The King of Huayu Science Fiction

Whispering voices resounded throughout the auditorium.

Filmmakers were commotioning, and the critics' section was whispering to each other.

"Is there no cut in between?"

"I have no impression..."

"So it's a long shot that's been going on for 10 minutes from the beginning of the movie? And it's still going on?"

Zhang Mo also mumbled to himself in disbelief, as if he was asking his father beside him: "Didn't you edit it before?"

Lao Mouzi shook his head slowly: "No."

As a director with a background in photography, he is extremely sensitive to the lens, so he can be sure that there has been no editing or switching of any lens from the beginning of the movie to the present.

This long shot, which is not over yet, and I don't know how long it will last, made him extremely amazed.

Not only because of the length of this shot - the last time I saw such a long shot in a theater was "Gravity", it also lasted for a full 13 minutes from the beginning of the film, becoming a textbook-style storyboard, and This long shot of "[-]" tends to exceed its duration.

But the long shot of "Gravity" is essentially a special effects shot, so it can only be said that the director's storyboard script is too well designed.

However, in this long-shot switching scene, the number of characters and environments entering the country is not only large in number, but also has a high information density and a large span. The shots have not been switched with the scene changes.

This kind of long shot can't be done by designing a sub-shot script. The shooting process is more difficult and has more problems.

The most important thing is that this 10-minute long shot not only explained the identity of the protagonist, but also explained the environment and daily life of the entire army stationed, allowing the audience to see the bunker fortifications, daily training, underground tunnels, trenches, and the sense of substitution is so real.

It creates an absolute sense of immersion, allowing you to deeply experience the immersive experience as if you are the third soldier behind the two protagonists.

Long shots are not just for showing off skills, but also have a huge bonus to the immersion of the audience in the narrative and the realism of the background and environment!
This is definitely a work of art!
Not even the breathing effect of the lens.

Generally speaking, when the lens changes focus, the focal length will also change slightly, even if only part of the lens group moves, but this displacement will affect the position of other lenses and lens groups, even if it is only a slight change, it will also cause Slight zoom effect.

It is reflected in the screen that when the focus is switched, the size of the image in the screen will change, and this phenomenon will appear both in-focus and out-of-focus.

But there was no "breathing effect" in this long shot, at least he didn't notice it.

Although he didn't know how he did it, Zhang Yimou's brain was already filled with excitement and doubts at this time, because the "breathing effect" has always been something that lens masters like him hate.

too exaggerated!

While Lao Mouzi was amazed at the long shot of the movie that was still going on, there was commotion in the area of ​​media reporters.

The editor-in-chief of Sina Entertainment, Chu Tian, ​​was puzzled and asked the colleagues around him: "Is it really a long shot? No editing?"

Although Chu Tian has participated in many film screenings or premieres, he is not a film practitioner after all, so he is still not sure.

But he also knew that if it was a real long shot, it would be something amazing.

The Beijing News reporter on the side looked a little unbelievable, looked down at the phone, shook his head slowly and said, "Ten six minutes..."

A long shot lasting 6 [-] minutes... This is not the kind of low-budget art film.

From the beginning of the movie to the present, the scheduling and span of the scene is no less than that of industrial war blockbusters, from garrison camps to fortifications, to underground tunnels, to potholes and battlefields full of dead bodies.

Even if they are reporters, they understand the significance of this long shot.

And this incredible feeling is gradually swallowed up by the irresistible sense of immersion as the viewing process continues, and gradually becomes numb.

Because this "[-]" is obviously not the amazing long shot of "Gravity" they thought.

But the whole movie is one long shot!

The whole movie!

A war movie made of one shot!

At this moment, the questions that Chu Tian and the other reporters had been brewing in their minds at the media meeting after the movie screening were thrown out of the blue.

Because they have realized that the first part of "[-]" will definitely leave a strong mark in the history of war movies. Tomorrow, no, tonight's report on "[-]" will be covered by this history Unseen shooting techniques swiped the screen.

……

The screening of "[-]" itself has received widespread attention. After all, this is Chen Jingxing's screening, and it is also his first non-sci-fi film and his first war film.

There are also factors such as the recent verbal battle with Jingying, and the comparison with "King Kong River".

Therefore, on various forums and social platforms, such as "Has anyone watched the show and told me how the movie is?", "How was the filming of "[-]"? Is it a big brain hole?", "And "Li Yannian" Is it similar?" question.

Naturally, some film critics and movie fans who finished watching the movie immediately posted their feedback on the Internet.

The first wave of feedback on Weibo, Douban, and Zhihu came out one after another, and all the major media who were invited to watch the screening of the movie rushed out short drafts of "[-]".

[Just got off the plane... Uh, I just got home from the theater, let me tell you how I feel.

I was originally very curious about how Chen Jingxing would interpret a film dedicated to war, because he is known to be a very creative and imaginative director, and I especially wanted to see his talent put into a war themed Korean War What kind of surprises will the movie bring us...or disappointment.

The result is beyond my expectation!
I thought that Director Chen was playing tricks on the narrative structure, and even guessed that he would incorporate some high-concept science fiction (of course, this is unlikely).

Of course, I also thought about Chen Jingxing completing a gift film in a regular manner. After all, this subject matter is really not easy to use his advantages.

But never expected that Chen Jingxing could still play tricks that no one could have expected!
One mirror to the end!Of course, I have seen many people say that it was a fake one-shot to the end, or that there were several cuts, but no matter what, the movie-watching experience brought by this so-called fake one-shot to the end is simply amazing!
I can't describe it in detail in words. Imagine playing games in a movie theater, and the IMAX big screen is your display.

It's a video parody of a video game.

If you don't go to the theater to watch this movie, it's just a waste of money, and if you don't buy IMAX tickets, it's a waste of money!

The understatement of the narrative, even the soundtrack is light, without a sense of grandeur, and completely integrated into the scene.There is no needle-to-grain shootout, and there is no highly skilled fight scene.

But it is the strong sense of immersion, reality, fear, and grief that directly overwhelms you. It is definitely a pity that you do not come to experience this kind of movie-watching experience in your life.

I have already bought tickets for the public screening, those who are still hesitating, don't hesitate, this film belongs to the cinema. 】

[When everyone thinks that Chen Jingxing said in his acceptance speech at the Golden Rooster Awards Gala, "I am not willing to wait for the years to pass, and I hope to make more movies before the years pass, and at the same time get more awards... I sincerely hope that I will come again next time." Sometimes the judges will not directly award me a lifetime achievement award." This sentence is a statement with ridicule and humor.

Chen Jingxing slapped his face with practical actions.

The best director of the next Golden Rooster Awards is not Chen Jingxing, I turned my head upside down!

I won't spoil the extra, the plot of this movie is very simple, but the viewing experience will definitely shock you!
To sum it up with what Director Chen once said: you just need to feel it! 】

【Definitely!Chen Jingxing actually made "Battlefield One" into a movie.

One shot to the end, or a pseudo-one shot to the end, I only identified three or five hidden editing shots, and then completely forgot about them, completely immersed in the story.

The movie of more than two hours is not procrastinated or dull, except for a few beautiful and soothing moments, the tension is almost from the beginning to the end.

In the dark night, the occasional flash bomb illuminates the ruins. The light and shadow are too shocking, cruel and beautiful, and can only be experienced on the big screen.

Chen Jingxing made a war movie into a work of art! 】

[...It's so immersive. After all, Yijing is definitely not a gimmick, or can be considered a gimmick, but it is perfectly integrated with the narrative of the movie, allowing you to possess the characters like a ghost, and share with them Perspective, advance and retreat with them.

What they see is what you see, what they hear is what you hear, what they meet is what you meet.

In the beginning, you are in two places.

More than half of you are the little brother who is anxious to save his brother.

A small half of you is that calm and experienced scout.

But because they walked the same way, you will be with them all the way, through crowded trenches, on muddy roads, over corpses crawling with flies and maggots, after seeing beautiful rhododendrons and gurgling water, The scorched black corpse was used as a road sign...

You are the same as them, you will be covered in mud after rolling and climbing for a short distance, you will be cut and bleeding profusely if you accidentally fall into the trench, and your hand will be inserted into the back of the rotting corpse next to you if you are bumped by your comrades.

It was him and you who knelt down beside the dead body of his comrade-in-arms and wept.

You can only be directed and photographed throughout the whole process, firmly pressed into the screen, can only be attached to the protagonist, and cannot be separated.

"Li Yannian" tells you why we can win and how to win, while "[-]" tells you how cruel the war is and how miserable the people ravaged by the war are, so it tells you again why we must win this war ! 】

[Zhang Ruoyun received the lunch box so suddenly...

It was too shocking!
Nima, I always thought that the protagonist saved an enemy pilot because of a soft heart, and then was stabbed a few times, and then lost his breath in the arms of his comrades in pain and hopelessness.

The movie is only half over!
I was just stupid!

Unlike the death and sacrifice in other movies that are so tragic, this is the first time I have seen such a neat way of death, which is so cruel that it makes people tremble.

After the trembling, there is a great sadness. This movie is so poetic and cruel. 】

[I can only use three words to describe "[-]", horror, cruelty and truth.

And great stamina!
This kind of immersion is simply unprecedented. It gives me the feeling of playing No.1 action game. On the big screen, you follow the two protagonists through the bushes and fields withered by bullets, and quickly pass through them together. The broken walls and ruins shrouded in artillery fire, and the corpses they saw with their own eyes were all over the field and blood flowed into rivers.

The story is quite simple to be honest, it is a road movie among war movies, but the information density is extremely high.

The poetic shots with great battle damage aesthetics superimposed layers of rich emotions on this minimalist story, excitement and anxiety, tension and relaxation, determination and despair, sadness and awareness.

Coupled with the unusually thick string soundtrack, it is too realistic and substituting]
