The first reaction after watching it is that Jay is so talented! After all, movies are different from MVs. As a singer who is not suitable for the film industry, it is not easy to play the leading role in a story that he came up with out of thin air. Even directing it himself is absolutely impossible without a certain amount of courage and self-confidence. The key is that Jay did not disappoint those who liked him, nor did he give those who hated him a chance to watch his failed show, from the plot development, camera usage, shooting skills to the set, color, soundtrack, editing, all revealed With a professional tone, it doesn't look like a debut novel at all, how amazing is it. Although many people have mentioned the suspicion of plagiarizing some business cards, they cannot deny the success of this film. At least what I have learned is that most people who have watched this film, whether they like him or not, think it is good-looking, It's touching, and it seems to be unfinished. For newcomers, this is already a great encouragement. And there are many people arguing about the plot and details on the Internet, which also proves the watchability of the film from one aspect.
Of course, while praising Jay's potential as a director, he also has to point out that from an actor's point of view, Jay is still in a state of unlearned rookie. This time, he played a young boy again following "Initial D". He did not fully adhere to the previous performance style, but was more like him in life. There was a little liveliness and cunning in the eyes of a pair of dull Mimi. Although the dialogue was stingy, It shows unique humor and self-confidence in short and concise, and the amazing musical talent is even more fully revealed. However, the performance that is too authentic seems to be insufficiently studied, especially when the plot in the second half of the film takes a sharp turn, Jay failed to grasp the ups and downs of the character's emotions, so that the role of Xiao Lun lost his due attraction and emotional tension. inferior. From a certain point of view, Xiao Lun does not have the personality charm of an independent hero, but rather acts like a clue for the development of the plot, which only plays a role in threading the needle.
In this way, Jay didn't learn much from the big-name opponents he worked with compared to the hard work he worked with as a director. There is no need to go back to Fa Ge and Gong Li in the Golden Armor. Huang Qiusheng, who played his father twice, has already perfected his acting skills. Although there is not much room for breakthroughs and breakthroughs as a supporting role, the chic and ease of the old actors is impressive. And when it comes to Gui Lunmei, I can boldly speculate that if 50% of the people watching this film are directed at Jay, then at least 30% are directed at her. Gui Lunmei, who is always as pleasant as ice cream, her facial features are not delicate but very comfortable and attractive. In her, the tenderness and affinity of the girl next door and the precocious indifference and loneliness coexist wonderfully, and achieve a balance and harmony. beauty of. Jay obviously picked the right person. Although Gui Lunmei still has the pure shadow of "The Blue Door" in her gestures, in this film she shows a completely young girl in a sensitive period of youth. She plays coy, jealous, happy, and sad with ease and effortlessness. A pair of talking eyes are as smart as a lake of water. Sometimes they can make people hopelessly believe and like her, and sometimes they always feel that there is a mystery hidden in this lake, which makes people puzzled and even faintly disturbed. .
For the role of Xiaoyu, her nervousness and chicken stomach were once understood as spoiled willfulness, but when the film tells us how her teachers, classmates and mother hurt her, not only is everything diluted with sympathy On the contrary, she was also moved by her simple and persistent love. If you can understand the pain of being suspected, deceived, and betrayed by your most trusted teacher, the pain of being misunderstood, isolated, ridiculed, and stigmatized by envious peers, and the resentment of not being trusted by a mother who depends on each other, you will find her The low self-esteem, vulnerability and helplessness hidden in her heart, she understands that her strong jealousy is just to remind Xiao Lun that she can't stand stimulation and must not do things that hurt her heart. In her own time and space, she can only live in her own world, hate, but she no longer makes senseless explanations to anyone, just silently accuses her of her repression and practice her rebellion. Obviously, in this situation, the love of Xiao Lun from another time and space has become her last spiritual support and hope, which is why she can't help but go back to twenty years before the piano room was destroyed to solve the pain of lovesickness , Seeing Xiao Lun for the last time, in fact, if she hadn't been sharp-eyed and saw Qingyi's bracelet on Xiao Lun's wrist, she would not have decided to stay in this time and space where Xiao Lun lived. However, she was already bruised and bruised and could not withstand any blows. Contacting the scene of Xiao Lun and Qingyi kissing in the piano room, she naturally thought that she had been deceived and betrayed, and fell into a quagmire of despair. A tragedy of yin and yang.
"I'm Xiaoyu. I love you. Do you love me?" Xiaoyu wrote these words with Li Kebai in her heartbreak, but because it was twenty years earlier, she could not get a positive answer from Xiao Lun and could not clarify The misunderstanding between each other, such a heart-wrenching scene appeared in front of them, and no one could refuse to sigh with regret. It is precisely because of this that at the end of the film, the confused Xiao Yu smiled at Xiao Lun, who was covered in filth. The graduation photo finally left the two youthful and innocent faces. I felt at ease. All the depression and the disintegration of the joy, I am gratified for Xiaoyu to get rid of the tragic fate and move towards a happy life, and also for Xiao Lun to give up all the love that imprisoned him until 20 years ago in order to save Xiaoyu. Even worldly doubts can't get in the way, and the barriers of time and space can't be let go. This is true and firm love, the softest, most beautiful but also the sharpest and most powerful emotion in the world.
There's no denying that Jay is smart. In this film, he made full use of his previous experience in shooting MVs, and once again expressed his unforgettable campus memories and detective feelings, and cleverly combined the relaxed and delicate first half of the story with the heavy and atmospheric atmosphere of the second half. The style of the film that combines romance and suspense is just right, which not only achieves a breakthrough for itself, but also reflects a certain ability to control. At the same time, Jay also knows how to make use of his strengths and circumvent weaknesses. He uses the music he is good at as the main tool for the protagonist to communicate and communicate to complete the subversion of fate. This feature allows the audience to enjoy the listening pleasure while satisfying the pure beauty of viewing, thus ignoring it to a certain extent. Questions and flaws arising from the secondary space.
Speaking of which, it is probably due to the influence of the mindset of science students, who is always habitually nitpicking in the eggs, and never tires of it, especially when encountering such sci-fi + suspense movies. Like many people, I didn't really understand the movie after watching the movie, so I felt that the movie was full of bugs. After solving the puzzles on the Internet, I found that it was my doubts that really couldn't stand scrutiny, which made me almost miss it. The best idea in the story. Although the story was originally written by Jay, the writers have enriched it into such a logical script, which is really admirable, and reminds me of the highly regarded sci-fi classic "Back to the Future" trilogy. However, I still have to say that the plot setting of this film is still not far from being rigorous, although I also understand that over-analysis will inevitably affect the beauty and moving of the film.
One is about stealth. For Xiao Lun, one person is talking and laughing at this air, and it is strange that others don't take him as a madman, and for Xiao Yu who is twenty years later, is it the person who can't see her and the time and space she is holding in twenty years? Can't see anything? More importantly, Xiaoyu could not be seen but impossible not to be touched. Even if he deliberately kept a distance from others, no matter how careful he was, there was always the danger of being caught. Whether it's a piano fight or a dance, it's a crowded place. Once people meet her, they can pass through her, won't those who can see her feel strange? It's so illogical that it doesn't make sense.
Second, about the eyes. Walking from the piano room to the classroom with my eyes closed is still not much or not, just 108 steps, which is a bit difficult for a person with open eyes, but surprisingly easy for Xiao Yu. Although it is only 108 steps, there are twists and turns and steps during the period, and bumps are inevitable. How to ensure that the position is fixed? Furthermore, under normal circumstances, the viewing angle of a person must be at least 90 degrees. How can you ensure that the moment you open your eyes, you will see that person in a certain seat, not a group of people including the surrounding seats?
Third, about the speed of the piano. According to the description on the title page of the piano score, the way Xiaoyu travels between the two time and space completely depends on the speed of the piano, but in fact, only the score that reaches the future and not the score that goes back, how much the speed of the piano must be in order to return to the full twenty years At the moment before, the film did not give a specific answer, but generally told us to play fast to go back. So, how Xiaoyu avoids the dislocation of time and space is unknown. And Xiao Lun used a faster piano speed than Xiao Yu in order to finish the music before the piano room was destroyed, so that he suddenly returned to the earlier day of school 20 years ago, which is understandable, but the interesting thing is that The first thing he saw was Xiaoyu, and since he had not picked up the piano score, he had never seen Xiaolun's Xiaoyu, so it was too coincidental that the two ended up in the best direction. There is no other way to explain fate and fate.
Fourth, about the shape. The time and space between the two people are twenty years apart, and the school uniform has not changed. It's okay, just think that the school is more traditional and rigid. Most people don't look carefully, and even if they look at it, they can't see any difference. So what about other than that? Twenty years is not two years after all, but they don’t see the imprint of the times with different popular elements from their dresses. Is it a test of the fashion industry’s saying that every 20 or 30 years is a cycle, or is it a comrade who is in charge of costumes and props Didn't expect this layer?
Finally, about the note. The reason why Xiao Lun and Xiaoyu have gone through so many pains and choices, the problem at the beginning lies in the note "See you in the piano room at seven o'clock". At that time and space, Xiao Lun's classmates could not see Xiao Yu. Obviously, the note could only fall on Qingyi's hand, so why was Xiao Yu who got the note from Xiao Lun's point of view? Moreover, Xiaoyu's expression also told us that she did see the note at that moment, but she was clearly sitting in the back seat of Qingyi. Could it be that she traveled through time and space, in addition to turning into an invisible person, she also had a see-through eye Can't do it? Well, even if she does have a see-through eye, it is an indisputable fact that Qingyi has a note. In fact, with Xiaoyu's sensitivity and meticulousness, she should have already discovered the secret that Qingyi also likes Xiaolun, but at this time Xiaoyu doesn't mind, and she can't think of it. It was too unreasonable that Qingyi would go to the appointment. Such contradictions are puzzling, and this is what I think is the biggest bug in the film.
ps: mm who plays Qingyi is really pp, like a mixture of Gillian and Kim Tae-hee, and she has a good face. Did you see it in any commercial? hehe. . .
