"In Those Years, We Were Together"
"Youth is an infectious disease that cannot be cured throughout life, even in old age. Unforgettable youth, inseparable campus love, excess male hormones, and innocent female students who study hard, but when the light goes back, Zheng Chenyu and An Yunjing meet again, we find that this sincere story is so important to both the protagonist and every audience, in the personalized youth writing of director An Yuxi, the film reflects the image of each of us who is familiar with ourselves, and then bursts out the audience's collective feelings for youth.
As a youth film, "Those Years" has always focused on common youth emotions, so it has been able to cause a large-scale boom in South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong and the mainland. Whether it is a hot-blooded brother or the first love of youth, what points to is the worship and praise of youth, those youthful hazy love, sentimentality and confusion, simply and directly embellished in it, there is no cruel story of swords and lights, there is a positive and healthy attitude in a small freshness, just like An Yunjing in the film. However, it is obviously biased to completely classify the film as a "little fresh", Zheng Chenyu often blurts out "foul language", in youth films that have always emphasized a fresh style, these standard heavy scenes can be described as fierce and abnormal. However, it is precisely the confident and reasonable use of heavy tastes that makes the film break away from the freshness of simple warmth and tear-jerking, which is completely what the confident An Yuxi dares to do. The combination of small freshness and heavy taste is perfect, it is difficult for you to strictly distinguish between the two, the audience is not only moved by the small freshness, but also smiles at the heavy taste, the combination of the two, together lead to warm memories, triggering the audience's youthful feelings.
Between brotherhood and campus love, the film is clearly more focused on the latter. The narrative threads with clear priorities effectively guide the audience's emotions to the love story of Zheng Chenyu and Ahn Yunjing. Love is an eternal theme, but it is also the most prone to clichés. In fact, the love in "Those Years" is also composed of some cliché plots, good students and bad students will always be tied into one-on-one mutual support groups and then gradually fall in love, bad boys will always change their tricks to please girls in a masochistic way, and there are always scenes like idol dramas and fighting each other. However, An Yuxi successfully turned decay into magic, turning the cliché plot into a staggered part of the overall narrative, and the pure emotions under the music, shots, and lines successfully resonated.
In fact, whether it is An Yuxi or the audience, it is difficult to clearly describe what campus love looks like and why it can happen, just like Zheng Chenyu doesn't understand why he gave his English textbook to An Yunjing instead of watching her make a fool of herself in public. For Zheng Chenyu, love is to make the originally boring life not boring. However, when his back gradually became accustomed to the unique way of greeting boys and girls in those years, he realized that studying hard had become a very passionate thing, and the reason was that he did not express the ambiguous emotions before speaking. Zheng Chenyu seems to never be mature, he thinks that fighting can best show masculine charm and win the love of girls, An Yunjing hates his self-righteous naivety, but it is difficult to deny that An Yunjing likes this fearless naivety. At the wedding, An Yunjing said to Zheng Chenyu's naivety: Yes.
The wedding passage drew the most perfect exclamation point for the youth of those years, and also made the film reach an emotional peak. Jung Chenwoo and Ahn Yoon-jung didn't come together like a cliché idol drama, and he didn't prove his love by stretching out his feet to trip the groom. Happy newlywed, my youth, I love a girl, and you will sincerely wish her eternal happiness. However, in the end, we still believe in beauty more, and the wishing lamp that drifts away goes to another time and space, where the written questions and answers become vows and will be together forever. ”
Behind this long review, there are also countless comments.
Cangyan:
"Great God, I'm here to worship Great God!"
Lonely Family Messenger:
"Those years, different stories, the same youth.
I watched a movie yesterday and the audience burst into laughter when I saw Zheng Chenyu kissing the groom.
Then the movie replays the memories of the hero and heroine.
Immediately I cried.
I wish they were together. ”
Recent cute CP:
"Everything is the color of youth.
Love is such a thing, I don't know when it will come and I don't know when it will leave.
Many things in life are inherently futile.
I want to be a very good person and make the world a little bit different because of me. ”
A bite against your heart:
"There is novelty and sincerity, there are laughter and tears, a combination of blood and tenderness. Many years later, I will forget what the movie says, but I will not forget the emotion of the time.
The little freshness from the inside is enough to attract many people and bring back a lot of memories. I always think of Zheng Chenyu saying: I am so naïve, I will chase you for so long. Listening to this kind of talk will inexplicably fall into a kind of torrent of time. ”
Water & Flowing Years:
"Youth seems to start because I love you. ”
CLCA:
"There are always many things in life that are in vain, so I like this foreshadowing. ”
Cats who really want to learn to swim:
"The most unforgettable, the simplest. ”
Roll Armor:
"Nima, people who cry after watching movie reviews really can't afford to be sad!"
Ye Shengyun:
"Why can Korean fans watch it in July, but the mainland has to wait until August 20th!
Why can Korean fans watch it in July, but the mainland has to wait until August 20th!
The creek under the apple tree:
"In every boy's heart, there is an An Yunjing. In that 17-year-old scene, like two sides of a blank piece of paper, all your beautiful visions are written on the front, and it is a pity that it is not your regret written on the back. Every time I see your name signed in a movie review, I always hurry to open it, for fear of missing those heartstrings that have not been plucked. As always, it's still so good.
Hand of Constant Shadow:
"The scene where Zheng Chenyu kissed the groom was indeed bursting with laughter, but it just hit my crying point. When I looked at it, I felt sad, and I cried so much that I cried.
How love will want to be close like this.
Fate is like this to joke, isn't it that when you see the other side of Kong Ming's lantern, everything will be different?"
Yaowu 01:
I finally watched the girl we chased together in those years, which has become so popular recently. The cinema is almost entirely full of young people, mostly students, or some viewers who, like me, seem to be ageless, but are actually entering a "post-adolescence". Although there is a bit of an age gap, everyone's laughter and crying are surprisingly consistent, so I can fully understand why this seemingly ordinary youth movie can hit an amazing box office of more than 2 million in 5 days. It has no unexpected plot, no romantic courtship offensive, just an emotional process that a naïve boy insists on for a girl for years.
Zheng Chenyu kept saying to An Yunjing in his mind: "I'm just naïve, so I chased you for so long." “
is such a naivety, let us unknowingly, from the reality that is no longer naïve and naïve, to follow Zheng Chenyu into another parallel time and space where we can do whatever we want.
There, there is our once naïve youth, in our youth, there are dead friends who spend time with us, and in the years when we are inseparable from dead friends, there are boys we like together and girls we chase together. What we deeply like is actually the self who was stupid and naïve at that time, and the companion who was as stupid as himself, but was always willing to accompany his lost companion at a critical moment.
Zheng Chenyu's parallel time and space store our beloved "youth", when you think that the youth that has already traveled far away appears in front of you, you will not look at it as "good" or "bad", but will only describe it with emotional words such as "like" or "dislike". Just like this vivid and natural youth documentary movie, it is not only An Yuxi's youth, Zheng Chenyu's youth, An Yunjing's youth, it is also everyone's youth.
My youth, though not perfect, I love it, and because it is not perfect, it is more real and lovely.
In my eyes, "That year, the girl we chased together was just like my youth." ”
