tearjerker director

Chapter 996 In life, sorrow is not long, and joy is not long

Movies like "East and West" never worry about lack of topicality.

Because, this movie is born with high attention and high controversy.

The reason for the high attention is that the lineup of this movie is extremely luxurious, and there is Li Yi, a popular director, so the promotion of this movie is top-notch, and because of this movie, Chen Weijie and others from Hong Kong Island Superstars in it can be said to subvert their image performances, which can naturally attract the attention of countless movie fans.

But it is equally controversial.

The main reason is that this movie is too deviant, or too weird.

There are many people who like it, and there are also many people who don't like it.

"I don't understand. It's still a great director who has won a grand slam. Why did Director Dog make such a bad film with no gold content this time? Except for a few places in it, I can't watch it at all, and I can't laugh."

"To be honest, I only want to give this movie one star, but with this incomparable and unrepeatable super cast, I will add another one.

Crudely made, pieced together, inexplicable. "

"Although it is enough for a comedy to make everyone laugh, it is still very disappointing because it is far from what we expected!"

"The actors in the film can be said to be big names in the Chinese film industry if you pick them out. I like the masterpieces of every big shot, but I really see mixed feelings in this film's forcedly funny appearance. The performances of most of the actors in the whole film are exaggerated and stiff, and to be honest, I don’t understand this nonsensical narrative trend at all, and I feel like I’m just pretending to be crazy together.”

Wait, wait, etc. Bad reviews are not rare.

Regarding this, neither Li Yi nor Chen Weijie, the leading actors, paid much attention to it.

Because, this is so normal.

"East and West" is originally an absurd comedy. This type is not the kind that can be liked by everyone, and there are indeed many logical bugs in the movie, so this is definitely not an absurd comedy. A perfect movie.

But at the same time, in fact, more audiences do not have such high requirements for the movie itself.

It's a comedy movie, just watch it for fun.

In this regard, it is a little surprising that film critics who usually do not want to see this kind of film critics who only want to entertain the audience are actually divided into two factions.

One school is also full of disappointments and negative emotions: "This movie was made very well, Director Dog, don't make it again in the future!"

But the other school thinks: "This movie is actually far from being as simple as it seems. It is not just a pure comedy. Movies must pay more attention to details, and every sentence can even be interpreted by people to analyze different things and tastes in depth!"

But no matter what, after the film was officially released on Double Eleven, the box office was the best.

Of course, this is not particularly beyond everyone's expectations. With such a big cast, it is still a movie directed by a dog like Li Yi, and the box office will definitely not be bad.

However, the ratings on the popular film review website seem a bit low.

It dropped 0.2 points on the first day of release, which was not a particularly high score, but dropped to 8.3 points.

The point is, there have been a lot of bad reviews.

In fact, comedy movies can have such a score, which is really not bad, especially if it is a nonsensical comedy, or this kind of absurd comedy, this score is indeed not low.

On Double Eleven, the daily box office of "East and West" exceeded 1.36 million, with a reported revenue of [-] million.

For a comedy film, this box office is amazing. In fact, although there have been many negative reviews, the topic of this film is very hot.

Especially those passages and lines in the film were discussed by countless fans and netizens.

"Stupid! Have you ever seen a [-]-year-old man and so many women like him? That's no happier than a fairy! Why do you want to be a fairy? Shit!"

This line of the emperor's line unexpectedly made many netizens like it very much.

Of course, one must mention Ouyang Feng's sausage mouth.

The poster of Ouyang Feng's Sausage Mouth played by Chen Weijie was directly made into a meme by many fans, and it quickly became popular on the Internet.

The matching words are: "Xiaoer, get two sausages to eat!"

And "It's not a boot, it's the world's greatest hidden weapon!"

"Come on, hero!"

"He cried!"

Wait, wait, the stalks in "East and West" quickly became popular among netizens.

At the same time, Li Yi, Chen Weijie and others also appeared on the program "Things About Movies".

During the show, Li Yi was inevitably asked: "Why do you want to make a movie like "East and West" that is completely different from your previous style?"

Li Yi couldn't help laughing at that moment.

"Actually, I refused at the beginning, but in the end it was hard to turn down the kindness. Especially Brother Jie and Brother Cheng Hu, they all expressed their need. They can all play the role, so I thought, this is probably an extremely rare The opportunity to bring together a group of veteran superstars like them to act in a play.

As for why you made a film of this style?In fact, it is also a bit of a bad taste, why are the big stars what everyone thinks they are?Why can't it be otherwise?

Just like goddesses can fart and need to eat and drink, why can't big stars do this?
To paraphrase a line from a movie: Whoever told you that Room No. [-] of Tianzi must be next to Room No. between?
There is no absolute thing in the world. Sometimes many of us feel like we are suffering from obsessive-compulsive disorder of meaning. When we read, watch movies or do anything, we will pursue its meaning. If the essence of life is to live, then try our best to I live a better life, so I sit in front of the screen and laugh like a fool like a fool in front of a funny movie that may have no meaning. It's not bad, but it's a pity that I never show off in front of people.Who can stop who is happy in what way, anyway, life is heavy enough.

Why not be happier?It's just that I want to make up for a little optimism after cheating so many audiences' tears, so the idea I want to express in this movie is actually very simple.

Maybe a lot of things are unbelievably simple.Fisting can draw a beggar gang leader; those who want to die will not die, and the whole body will be covered with bruises; after decades of painstaking cultivation, they will be crushed to death by a boot as soon as they leave the customs, which is shameful; I haven't seen other women; the senior brother has empathized, it doesn't matter, there is also a cousin; it doesn't matter if a sincere person is of the same sex, just three words I love you, and you can become a fairy.This person closed and opened his eyes, one day passed, his eyes were closed, his whole life passed, the saddest thing in life... what is it?If you don't know how to tease and be frivolous, the life that is bound left and right will be even more tragic.If something is smashed, don’t panic, just say: In life, sorrows don’t last long, and joys don’t last long. What’s more, you don’t know when a god will come down to save you. "
