Especially after watching "Little Tear Generation 4" and "Blooming Flowers", I want to come to Amway's "Monster Hunt" even more.
And after interviewing the owner of "Monster Hunt" Jiang Zhiqiang, I secretly said to myself, I'm sorry for my conscience if I don't watch this movie twice!
Reason 1: Does not supporting "Monster Hunt" condone "Little Times 4" and "The Taoist Goes Down the Mountain"?
"It was clearly agreed to reshoot together at the beginning, so why don't you guys do the shit, I'm the only one who reshoots, will I still know how to love in the future?" The boss's mood is broken.
Originally, according to Zong Ju's regulations, all the scenes involving Ke Zhendong and Jaycee Chan could not be used and could only be reshot. However, in the end, in the first two films, both Ke Zhendong and Jaycee Chan appeared in various ways and behind their backs. Only "Monster Hunt" was really hard work, and it was reshot in a solid way. If it wasn't for the reshoot, "Monster Hunt" would have been released long ago, not to mention the strongest competition in this summer of thirty or forty movies. file appeared. The most unpleasant thing is that the two films that have not been remade have now reached several hundred million at the box office, and it has been determined that they will not lose money. On the contrary, law-abiding and good citizens are just because they are too honest. Losing money, let’s not talk about the quality of the film, if such works should not be supported, let alone against film investors, at least it is a disguised encouragement for those speculators. I'm really sorry, as a person with three views, I really can't do this!
Reason 2: How can a sentimental film boss not support?
"Let's not talk about money first, and strive to control our destiny in our own hands." Jiang Zhiqiang said.
Different from the way of publicity of general movies, the main role in the promotion of "Monster Hunt" is not the actor and director, but the investor Jiang Zhiqiang. In addition to being the president of Anle Film Co., Ltd., Jiang Zhiqiang is also the producer and overseas distributor of Ang Lee and Zhang Yimou. "Time" magazine once called Jiang Zhiqiang an "Asian hero", but he is a low-key person, although he has created a blockbuster of Chinese-language films. Times, well aware of the eight major Hollywood film companies, but did not often show up everywhere.
But this time for "Monster Hunt", he really went out of his way, not only smashed all his net worth, but also ran around to promote it. But despite the pressure, his first reaction to a problem has nothing to do with money. According to him, the original budget for the film was within 100 million yuan, but soon found that 100 million yuan was not enough, so he continued to spend money. Then, because of Ke Zhendong's change of roles, more than 70 million yuan was invested in the second shooting, with a total cost of 350 million yuan. It is said that this money has already covered Jiang Zhiqiang's entire net worth, but he did not feel distressed, "Let me choose again, I will still do it." And when he decided to shoot for the second time, his mood was actually very calm: "The money doesn't count, so I still work hard. At that time, I had a feeling that I would give it up." His remarks were very moving, "We feel that among many directors in China, there is really a lack of people who are willing to spend some precious time in their lives to do one thing."
At this point, it is necessary to say that Boss Xiajiang According to the information of Baidu "Jiang Zhiqiang": Jiang Zhiqiang and his Anle company have always been mysterious, so that institutions who want to invest have no way to investigate. In the film circle, Jiang Zhiqiang is known for his prudence and frugality. It is said that he is the most expensive in the circle. He has only taken economy class on business trips for decades, and all the money saved is invested in the unprofitable art theater, the Broadway Film Center. All this comes from his infinite love for movies. How much love does he really love? Jiang Zhiqiang's mother once asked him when he was filming, and his answer was: "I won't shoot if I lose all my money." He believes that making money is not important, but the important thing is: "When you see the audience applauding, you are already very happy in life. ."
If such a good filmmaker with feelings falls into the situation of "no money to make movies", then I really have nothing to say!
Amway reason 3: good conscience and special effects, crazy face "fifty cents special effects team"!
Speaking of which, I have to mention director Xu Chengyi. Xu Chengyi, as his name suggests, "will give everyone sincere works", although he was called "the father of Shrek" in the previous promotional posters, but in fact he is only one of the co-directors of "Shrek 3", at most A "Shrek stepfather". Even so, after all, he was born in DreamWorks. After watching the movie, you will find that the design of the monsters in the movie is almost the same as that in DreamWorks' classic "How to Train Your Dragon", especially the dancing monsters at the beginning. Are you sure it's not a group of dragons flying, and the huge monster that chased after the demon queen is really the brother of the dragon in "How to Train Your Dragon 2". Although it looks ugly, I get used to this setting after watching it for a long time, it is really cute.
As for the special effects of the movie, to be honest, after watching a lot of special effects in movies and TV dramas such as "Flower Thousand Bone", I thought that the special effects here would also cheat, or use the 3D slogan to cheat money, but I was really pleasantly surprised. , The whole movie is very smooth, especially the coexistence of real people and animations. Basically, I can't see any traces of synthesis. The real characters and scenes are very well integrated with the virtual monsters, and even the action scenes are very smooth. Of course, there will be no such low-level mistakes as lip-synching. But don't think that the special effects of this film are done by the Hollywood team. According to the director himself, the special effects team is all Chinese. This should be for those who are rich in "50 cents special effects" and claim that "the level of domestic special effects is so high". Face it mercilessly.
Reason 4: The story is full of laughter and tears, and the actors work hard too!
Before watching it, a friend told me that if you like the tone of "Crazy Primitives", then you will like "Monster Hunt", and found that it is true, although the tone of the whole drama is more family-friendly, the plot is inevitably relatively young (but still It is much more complicated than the plot of "The Return of the Great Sage") - the half-baked demon hunter met Jing Boran, who was pregnant with a demon fetus by chance. After selling it, the two finally fell in love with the cute little demon. After selling it to Tang Wei, they regretted it and tried their best to save the little demon king. Although it is simple, there are still a lot of tears and laughter in it. Among them, there are songs and dances that are common in Hollywood and Bollywood animation movies. The monsters dance together. Of course, some people said that this is actually a wildlife protection propaganda film, and it is quite harmonious to replace the monsters in it with animals.
Now that the story is over, let's talk about the actors. The protagonist Jing Boran in the movie is really the shy and vomited feeling of a pregnant woman. I feel that this young man should have a wider range of acting in the future. As for Bai Lily, it feels normal. How different those chick movies are, but they are also quite in tune with the whole movie. In addition, Wu Junru, Zeng Zhiwei, and Yao Chen, who has a taste of Northeast big ballast, also performed well, but the one that caught my eye was "Little Sun" Zhong Hanliang. Compared with the previous domineering CEO style, this time the characters are really evil. Charming and crazy, it's a bit similar to the feeling of Wu Xiubo's participation in "Four Famous Catchers", no wonder those little girls screamed at his appearance. In addition, Tang Wei, the proprietress of the "Monster Recycling Station" who is crazy about playing mahjong is also really cute. Compared with the goddess in "Late Autumn", this carefree female nerve is more lovable.
Reason 5: Huba Huba Huba Huba, you must see the lovely Huba!
I really love this stubborn little goblin so much! I would love to keep one by my side! ! ! Like a white radish, waving four arms, crying, laughing and acting cute, it is really too endearing.
I guess it won't take long for this little demon king to sell better than Xiyangyang in China.
