We respect the sadness of clowns, but never at a circus show

If a commercial film director suddenly has the feelings and ambitions of an art film, he starts a montage with a metaphor of "going to the desolation", and uses a fairly stereotyped approach to tell a seemingly exciting story about an ambitious plan. , and finally ends with a sad and lonely ending, you will definitely feel that the film is unfinished, and you will wonder if the director is used to treating condiments as dinner, because "this is not the same as what was promised." Since your packaging is to let the audience walk into the movie theater with a happy mentality, and you really tell the story in this way, then the audience is more likely to see an obscure protagonist and his team implement a crazy plan Go through all kinds of hardships and finally win big, beat Wall Street at high speed and gain both fame and fortune Similar to "Orson's Eleven Thieves" or "The Fast and the Furious" story rather than a no-name guy halfway through his crazy plan He found out that he had cancer and failed to pursue high speed, and he felt that his life was short. In the end, he was a nameless guy who was plagued by illness. He even pulled the giant behind him into the water. It's similar... The story of "Hummingbird Project" can't find such a shameless reference system. It's just the so-called director and screenwriter who doesn't know what to say and is self-righteous. He could have written a piece of paper to prove that he is an author, but when he made a movie, he could only pretend to be an "author", and I always believed in professional people. Doing professional things, professional people can give full play to their expertise only when they are doing their professional things, but the director's "smearing" this time is really not that good. I'm not trying to categorize them. I think what should be the director of a commercial film, and what should be the director of an art film. We respect the sadness of clowns, but never at a circus show. 6 points.

ps: But I have to say, "Juixi" is really a wizard.
