Chapter 237: The Verge
(Ask for subscriptions, ask for tips!) )
"Boom, boom—"
Not long after the opening, there was silence in the Universal Theater, immersed in the pure roar of cars. Chen Tiandu's opening chapter uses a five-minute opening song, without a single line, accompanied by beautiful music, rendering the image of a group of masters. It's all some quick-cut clips playing, flying cars snatching transport trucks and fuel tankers, shuttling like fish from under the trucks, and vividly describing the images of several speeding car thieves.
"Dominique Terotto." The official picture appeared, but it began with the court: "Sentenced to 25 years in prison and imprisoned in Lombok Supreme Security Prison without early parole." ”
What appeared in front of fans was the familiar scene, Vin Diesel, who was dressed in orange prison clothes and shackled hands, was sentenced to be escorted to prison. This is the first wave of the invigorating trailer, but watching a video on a computer is a completely different concept than watching a movie on the big screen.
Sure enough, the audience, who had a relaxed face just now, quickly straightened their eyes, and they didn't want to move a little, and even their breathing became subtle.
On the desolate asphalt highway, the prisoner car that gradually moved away suddenly "buzz~~" A vigorous, dynamic, and incomparably pure car roar came into the ears of all the audience without warning.
Just like the horn of the charge sounding in the battlefield, the war drums beating in the gladiatorial arena inject a force into all the audience, so that the potential hormones in your body begin to secrete, stimulate the sweat pores all over your body, suddenly stretch out bursts of fine sweat, and your heart can't help but beat a few times, making people's blood boil.
Except for a limited number of people in the entire theater who have seen the whole film. A number of the main creators and high-level executives including the matrix were ordered not to mention it. So they're the same as the audience. It's the first time I've seen a finished film. The theater was silent, no one spoke, and even the occasional cough was automatically ignored for fear of ruining the beautiful dynamic music.
Soon, the tremor conveyed by the roaring sound was in full swing, and the audience once again shifted from the auditory feast to the visual feast, with several luxury cars lined up in a line and then suddenly flashed out of position. It's like a black fish swimming in the water. With the wonderful cooperation of Paul Walker and the young Jordana, Michelle, Chen Kun, Tyrese and others, they successfully flew the prisoner bus unscathed, smashed the bus into a pile of debris, and boomed......
"Hiss~~~" 3,124 fans across the United States gasped uniformly.
Stallone, who was sitting in a movie theater in New York, also shook his head, "No, fake, this can't be done." ”
"Quiet!" Someone suddenly scolded him later, which made Sylvester Stallone stunned, and in retrospect, he was reprimanding himself. Suddenly a wave of anger surged, and I really wanted to turn around and give this guy a punch. But he had to admit it. Chen Tiandu handled this scene very cleverly, using more close-up shots to render the exploding scene, and the roar in the stereo was louder than usual, which would make people look very high.
It wasn't until the prison robbery was over that everyone came to their senses. There is a burst of inhalation, and then swallow a mouthful of saliva, or take the opportunity to take a few sips of water, because they feel dry mouth.
"It's already exciting to watch it on video, but I didn't expect it to be even more exciting to watch the big screen in the cinema."
"I thought I would never have a sense of surprise after watching this trailer more than a dozen times, but I didn't expect to realize the biggest difference between the cinema and the computer when I came to the cinema and was in contact!"
“SO,COOL!”
In the sound of melodious music, it was soon pulled to Rio, Brazil, and the camera skipped behind the icon of Christ, reflecting the golden harbor scenery on the big screen. Exceptionally clear, that's the power of 60mm film. With blue skies, bright and warm sunshine, fresh and humid air, and rolling green forests, the charm of the lungs of the earth is undeniable.
Some critics also watched it with relish, just like the style of Chen Tiandu's films, and the storyline progressed very quickly. They fled to Rio, and after a brief account of life in the slums, the scene was immediately pulled on the train. Dominic is doing his old job again, this time in a thrilling scene of snatching a car on a train.
Million-dollar luxury cars were stolen by miraculous skills, and the unrestrained off-road flatbed trailer was also particularly eye-catching. Soon the two gangs appeared inside, because Dominic was not in the same group as them. After a fierce fight, it also attracted the attention of the police in front of him, and he quickly chased after him.
Dominic saved Paul Walker by jumping off the train in a luxury car at a critical moment. The car was so fast that it rushed straight off the bridge, and the two jumped into the water in mid-air. "Puff", "Puff", flipped up several waves, and then the camera cut to an off-road car that suddenly appeared on the shore, and several machine guns were erected.
"They're caught?"
As a movie focusing on racing, the drag racing scene is naturally unambiguous, focusing on drag racing, electric and flint, far better than the car chase scenes of ordinary action movies.
For most people, drag racing is a unique hobby. It's not a fully physical, sweaty exercise, but the impact and thrill of handling at high speeds are unique. It's hard to describe, but it's fascinating. Probably from the senses to meet the human physical conditions of activities that do not have, such as flying, such as drag racing, are fascinating. As the main character Dom says, "I don't care about business, friends, love and hate, only when I accelerate to 100 miles in 10 seconds, Im-free!" ”
But if this movie is just drag racing, fighting speed and skills, then it is estimated that it is not much different from "Life and Death Speed" and "Need for Speed". But Chen Tiandu has no new ideas, he is never satisfied and elegant, but cleverly integrates drag racing scenes into action scenes. Critics quickly realized what he was good at, and it immediately felt different, and the purpose was clear.
"No wonder he wants to say that "Life and Death" is not enough, now it is estimated that no one will think of "Life and Death"!"
"Wow!" The dimly lit screening room was filled with exclamations and laughter.
"We're going to do this and wash our hands." "Are you crazy. There is a police station. "There's a hundred million dollars." "What. What the. 100 million dollars?! "I did it!" Soon everyone knew how much 100 million dollars were piled together.
The large safe, full of green bills, made people swallow, "It can't be all true." ”
Dwayne Johnson appeared, and as soon as he appeared, he was domineering, especially the armored combat vehicle. In "Fast and Furious", he grows a little beard and looks more mature. He hired a beautiful policewoman as an assistant: "Listen up, we're hunting professional drivers, they like speed, they dare to take risks, and they are all ready." After finding them, they will not be left behind, and the most important thing is that they must not be allowed to enter the car. The criminals escaped for 10 hours and went into action. ”
A local Brazilian policeman came over and was stunned when he saw the armored car coming off the plane: "Sir, just arrest two people." Is it worth it? ”
Johnson blurted out his lines very quickly, and when he heard it, he was a capable guy who was not easy to mess with. As he walked, he said: "These two people are not simple, one is a former federal agent who knows our actions well. The other is a career criminal, who has escaped from prison twice and is best at evading the pursuit of your police. ”
"If there's anything you can help ......"
"Two things, one, I need a translator."
"We have a lot of ......"
"Aliana Nevis."
A stack of materials was opened in the footage, and a big beauty appeared, and some people in the theater immediately laughed. "Why are you looking for her, we have a lot of good officers."
Johnson said justifiably: "I like her smile...... The second thing, stay-the-fuck-out-of-my-way! (English has not passed level 4, who will help translate it.) )
"Wow~~" Some people in the audience couldn't help but almost whistle, this character is so cool. Johnson, who was watching the movie, also laughed, he liked this appearance. It's a completely different experience from the octagon, where you don't need to show your naked upper body and howl like an orangutan to win the applause of the audience. I didn't feel much before, but now that I think about it, I feel more and more like a stripper in Las Vegas waiting to be rewarded.
"I love this opening." He said, and couldn't help but think of the NG again and again on the set, and Chen Tiandu yelled at him to speed up his speech, and now that he thinks about it, it's worth it.
Chen Tiandu in the front row heard him talking to himself, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Johnson's character is certainly domineering, and Vin Diesel's team is not bad. The story thread is displayed in an orderly manner, and Jason Statham, the mastermind behind the third line, is also slightly revealed, making it impossible to guess how the plot will develop later. It is worth mentioning that Jason Statham was not able to attend the premiere today because French director Luc Besson is tailoring the action film "Very Human Trafficker" for him, and Chinese actress Shu Qi is also starring. He felt very sorry for this, and called Chen Tiandu to apologize.
This is off-topic, anyway, now the audience in the theater has been completely hooked by Chen Tiandu's story.
They never knew that this movie could be so fascinating without Chen Tiandu starring. The story unfolds quickly, without dragging, and the action scenes are classics.
Before they could finish their sighs, they soon entered the next wave of high-tide plots, how to snatch a huge safe of $100 million from the police station.
"I've heard of robbing a bank, but it's really the first time I've heard of robbing a police station?"
"Robbing a police station, can it be successful?"
And the mastermind behind the scenes, Owen Shaw, seems to be involved in the deal that the Brazilian gangster giant is accomplishing, and he is a ruthless character. And on the side of Interpol Dwayne Johnson, the elite team used those dazzling technologies that made the audience feel unaware of the power to find Dominic's entire team from the clues.
The form is about to be triggered, which makes the audience worried: "Found by Interpol, can they successfully snatch the money from the police station under the pursuit of these cattle people?" ”
Unconsciously, the audience's hearts have been completely hooked, and even Stallone, who walked into the cinema with a harsh eye, will not pay attention to other problems, he has not seen the trailer, so he is a little looking forward to how they will snatch this safe.
- He soon found out. (To be continued......)
