Buying out the film as a supplement to the sub-account film can enrich the content of the screen in the Mainland a little. There are also films that are not in the first round and are seriously lagging behind other countries or regions, such as the Indian film "My Name is Khan"; the bought-out films are not only the old goods of the next year, such as "The Expendables". ” (213 million). The characteristics of "Fighting Cash Carriage" are the same as last year's buyout films "The Line of Fire" and "Special Mission of the Special Agent". There are stars and actors with familiar faces. The quality of the film is not too hard. Take a look at the stars.
The split movie + buy-out movie is far from satisfying the appetite of movie fans. Although the mainland market is extremely hot, the movie is as pale as ever. Due to economic considerations, the battle between market protection and opening the door will never stop. Among the participants in this political and economic game, audiences and movie fans are outsiders and can only passively accept the film food that is allowed in. Frequent introduction of thunder films and strange films, showing "the world's outstanding civilization achievements and the performance of contemporary film achievements"? Open the door, and the mainland market will definitely be captured by US imperialism like Europe, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan and South Korea. Even if the output value of the film industry does not account for a large share of GDP, it is not as good as the output value created by the foot-washing industry. It still has to be strictly controlled, because preventing the erosion of cultural awareness cannot be relaxed, but it cannot be caused by movies.
You know, Guild Wars Cash Carriage is just for a bottle of soy sauce that doesn't matter. "Hero" was shelved by Miramax for two years. As a result, it became the North American box office champion for two consecutive weeks. But "Hero" is a rare exception. China Film is not the shrewd Weinstein brothers. "Cash Carriage" has a tough guy's gimmick. It has Renault and other stars in command. No compensation is required, and the issuer will not pay too much. Great effort. If you have the energy to get rid of this kind of buyout, it is better to spend more publicity on the split to get more dividends.
Looking at "Fighting Money Transporter" with the mentality of "The Expendables", it is inevitable that you will be disappointed. The tough guy is not fake, the characters in the film are all pure men, and there is not a single woman from the beginning to the end. There are big names like Jean Reno, starring in "The Killer Is Not Too Cold", and Amaury Nolasco, who is well known to Chinese audiences by "Prison Break". With these green leaves, the film is not unfamiliar. Movies like "The Expendables" are real action movies, with a group of action stars from all ages appearing in turn; the action design of "Fighting Cash Carriage" follows a realistic route, without the intention of creating visual spectacles, the performances of several men It is also the main play of the heart.
The strange thing about the film is that there are stereotyped routine designs everywhere, but the overall creativity is out of the stereotype of genre films. There is no dual hero fighting like "The Wire", nor is it a crime film of a confrontation between police and bandits like "Robbers in the City". Several security guards who transported banknotes guarded themselves against theft. From motivation to accident to ending, they have been relying on the inherent mutation of human nature to promote the development of the plot. The smile of the protagonist in the ending is a typical crime movie winner.
Crime films reject morality and want to promote morality. This film does the opposite. The protagonist tries to break through the shackles of morality because of the pressure of reality, but after all, he is dragged back to his original place by humane feelings. Emphasizing morality, humanity, and responsibility, while disregarding moral feelings, tough-guy crime films have become serious realist satires. The rush of the script itself, the way the director handles it, and more is the interpretation of the actors, making the character change of the protagonist too flat. Amaury Nolasco can kill his companions, why can't he kill the traitorous protagonist? The protagonist faces the scene of Amory Nolasco's suicide, with an innocent expression and lack of change, making the protagonist a hesitant and rigid coward.
Completely abandoning the rules of crime genre films, focusing less on the management of the car chase scene, and replacing it with a few acting men, "Fighting Money Transporter" can completely become an excellent and unique low-cost production. Sometimes it focuses on the portrayal of characters, and sometimes it pursues a car chase scene, and the film sways. It is much more complicated than "The Expendables". "The Expendables" convened several action stars to lay out action scenes, play some cold humor, and add some love elements. It is a commercial action nostalgic film. "Fighting Money Transporter" is pure enough. There is no female role, and the commercial element of love is missing, but it is not pure enough. It plays with the changes of human nature, and relies on the label of action to lure the audience into the venue. The chicken soup for the soul concocted by a few gentlemen, just like their appearance, is a bit rough. Morality and responsibility lead to mutiny and the death of brothers. This bowl of chicken soup for the soul is simply out of touch with reality. No, nothing, is this just a satire? I don't know how to digest a movie that seems so simple.
In fact, this is not an action film, but a literary film. 【Sohu Entertainment Review Channel】
