This year's Spring Festival is later than in previous years, and February 19 is the first day of the Lunar New Year. This also makes the movie New Year from the end of 2014 to the New Year of the Goat the longest since the birth of this concept. From the first shot of "Taiping Wheel" in early December to the tenth day of the Lunar New Year on February 28 next year, a total of about 50 movies have been released in a three-month New Year.

This year's Lunar New Year file is another year of famous directors and blockbusters, John Woo's "Taiping Wheel", Jiang Wen's "One Step Away", Ning Hao's "Country Teacher", Tsui Hark's "Outwitting Tiger Mountain", Gu Changwei's "Micro Love" and other movies all intend to get a piece of the pie.

Last year, the peak of the century swept the entire Lunar New Year file with "Exotic" and "Nine-Story Demon Tower", and the beat was so bad that he lost his armor; this year, the peak of the century has Ning Hao's "Country Teacher", Cheng Long's "Heavenly General Hero", and "Seven Shells" Three movies were released, which are still the big hits of the king of the Lunar New Year stalls.

However, this year, Wanda has become a lot stronger, not only holding the three domestic blockbusters "One Step Away", "Outwitting Tiger Mountain", and "Macau Fengyun 2", but also holding the Hollywood blockbuster "The Hobbit 3: The Battle of the Five Armies".

When "Red Cliff" directed by John Woo was released a few years ago, the box office won the runner-up in the Lunar New Year file at that time, and this time, "Taiping Wheel", which gathered six superstars such as Takeshi Kaneshiro and Zhang Ziyi, naturally attracted much attention, and many people predicted that the box office would be more than 800 million.

However, what is surprising is that after the official release on Tuesday, December 2, the cumulative box office of "Taiping Wheel" in six days was only 110 million yuan, which was surprisingly bleak, and the romance film "Hurry That Year" released on December 5 achieved a box office of 220 million in just three days, easily taking the championship.

Many media are lamenting that the times are really different, and John Woo's war and love masterpiece lost to a youth film; many people are applauding the fiasco of "Taiping Wheel", after all, John Woo's suppression of mainland actors can be said to be well known; and some people think that the audience doesn't like to watch the theme of the Republic of China, the Republic of China is too far away from now, and the audience has no sense of substitution.

However, the statement that the theme of the Republic of China is not popular has been refuted by many people, especially Jiang Wen fans. "One Step Away" has been on pre-sale since early November, and the pre-sale amount has reached 120 million yuan now. Judging from the performance and popularity of "One Step Away", it is clear that it is going for 2 billion. Therefore, they think that it is not that the theme of the Republic of China is unpopular, but that it is a problem with the quality of "Taiping Wheel".

"One Step Away" producers Ma Ke and Jiang Wen are also full of confidence in their films, and they said in an interview that "One Step Away" is for the Chinese New Year champion, and no one can snatch it!

However, on this night, reporters from major media across the country received a notice from "One Step Away" at the same time: the world premiere of the film was temporarily cancelled, and there will be another notice when it will be held. The reporters were stunned, they rushed to Beiping from other places for the premiere of the movie, and now they suddenly cancel the premiere, isn't this a trick?

Soon, an "insider" broke the news on the Internet that "One Step Away" did not pass the censorship and may not be released on time; Immediately afterward, someone exposed a review opinion on the movie "One Step Away" on the Internet, including the existence of low-level vulgarity in the lines, ridicule of classics and ancient and modern historical celebrities, sexual innuendo and other issues that need to be modified.

"One Step Away" is one of the films that attracts the most attention from fans during this year's Chinese New Year, and it is also a big production of Jiang Wen's four years of sharpening a sword. While scolding the General Administration, netizens sent their blessings to "One Step Away": "Good things are grinding!", "Good food is not afraid of being late!", "Mourning soldiers will win!"......

Zhang Ran admired the indignant reaction of netizens, when "Let the Bullets Fly" was released, some sailors claimed that **** finally understood, and let the bullets fly was going to be banned, if you didn't see it, watch it quickly, but in the end there was no. Playing the same trick this time, I didn't expect so many people to believe it, and it is estimated that there will be movies that can't be judged in the future!

While claiming that the film has not passed the review, the promotion of "One Step Away" is in full swing. The premiere of "One Step Away" was canceled, but some theaters and industry insiders still watched the film in advance. Many people who have seen the movie have stood up and applauded the movie. Screenwriter Shi Hang praised the film on Weibo as Jiang Wen's most romantic work: "The strength of the whole film is love and disdain for consummation, that is, one step away, and he refuses to cross it until death." Let's take a look at it if you're not convinced ”

Film critic Zhou Liming said: "Jiang Wen's "One Step Away" has all kinds of madness, all kinds of banter, all kinds of teasing, all kinds of tributes, borrowing and wanton play, hearty, very happy, but not low at all. It should be the most entertaining of Jiang Wen's works. ”

Jiao Xiongping, a well-known film scholar in Taiwan, said: "With the power of an image like an atomic bomb, it has become a dazzling spectacle of visual sound, and it is sure to be a blockbuster for the Chinese New Year! China is such a maverick Jiang Wen." ”

The insider's praise has whetted the audience's appetite to the extreme, and many people believe that "One Step Away" is a "god film" comparable to "Let the Bullets Fly", and it is a movie that can be watched coolly.

On December 12th, the good news that "One Step Away" "passed the review" finally came, and the decision that the film review had been passed was exposed on the Internet, and the film party "finally" got the dragon mark, which means that the release on December 18 is a sure thing. Jiang Wen himself also ridiculed this experience: "Everyone sit down and don't move, the cook Lao Jiang is about to uncover the pot, and the good rice is about to be served with the smell of the pot!"

On the evening of December 15, the world premiere of "One Step Away" was held in Beiping. Judging from the final effect of the whole film, in this "game of censorship", although "One Step Away" paid the price of the delay in its premiere, it finally passed the review and kept its thighs, and the articles that were ordered to be cut by rumors and Na Ying were also saved.

The filmmaker spent hundreds of millions of dollars on publicity for "One Step Away", and the media present naturally praised all kinds of things, what gorgeous pictures, what wild imagination, what romantic and wanton emotions, as if a masterpiece was really about to be born.

However, on the Internet, there are quite a few netizens who give bad reviews. Netizen Wei Weishan Nonferrous said directly: "Zhang Yimou has "Three Guns", Feng Xiaogang has "Private Custom", Chen Kaige has "Wuji", and Jiang Wen has "One Step Away". ”

Netizen Xiao Feixia said: ""One Step Away" was expected to be the year, but in the end disappointed. The visuals are ok and fantastic. I really don't want to say it's the bad movie of the year, but it's really hard to watch. The ginger pattern that is too confident, the media that is too god-making, and the forced style that is too clear and too high and too far away from the earth. The story and lines are too boring to be saved. Madness is madness, rhapsody is rhapsody, romance is romance, and paradox is absurdity, but it is 100 "Do Not Disturb" away from "Let the Bullets Fly". ”

Filmmaker Wu Zhishuo said on Weibo: ""One Step Away" is almost nothing but the soundtrack, this is a love song and dance film, and the level is even inferior to Jay Chou's "Rooftop Love". I feel that Jiang Wen was praised by the media, and he didn't take the audience in his eyes after his self-confidence was highly inflated, so he filmed such an extremely narcissistic individualistic psychotic work. 5 points, the degree of narcissism is comparable to Feng Xiaogang's "Private Custom" last year. ”

Jia Nan, the host of Golden Eagle Radio, commented: "The director's thinking and the audience's thoughts are not on the same planet at all! I used to think that Jiang Wen was the director closest to Zhang Ran in China, but now it seems that the gap between the two is more than one step away!"

However, almost all the people who said that "One Step Away" was not good were frantically besieged by Jiang Wen's fans, and fans asked these audiences who said badly, do you understand the movie?

On December 18th, "One Step Away" was officially released, and the movie broke the zero-point field record of "Small Times 1" with a zero-point premiere box office of 27.85 million yuan, approaching "Transformers 4" and making a good start. However, after the zero point show, a large number of negative comments appeared on the Internet, such as "boring to yawn", "this film is a real waste of 3D", "sketches, cross talk, a combination of two-person turns", "not a movie like a drama" and other comments abound.

After the movie was officially released the next day, there were even more negative reviews. On Douban, "One Step Away" only has a score of 6.5, and the angry audience on Maoyan scored an ultra-low score of 5.5, you must know that "Little Times" has 7 points on Maoyan, and the reputation of "One Step Away" has completely collapsed.

On Weibo, on Tieba, on Douban, and in many online communities, there are insults to "One Step Away" everywhere: "I have never been able to let myself sleep for nearly an hour with peace of mind and peace of mind like watching a movie this time, and I watched it for ten minutes with my eyes open, and it was not over! I slapped my ass and left! I really couldn't watch it! When I left, a quarter of the audience had already left." After I came out, I was surrounded by all kinds of disappointments and scoldings! The first movie in my life that made me completely desperate for movies!"

"One step away, nonsense! No plot, no clue, no meaning, no jokes! The friends who went with me were either troublesome or sleeping. It's the first time I've seen such a bad movie! I went to the name of Jiang Wen, but I came out and swept away my interest, such a bad movie is incorrigible!"

"I've seen the worst movie, and I think that investors investing in this kind of movie are too Nima to take money and not make money, whether it is too much money to burn, or want to launder money. From beginning to end, there is no joke in the comedy, and there is no suspense in suspense, it is to kill a woman running around, like being mentally ill, and what does it mean to express human nature. I go, who doesn't understand it so shallowly, I can magnify so many times and express it with so many obscure things. said that he couldn't understand it, but in fact, he didn't understand the plot, he couldn't understand what he wanted to express, and this film was not profound, it was just a bit pretending and neurotic, and he moaned without illness. ”

Of course, Jiang Wen fans don't want "One Step Away" to become Jiang Wen's Waterloo, so they have come out to wash their whitewash, and the level of Wanda's employment has also been dispatched on a large scale: "I waited for "One Step Away" for nearly three years, and I was not disappointed, this movie is an epoch-making creation. In fact, Jiang Wen's film can be understood as a container such as a cup, only half of it, and the other half depends on the level of the audience. ”

"Since "Sunny Days", Jiang Wen's every homework is so good! Jiang Wen is like a willful child, never catering to the audience, he presents his obsession with art in the film, this is the difference between an artist and a speculator, and the people's expectations for "One Step Away" with commercial films and Chinese New Year films, no wonder disappointed!"

However, the whitewashing of fans and water armies could not save the defeat, and due to the impact of a large number of bad reviews, "One Step Away" performed average on the first day, only achieving a box office of 110 million yuan.

The performance of the movie has made many people feel worried, Ning Hao's "Country Teacher" will be released in five days, plus small films such as "Micro Love" will grab the box office, and it may be very difficult for the box office of "One Step Away" to reach 1.5 billion.

Shortly after the box office of "One Step Away" came out on the first day, the peak of the century suddenly announced that from 7 pm tomorrow, "The Country Teacher" will start a large-scale screening.

Many people were shocked when they heard the news, "One Step Away" received a flood of bad reviews, but because there were no competitors, they could still make a lot of money. But now that "The Village Teacher" has suddenly started large-scale screenings, how many people still watch "One Step Away"? "One Step Away" is over!
