Chapter 391: Beautiful Thriller
Chapter 391: Beautiful Thriller
ps: Old friends give Liha a monthly pass, and strive for a big addition!
In late September, when "Independence Day" and "Tornado" were almost finished and warmed up, "Scream" and "Born of the Dragon" were released worldwide at this time when there were no competitors for the time being. ćwwwćwww
These two films may not have much of an impression among the average movie fan, especially the latter, unless you are particularly fond of Stallone, and "Scream" is relatively much better, it is probably a meal for many fans who like horror movies.
"Dragon Born" is still the kind of American hero movie, but there is no fighting, only a silent test of human nature, in the collapsed tunnel, the former captain of the lifeguard team as the focus and core, but also everyone's spiritual pillar, through action to unite everyone, let everyone build confidence, and then lead everyone to successfully overcome difficulties and escape.
This is the first time Dillon has cooperated with Chen Jin, his image is very consistent, and his acting skills are even more important to Chen Jin, although Dillon has gradually faded out of the Hong Kong Island film industry, however, when he saw the script of this film, he immediately agreed, according to him, it is really not because of any Hollywood release, but because the characters in the film are very ordinary, very real, and very moving.
LinkedIn The superhero in the film is no longer an omnipotent policeman or an invincible agent, he is the representative of the blue-collar workers we see most often in our city, they are ordinary people, but they have a great heart - the glory of the New York Times overseas.
There are no gangsters, no killers, no terrorists, of course, there are no guns and ammunition, fight and kill, everyone's enemy is the omnipresent darkness, the omnipresent natural danger, but all this is not as good as the fear in the heart, the despair of the future, this is a thrilling movie with psychological thrillers, the movie of human nature is played to the extreme, if we overcome the psychological darkness, fear, how to unite and love, how to trust, how to have a heart that is not willing to give up, all of this, let us feel deeply - "Hollywood Chronicle" Mill Truss
The plot is simple and profound, the scenes are simple and profound, and the characters are simple and profound, this is the first time that King has shown us with his delicate and unique heart In the face of disaster, before our demons, our bright direction is actually in our hearts - "Rolling Stone"
The audience has seen too many super cops, super thieves, super agents, and omnipotent guys flashing on the movie screen, which is also prone to visual fatigue, and it is obvious that "Born of a Dragon" looks closer to life and makes everyone feel more intimate.
As many viewers said in interviews, it looks more real, and even they have a lot of friends around them who are engaged in firefighting, rescue and other teams like in the movie, which makes them feel great, and they feel that heroes are actually ordinary.
Chen Jin said in an interview that in fact, these people who are engaged in ordinary work are the biggest heroes of the whole city, and they have been silently dedicating themselves to the whole city, and they are also the most respectable people.
"Born of a Dragon" has a very good plot, close to life, and also has tense and exciting scenes, although not as hot as most blockbusters, but it also has a specific market, in the first week, the box office in the United States was also 11 million, and the global box office was 26 million.
"Born of a Dragon" received a good response, and "Scream" was a surprise to all horror fans, and the media response was basically positive, and even "San Francisco Chronicle" rarely gave praise - although it inherited the model of thriller serial killing, the handling of the plot is good enough, and most importantly, the film has a human exploration of the modern criminal psychology, just like the two murderers in the movie, they have no real reason to kill, just a psychological distortion, Even simply for the pursuit of excitement, all this is the biggest reason why we are frightened, and it is also worth thinking about. ā¦,
The classic soundtrack and the hysterical screams of the woman, the always confusing horror murder bureau, and even the ingenious use of the plot rules of the horror film summarized by the actors themselves to increase the horror and thrilling atmosphere. When students sit around watching a horror movie, and the killer is actually killing just as they say he is, the audience's nervousness is immediately lifted - Chicago Sun.
Probably no one thought that the director of this film was Tsui Hark, but Chen Jin just found him, and Tsui Hark gave him the book again, and said that it was a horror movie, but surprisingly didn't say anything, just took the book back, and two days later, he handed over a movie in his hand to Cheng Xiaodong and them, and concentrated on filming a theme that was very unfamiliar to him.
As Chen Jin said to Shi Nansheng in private, Tsui Hark is not the kind of director who has the shackles of directorial style, he is a genius who can quickly integrate any style of film and has his own ideas.
Tsui Hark really didn't disappoint Chen Jin, just after taking the beginning, Chen Jin didn't stare at him anymore, but let him play at will, except for one point, that is, let Shi Nansheng manage him, don't exceed the budget too much.
The fear of "Scream" does not come from, for example, a dark and dilapidated room, an uninhabited island, or a silent wild, etc., as Roosevelt said - "the greatest fear is the fear itself", which sounds awkward, but whether you admit it or not, the fear in the human heart is the cause of the greatest fear, and sometimes, it can drive you crazy.
Tsui Hark grasped this very well, and with the just right soundtrack, and the screams of the woman, from the current point of view, he is really good, terrifying and amazing.
King Chen, Tsui Hark, horror films, can you think of anything, if it weren't for "Scream", I can't imagine that one is a genius screenwriter who has never written a thriller, and the other is a famous director who has never made a horror film, but they have teamed up to dedicate us a wonderful thriller, which is probably the best commentary on the definition of genius - "Entertainment Unlimited" Shagang Wolf
"Scream", belongs to our Hong Kong film, because of it, I suddenly found out that King Chen's footprints are still on Hong Kong Island, although we still continue to see this playboy news from various media, but it has been a long time since I saw him
It is undeniable that King Chen is indeed a genius, but what I am more curious about is that there is really such a dark psychology hidden in his so bright and dazzling heart, well, I admit that I am obsessed, perhaps, this is just an evil idea that he heard the screams of a woman in his arms one night, and the ubiquitous woman screamed, well, it was terrifying - "Xingwen Week" half a pig-killing knife
Now the stars on Hong Kong Island are very proud to be able to participate in Chen Jin's films, which not only means that you are very likely to fall into Chen Jin's eyes and become popular from now on, but also represents immediate financial benefits, and Chen Jin's remuneration is always very generous; Of course, another reason is to be able to come to Hollywood while the film is being promoted, and if you are lucky, if you are interested in some directors and producers, then you can participate in some real Hollywood productions with the help of Chen Jin.
The main creators of "Scream" including Tsui Hark, Sister Fang, Qiu Shuzhen, Liming, Jacky Cheung and others have come to the United States, and the schedule is only three days, one day in Los Angeles, one day in Miami, one day in New York, today is the last day, after the evening publicity activities, Chen Jin took time to accompany them.
Because of Sister Fang's relationship, there is a private jet transfer, everyone is not too tired, everyone hasn't seen each other for a while, brother and Fa Ge also came over to get together, in addition to them, there is another person, who is still a beauty, and Chen Jin is also familiar with, that is Lian Junying's little princess. ā¦,
She had just finished releasing a Chinese record in early September, and she had no other job, and now that she was idle, Chen Jin asked her to come to New York to play for a while, and she naturally followed Sister Fang over happily.
After eating the dinner made by Chen Jin himself, everyone sat on the spacious balcony and chatted, and when talking about the movie that was being released, Liming looked at Chen Jin, who was holding Lian Junying in his arms, with a comfortable and comfortable face, and said angrily: "This guy seems to be deliberate, he has not been looking for me, as soon as he looks for me, he will get such a role, at the beginning, my agent didn't let me take this play." ā
He is a high-quality idol, taking on the role of a perverted murderer, it sounds like it will damage his image, Tsui Hark didn't talk much, but at this time he smiled and continued: "You don't want to take it, I heard at the beginning that you were asked to play, I don't want to direct it," and then glanced at Chen Jin, "Now I have to say that Ah King's eyes are more poisonous than mine, and if I change the second one, I really don't have the dramatic effect like yours." ā
Everyone laughed, and Jacky Cheung answered, "I'm used to ruining him, I've never given me a good role for so long." ā
"You two are really not satisfied." Chen Jin pursed his lips and affectionately fed a cherry to Lian Junying to eat, this girl is not so easy to be shy now, "I don't bother to tell you." ā
Then turned to Tsui Hark, "I still told Director Xu, I think, sometimes movie casting is very important, just like this time, Leon looks handsome and stupid, while Brother Xueyou looks a little vicious, this kind of collocation makes the conflict effect of the drama better played, and there is also a mixture of unexpected and unexpected, this is the best effect." ā
Liming was very dissatisfied with Chen Jin and said that he was stupid, "What is stupid, is it good to be elegant." Chen Jin joked, "I know you're not stupid, you're just a Sven beast with a sheep's skin on the outside." ā
smiled and caught a cherry thrown by Liming with his mouth, smiled and said thank you, and then pointed at Sister Fang and Qiu Shuzhen, "Horror movies, the biggest conflict effect is not to make things that look ugly uglier, but to let the more beautiful things expose the ugliest things is the most impressive, and using beautiful women to play thrillers is like this, even if you don't like to watch thrillers, looking at beauties is also a pleasing thing, in this way, will the box office be better?" ā
