On August 11, 2022, a one-to-one remake of the Indian version of " Forrest Gump " was released in India.
Surprisingly, such a movie that only scored 5.4 points on IMDb and lost box office, actually scored more than 7 points on the Chinese movie rating website.
amazed at the tolerance of some viewers towards bad Indian movies.
If this movie was remade in China and was also remade in this 1:1, it will definitely be ridiculed and negatively reviewed by netizens on this website. See the previous " Sunshine Sisters Tao ".
This cannot be blamed on the netizens on this website. It can only be said that because there have been many masterpieces in Indian movies, they have produced the halo effect , and many viewers kneeled down without careful thinking.
In fact, India's 1:1 remake of "Forrest Gump" was destined not to succeed, and it would not be successful if it was any country.
"Forrest Gump" movie has the original work. The original author created such a story based on his own personal experiences, experiences, the soil of life in the southern United States, and his understanding of the drastic historical changes in the United States during that period.
However, the Indian version of " Ashin True Story " can only frame the story to India, and the historical events involved can only be put into force.
is not an organism like the original story.
The story of "Forrest Gump" is only reasonable in the context of "Forrest Gump".
Moreover, the United States has its own unique international status, and the historical events that occur in the United States are almost equivalent to changes in the world.
includes but is not limited to the ping-pong diplomacy involved in the film, buying Apple stocks, Watergate , Vietnam War ending, etc. These things still have far-reaching impacts.
so the audience will look very resonant, because these historical events in the movie are related to almost everyone.
But the Indian version of "Ashin" just mechanically imitates "Forrest Gump", embeds some historical events that only Indians can understand, which are very stiff.
It's like letting Africans play shadow play and letting Japanese shoot Harry Potter, it's really not possible.
Moreover, the values of "Forrest Gump" are also impregnated with the "fool loyalty" conservative ideas of conservative American southern conservatives. It is a deeply hidden American main theme movie.
The core and depth of the thinking can't be learned even if there is another country.
The investment of "Asin's True Story" is as high as 1.8 billion rupees (equivalent to about 159 million yuan), but it is estimated that it will only receive a box office of 1.29 billion rupees in the end, which has been classified as a "box office poison". Even with Amir Khan as the starring actor, it is impossible to save it. The overall view of the
video is nothing special. If you have to summarize it, it is like watching the low-end version of "Forrest Gump" in India.
At the same time, many professional film critics pointed out that although Amir Khan is talented, he is not suitable to play a fool like "Forrest Gump". His image and performance are too out of the way.
In addition, there is a little gossip about the shooting process of this movie.
The film involves a war scene, and viewers who know India know which country has unresolved disputed territory.
Originally, the video was planned to be filmed in Ladakh area in the actual controlled area of Kashmir, but because of a border conflict between and in June 2020, four brave PLA soldiers were killed and one person was seriously injured.
The film also canceled plans to shoot in the Ladakh region.
So, this movie should not only not get this score, but also be boycotted. I wonder what netizens on this website are kneeling on 4 or 5 stars?
