2022 seems to have less of the "competition for the heroes".
In previous years, all the best movies were released, and they fought for each other. This year, it was the only one. Only "
,000 Mile Return " hit the box office, with its premiere of over 100 million yuan. It continued to rise and took the banner of National Day with its own strength.
As of October 3, the National Day theater has been online for four days, and the only movie that has exceeded 100 million is still the only one in "The Road to Return" (572 million), and the gap is not average.
" Ordinary Hero " has barely reached the threshold of 80 million, and the rest of the films have not even reached a fraction of "The Road Back". The total box office has just exceeded 700 million, and the top of the list accounts for nearly 70% of the data.
vs. 2021, just one movie " Changjin Lake " won 3.194 billion, and even the second-ranked "Fathers" (962 million) far exceeded the total box office of this year's four-days.
In this way, it seems that it is almost impossible for the National Day holiday in 2022 to compete with previous years.
Fortunately, the box office of "The Road to Return" continues to rise, and it should be able to bring back some results.
So, is this video that holds the banner good? Why can you get such a box office?
In fact, when it premiered by over 100 million, many netizens asked this question.
As for the answer, you need to find it from the video.
"The Way Back" is one of the few domestic films with the theme of "Entering Overseas Chinese Action".
When I first saw its content, many viewers couldn't help but think of "Wolf Warrior 2", and innocent people were deeply trapped in the war and didn't know where to go.
"Going Back" also tells the story of the rebels in the Republic of Numia. When the war was raging, even civilians and overseas Chinese in other countries were unable to escape.
Even embassies of various countries have been attacked indiscriminately.
In desperation, embassies of various countries could only launch emergency evacuation operations. The Chinese embassy officials led by Zong Dawei ( Zhang Yi ) were the first to respond. In contrast, the plots of the two videos are surprisingly similar.
Similar themes and plots, even the storyline of the opening chapter is the same. Will "Going Back" continue the hit physique of "Wolf Warrior 2"? After actually watching the video, I believe these doubts will be solved.
The two videos have similarities in subject matter, but they also have essential differences.
"Wolf Warrior" Whether the Chinese navy enters Lingang to capture the power of a great power, or the wolf warrior cold front blood saves people from water and fire, these exciting points make people excited.
"The Road to Return" is completely different. Compared with "Wolf Warrior", it is calmer, more real and more cruel.
For the bloody scenes during the riot, "Wolf Warrior" just clicks to the point, but the former is "invisible".
The broken limbs and broken arms and corpses were everywhere, and even women and children were not spared. They could only cry in the fire.
Life is as fragile as white paper at the moment when the gunshots sound. It can be trampled on by will or become a tool for demonstration.
It is under such conditions that Zong Dawei and others had to launch the evacuation of overseas Chinese operation.
Whether it is him, Cheng Lang ( Wang Junkai), Bai Hu ( Yin Tao decoration), they are just ordinary officials of the embassy or executives of multinational companies. They do not have three heads and six arms, nor do they have the extraordinary individual skills like Leng Feng. On the battlefield, they are also as vulnerable as civilians.
It is such a group of people who completed the evacuation of overseas Chinese after experiencing thousands of difficulties and dangers.
They will also be afraid in the face of artillery fire. Like Zong Dawei, his pregnant wife is waiting for him to return and saying that he has no fear in his heart. How is it possible?
But when they see the hopeful eyes behind them, they must have been determined to lead everyone out of the battlefield.
A simple report in the news was exchanged for their life and perseverance. Is "The Road to Return" like
good?
The answer is yes.
But not everyone is applauding.
The arguments are almost concentrated on the following two points: 1. The main theme is rich in color. 2. The acting skills of the young and handsome guy are criticized.
Some viewers think that "The Road to Return" is like "Changjin Lake" and "Fathers", which can only win a large number of box offices if they have the advantage of the main theme.
Audiences with this question, let’s ask back: Is the main theme not good? When did the main theme become the reason for being criticized?
is actually not at fault on the main theme. As long as the video is exciting and touching enough, that is enough.
talks about acting skills again, which is also the most controversial point. There is actually no problem just looking at the cast, and they are almost all actors in the circle.
But after watching the video, many viewers still felt that Wang Junkai's acting was unsatisfactory, and even felt that he had influenced Zhang Yi's rhythm, and then Zhang Yi alone supported the movie.
Actually, Wang Junkai's performance in "The Road to Return" is remarkable, but he got into the pile of actors.
In the face of a group of powerful players such as Zhang Yi, Yin Tao, Li Xuejian , the gap exists objectively.
Moreover, Wang Junkai does not have the most scenes, and the perfect presentation of the drama is inseparable from the efforts of every actor.
In addition, it also says that the film opens low and goes high, and the middle is too dull.
The same old saying goes: There are a thousand Hamlets in the hearts of a thousand people. It is impossible that everyone has the same view.
But overall, "The Road to Return" can be regarded as a domestic film.
