"The Climber" because there is a box office hit by Wu Jing, the "Me and My Motherland" blessed by seven famous guides don't have to worry, but what surprised me most is "Chinese Captain" directed by Liu Weiqiang.
Discuss these three giants from the perspective of film quality, personally think "Chinese Captain"> "My Motherland and Me"> "The Climber" .
Liu Weiqiang is not without good works. Movies such as "Young and Dangerous" and "Infernal Affairs" will have their names in film history.
It’s just that the background of these movies produced by Liu Weiqiang is in the form of an iron triangle, and "Young and Dangerous" is the king. Jing Wenjun worked together, "Infernal Affairs" As for Mak Siu-fai and Zhuang Wenqiang, after leaving the Audio-Technica, Liu Weiqiang's film quality has indeed declined drastically, and the filming of "Martial Arts Monsters", "Macao Wind and Cloud", "Revenge of the Azure Dragon", etc. A film can not be described as a movie.
But this time, "Captain of China", it is no exaggeration to say that Liu Weiqiang since "Initial D" the best of.
"Chinese Captain" is based on the story of Sichuan Airlines hero captain Liu Chuanjian.
On May 14 this year, when Sichuan Airlines Flight 3U8633 was on a mission from Chongqing to Lhasa, the front windshield of the right seat of the cockpit broke and fell off. Captain Liu Chuanjian was hit by airflow and a lot of equipment. In the event that the watch was destroyed, the crew was organized to handle it correctly, and the aircraft safely landed at Chengdu Shuangliu Airport. 87 passengers and crew landed safely.
Most of "Chinese Captain" uses group dramas to narrate. At the beginning of the film, many characters appeared, Zhang Hanyu standardized In the process of getting on the machine, Yuan Quan's role is calm, and it is obvious that there is a trained flight attendant's pace, which is expressed in less than a few words of professionalism.
When the crew passes through the terminal, the lives of citizens of all colors are also very well photographed, mothers with babies, live broadcasts The scenes of popular Internet celebrities and Tibetans with ashes were swept through, each of the population spoke different local languages, and an airport image of all beings and a full sense of life were also expressed, giving people the first feeling of being grounded.
The rhythm before getting on the machine is relaxed and happy, easily substituting the audience in.
The so-called specialization is not to spit out a bunch of professional terms that the audience can’t understand, but from the scenes, costumes, movements, and various small details. Come out
"Captain Sally" shot the "airplane", that is a scene with only the nose and six or seven rows of seats in the cabin, and the others are processed by computer. "But it was really shot with a 1:1 cabin.
The costumes of all the crew members in the movie are completely restored in real life. Of course, it is necessary to have real airport personnel present during editing to avoid technical errors.
Liu Weiqiang said that "Captain of China" he shot as an action movie, the rhythm should be as exciting as "Symphony of Destiny"expensive.
It was a sudden moment when the anti-aircraft glass broke, without any bedding. When the audience’s hearts were just raised, then Ou Hao immediately Being sucked out of the airport, the beginning of a full horror movie.
Liu Weiqiang's thrilling scene dispatching in a limited space is very good, how can the captain in the cockpit save the field professionally, and how can the flight attendants in the airport comfort Passengers, the two stages are carried out at the same time, the roles are well-defined, and the constantly changing situation can keep the audience's attention tightly all the time.
Andy Lau once asked about Liu Weiqiang’s impression, and he responded like this: "Quick, as fast as you want, you can give him a day to shoot Yes, you can give him ten days." This is not an exaggeration. Liu Weiqiang finished filming "Young and Dangerous Raptors Crossing the River" in only 11 days.
From the beginning of the preparation of "Chinese Captain", the actors, scripts, team, etc. have not been finalized, and it has been just a year since the release, Liu Weiqiang once again demonstrated his quick gunner skills. Hand in a satisfactory homework.
However, "Chinese Captain" is not very satisfied as a whole. In fact, after Zhang Hanyu got off the plane, it was basically superfluous literary dramas, forced family dramas to sensation, and some main melody slogan-style plots. It would be better if it was streamlined or cut directly.
The main reason why many people did not like to watch the movie in the past, the established story frame and the unchangeable ending make the audience fatigued and limit the director's performance of the whole movie .
But the turning point of the main melody movie in 2009, that year, the two major box office movies, "The Founding of a Country" and "October Besieged" were released. The similarities between the two Yes, they all use the All-Star lineup.
The tiling narrative used in "The Founding of a Country" is naturally not easy to analyze. "October Besieged City" is the most successful attempt by Hong Kong filmmakers in the main melody film in the Mainland.
"October Besieged City" was actually set up in Shanghai for shooting, and the director Chen Desen cleverly selected Sun Yat-sen, who is the main theme but not too sensitive, as the main line of the movie. It can reduce restrictions and commercialize a main theme movie.
"October Besieged City" is a commercial Hong Kong film completed with the support of various conditions in the Mainland.
In 2012, Mak Siu-fai and Zhuang Wenqiang also jointly filmed the main melody movie "The Wind-lister", and the selected subjects were not commonly used historical events or historical figures.
The novel role of the blind intelligence agent uses faceless behind-the-scenes to advance the story. The whole process is compact and there is no urine point. There is still time to intersperse two love stories in, which is quite infernal. Although the word-of-mouth and box office are relatively average, it can be regarded as a new attempt by Hong Kong filmmakers in the main theme, and they are constantly exploring in fixed genres.
However, the highlight moments when Hong Kong filmmakers really create the main theme include "Take the Tiger Mountain" and "Operation Mekong".
The smartest part of "Taking Tiger Mountain" is to use the modelTsui Hark has pleased both sides of the chivalry and bravery that our army should have, and the plot of the police and robber game that audiences love to watch. The 880 million box office also proved the success of the film.
"Operation Mekong" and later "Operation Red Sea" is a complete self-explosion of the military fan Lin Chaoxian. The use of firearms in the play is wonderful, and the box office of the two movies is also as high as 1.186 billion. And 3.65 billion.
The former still has a complete story to explore, while the latter completely abandons the cumbersome narrative and becomes Lin Chaoxian's munitions solo show. It also brings the Chinese main theme movie close to Hollywood blockbusters, reaching international standards.
When the main theme movie was on fire, the master director Xu Anhua, who holds several golden horse statues, also intervened and shot "When Will the Moon Be".
A literary love story of children's love in a troubled world war, and a movie with Xu Anhua's style.
The main melody movie, this kind of frame film, has also been broken through by Hong Kong directors, constantly playing new ideas. When movies are no longer restricted, the main theme movies may also become the outlet of Hong Kong directors, so even if Johnnie To comes to the mainland to shoot the main theme in the future, I will not be too surprised.
