Chapter 687: It's ten
Walking out of the theater and saying goodbye to Justin, Daisy looked up at the sky, the sky was dark, just like New York in the film, she looked around, trying to find a figure that looked sunny and chic, but acted crazy, but got nothing, and couldn't help but shake her head, this is not the New York City created by Murphy after all, there are no magicians here!
She was about to leave, when she suddenly found a store specializing in movies next to the theater, so she hurriedly walked in, chose a black dress worn by a magician from the store, and got into the car contentedly despite paying $199 for it. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Sitting in the driver's seat, Daisy didn't start the car, but took out her mobile phone, found the "Dark City" section of IMDB, gave a score of ten without hesitation, and then quickly typed out a short review.
"The role of the magician has raised the bad guys to the level of Satan, because Satan's evil is arranged by God, and there is no need to apologize at all. God doubted Job, so he let Satan do evil to test, so if a bad person is Satan, he doesn't feel that he is a bad person, and his original intention is to question whether the world really has faith and is really beautiful. ”
"Satan means to prove that there is evil in the world, and evil must exist, otherwise even beauty has no value."
"This definition of a magician gives this character a god-like confidence."
"James Franco found that feeling."
After sending it, Daisy turned off her phone and started the car, maybe the magician shocked her too much, she opened the phone again and looked at it, and found that there was another comment about the magician behind her short comment.
"Magicians are different from villains in the traditional sense. In general, when we evaluate a person or an event as evil, we mean that the purpose of the person is not good, or that the person has taken a bad action in order to achieve a certain goal, but this is not the case with magicians, the purpose of the magician's actions is not so clear, and you can't even say what the purpose of the magician is. ”
In fact, the purpose of the magician is to undermine the basic norms of civilized society, and Murphy has previously mentioned in an interview that the magician portrayed by James Franco is essentially anarchist. What are the cornerstones of modern civilization? Social organization in the spirit of contract - the state. The state is the sum of the order of human society, it represents the power of order and planning, while the magician represents chaos and impulse, and the magician is to dismember the existence of human society. ”
"This role is brilliant, and James Franco's acting skills exploded, but the script is even more credited, not so much because James Franco himself turned decay into magic, but because Murphy gave James Franco a great opportunity to completely explode his small universe."
Daisy also thinks that this person has a lot of sense, and this character is very brilliant in terms of setting.
"Murphy Stanton is still the evil Murphy Stanton."
Muttering, Daisy suddenly changed into the magician clothes thrown on top of the co-pilot, imitated James Franco's voice, laughed exaggeratedly, and then started the car and left the place.
At the same time, Leonardo DiCaprio got into his Bentley and instructed the driver to drive while taking out his mobile phone, logged on to Twitter, and casually looked through it, and found that it was full of comments about "Dark City", and these comments were all positive without exception!
"I would have no doubt that Dark City is the best movie! Murphy Stanton perfectly blends business and art, balancing the profound and popular, with a majestic soundtrack, exciting scenes and three-point performances, which completely shake people's feelings. So I would like to say to everyone who hasn't seen it - it's a big shame in your life to miss it! ”
Out of the frenetic atmosphere of the theater and the film, the contradictions of the past returned to Leonardo DiCaprio's heart, he shook his head, this is too exaggerated, is it really so good?
The comments I saw later were still applauding.
"Murphy Stanton's "Dark City" is definitely the new classic of action movies since the beginning of the 21st century, and it is a well-deserved masterpiece worth watching hundreds of times.
There are also some fans who seem to look professional.
"As a crime action movie, the editing style of "Dark City" is very capable, and the accuracy is breathtaking, I think it all comes down to the ingenuity of Murphy Stanton's script, which is simply amazing, and the whole movie is watched without stopping, which makes people deeply sigh that the whole story is so smooth, in the process of watching the movie for two and a half hours, you simply forget the time, and you don't want to watch the time, you don't need more explosions and gimmicks, the plot alone is enough to make you tense every minute."
In addition, there is not a single superfluous line in the whole film, and there is not a single superfluous scene. Even if it is a small detail, it is to pave the way for the plot later, which not only saves the length of the narrative, but also does not appear abrupt, making people feel natural, clean and neat, which is really a model for modern action movies! ”
The more Leonardo DiCaprio watched it, the more he felt that it was not like that, after all, he had just watched the film and knew that fans were not boasting.
"'Dark City' is definitely a technically indisputable blockbuster that portrays humanity to the extreme, not only because of its epicness, but also because it will raise the audience's awareness of summer blockbusters to another level, and soon the entire industry will find that Murphy Stanton's contribution is obvious!"
Sitting on top of the car, Leonardo DiCaprio finally sighed and admitted that the comments of these fans were not exaggerated, and that Murphy Stanton's film deserved such praise, and that this film really ......
He smiled wryly and whispered to himself, "It's really amazing!" ”
Even he can't turn a blind eye to such an outstanding, and it's not that it doesn't exist if he ignores it, the film may be a big hit!
Leonardo DiCaprio is a little worried about "The Great Gatsby" that will be released next weekend, and now that the word-of-mouth explosion of "Dark City" is inevitable, it will definitely draw a strong box office trend in the future, and "The Great Gatsby" will inevitably be affected and impacted.
How can we minimize the impact? Leonardo DiCaprio frowned.
Attack the Dark City? It's obviously not a good idea, and attacking Murphy Stanton and the film is on the opposite side of quite a few fans once they get on the ground.
"There it is!"
Leonardo DiCaprio thought of a way, since the attack failed, he could take advantage of the momentum, borrow the choppy momentum that Murphy Stanton may have later!
He remembers very well that the heroine of "The Great Gatsby", the British actress named Carey Mulligan, was Murphy Stanton's ex-girlfriend!
This is also a very good news hype point in the current environment.
Vin Diesel, who also watched the film in the VIP room, came out earlier than Leonardo DiCaprio and rushed home early.
However, even after returning home, because of "Fast and Furious 6", he is still paying attention to the latest developments of "Dark City", especially various reviews and ratings, which may be related to the box office trend of this film in the future, and will also affect the box office performance of "Fast and Furious 6" this weekend.
Vin Diesel first went to the IMDB website to take a look, and when he clicked on the section of "Dark City", he was a little surprised by the ratings and the number of ratings on it.
In just over half an hour after the film was screened, there were already more than 20,000 user ratings on IMDB, and the average score of "Dark City" was ...... Very!
Vin Diesel subconsciously rubbed his eyes, yes, it's ten!
He put down the mouse and couldn't help but scratch his head, as if there had never been a film that had received a perfect IMDB rating after its release, not even Murphy Stanton's previous films.
A film, even if it is rated by people who like it, has little chance of getting ten points.
Picking up the mouse and dragging it down, Vin Diesel found that there were already tens of thousands of comments in the comment column, and picked the top few and looked at them.
"Murphy Stanton's biggest success is the game between Magic and Chris Dane, which has both exhilarating fight scenes, brain-bending storylines, and even blackening the repressed dark hero, and the plot handling in between is very good. If you face a choice problem, throw it out and let others choose something that can reflect human nature, in fact, a large part of it is promoting a truth, and it is admirable to be able to sublimate it in the plot, which is also the most in-depth of all action movies. ”
Vin Diesel admits that when it comes to the profundity of the theme, all the "Fast and Furious" movies combined can't compare to this "Dark City".
"The theme is dark and profound, and Murphy accurately captures this point, making the film rich, rigorous and cool, both in terms of satisfying the audio-visual and excavating the complex aspects of human nature!"
Subsequently, Vin Diesel went to other websites to read more fan comments, although these are not as direct as the live audience's scores, but they can also reflect the first-line audience's opinion of the film.
Everything he watched made people feel that "Dark City" would be a word-of-mouth and box office hit!
Fortunately, "Fast and Furious 6" passed the first weekend, and if it collided with this film, it would be a big problem.
Vin Diesel is arrogant and domineering, but he is not a fool, and he is glad that his film was not released at the same time as "Dark City".
The night outside is getting darker, but the North American theaters are not quiet.
