Realizing this, he suddenly sat up from the chair, a little excited, and wanted to see what the director was going to do next. The story is too ordinary to be ordinary: a retired agent is framed and can't rest in peace, and he takes risks and fights the big boss behind the scenes to save his family. This is the structure of 90% of action movies. If it is just a story outline, how does it attract investment and filmmakers? Really curious.
There is nothing special about the male protagonist. He has a burly figure and an ordinary appearance. He has the maturity and stability of a middle-aged uncle. He was born in one of the most mysterious and familiar places in the world: special forces. In his fifties, his body shape and physical fitness are well maintained. He has three or five good friends, and occasionally gets together to talk about his ex-wife, daughter and life. Then suddenly one day, ordinary life was interrupted...
What's next? Everyone should know that by now. Fleeing for one's life, absolving injustice, everyone's happy, or a tragic ending. How will it unfold in this film? And quietly be a spectator.
So, quietly watch the story unfold slowly, quietly feel the smooth rhythm, and quietly look forward to the unexpected joy. Then, quietly, watching those bridges, they were released one by one without surprise or discount.
I go! I have seen many movies and passed through many scenery, but I never thought that the director would be so courageous and unbiased to cook a standard home-cooked cabbage with vinegar.
At that moment, I was suddenly a little surprised. It's like having a bad spleen and stomach after being devastated by a lot of Hengcai playing with flowers and concepts, and encountering a bowl of white porridge. It's like being hurt by the burning desire, hurting the feelings and spirit, and suddenly encountering a standard boyfriend. He has no characteristics, and is not interesting, but he is meticulous, and his body and mind are comforted by this, and he wants to live an ordinary and stable life.
So, looking at it, I almost felt a sense of respect, for such a well-behaved and obedient movie that has no personality or even a little bit of gag.
Because it at least fully proves: comfort, there is a standard that can be considered. According to this principle, movies also have the beauty of standards and the beauty of rules. Just like a popular comment on singer Li Jian in the past two days: "He represents the mathematical essence of singing. As long as the sound is accurate, it is impossible to sound bad."
A well-made movie can't be bad. At least, you don't feel that the time and dozens of dollars in the dark light and shadow of those two hours are wasted. Although maybe, it's not fun.
Therefore, I think it can even be used as a teaching material for pulling films, allowing students to disassemble one shot by shot, analyze it minute by minute, and see how to use a story that can guess the beginning and the end in less than 120 minutes, using A way to let people sit down; how to connect the far, middle and near very accurately and smoothly, so that people can visually follow the emotions and stay in the film; how to deal with the rhythm between life scenes and action scenes; A detail has the meaning of resonating with the first echo; how to create a climax; how to form a balance...
Just this, dedicated to those who have made us dazzled and restless in recent years, want to leave the stage halfway, and put it in the stomach. The so-called blockbusters that both myself and the director have resented many times.
