Chapter 396: Evaluation

Chen Shen traveled to several cities, and finally chose to settle down in a remote town, and lived a life of poverty, unkempt all day long, untidy hair and beard, and the image of a bearded man was no different from a madman on the side of the road. If he sat on the side of the road with a broken bowl, someone might give him a few dollars.

But such a madman, when he passed by the welfare home, he saw the little girl who was also alone, and his heart instantly softened into a puddle of water, and he asked her if she wanted to go home with him.

The film critic showed an expression of "sure enough", if it was just a criminal who had reformed himself, the plot would inevitably be a little bland, with the addition of the character of "father", the plot and emotions became rich and full, and it also aroused the audience's desire to watch.

From here, the audience's heart follows the protagonist and is touched by his every move. They saw that Chen Shen had changed a little bit for his daughter, like a bright light suddenly shining in a dark world, and he was willing to give everything for this light.

Chen Shen dragged his injured leg up the wooden ladder, wanting to use all his savings to buy a piano for his daughter, but accidentally fell from the wooden ladder and fell heavily to the ground, and the audience's hearts were clenched at this moment.

Ji Lingchuan was stunned and turned his head to look at Mei Ruolin next to him.

"Oh, you should have an impression of this scene, that is, when you were injured, I saw the video later, and found that adding this part is more infectious." After Mei Ruolin explained, he even made a joke, "The fall is too real, and it will be wasted if you don't need to get on it." ”

Ji Lingchuan: "......"

He didn't act it, he was planted on the wooden ladder to the ground, and if he hadn't been padded with a sponge pad, he would have broken his bones, could it not be real?

The overall tone of the film is very gray, giving people the feeling of an old deep alley, and the interplay of light and shadow makes the audience's hearts covered with a touch of sadness, and several of the scenes are tear-jerking.

Chen Shen, the character who lost the motivation to live in the early stage, became depressed, and the audience was depressed, and the plot in the back came to a big reversal, which was very warm and healing.

After he picked up the little girl at the gate of the welfare home, he not only provided her with a warm and comfortable environment, but also saved money for her to study, educated her with his low level of education, and studied hard to have a better future appearance.

He then thought that perhaps in the corners he didn't know, there were many abandoned children like her, who were lucky enough to be rescued by the welfare home, and unfortunate enough to be cold and starving. Therefore, in addition to working to earn money, he worked as a helper in the local welfare institute for free, making woodcarving toys for those children.

The little children were innocent and did not know about his past, and whenever he took out those worthless gadgets, their faces were filled with bright smiles, and they jumped around him, calling him "kind uncle".

In addition, he also guided a thug who only knows how to steal and cheat money all day long.

At the end of the film, Chen Shen took out all his savings, but it was still not enough to buy a piano for his daughter, just watched his daughter sit quietly there and try to play the piano in the store, and then left with regret.

The whole screening hall remembered the sighs, they thought he could buy the piano, but they didn't expect it to end like this.

Chen Shen took his daughter's hand and walked on the Gu on the way home, the sun was setting, the warm orange light shrouded two people, one tall and one short, and two elongated shadows were reflected on the ground.

The piano music sounded in the back, and Chen Shen looked up at Caixia in the evening, and when he first came out of prison, he also looked up at the sky like this. At that time, the white light was dazzling, and he could not see any hope, but the sunset today was very beautiful, and the chicken soup was still simmering in the stew pot at home, although he did not buy a piano on his daughter's birthday, but he bought cakes and fresh grapes, which she liked to eat......

The backs of the two gradually blurred, turning into a small black dot, the volume of the piano music in the background increased, and the screen fell into darkness.

After the feature film was broadcast, there were bursts of applause in the screening hall.

Mei Ruolin deserves to be called the "tear harvester", the movies from his hands always make people cry, whether it is a sad plot or a happy plot, there will always be a moment that pokes the softest place in your heart.

If Mei Ruolin switches to comedy in the future, the audience may laugh and laugh and suddenly cry.

Some of the audience in the back row still hadn't regained their senses, staring blankly at the big screen, wiping their tears with tissues while clapping mechanically with everyone.

After the premiere, the discussion about the film skyrocketed online overnight.

However, the lucky fans who have seen it have no spoilers, but intimately remind everyone to prepare tissues before entering the cinema, otherwise they will have to use their sleeves at that time.

Someone posted a photo on Weibo, which was widely reposted by netizens, in the photo is a dark green sleeve, which is wet with a large dark color trace, accompanied by the text: "This is the end of watching a movie without a tissue!" ”

Is the plot really that touching?

In fact, seeing the name of the movie and a short dozen seconds of footage, most people thought that this was a police movie, but it turned out to be an emotional film with a deep relationship between father and daughter.

It wasn't until the movie was officially released in major theaters that everyone knew that it was not a simple emotional film.

The audience who went to the theater to buy tickets for the first time was basically divided into three categories. The first category is Ji Lingchuan's fans, the idol's new movie says that he has to support everything, in a word, I will watch what he plays. The second category is Mei Ruolin's loyal fans, his previous works are too good, this time it should not be bad, and maybe it will bring different surprises to the audience, after all, this is a script that he has been grinding out for many years. The third category is pure care, and I want to watch a movie when I am idle, and it just so happens that this movie has appeared in the sight more recently, so I chose it.

Theaters across the country have different schedules, and some people have watched it first and can't wait to share it with you.

"After watching "Atonement", I can only say that the tears are dry, of course, it may be that I am too emotional, I usually can't stop my tears when I see this kind of short video, I originally thought that it would be a little embarrassing for me to cry alone in the cinema, but I turned my head and found that the audience on both sides of the left and right were crying, this is the infectious power of the movie."

I have to say that Mei Ruolin's handling is very ingenious, the movie does not mention Chen Shen's situation before he was imprisoned from beginning to end, and the audience doesn't even know why he was imprisoned. My friends and I had a debate with my friends who came to watch the movie, and the topic was, 'If a criminal is rehabilitated after his release from prison and has been doing good deeds to make amends for his past crimes, should we forgive him?' I think it should be forgiven, it is better to have more sunshine in the world than more darkness. But the friend resolutely refused to forgive, she said that even if the criminal was good, the damage he had caused to others or a family could not be erased, because the pain was irreversible. We debated for half an hour, but neither of us could convince the other, and finally we each took a step back and decided to see what this criminal was going to prison for, and if he committed a serious crime, even if he did what Chen Shen did in the movie, I didn't feel warm. This is where Mei Ruolin's brilliance lies, always leaving room for the audience to imagine for themselves. ”

"The big guy is worthy of being the big guy, and watching a movie can start a debate match, and ordinary audiences such as me will only watch the plot. To be honest, it may be that the previous expectations were too high, and after reading it, I found that it did not reach the level I imagined. For viewers who like to watch ups and downs and interlocking plots, the whole movie is a bit bland, and I don't even know where the climax is after watching it. In addition to this, the storyline is still very good and worth watching. ”

"It's plain but not mediocre, that's how I think it, anyway, I'm planning to brush it up over the weekend."

"Why are you praising movies, no one is praising the protagonist? Ji Lingchuan's acting skills simply subverted my cognition, I was stunned for three minutes at the beginning of the movie and didn't recognize Chen Shen as Ji Lingchuan, and I thought I went to the wrong theater. Mei Ruolin was right to choose him! ”

"Yes, yes, I wanted to say it a long time ago, Ji Lingchuan is the biggest surprise of this movie! In fact, compared with the warm father character in the later period, I think the decadence of the previous part is also super feeling, Chen Shen squatted at the street and ate steamed buns, and the performance was too layered! ”

"When Ji Lingchuan took away the little girl at the gate of the welfare home, he asked her, 'Do you want to go with me', and I really want to go home with him!"

After watching the netizens' views, Ji Tang felt a sense of bitterness, and they were so moved that they were about to cry.

No one knows how worried they are, there was a lot of turmoil when this movie started, if Ji Lingchuan's performance in the movie was a little bad, they had no doubt that the "group ridicule" storm would come back, or even worse.

Fortunately, Ji Lingchuan did not disappoint the fans, nor did he disappoint the audience who were looking forward to this movie, he used his strength to prove that this role belongs to him, he is not a substitute, but a choice.

There are more movie reviews on the Internet, and the word-of-mouth of the movie spreads, and some people who are still waiting to see if they are as touching as everyone says.

A film and television blogger reported first-hand news that the box office of the movie "Atonement" broke 100 million in less than six hours after its release, 300 million in one day, and 1 billion in a week, and continued to rise.

According to this posture, "Atonement" can be called the best film work in the second half of the year, and only "Below Zero Octave" in the first half of the year can be compared with it, but "Zero Octave" has a good reputation and a considerable Douban score, but the box office performance is not high.

Ji Lingchuan's first starring movie won a box office success and gained a good reputation, I don't know whether to say that he is superior or that he is lucky.

If Fu Xiao hadn't had a car accident, this role wouldn't have been his turn.

If Fu Xiao is to act, it is difficult to say whether this effect can be achieved. For the same plot, the actors interpret it in different ways, and the effects presented are also different.

Therefore, even if someone is jealous of Ji Lingchuan, they don't dare to blatantly say that he has taken advantage of other people's opportunities. Because even if this opportunity is given to you, you may not be able to seize it.
