How miserable is the film market under the epidemic? The Hollywood blockbuster "Jurassic World 3", which was released on June 10, has so far exceeded 700 million in box office, injecting strong momentum into the sluggish movie market.

The Hollywood blockbuster

" Life Events " starring Zhu Yilong , in terms of subject matter and cast, does not look like a "box office hit" at all.

What is unexpected is that "Life Events" has been "cheating all the way" since it was screened. It not only knocked "Jurassic World 3" off the box office championship, but also set a new box office record for unpopular movies.

The Hollywood blockbuster

So far, "Life Events", which was released for 5 days, has received a box office of 327 million, which is really impressive.

It is worth mentioning that "Life Events" has a predicted total box office of 1.136 billion, which is 212 million higher than "Jurassic World 3".

In Lao Zhang's view, "Life Events" can become the first box office movie to exceed 1 billion in 2022 after the Spring Festival " Changjin Lake Shuimen Bridge ", " This Killer Is Not So Calm " and "Miracle: Stupid Kid" "The main reason for the film is the film's excellent reputation.

The Hollywood blockbuster

"Life Events" is director Liu Jiangjiang's debut film. It tells the story of a down-and-out mortician Mo Sanmei (played by Zhu Yilong) who unknowingly changes her attitude towards life after meeting an orphan Wu Xiaowen (played by Yang Enyou).

From the plot point of view, "Life Events" is indeed very cliché. After watching the entire film, it is not difficult to find that since it is a debut film, many parts of the film are not handled very well. However, nearly 100,000 viewers gave it a high score of 7.5, which can be said to be true.

First of all, for ordinary viewers, "Life Events" has both laughs and tears. It is worth the price of admission, so naturally they will not be stingy with praise.

Secondly, Zhu Yilong's acting skills really added a lot to the movie.

The Hollywood blockbuster

As an idol star, Zhu Yilong's transition from the drama industry to the film industry in recent years does not seem to be smooth.

Take his last dramatic disaster film " Peak Explosion " in which he played a major role as an example. Although the box office was not bad, the reputation was criticized by the audience.

In terms of acting skills, many viewers gave Zhu Yilong a "failure" rating.

Zhu Yilong's performance in "Life Events" received unanimous praise from the audience. Obviously, he had done his homework this time.

The Hollywood blockbuster

In the movie, Zhu Yilong plays the role of a mortician who is unwilling to be released after serving his sentence. Whether he is a sloppy look with a beard on his face, he is casually lighting a cigarette with yellow paper money burning in a brazier, or he is chewing gum and skillfully wiping the body of the deceased. , every gesture and gesture, grasps the role very well.

In addition, Zhu Yilong's "three crying scenes" in the film are full of layers and precise in meaning. The audience is infected and will naturally give positive comments.

According to the director, when filming the film, in order to play a good role, Zhu Yilong went to the funeral parlor to experience life and learn from his master.

In order to fit the character's image, Zhu Yilong specially cut a platform shape and grew a beard to make himself look casual and sloppy.

The Hollywood blockbuster

Of course, the highlight of "Life Events" is that the overall rhythm of the film is well controlled, with avant-garde themes, rich characters, sincere emotions, and full of life.

puts it more bluntly. The film is very down-to-earth and can easily resonate with the audience.

The Hollywood blockbuster

For Lao Zhang, I think the film was well shot and the reason why I recommend it to everyone is very simple. Just like what the film wants to convey to the audience - life in this world, except life and death, is all trivial.
