Disappointment with the "Wolf Warrior 2" Phenomenon

"Spirited Away" is the top box office in Japanese film history, India is "Baahubali", South Korea is "Ming Liang Sea Battle", and Brazil is "Elite Force". I don't mean to criticize "Wolf Warrior 2". But I think that the historical box office of each country should be a portrayal of the public's aesthetics, the general sense of art and the direction of fundamental identification with one's own culture. The film itself should also be of the highest quality at the same time period, with the most selling points and the most shining points. Obviously; "Wolf Warrior 2" has its selling point of combining with the current background and shaking the hearts of the people, which can be called a good work, but its weakness in the setting of the play can't make it a good one. A masterpiece, the design of each plot point, such as the motivation of the rebels, and the depiction of war, are somewhat locked in the bridge rather than a reasonable interpretation. The cooperation between the plot lines is a bit over-jumping. The sensational is good, but excessive. It is not appropriate to show and compare. In the eyes of people all over the world, the highest-grossing Chinese-language works should not be like this; in the same period, "Embroidered Spring Knife 2" and "The Founding of an Army" far surpassed it in the level of the drama system; the same main theme, in the production level The hardware conditions such as special effects and editing "Founding Army" and "Operation Mekong" also have obvious advantages, and the use of actors in these two is equally amazing; I am not unpatriotic, and "Wolf Warrior 2" is also better than 1. Wu Jing is improving, and I am looking forward to it. In the third film, several leading actors are very eye-catching; but with such a rush to the box office of nearly 4 billion, I am a little disappointed in the Chinese film market

    It is more and more like "Die Hard" + "Fast and Furious" in its bones, a genre of tough guy action film, but its selling point is patriotism, and it cannot be completely made into a story of personal heroism, because it has to be calculated. The iron-blooded audience must still carry the dual pride of the country and the nation behind it. The Wolf Warriors series has also made money and reputation by relying on this precise audience positioning, but it also has to pay the price of encountering official resistance.

    Burn! The big scene is really not to lose the foreign blockbuster and it is not embarrassing. Wu Jing's play is very exciting, and the underwater fight is also very powerful. It must be ambitious to Zhang Han. This role is simply an easter egg. Contract all the laughs and tailor it for him. Hahaha, Peng Yuyan can't play it. Is really good-looking
