But the box office of this film may not be too low in China, just like "Transformers", or "Jurassic World", these movies make money by trapping fans in memories, and those movies "to youth" are the same way Numbers, their focus is not on pioneering and innovation, but on reappearing in the past. The more familiar scenes, the better the motivation. So for me, this movie is no longer a simple movie, but can evoke a series of memories.
The greatest strength of this film is that it takes my mind back to the days of videotape all of a sudden. At that time, there was no internet, and there was no expert guidance. I really watched a lot of bad movies. To say that my taste in watching movies was really slowly groping up step by step. Writer Shi Kang once said: When you met Martin Sixes, when did you start watching movies? This is for grassroots moviegoers like me, not the lofty moviegoer who saw Raging Bull for the first time. I belong to the kind of school that starts from the cultivation style, constantly improves my cultivation, and constantly encounters better movies. Sometimes I envy those academic schools like "Seven Swords Down the Tianshan Mountains". They have a high starting point and less After taking a lot of detours, it was particularly profound as soon as the shot was made. However, I also have an advantage, that is, I have a lot of experience in Jianghu, and they are not willing to talk to them about the film works of Stephen Seager, Jean-Pierre Lundgren and Lundgren.
Going back to the videotape era, I personally have an unparalleled hobby for police and bandit films, detective films, and spy films. I have also caught up with works such as "24 Hours", "CSI", and "Homeland Security" after watching American TV series. Therefore, most of the movies I watch are mostly of this type. At that time, there was not much pocket money, and I was very cautious when renting videotapes, for fear that the rented movies would not look good and the limited money was wasted. Because of prudence, in addition to the more familiar Hong Kong films, American films only watch the works of a few actors who are ignorant and ignorant, such as Stallone, Schwarzenegger, and Jean-Claude Vincent. It's not without reason that Jean-Claude Winston appeared in "Pancake Man". For me back then, he was an action star no less than Schwarzenegger.
As for Bruce Willis, Harrison Ford, Nicolas Cage, these "nobody" works, I don't dare to try them. Every time I spend a long time rummaging in the rental store, this behavior has attracted the attention of the boss. The owner of this store is a hardcore commercial movie fan. I recommend you watch two movies. If you come back after watching it, if you say it's boring in your conscience, I won't charge you. The two movies he recommended to me for the first time were "Terminator 1" and "Die Hard 1", it's really dark, I plan to put a long line to catch big fish, and I recommend series of movies to me, so I'm not grateful at all He, actually the first movie he recommended to me at the time was Dr. No (the first in the 007 series).
Every legendary Hollywood action star has his own set of classics, Stallone's "First Blood", Schwarzenegger's "Terminator", Harrison Ford's "Indiana Jones", Mel · Gibson's "Bombshell", Bruce Willis' "Die Hard", Jackie Chan's "Police Story" and Jet Li's "Once Upon a Time"... These movies satisfy all the boys' fantasies about heroes, So many years later, people are still willing to pay for these movies and these stars. When production companies and action stars run out of talent, they will restart their own classics and rely on nostalgia for a vote. The movie stars listed above, except Mel Gibson has no place in Hollywood because he offended the Jews, the rest of the classics have returned. Schwarzenegger, who shouted "I'll be back" decades ago, was delayed by the governor's work, but now he is finally back.
However, the sequelae is that if the work is not good enough, the feelings of the fans will be polished sooner or later. It's as if you helped me once and I'm very grateful, but this kind of favor can't be repaid. In my opinion, "The Taoist Goes Down the Mountain" is considered to have finished the favor of "Farewell My Concubine". Whoever owes a movie ticket is not valid for 10,000 years. In the eyes of old fans, this "Terminator" can only be attributed to the ranks of returning people's favor.
I remember that in 1999, Schwarzenegger, who had been out of film for two years, returned to the big screen with the film "The Last Day of the Devil". When his name appeared on the screen, the American audience collectively applauded his return. It felt no less than Jordan's first comeback. It felt like half a lifetime after not seeing him for two years. Up to now, American audiences have long been tired of these old guys, even if they show up together like the Suicide Squad, they don't buy it. So they turned to China, the last economic growth point of world movies. "Transformers" and "The Expendables" even became movies specially made for China. The old Schwarzenegger also came to China in order to please the Chinese audience. , he even went to participate in variety shows. Can it be imagined back then? However, how long can the old feelings of the Chinese audience be squeezed out? Chinese movies are not enough on their own.
Looking at Schwarzenegger's gray-haired image in the movie, I can't help but sigh, just like in "Raging Bull", the old boxing champion LaMotta can only have a fat belly on the talk show stage in a nightclub. to please the audience. He rehearsed repeatedly in front of the mirror backstage, looking desolate and desolate. Recalling that Garbo, who was in the prime of his life in those days, resolutely went into hiding, he was afraid that the hero would fade away and the beauty would grow old.
