Chapter Eighty-Five: Rogue Woman
Chapter Eighty-Five: Rogue Woman
Kung fu hip-hop is only part of the film, just like Liang Xiaolong said, it is not the biggest two points of the film, the two biggest points are the role of Gao Gang.
"Let's fight, build a future for Anna." As soon as these words came out, fans applauded, whether it is black boxing or work in reality, men should create a future for women. And Gao Gang at this moment is a pure man, maybe he is still a little stupid, but everyone thinks that his stupidity is a cute stupidity, and the women think that this is a charming stupidity, even Shirley has to admit: "The captain is right, this kind of stupid man can get the favor of women more." ”
How cruel is the black fist of love? The original film's portrayal of underground black boxing is obviously not in place, although Gao Gang played very well at the box office, but there is no trace of life and death fighting, of course, this is also related to the domestic environment. Liang Xiaolong's portrayal in this regard is much more in-depth, not only playing as beautifully as the original film, but also adding three points of violence, every punch and kick is a perfect combination of speed and power, which can frantically impact the audience's audio-visual tension.
After all, the movie is not a real fight, it can be said that the fighting method in the movie is to increase the reaction speed of the protagonist by three or four times, so that the protagonist can choose the best offensive and defensive methods in the first time, so it looks exaggerated than reality, but the audience likes such shots, otherwise they would rather spend more money to watch the fighting match. So when this group of shots appeared, fans began to shout wildly, they liked such bloody battles.
It wasn't until Gao Gang was seriously injured that Anna finally realized that the most important thing was not money, but people, and she began to persuade Gao Gang to quit the underground black boxing world. This is a typical sensational scene, which touched many people, and everyone's senses of the character of Anna have also changed, although she is a very realistic woman, she is also a woman who knows love.
"Practicing martial arts is to strengthen your body and exercise your spirit, and it is to give you the courage to get out of the predicament, not to let you use your fists to make money." "Any idea why you got hurt? Because you are fighting for money, fighting for war, you have lost yourself, how can a person who can even lose himself can gain insight into the opponent? Anna understood, and the captain's words also made Gao Gang understand, the soul of the film finally appeared, and the spirit of martial arts was finally revealed.
The film is over, and fans are reminiscing about the good thing about the film, the crazy kung fu hip-hop dance at the beginning? Is it an exciting battle scene? Is it a stupid boy Gao Gang? Or is it the spirit of Kung Fu? Mark asked, "Shirley, what do you think?" Shirley frowned and thought for a while: "I feel that every link is handled well, but it is a little lacking in focus." Mark nodded: "I also see it this way, things that are too perfect often have flaws, and its flaws are too perfect, in fact, it can be more delicate to portray the image of Gao Gang's silly boy, or the spirit of kung fu." ”
Jessica whispered, "Isn't it perfect?" Shirley said: "Of course, there is nothing wrong with being perfect, but if you strive for perfection everywhere, you will become imperfect." Out of perfection, fans feel that every link is very exciting, and their thoughts immediately enter another link, thus ignoring what the film wants to express. Mark said: "That's the case, that kung fu hip-hop dance and a series of battles behind are very exciting, but if Xiaolong wants to express the spirit of Chinese kung fu, he should appropriately reduce these scenes and depict more of the process of Gao Gang and Anna's heart change." Shirley added: "Just look at the reaction of the fans at the scene, they are still thinking about where the best part of the film is." ”
Julia laughs: "You're all right, but it can't be denied that this is a film that will attract audiences." Moreover, it is very rare to create a film like this for $12 million. Rupert said: "I agree, other factors aside, let another director shoot an action movie with the same effect, the production cost may be doubled." ”
"It feels like there's something more, and it feels like there's something missing, anyway, it just doesn't feel perfect, but what's the flaw?" Hearing the muttering of fans, Liang Xiaolong couldn't help frowning, flawed? Every aspect of the film is handled very well, and fans completely follow the film emotionally during the viewing process, isn't it perfect? Liang Jin patted his son's shoulder: "It's too much." Liang Xiaolong suddenly realized that there was no problem with the filming process and the post-production, the problem was that it appeared in the script, and he had already stepped into a misunderstanding since he adapted the script.
There is too much foreshadowing, in order to set off the image of Gao Ganghui's kung fu hip-hop boy, he arranged a five-minute kung fu hip-hop dance; In order to show the spirit of Chinese kung fu, he also used kung fu as a foreshadowing, which is true, but playing too much and playing too much in detail will give people a feeling of drawing a snake. Therefore, the film is flawed, and the flaw lies in the fact that every link is handled too perfectly, and there is no distinction between priority and subordination.
Ye Ying said: "Son, in fact, you don't have to worry, a well-handled film is not necessarily a high-grossing film, and a defective film is not necessarily a low-box office film." Liang Xiaolong smiled and nodded: "That's right, those blockbusters have more flaws, and they are still popular at the box office, depending on tomorrow's attendance." ”
5.14 said, major media have commented on "Black Fist", the Los Angeles Times wrote: Since "Tomb Robbery", the captain's action guidance ability has been fully affirmed, and the wonderful fight scenes of "Police and Thieves" have caused crazy responses from fans, and similarly, "Black Fist" has also inherited this, and the martial arts scenes are very gorgeous and dizzying. In addition, I have to say that the captain's directing ability has made great progress, "Black Fist" is a very meaningful film, and the captain also expresses his creative intentions well, giving the film a soul.
But "Black Fist" is not a perfect film, too much foreshadowing makes the film flawed, which is also a failure in the captain's screenplay.
Although the content of the Chicago Sun-Times report is not the same, the tone is not so polite, and it is written at the end: As we all know, the captain has a high-yield script, but high production means immaturity. Will we be able to see films like "Uncompromising" and "The Sun Is Like Me" in the future? Perhaps, we should tell the captain that appropriately reducing production and improving quality is the king.
There are flaws in the film, which is recognized by major media, but the early publicity of "Black Fist" is too popular, and almost everyone knows about it in the United States, and many fans are looking forward to its release, is it because the media will not watch it because of a slight flaw? Of course not, there are many flawed films, and there are very few flawless films, as long as the quality is excellent in all aspects, then it is a good film.
On the first day of the premiere, because there were 3,100 theaters, it was impossible to sell out like "Cops and Thieves", but the average attendance rate was as high as 70%, and it won $6 million. However, the highest box office is not "Black Fist", but Warner's "Tornado", which swept $6.5 million like a tornado, and "Tornado" was released a day earlier, and the total box office has reached 13 million, far ahead of the films of the same period in the box office list.
Although Liang Xiaolong was a little depressed about not winning the box office championship, he had nothing to say, "Tornado" is a $90 million blockbuster film, which can bring the audience an unprecedented visual enjoyment. Just imagine, you are playing in the wilderness in the green mountains, and a tornado suddenly forms and floats towards you, how exciting will it be? Of course, "Tornado" is also very reasonable in terms of plot arrangement, so he can steadily surpass "Black Fist".
"Competing with blockbusters, small films always suffer, and good blockbusters are positive, and small films are even more at a loss." Rachel sighed lightly: "I don't think I can see "Black Fist" topping the box office list" Liang Xiaolong smiled: "The champion is not a champion, it's all a false name, and earning money back is the most real, I can't invest in new films without money, and I can only send you out to other directors as a starring role." Rachel gave him a blank look: "You dare, but my dear, are you sure what kind of film you want to make?" Continuing the action movie? ”
Liang Xiaolong hurriedly shook his head, he didn't want people to mention Liang Xiaolong's name in the future and think: That guy, a very powerful action movie director, not other types of films. Moreover, he also needs to transform now, accumulate shooting experience by shooting different films, and prepare for next year's blockbuster film.
Rachel said: "I don't want to shoot action movies anymore, I'm too tired, and Miss Ben's superb acting skills can't be fully utilized." Liang Xiaolong smiled and hugged her: "Niu, you are getting more and more narcissistic." Rachel laughed, "Learn from you, great captain." Liang Xiaolong said: "Then it is estimated that I have eaten too much saliva, so let's have a little more." ”
After playing around for a while, the two talked about business again, and Liang Xiaolong asked, "Baby, tell me yourself, what kind of role do you want to play?" Rachel said, "It's better to be like Erin in 'Uncompromising', I want to challenge Julia." The dragon rolled his eyes: "There is only one Erin, you better make up a script yourself." Rachel pinched him, but it can't be denied that "Never Compromise" is a classic, and such a classic is impossible to copy: "Anyway, my role in the new film must have a surname, which can leave a deep impression on the audience, such as being straightforward and fast-talking, and not keeping the door open." ”
Liang Xiaolong smiled: "Isn't that a stupid woman?" Baby, do you want to act in your true colors? Rachel threw Liang Xiaolong down, pinching and biting him: "Hurry up and think about it, I didn't think about it, don't think I will let you go." Liang Xiaolong couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Baby, you have to prepare materials to write a paper, this is brainless, how do you ask me to conceive?" Rachel stood up and walked straight to the door: "I don't care, I didn't think about it, you will sleep in the living room today, and then come in when you think about it." ”
After speaking, he closed the door and did not take away a single cloud, leaving Liang Xiaolong alone with a wry smile: "Another rogue woman was born." ”
