In 2013, Hugh Jackman announced that he had a skin tumor. Fortunately, the treatment was found in time and successfully prevented the deterioration of the disease.
During Hugh Jackman's illness, he was concerned about the hearts of many fans, mainly due to the success of his role as "Wolverine" in the "X-Men" and "Wolverine" series of movies, so he also He is affectionately called "Uncle Wolf" by fans.
Because the role of Wolverine is too successful, while helping Hugh Jackman to become a Hollywood superstar, it also shackles the development of his film career.
So, Hugh Jackman kept trying other different roles besides Wolverine.
"Memories of Mystery" is Hugh Jackman's latest masterpiece in 2021. Behind this film is not only the blessing of the movie giant Warner, but also the goddess Rebecca Ferguson and the male god Wu Yanzu.
The story of the film takes place in the future when the sea level rises a lot. If you look down, it feels like a water city in Venice. The male protagonist Nick played by Uncle Wolf is a retired soldier who runs a store to help customers recall the good past. The device used for the memory is a water-type projection memory device full of sci-fi colors. In private, Linick also accepts work to assist the government in solving cases.
The arrival of a mysterious beauty completely broke Nick's peaceful life. It was originally just a simple job of helping the beauty to find the key, but Nick fell into a quagmire.
The beauty Mei played by Rebecca Ferguson is really charming and charming. As soon as she appears, the deer in Nick's heart collides with each other. , Nick will almost lose his mind trying to find May.
Of course, in the end he found that he had fallen into a scam. The most important thing in this scam was to make Nick feel deceived. But after his unremitting efforts to find the truth, he found that May had feelings for him, and he had a good heart. The reason why he became a liar was because he was coerced and gave his life to protect the little boy, so Nick's heart was relieved.
The film goes around such a big circle, and it is nothing more than trying to prove the power of true love. As for the characters of Nick and May, it is not so important, and science fiction and suspense have long been thrown out of the sky.
It took less than 10 minutes from the appearance of Wu Yanzu, who made many fans concerned, to receiving the box lunch. His character in the film is very similar to Azu in "New Police Story" back then, full of hostility and unrestrainedness Taming, of course, the final outcome is very tragic.
It is a pity that the collision between "Uncle Wolf" Hugh Jackman and "Azu" Daniel Wu did not produce intense sparks, and the anticlimactic plot structure completely dragged down this otherwise wonderful film.
After "Memories of Mystery" was released in more than 3,000 theaters in North America, the opening score was only 2 million US dollars. This kind of box office is not to mention compared with "Out of Control Player" released in the same period, even with the animated film "Pao Wang Team". ” is also dwarfed by comparison.
It is rumored that the production cost of the film is as high as 70 million US dollars, so it seems that even if Warner's streaming media business is included, it is a high probability of losing money. 【END】
