Chapter Seventy-Eight: Heaven and Earth

Just like the famous "Honest Trailer" complained about later, the so-called "Pearl Harbor attack" is actually just a foil for a stupid and hypocritical love triangle in the movie.

Because of the reversal of the focus, the movie, which made the audience who originally expected to watch a hearty war and a big bang popcorn movie, quickly become bored by the unbright love scene between Ben Affleck, Kate Beckinsale and Josh Hartnett.

Oh yes. There's also a whole bunch of outdated and vulgar comedy episodes.

And the original so-called rhetoric of wanting to surpass "Titanic" also disappeared, leaving only a copy movie that failed in it.

When people rejoiced at the explosion scene of "Pearl Harbor", "Oh yes——!" "Blow you up!"

And then I thought about it and reacted - hey, it seems like we were beaten by our own people.

Uh("▔□▔)——Damn, I'm on the wrong side!

Who let the exploding shells blow up Pearl Harbor so cool!

There's a saying in Hollywood that you can throw money at you before a movie comes out. But once the film is released, then the rest will all depend on the audience's preferences.

No matter how big the stars and directors are, no matter how rich the company is, they can't change that.

Although the box office results on June 1, "Pearl Harbor" and "Harry Potter" were on par, but the reputation of the two sides among the audience was very different.

While most of the official media reviews won't be released until Sunday, the buzz is already raging on Yahoo forums and MSN portals.

"I don't know how "Harry Potter" is, but yesterday's "Pearl Harbor" really made me unappetizing, and Exploding Bey actually made a war movie into ***, and even the love scene was not good. A netizen left a message on the Yahoo message board.

And his message immediately caused a strong reaction, and some people agreed, "Yes, yes, although the final war scene is very beautiful, but no matter how you look at it, it has a very awkward feeling." ”

Well, in fact, most of them are the "water army" of the fire lions, they hype each other, sometimes agree with each other, and sometimes quarrel with each other.

In short, in just one day, several portals have hotly discussed "Pearl Harbor" and "Harry Potter", although such hype has produced a certain effect in a short period of time, but now that Google has not really become popular, more of a role is still to the audience's own viewing experience.

When the next day's box office results came out, everyone was shocked - "Pearl Harbor" fell slightly to a little over $15 million, but "Harry Potter" immediately rose, closing a single day box office of $34.05 million.

On Sunday on the third day, a large number of movie reviews were freshly released, and the word-of-mouth effect was fully fermented.

"Pearl Harbor" and Exploding Bay have all ushered in a turning point in their careers - the North American media is full of bad reviews, and people related to Disney and the movie, for a while, they can't find a media that is not scolding "Pearl Harbor"!

"The movie was so lackluster that even the Warner Television Network refused to show it because it was light and tasteless. The Los Angeles Daily did not hesitate to complain.

Not far behind, the New York Post says that after 40 minutes of spectacular explosions, hours of predictable cliché romance are served.

Even financial media outlets like the Wall Street Journal have come to join in the fun — "Pearl Harbor" is as deep as a comic, loose story that turns World War II into a silly symphony.

As for the Washington Post, it's very creative, pioneering a new way to complain — the audience should choose a seat next to the aisle because you definitely need to go to the toilet at least twice, and maybe the film should be called "Bore-A!Bore-A!Bore-A!" (a parody of "Tiger Tiger!").

Variety magazine said: "Pearl Harbor is a visually stunning film, but its script is as superficial as that of the actors. ”

"Chicago Sun-Times" left no emotion at all, and gave the film a comprehensive critique - "Pearl Harbor", a boring and old love, and even the handling of war scenes has no depth. More than half an hour of planes bombing ships, explosions, corpses flying in the air, and people fleeing attacks. Meaningless, it was just a terrible massacre that did not move or entertain the audience at all.

was originally regarded by film critics as an explosive shell of the new generation of hopeful stars, but overnight, it became a copy sold by everyone.

All film critics seem to have found a common criterion - scolding Bang Bei if it's okay, it's definitely right!

The harder you scold, the more tasteful you have.

In contrast, "Harry Potter" undoubtedly has the upper hand on the side of praise.

The Chicago Sun-Times, which complained about "Pearl Harbor" in its most comprehensive way, enthusiastically praised this "children's fantasy" on another page - an energetic adventure movie, the atmosphere of the film is full of terrifying atmosphere, but it seems extraordinarily new and refreshing to the audience.

Sidben's "Los Angeles Times" also praised it: "The wizarding world created by Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone can't help but make people sigh that J· K Rowling's imagination, and Sid Leonhardt's creativity. You can fully enjoy Harry's wonders in the wizarding world in the movies. ”

And the New York Daily News did not forget to remind all viewers and everyone that this film (Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone) is just the beginning, just the first part of the original book, and more magical journeys will gradually unfold in the coming years.

The Seattle Post, which also belongs to the West Coast media, also praised Sid's first A-list blockbuster - it can be seen that the film is very interesting and full of great imagination and talent with the careful casting of the film's creators led by Sid Leon.

And because of the murderous complaint of "Bore-A!Bore-A!Bore-A!Bore-A!", the Washington Post, which popularized the vulgarity of "Pearl Harbor" to the world, also praised Sid's film adaptation, which effectively retains the wonderful content of the wizarding world in the book, while also replicating the humorous and funny style of the original book.

Although in the film reviews of "Harry Potter", there are also a few media outlets such as "The New York Times" that intervene and give bad reviews in disguise.

But compared to "Pearl Harbor", the two are definitely a heavenly and an underground treatment.
