In fact, it is a disadvantage to build a fortress of connotation too much. The film "Spy on the Sea" is out of tune with such a young movie viewing situation. First of all, in recent years, the height of this type of film has long been positioned in Gao Qunshu's "The Wind". It can be said that in many places, "The Sound of the Wind" is even better than this "Sea of Spies". Whether it is the editing and editing of the plot, the careful arrangement of the plot, or the performance of the actors in place, there are many places where "Spy on the Sea" has not done enough. It's just that the film's unilateral production skills and craftsmanship are stronger. This one-sided production process refers to a few carefully selected actors.
Of course, casting is an important part of making a movie, but it's obviously not enough to satisfy the moviegoers with the superb craftsmanship that only sets this off. It can't be said that this is a common problem in film production. It can only be said that pursuing a high level of unilateralism will often lead to mischief. Obviously, "Spy on the Sea" finally collapsed and vomited blood. Although "The Sound of the Wind" did not make much fanfare, please All kinds of big names, but it is obviously not inferior to "Spy Sea" in the film production process. Comparing the two films from the plot, story, and shooting techniques can clarify this positive point of view.
It can basically be said that the story of the film "Spy on the Sea" is still a simple emotional dispute. The story tells us that in that war era when gunpowder smoke filled the city, the Yankee as a spy should not be the wife of a small Japanese political official. , the consequence is obviously a dead end, and then, under the premise of playing with women casually, the face of the gang tycoon in China is still the most important, even if the wife wants to escape with the Yankee at the last critical moment, she must appear personable and warm. Without losing elegance, the story of the film also tells us that it is sometimes not a bad thing to make bad friends, even if the bad friend you made later becomes your enemy. In the decisive battle of life and death, you let him go and not kill him, then, a little bit. When the temperature is checked in the future, you will basically let you go if you want to escape.
On the whole, the story is told smoothly and smoothly, and there is no stuck, but it seems to have no charm. I don’t know what it wants to express. Let’s look at it superficially. But the little Japanese officials were killed, but the Yankees not only did not kill them, but let them go. They also "abducted" the wife of the Chinese tycoon. It can be said that the United States has benefited, and it is not the small Japan that has not gained. It was China who lost the army after his wife, which made people very angry. Finally, when I saw the director of the film, I suddenly realized that the director was an American.
Looking back at the film itself, the production of the film "Spy on the Sea" is so-so, it can be said that there is almost no bright spot, the plot is relatively scattered, and some plots are obviously superfluous, thinking that the overall film can be enriched. It's enough, if you cut out some patchwork plots, the overall effect may be more pleasing to the eye.
The background of the film is dominated by gray tones. Although it seems to have a little depth in a certain sense, it is too exaggerated. The background of that era is too dull, monotonous, and the scene without improvement is matched with the messy background music that can make The film is horribly lost. The performance of the actors also failed to achieve the effect. The plot, which was supposed to soothe emotions, showed a sense of urgency.
These many deficiencies show that the film failed after all. The low-key ending of the high-profile release also shows that such a spy war blockbuster is not popular after all. Think about it, the film is expected to be liked by middle-aged and elderly people, but the greasy emotional drama is expected to be watched by the elderly. If you want to open up the middle-aged and elderly market in this young film and television market, you should also think carefully. However, if you are directed by Yankee, you can't blame you for not understanding the Chinese market. I advise you to keep the film of "Sea of Spies" by yourself.
