After watching the movie, under the condition that the quality is guaranteed, there is room and possibility for discussion on the following two questions:
1. Can the box office of "Dragon Hunt" surpass that of "Monster Hunt"?
2 Can this film represent the highest level of the Chinese film industry system?
"Looking for the Dragon" VS "Monster Hunt"?
Both of these films can be called oriental magic series, and they also incorporate light comedy elements. They are both well-made 3D works, and the viewing experience is guaranteed to a certain extent. In terms of production effect, each has its own advantages, but the underground world created by "Dragon Hunting" is more spectacle, with more shocking imagination, and the 3D special effects are more valuable.
In terms of subject matter, the latter takes advantage of the advantages of "family fun" and is suitable for all ages to watch; while "Searching for the Dragon" is a bit "not suitable for children", zombie characters, tomb robbery themes, and eerie tombs will still attract some audiences. Blocked out of the theater.
In terms of stories, both films have many flaws. The action scenes of "Long Searching" are so exciting that they burst, but the literary drama and lines are a bit stiff.
From the perspective of the cast, it is obvious that "Looking for the Dragon" is better. Chen Kun, Huang Bo, Shu Qi, these three groups are enough, just pick any one person, and they can make a blockbuster alone; but Maybe I'm blind, but I think Shu Qi's performance is very average. Some people like her mixed Chinese and English babbling and coquettish look, but I only feel that I travel back to Taiwan idol dramas in one second, and it's very dance. In addition, I am also very grateful to Angel Baby In it, it was just the vase, and the task was successfully completed without leaving too much room for the audience to complain.
In the current era of "Little Fresh Meat", I really cherish the cast of "Looking for the Dragon". They are strong and can stand the test. The audience doesn't need to worry about the actors' acting skills. They can enjoy the movie with confidence and peace of mind. . Besides, "appearance" is basically something that every actor has. Look at how handsome Chen Kun is, with his aura, the melancholy between his brows and eyes, no fresh meat can act it, who has never been younger? , but not everyone has acting skills.
As a purely commercial film, discussing the box office is something that shouldn’t be blushing at all. At present, the top Chinese film box office list is “Monster Hunt” with 2.4 billion 39, and it is also the only domestic film with over 2 billion. , Of course, everyone also knows that this 2.4 billion was a long battle line at that time, and there were also a lot of tricks. At the time of the release of "Dragon Hunt", the most worthy of discussion is, can "Dragon Hunt" break the record of "Monster Hunt"?
There is a record out there that is always going to be broken. "Looking for the Dragon" has a strong roots, full of style and strong aura. If it is this movie to set a new record, it seems to be the best. After experiencing the tragic bad movie stalls in early December, I wonder how much revengeful movie watching energy the Chinese audience with long-standing resentment can burst out, and how much can they support the movie market at the end of December.
The highest level of commercial film?
Furthermore, in my opinion, "Looking for the Dragon" basically represents the highest level of the Chinese film industry system. The three strongest film companies have joined forces and have enough money to invite the best actors and the best actors. Good special effects company, make a decent movie.
In the past, when I watched movies such as "Fuchun Mountain Residence", I always wondered, why is it not bad for money, if you can find big stars and a group of amazing staff, you can't do a good job in this situation seriously What about things? Do you have to waste your good cards?
And this time, "Looking for the Dragon" finally gave a positive case, demonstrating the correct way to open a large-scale movie. In this way, this is exciting. A group of rich people, plus professional people, follow the Standard commercial production processes work hard and end up making good movies, not weird upstart products.
Now there are basically two types of films in the Chinese cinema chain: films and other things that I don’t know anything about; these “others” include variety shows, photo albums, funny videos and other ever-changing and rich forms; and films should be serious in nature. Yes, it needs to be taken seriously, so when a movie like "Looking for the Dragon" appears, I will be glad that there are still filmmakers who are not taking chances, but are actually doing "big guys". Chinese movies need a small cost of four or two thousand pounds. A great work also needs this kind of giant work that reflects the industrial nature. So, look forward to the box office performance of "Looking for the Dragon". After all, by the end of the year, I expect a good harvest in the film market.
