To be honest, this movie is very niche. In modern society, there are many people who know the "Beatles", but there are really not too many people who know the Beatles. The highlight (stalk) of this film is actually the Beatles’ melody, lyrics, albums, peripheral products, social image, personal deeds, etc.; and these are those who only “know the Beatles” Very strange.
When the Beatles saw the lines "When I was sixty-four years old", "A little help from my friends", "Back to school again, Maxwell played stupid again" and so on, they immediately smiled; and just "know "The Beatles" people will only think with a dull look, "Is this sentence special?"
As soon as the Beatles saw the two bare feet in the hero’s illusion, they would immediately know "This is Paul" and thus better understand the hero’s mentality of "fearing to be kicked by the Beatles"; as soon as I saw the audience The shaking little yellow toy will immediately know that this is a "yellow submarine", so that you can understand the plot and explain that "there are still others in this world who still remember the Beatles"; when I see the owner in the wooden house by the sea, I'm afraid the Beatles It was short of breath and wide-eyed, and he was about to exclaim: How can the non-Beatles feel all this?
So what can the non-Beatles feel? story. It’s a pity that this story is too mediocre: "Lying is not a good boy", this kind of theme will soon get tired; the main line plots such as "airborne straight to the top" and "losing status and gaining true love" have been repeated since Mark Twain's "Million Pounds" I don't know how many people have plagiarized it, it is really boring.
The details of the bridge section are simple enough. For example, the male protagonist: When he was successful in his childhood, the "guilt of stealing fame" was too straightforward and harsh, and the audience had long expected that "If this is the case, then he will definitely tell the truth." Another example is the heroine: the reason that the director arranged for her to "depart sadly" is completely inadequate. The audience can obviously have a foreboding that "this relationship will not end", which greatly reduces the joy of the "final reunion". On the other hand, the plot of "encountering true love again" after the heroine "departs" reduces the audience's expectation of "recombination": if the heroine and the heroine get back together, it will inevitably cause the pain of a third party who is not annoying. As a result, the stage of "coming on stage to confess" is strange in every way.
One more sentence: However, I think the heroine's performance is great. Of course, maybe it was because I watched "The Darkest Hour" just a few days ago and I had a good feeling for her. Anyway, I think the heroine is very cute.
All in all, the essence of this movie is actually "The Beatles Highlights + The Beatles Song Karaoke Series"; as far as the plot line of "The Beatles" is concerned, there is only one sentence I want to express: Even the Beatles The song of's being released today can also kill you group of younger generations in seconds. In the eyes of young viewers, this is a piece of "ancient blowing": can it not be a niche?
But I still gave four stars: of course my fellow practitioners know why.
