200 million, it feels like it should hit the street.

Considering the summer time period, Jiang Xia was discounted, and I felt that there should be about 170 million, but the answer sheet handed over by "The Gambler" was 100 million, not even a fraction of 10 million.

Seeing the results of "The Gambler", the film critics were completely relieved, and on July 13, all the film critics released the film reviews, and the Internet, which had been silent for a day, was occupied by "The Gambler".

It's not the praise that many fans expect, and it's not even a mixed bag, but a bad review.

Film Critic "Grunt Rumbling Water" - "The Gambler: The Fallen Circle of Money"

The box office myth of "God of Gamblers" is still in front of us, the new comedy of "The Saint of Gambling" has not yet been created, and each of Jiangxia's works seems to be able to bring you a different experience. Everyone is looking forward to Jiang Xia's third gambling film "The Gambler" to bring us a different feeling again, but Jiang Xia has fallen.

"The Gambler" is the finale of Jiang Xia's gambling film, but it does not have the quality that a finale should have. From the very beginning of the film, it is full of strong commercial flavor.

The return of Daozi and Longwu reminds everyone of the glory of "God of Gamblers", the gambler after a year of practice, his gambling skills have increased greatly, but his personality has not changed, and he is still the knife boy we are familiar with. It's just that the appearance of the villain Hussein made me smell familiar. Isn't this the sequel routine that Xiangjiang Movies is most familiar with?

Ah Xing and the third uncle are still so funny, the dignified world gambling king, the owner of the special function of the gambling saint, was abused by the knife boy on the gambling table, which is indeed a bit unreasonable.

The gambler has inherited the advantages of the God of Gamblers, and also inherited the advantages of the Gambling Saint, logically speaking, this is a good movie, but I only saw perfunctory.

The storyline is relatively cliché, we see the familiar nothing in "God of Gamblers", and we see the familiar special functions in "The Saint of Gambling" disappear.

The only highlight of the whole film is that in the final gambling round scene, the casino is shown in an all-round way, as well as the special function battle, but other than that, there are no other highlights.

Jiangxia's continuous innovation seems to have fallen into a bottleneck, unable to innovate new things from gambling films, no wonder he said that he only created three gambling films, which turned out to be a bottleneck in creation.

We have high expectations for Jiang Xia, but this "Gambler" can only be regarded as a qualified commercial movie, not as good as Fang Ye's gorgeous acting skills in "God of Gamblers", and not as good as the extremely funny character creation in "The Saint of Gamblers". "The Gambler" takes the median value, so "The Gambler" is a movie that is not brilliant and very mediocre.

Jiang Xia's movies always seem to have his purpose, "Star Wish" has touched countless audiences, "God of Gamblers" has introduced a new theme, and "The Saint of Gambling" seems to be his attempt to create a new comedy, but what can we see in "The Gambler"? We can only see the inheritance of the first two or more, and that's it.

Compared with other gambling films, "The Gambler" is excellent, but that's all, compared with other movies, compared with Jiang Xia's own two gambling films, this movie is mediocre, and it is Jiang Xia's work to lower his profile to make money.

That's right, I firmly believe that "The Gambler" is Jiang Xia who gave up the ethics of the creator to make money.

Film critic "Red Plum in the West Water Country" - "Jiangxia's Creative Heart is Tired"

As a creator, he has his own creative cycle, Jiang Xia is a singer, an author, a screenwriter, an actor, and a director...... These identities all mean that he is a creator, and he also has his own creative cycle.

Since his debut in Jiangxia, he has created a lot of things, and he can maintain such a high level of creative ability, I admire it, and at the same time, I am worried that his creative bottleneck should also come, and sure enough, "The Gambler" is here.

In fact, before "The Gambler", there were signs of this, his updates became slower, his songs no longer all came out of the MV, and he didn't even direct and write the screenplay, which is a lazy behavior, and it also proves that his creative bottleneck has come. That's why we see "The Gambler", a work that is a little creative, but more leftovers.

As a sequel to the series, it is difficult to come up with new ideas, and it is difficult to jump out of the scope of the previous work. Jiang Xia did a good job before, the movie "The God of Gamblers" can not see the shadow of the previous work "God of Gamblers" at all, in "The God of Gamblers", "God of Gamblers" has become a myth and a legend. The addition of special functions in "The Saint of Gambling" allows us to see more possibilities for gambling films. In my guess, "The Gambler" should also be a brand new movie, and Jiang Xia once again added different gambling elements, which is eye-catching.

But no.

I ate at the same restaurant, and I ate the first meal, it was a brand new dish, it was delicious, and everyone liked it very much. So I came to eat the second meal, and the restaurant changed the recipe, and the taste was peculiar, and it was also very good and delicious. Then I came a third time, and when I was waiting to change the menu again, the restaurant spliced half of the first meal and half of the second meal together for the third meal. Naturally, it tastes good, because I have already eaten it, but I am not happy because I have not eaten a new dish.

"The Gambler" is the third meal, it has its advantages, in the same type of film, it is an absolute masterpiece, and even in this year's film, it should be a masterpiece, but it also makes people feel that something is missing, what is missing is Jiang Xia's creative aura.

This is Jiang Xia's creativity has fallen into a bottleneck, and he no longer pursues new ideas, but begins to pursue the box office, falling into clichés, and it is a pity to see a talented creator get into the eyes of money.

I really hope that Jiangxia can quickly overcome the creative bottleneck, bring forth the new, and let us see more possibilities for movies.

Film critic "has grass on his head" - "The Gambler: A Qualified Comedy"

If I were to rate "The Gambler", I would only give four points, and there are still three points of these four points for the sake of the face of the sequel to the first two movies, and the remaining one point for the last cruise casino, which is very complete, so that people like me who have never been to a casino can see what a real casino is like.

Then, there is nothing new in this movie, and even I feel that I feel like I have re-watched "The Saint of Gambling", and the laughter is still the same joke, and the funny way is the same. Jiang Xia completely copied the performance in "The Saint of Gambling", took the whole crew to play together, and made such a comedy.

Jiang Xia relied on his own strength to shoot the whole movie well, we can see that Jiang Xia filmed very carefully, and some details are also in place, but this can't cover up the inherent flaws of this movie, there is no novelty. The movie is a good movie, and the actors' acting skills are also online, if I have to watch it twice, I won't watch it, but if I see it on TV one day, I think I will watch this movie, it is a qualified comedy, if it is excellent, it is a bit not.

……

Film critics have thrown out their own film reviews on the Internet, and it is a bad review of "The Gambler", and the main point around it is that "there is no novelty", and the sequel is not innovative enough, which is a bit of a money circle through the shell of the first two films.

The evaluation is actually very pertinent, but for such an evaluation, some people are not happy.
