But I don’t want to talk more about the movie, because it comes from Guy Ritchie, who made the new generation of Chinese directors cast into the ground, and Guy Ritchie, who was divorced from Madonna. How can it not let the adrenaline rise?
Guy’s Sherlock Holmes is an out-and-out "problem hero". He is unruly, unruly, and the woman he loves is still a famous thief; he steals Watson’s clothes and wears it, experimenting with a poor puppy, and pulls it at three in the middle of the night. The violin disturbs the people and devalues Watson's fiancee out of jealousy, which is very different from the English gentleman described by Conan Doyle, but he was born in the 21st century, and the perfect hero has long been rejected by the audience. The “problem heroes” have subverted people’s previous views of good and evil - now in "Brave Heart", Wallace's national heroes who are both righteous and courageous, romantic and dedicated have long been forgotten in the Scottish grasslands, and Achilles (Pitt version) ) The heroic image of a heroic character who disobeys military orders for a woman and washes Troy with blood for revenge is even more infectious to female audiences than a Trojan horse virus; when Indiana Jones is old and unable to wield a whip, it is licentious. The Iron Man of the United States began to fight against violence under the packaging of various high-tech products; just when the omnipotent Superman returned to Earth from Krypton and continued to serve the people like Lei Feng, a buddy named Hancock also appeared drunkly. The audience's vision, while doing sabotage, fighting injustices, bullying and bullying children when it's okay.
But the audience likes such problem heroes, and the root cause is probably just like the problems of Gay Straight and Straight Gay discussed in "Sex and the City". A hero is like the Straight. Even if the gay is gay, he is still a Straight. In Lu Xun's words, "a warrior with a flaw is a warrior after all, and a perfect fly is nothing but a fly." A hero is a hero. As long as the essence is not subverted, those human weaknesses can arouse public attention. There was once a survey and research showing that a successful person with shortcomings can get the goodwill of ordinary people more than a successful person with strong everywhere. From a certain point of view, the problematic of heroes is also a manifestation of heroes’ humanity, and this three-dimensional analysis of roles better meets the appreciation requirements of today’s audiences.
However, not only is Sherlock a problem hero in "Sherlock Holmes", Robert Downey Jr, who plays Sherlock, is a veritable "problem actor". In this entertainment circle that relies on scandals, the new and good men who are well-behaved are always unable to become popular. After all, the more scandals there are, the paparazzi that can't get rid of it will vie for a red carpet with flashes and long focal lengths. Robert Downey Jr, as a star of Hollywood, prison and drug rehabilitation, is destined to be extraordinary in his life. He was instigated by his father to smoke marijuana when he was eight years old. The "bad boy" gene is deeply rooted. In his early years, he had starred in the shocking "Natural Murderer", director Oliver Stone is the kind of person who crushed his personal "heroism" and had to step on his feet. Of course, Robert only appeared in the "united battle" of a murderer. The jumpy reporter. In 1993, he also played Chaplin, his brilliant acting skills pushed his career to the peak, but the "second entrance" in the drug rehabilitation center really made him feel depressed for a while.
But since a hero is a hero, then drama bones are drama bones. Even if he remarks disdainfully, "I don't understand acting, I'm just a talented liar", he can't hide his genius. How much drugs and Alcohol can't kill it. And the wisdom of Holmes, even the messy house, can't be buried.
