Watching other people’s movies is like watching other people’s kids

The end of the film pays tribute to the scenes of the classic Hong Kong film "Natural Colors 2", which really surprised me, and I am not disgusted with this undisguised kneeling and licking method.

The Hong Kong film complex seems to have become an inexhaustible material IP in Han Ying's creation. Roughly the same station, but familiar music. In an instant, there was a kind of returning to the era of "everything went overboard, all madness".

Just comparing the current domestic movies, I was a little touched and sad.

Family vs Three Brothers

Can't help but think of some of the best Korean movies born in Hong Kong in recent years.

From "The New World" to "The Watchers" to "Drug War", even if there was an unsatisfactory "The No One" in it, it is better than the domestic remake of the same drama "Natural Color 2018".

Today, when Hong Kong movies are dying, Han Ying has always succeeded in making some classics more localized and injecting fresh elements to play different tricks.

Since then, the sticks have been carrying the banner of the glory of Hong Kong movies.

"Extreme Career", which is still in theaters, has successively broken the box office record of Korean movies and ranked second in the history of Korean movies. It has mobilized more than 16 million movie viewers, accounting for nearly one-third of the total population of South Korea, and it has become a mess in neighboring countries. .

The domestically produced "Lobster Detective" filmed in the same script, but when it was released, it couldn't make any splashes, and there was no sense of existence. Which is better? It is true that there is no harm if there is no comparison.

While the domestic film market is peaceful and prosperous, with an annual box office exceeding 60 billion, making it the second largest film market in the world, there are only a handful of excellent works throughout the year.

The audience who watched the film did not refuse to come, did not know the taste, no matter how unpalatable, they could eat it happily. Throughout the history of filming, it was full of laughter, noisy and noisy. The meaning of the rankings only exists in a series of constantly refreshing numbers, and values ​​collapsed. When there is only one "The God of Medicine" to support the face, these days, there is nothing wrong with saying that money is supreme and entertainment until death.

The rise of Han Ying is obvious to all. From the original only relying on imitating and borrowing, it gradually walked out of its own way.

In addition to its free and open market environment and active and complete classification system, it should also be thanked for its picky audiences. It is precisely because of the existence of these audiences that Korean filmmakers are not slacking in their film creation and strive for excellence. .

Just like the title, every time you watch other people's movies like watching other people's children, now there is still envy, jealousy and hatred left.

    The same script was shot against the "Lobster Detective". The reason why this film can be enthusiastic and funny is that the character, performance, details, rhythm and emotion are all online, especially the rhythm, which is well controlled.
