If one day you suddenly found out that no one around you knew what Iron Man, Spiderman, Harry Potter, Starbucks, iPhone, Weibo, Taobao, or your favorite singer, would you be crazy? When I first watched the trailer, I thought this film was silly, how could no one remember #The Beatles# ? But after watching it, it is not difficult to understand. There are suddenly a few fewer people in the world, and several alternative realities have appeared, which is nothing new to those of us who have seen parallel universes and time travel. If you can accept this "What if" setting, this film is actually a very good romantic comedy, and it is very, very funny, and it is full of good music. The feeling after watching it is very similar to watching Richard Curtis's "About Time", not only in a good mood but also in cherishing what is in front of you.
This film is actually not the type of the previous Queen and Elton John biopics. It does not introduce much about the experiences of the Beatles members themselves, but only mentions their names. But the film is full of their songs, and the impact of those songs. The song itself is similar to the background music, and the story focuses on the experience of a small person becoming a star, exploring the huge impact of sudden fame and the importance of sincerity.
The film is really Danny Boyle's funniest work, full of sardonic humor that the British are good at. Kate McKinnon's music businessman is so hilarious and sarcastic that I laughed out loud at almost every line. This role can definitely teach you how to laugh and hurt people. For example, she described the male lead: "You are obviously very thin but you look very round." Lily James is as sweet and lovely as always in the film, and there are also many hilarious lines, such as describing the miracle meeting. When it happens: "Benedict Cumberbatch can be voted the sexiest, what can't happen?!" (poor Benny is teased).
The style of the film is particularly in line with the consistent line of British romantic comedies, which is exactly the same as "True Love", "Four Weddings and One Funeral", and "About Time". The supporting characters are all brilliant, and the music is used just right, funny and warm. When I watched it, I felt that it was not the same as Danny Boyle's previous style, but more like the work of Richard Curtis, the king of RC, and when I went home, it was indeed Richard Curtis. screenwriter! ! The movie is definitely more like aRichard Curtis's movie than Danny Boyle's . But that's why I like this movie more, because I miss these romantic comedies so much. Audiences familiar with British romantic comedies will easily recognize Richard Curtis' style. He is the king of Romantic Comedies!
The actor Himesh Patel's singing skills are very good. To be honest, I think he sings better than the original version of the Beatles. Of course, this film mainly shows the creative talent of the Beatles. Their songs have influenced people of the era, and even if the era has changed, they still can't help but be attracted. It is a classic that can stand the test of time.
Ed Sheeran, the boss of Huang, is the biggest bright spot. Although he seems to be funny in the film, in fact, the film effectively shows the influence of the old generation of musicians on the new generation through him, and also shows that the Beatles are not unsurpassable, excellent In fact, the creators of the company are constantly emerging, and Boss Huang is one of the potential stocks.
Ed Sheeran's newly composed song in this film appears near the end of the film, which is very nice and very suitable for weddings. In the more than 60 weddings I have done, 90% of the first dances of the newcomers used the songs of Boss Huang. It can be seen that his talent is also constantly moving and influencing the world. It would be a huge shame to a lot of people if Ed Sheeran and his songs never existed.
Which person, brand and work has you most regretted and maddened by if it never existed or is remembered?
PS: The biggest winner of this film is actually Google. Every time the male protagonist finds out a celebrity or famous brand he knows, he goes to Google, and if he can't find it, it really means "doesn't exist". Google represents the world we live in. If one day you find that Google can no longer find what you know, then you must have traveled to another parallel universe
