The theme song of the new version of footloose was sung by blake shelton. To be honest, I still feel that the old kenny version is more flavorful. The CMA awards ceremony was fortunate to see the chorus version of footloose by the old man and blake.
Let’s talk about the difference between the new version of footloose and the old version, quoting from Yidouyou: The essence of the original version of Footloose is the family drama of the priest’s family, but the new version shifts the focus to Ren and becomes the story of the growth of the youth, which undoubtedly makes the plot. It has become more compact, but it is a little regrettable that in general, the character of Ren has not developed a new dimension for him except that the new version has become heavier. There are no major innovations in the plot, no major changes, and the lines of some scenes are exactly the same. This is rather disappointing, even a bit of a copycat feeling. But compared to the simple dance of the 84 version, the new version of the dance is more in line with the style of the current era, while retaining the classic jive fragments of the old version of the dance.
The new version of the male and female protagonists are professional dancers/choreographers
bacon version of ren, with both righteous and evil faces, and yuppie temperament. The kenny wormald version of ren is more of a simple and honest temperament. Although Kenny's acting skills have improved a little during the same period of Central Stage 2, the acting skills are still not enough. They can’t be released, and some expressions are more bitter. It is estimated that the new version of ren is this The change of background is also related to Kenny's own character, the old version of Ren is more of the character of Yuppies and Sunshine.
At present, Kenny's acting skills still need to be polished. The difference is that when he arrives on the stage, the spotlight is on him. Only at this time can he reflect his star temperament and hold the whole scene.
The story of the new version of ren is heavy. The focus of the movie is on ren's growth. The new version of ren did not move to the town with his mother, but he returned to his hometown alone after his mother died of cancer. It’s interesting because Kenny is from Boston, and Ren’s city is not Chicago but Beaumont. It was purely the director’s changes due to Kenny’s accent. The
new version of Ariel’s brother Bobby’s car accident appeared in the new version, but the old version does not have this section. Ariel's brother's car accident was also the fuse for the priest and council to issue a ban, which added drama to the new version.
The old version of Ariel is a very yuppy girl who is full of fire and crazy in his heart. The reason why he likes chuck is only because of his cynical attitude. The famous local gangsters, the old version of Ariel's girlfriend rusty, played well, and quite flowery. I’m crazy, remember a classic line from the old version of Rusty: and the late friday nights, by the light of the full moon, he breaks into churchyards and bites the heads off live chickens, everyone is right about this coming out to break the silence of the town The child is full of admiration and curiosity. The new version of rusty still plays well, the new version of Ariel has no yuppie temperament, more wild and hot. The hero and heroine are both dancers, but the heroine is better than Kenny, let go, but sometimes she does something.
The supporting roles in the old version, although not many in the role, are very good, similar to woody, they advise ren, and they are also very tall. They help beat up the chuck brothers in front of the supermarket, and support ren, the feeling of being a boss . In the new version, the role of woody is indeed dispensable.
The character of Willard feels much more broken than the old version. The old version of this character is very successful, and the new version of Willard does not perform frequently except for Let's Hear It for the Boy. The new version of Woody and Willard is too non-existent.
I think the difference between the old and the new version of priests is not that big. A father who overprotects his daughter, although the new version of the priest’s wife is not bad, he still thinks the old version is better. A good wife and mother, as the wife of a small preacher who is so enthusiastic about preaching, when she was angry with her husband in the church, she raised her husband in a soft voice with a super peaceful smile, and severely criticized her husband. It's a pass, thoughtful, and all kinds of scenes are very vivid, and the temperament is very good, although there are not many scenes, it is very eye-catching.
Especially the old priests and couples went to watch the children's dance from a distance, excited and afraid of disturbing the children. A wife who silently supported her husband, and an overprotective father, like a parent who had thrown away a toddler's hand, the two embraced each other in tears. The scene was really touching. (This new version of the bridge actually has a
lot of rice.) The conflicts between parents and children are largely due to family affection and love. They are all conflicts between parents in protecting their children.
The debate between the old and new versions of ren and the veterans of the town is not much different. Kenny has performed his own taste here, without the shadow of bacon.
The old version of the chicken shit fight tractor battle is really exciting. It really belongs to the passionate young people in the 80s. Bonnie Tyler’s “Holding Out for a Hero” soundtrack was full of enthusiasm at the time. There was no tractor station in the new version, and there were more drag stations, which was quite popular.
Many Americans watched this play and deeply recognized the cultural differences between the North and the South. Some of Ren came to Beaumont that were out of place, but we couldn't see this.
Jamal Sims designed dances for the film mostly in Free Style style. Although they were strictly choreographed and adjusted, they looked like improvisations. The director said: "I like this kind of dance, simple and casual but full of energy and enthusiasm. We tried many kinds of choreography, and finally found that Free Style is still the most suitable style for the film. This is what we did. Kenny's dance moves are like he is free to play, and it is quite kenny style. The line dance in the bar was also very popular during the film's release. Fans asked the choreographer to post the original choreography video to YouTube. Indeed, some movie fans took their self-taught jokes and took them to the Internet to decompose and teach.
The new version of footloose's dance is very good, not a flood of black bubbles. Unlike other musicals, the plot weight is also very large. The story is very loyal to the original version, but lacks innovation. Unlike Disney’s musicals that are sweet and greasy, the new version of footloose is more like a spicy hot pot. The dance party also retains the old version of jive group dance, and the new and old version of the title design The close-ups of all kinds of shoes, various feet and various dance steps are very interesting and catching, and they are very substituting into the scene. Party is on!!! Everyone dances casually, not a rigid black cannon party fighting dance.
Kenny is on The angry dancing part of the dance is also quite
brilliant , as well as his continuous somersault. The new version of footloose has a good performance at the local box office, and the reviews given by the media are also quite positive. The remake is quite successful, although the innovation is not great, two newcomers The acting skills are also a bit flawed. The response among the teenagers is also very good. On the reputation of film critics, the old and new versions are mixed.
PS: If you want to see the footloose dance stage version of
