Many people compare Ning Hao's two "crazy" movies with Guy Ritchie's films. Obviously, the former is too immature and can't even be on the same level as the earliest "snatch". What's more, Guy Ritchie is constantly improving. Perfect growth. Although this "Rock Gang" was scolded by film critics, but after all, the thin camel is bigger than Ma, and Ning Hao can only be regarded as a talented new director today.
Looking back at this "Rock Gang", from the screenwriting to the shooting, from the dialogue to the soundtrack of the film, Guy Ritchie's film features are everywhere. It can be said that Guy Ritchie's 8-year marriage has not regressed in either his writing skills or his filming skills, but in other words, Guy Ritchie's stagnation in the eyes of film critics has almost proved his performance. . Of course, to a certain extent, the limitation of "iconic" makes it very easy for anyone to fall into the criticism of stereotyped routines. Naturally, the debate over breakthrough and maintenance cannot really be the only way to evaluate a director or a movie. standard of truth. In a movie, great screenwriting is crucial, and Guy Ritchie's talent in this area is remarkable. In just 90 minutes, he constructed a huge and intricate plot. The plot in the middle of the game is intertwined, and each character branch has been carefully arranged, but the audience will not feel confused or bewildered. cloud. Every line Guy Ritchie is just right and clear, weaving into a "liar" drama that is intertwined and connected. This requires the director to have extraordinary control. On this point Guy Ritchie has already handed in an excellent answer. Of course, Guy Ritchie's outstanding feature is not only the precise grasp of the plot, but more importantly, the scale of the characters' large-scale dialogue. 90 minutes of plot, nearly 90 minutes of lines, and it fits the plot just right, there is almost no unnecessary nonsense, which in itself is very enough for ordinary directors to learn for a long time. In recent years, only the lines arranged by Quentin's shocking work "Pulp Fiction" have received unanimous praise both inside and outside the industry. Guy Ritchie, from "snatch" to "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels" to this "RocknRolla", although the film itself has no substantial breakthrough changes, but with its current black humor Cult director, we have to Admire and worship Guy Ritchie as a master.
It is such a master-directed work, but in the eyes of film critics, it has almost fallen to the point of worthless. From an objective point of view, the plot of Guy Ritchie's changing soup or not changing medicine will really make some people feel very boring. Coupled with the increasingly strong Hollywood picture, many film critics can't help but criticize Guy Ritchie for losing the pure British brand, and then Take refuge in, and even curry favor with, Hollywood. In the first two works, the characters' language is almost standard London accent, but in today's film you can hear not only American accent, but even Russian accent, as for 100% London accent, you can only hear it in a few street gangsters And gay mouth heard. In fact, film critics don't have to be so sarcastic. For the return after 8 years of marriage, everyone needs a phase of relaxation. At present, they should just look for their feelings, not to mention that this feeling is still controlled on an unusual benchmark.
Personally, I prefer Guy Ritchie's first two works, because by the time I get to this one, to be honest, I'm already starting to get aesthetic fatigue, but even so, I still insist on recognizing Guy Ritchie as the dark humor in Cult. Master status, at least there are not many directors of this type in the film industry today.
