After the movie premiere, Lin Yuquan did not stop in Kyoto for long, and immediately returned to Chengdu with Liu Yifei and others in his G550 car, and because of the release of "Heartbeat", this night is destined to be difficult to calm down.

Although it was very late after returning home from the midnight screening, Roger . Albert didn't lie down to rest immediately, the pictures and lines of "Heartbeat" filled his mind, making him feel a kind of torture that did not vomit and was unhappy.

"When we saw the audience walking out of the screening hall of "Heartbeat" with such reluctant and satisfied expressions, we knew that Kung Fu Lin had succeeded again."

Roger. Albert began his film review with this, and wrote later in the article: "Compared with Kung Fu Lin's previous works, "Heartbeat" completely exudes a different atmosphere, and throughout the movie, it does not have shocking extreme visual effects, nor is it gorgeous, cool, tense and exciting action scenes, as well as thrilling, ups and downs of the plot, and even the bitterness and jokes that greatly arouse people's emotions." But this does not mean that "Heartbeat" is bland and boring, in fact, it is such a small and fresh work, and when you look at it, there is always a piece of softness in your heart that is inexplicably touched.

The movie tells the story of Julie, the girl next door, who falls in love with Bryce at first sight and dreams of getting the boy's first kiss, the story starts with Bryce's family moving to a small town and starting the budding young first love of adolescence, warm and clean pictures, American-style retro country style in the sixties of the last century, trivial daily life, thanks to Kung Fu Lin. He uses his delicate and unique perspective. brought us such a warm and emotional love story. I think even the author of the novel, Wendelin. Fan. De La Annan, how happy he must have been to see his work being so skillfully processed by Kung Fu Lin.

There is no doubt that this is another masterpiece of Kung Fu Lin, I give it four stars, I love this movie, it makes old guys like me also remember my youth, in my opinion. This is supposed to be one of the best films of the year, and in fact, I'm already thinking about whether I should include it in my list of the best movies of 2008, and it's a real headache, a happy headache.

And not only Roger. Albert, after the premiere, many film critics and fans couldn't wait to express their comments on the Internet, and it was less than four months since the release of "Wild Story: The Rise of the Ape Race", and Lin Yuquan swept the world again. All sorts of praise poured in on the $25 million film.

"It's tingling, but it's not just heartwarming."

The online edition of The Beijing News used this as the title of its review of "Heartbeat": "This is a film that seems not so moving, but it is actually deeply moving." The story of "Heartbeat" is particularly simple, a pair of young male protagonists, trees, chickens and eggs, interspersed with a large number of ordinary life fragments, to make such a story rich and interesting, it is undoubtedly a big problem, and Lin Yuquan succeeded, the freshness, beauty, and touching exuded by the film are endlessly memorable. ”

"A pure and beautiful little fresh love movie, as its name suggests, a heart-pounding youth sketch, if you want to ask me how much I love it, I will say I love it to death, it is the most touching little fresh love movie I have ever seen, I even think it is the best work of the same type in the past 20 years." Zhou Ying, a well-known domestic film critic, praised enthusiastically: "The neighbor of childhood sweethearts, first women chase men, and then men chase women, the film is fresh and comfortable, and it tells you such a non-profound but worthy of reflection truth'It turns out that I haven't found each other's good', the budding of adolescent boys and girls makes people feel excited when watching." ”

Before this, some people questioned whether Kung Fu Lin could make a small and fresh love movie, but now those people can shut up, "Heartbeat" is such a great movie, it is unbelievable, I can't believe that this is just Kung Fu Lin's first foray into the theme of love. But you have to know that there is a group of people in this world who are called geniuses, and Kung Fu Lin has long proven himself to be not only a genius, but a genius of geniuses, and it is not surprising for him to do this. "Well-known film critic Gülen. Huibo hit the star: "Compared with the deliberate laughter and contrived sensationalism of some so-called fresh movies, "Heartbeat" even seems a little bland in terms of plot, but this blandness makes it very different from other two little guessing movies about childhood sweethearts, which is particularly special and exudes a back-to-basics atmosphere. The most commendable thing is that it not only retains the freshness of the youthful romance, but also extends the humanistic care in the small events. ”

"I have to say that Kung Fu Lin presented an extraordinary masterpiece, with a top-level soundtrack, top-level cinematography, top-level performance, top-level sets, top-level editing, and top-level director, and what surprised me the most was the structure of the story, the reversal of the first woman chasing the man, and then the man chasing the woman, the contrast between the two protagonists in the same scene five times from their respective perspectives, Julie's mentally retarded uncle, the sawn-off sycamore, and the setting of the snake swallowing eggs, what an excellent script, "Heartbeat" There is definitely a reason to be nominated for the Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay. "Variety" film critic Todd. McCarthy wrote.

In addition, Abigir. Bryslin, Karan. McOlife, Sandra. Bullock, Julianne. Moore, John. Cusack, Anthony. Edwards, Morgan. Lily, Nathan. Ganbao, Allen. Akin, Dakota. The performances of Fanning and others were also well received, especially Abigir. Bryslin and Karan. McOllieffy.

Of course, it is not without bad reviews, and The Hollywood Reporter believes that there are so many fictional characters in "Heartbeat" that the whole story comes to a standstill.

However, with a score of 85 (A- on Yahoo and 92% on Rotten Tomatoes: 76 votes for: 8 against), the praise was overwhelming, and authoritative media such as The New York Times, Variety, The Chicago Sun, Entertainment Weekly, The Los Angeles Times, and Premiere all showed full marks, and the view that the film was "not inferior even when compared with other romantic classics that have gone down in film history" has become the mainstream.

Although relatively skeptical, more people believe that Lin Yuquan will definitely bring surprises. I am looking forward to "Heartbeat". But I'm afraid not many people would have thought that the surprise brought by Lin Yuquan would be so big.

With only one "Savage Tales: The Rise of the Ape Race". has made 08 years worthy of the name of Lin Yuquan in the history of world films, and coupled with the heavyweight classic "Heartbeat", it undoubtedly makes Lin Yuquan's year more and more undoubted.

And as usual, Lin Yuquan's fans showed amazing madness, on IMDB, "Heartbeat" scored 9.1 points in one fell swoop, only ranking fourth behind "Wild Story: Rise of the Apes", "The Godfather", and "The Shawshank Redemption".

Although the score and ranking of "Heartbeat" will definitely decline over time. Looking at the past four months, "Wild Story: Rise of the Apes" still stands at the top of the list with a score of 9.4, and with the strong support of fans and fans, "Heartbeat" will inevitably occupy a fairly high ranking on IMDB for a long time.

"Fresh, interesting, warm and beautiful, the charm of "Heartbeat" lies in the inadvertent transmission of emotion in the plain warmth, such touching as the plot progresses, layer upon layer, and finally explodes, making you unable to extricate yourself from falling in love with it." Looking at a movie review on the computer screen full of admiration for "Heartbeat". Liu Yifei couldn't help but smile happily.

"Alright, it's time to rest. I have to get up early tomorrow and go back to the crew to film! Seeing that it was almost one o'clock, the girl was still watching with great interest, and Lin Yuquan hurriedly urged.

For the praise of film critics and fans and audiences, Lin Yuquan said that it was fake to be unhappy, but after directing several films, and each film was well received, although "Heartbeat" received an almost exaggerated high score, it was not enough to make him too excited.

In fact, compared with the praise received by "Heartbeat", he was more satisfied with the fact that he completed the filming of the movie for the first time without relying on the memory of a cultivator, although there are still many shortcomings, but on the whole, he did a good job and did not waste "Heartbeat".

"Oh, good." Liu Yifei reluctantly turned off the computer, and then asked excitedly: "Brother Yuquan, do you guess how much the box office will be on the first day?" ”

"Don't guess, you'll know when the time comes." Lin Yuquan didn't care, he didn't feel worried about the box office of "Heartbeat", nor did he bother to guess.

"Ahh Liu Yifei's face was undisguised with disappointment, and she said unwillingly: "Can the domestic box office reach 20 million on the first day?" ”

"I should be able to, okay, baby, don't think about it, rest early." Lin Yuquan smiled and took the girl's hand, not giving the other party a chance to refuse at all.

Liu Yifei is naturally extremely unwilling, but her arms can't twist her thighs, and there are many, many people who are very concerned about the box office situation of "Heartbeat" like her.

In fact, speculation about the film's box office has been a hot topic since Lin Yuquan announced the filming of "Heartbeat", and interestingly, the opinions of authoritative professionals and fans are completely different.

In the eyes of filmmakers, film critics and box office experts, with the addition of Lin Yuquan's extraordinary influence, the box office performance of "Heartbeat" must be quite good, but limited by the subject matter, it will not be too high after all, North America breaking 100 million, breaking 300 million US dollars in the world should not be a problem, North America breaking 200 million US dollars, and the global breaking 500 million US dollars is impossible.

Fans undoubtedly scoff at this, they think that the box office of "Heartbeat" must reach a very high number, Lin Yuquan has launched six movies so far, the first five films except for the debut film "Huo Yuanjia" The global box office is less than 200 million US dollars, "Red Cliff" and "Painted Skin" are more than 400 million, "Hurricane Rescue" and "Wild Story: The Rise of the Ape Race" are as high as more than 800 million and more than 1.9 billion, no matter from any point of view, "Heartbeat" cannot be less than 400 million US dollars at the global box office, as for 500 million US dollars, Would that be an obstacle?

Especially in "Desire. After "Wangdu" broke $400 million at the global box office and "Mamma Mia" broke $500 million at the global box office, no fans doubted that the film directed by Lin Yuquan would be weaker than "Mamma Mia" and "Desire. Looking at the city", how is that possible.

And the call to action posts launched by fans on the website to support "Heartbeat" have received an exaggerated and incredibly exaggerated response in a short period of time.

In such a situation, when the premiere of "Heartbeat" ended, fans' confidence in the box office of "Heartbeat" became more and more high, even though the general concept of film critics, filmmakers and box office experts has not changed, almost everyone secretly raised their box office estimate of "Heartbeat".

So what will be the result?

In the midst of all the anticipation, "Heartbeat" won the single-day box office champion on October 17 in all countries and regions around the world without suspense, and its box office figures also triggered two completely different reactions without exception.

In North America, "Heartbeat" received $22.14 million at the box office in 3,426 theaters and $6,462 at the box office in a single theater, although this achievement is still far from "Wild Story: The Rise of the Ape Race", but for a small fresh love movie with an investment of $25 million, such a result is not simply good to describe, but extremely terrifying and crazy.

Not only that, the global achievements of 23.65 million yuan in the mainland, 6.38 million Hong Kong dollars in Hong Kong, 38.26 million Taiwan dollars in Baodao, and 200,000 people in South Korea can be described as terrifying.

"Wow, I knew that!" Countless fans of Lin Yuquan cheered, how could Lin Yuquan not achieve good results?

"Oh, it's incredible." Many film critics, filmmakers and box office experts exclaimed again and again that a small-budget small and fresh romance movie had achieved such a high first-day box office, and they knew that the final box office performance of "Heartbeat" would definitely exceed their expectations, and as for how far it would go, they would have to wait for the weekend box office to come out before they could better analyze the budget.

Lin Yuquan, who was filming in the crew, naturally received congratulations from everyone in the crew for the first time, and before the box office came out on the opening weekend, the interview with "Phoenix.com", which he expected would cause trouble, really made waves after the report.
