i thought the movie that lost the most money this year was the summer release "decryption."

until this movie was released half a month ago, chen sicheng became the younger brother.

cost, online transmission investment is 200 million;

propaganda, zhang yimou, hu ge, and wong kar-wai have all supported it;

in terms of the lineup, there is not only a top director team, but also a talented actor like an zhijie as a supporting cast.

but in the end, the attack was terrible.

since the film was released on september 20, it cannot be said that the sound volume is weak, it can only be said that there is no splash.

the box office on the first day was 700,000, and it barely exceeded 1.4 million in the first week of release.

perhaps it was predicted that the box office would be a big hit, or maybe it was because the rewards could not be delivered to the sponsors at the moment. this film was quietly launched on the video platform a few days ago, and at the box office it was basically like removing the last ventilator.

how did such a bizarre thing happen?

when the audience sees the male protagonist of the film and the financial backers behind it, all their doubts are answered.

the film is called "the treasure at the gate" and is directed by the famous martial arts director xu haofeng.

attentive viewers may notice the producer of the first scene of the film: auxiliary films.

an ominous premonition came instantly.

yes, this film company lives up to its name and was founded to assist.

this "zuo" is the beloved son of xiang huaqiang, mr. xiang zuo.

the girl who has an ambiguous relationship with xiang zuo in the film is played by his wife guo biting.

it is reported on the internet that the 200 million investment was naturally paid by his father to huaqiang.

the purpose of this film is also very obvious. the popular prince is the foundation, and the foundation cannot be moved.

therefore, the audience saw various disaster-like embarrassing performances in the film.

xiang zuo's face seemed unable to express any other expression besides ferociousness.

during the wu xing meeting, he frowned;

he had a serious look on his face when he had an affair with a girl on the dance floor;

the senior died tragically on the street, but when it came time to get emotional, he still glared angrily and opened his nostrils.

don’t blame the audience for not watching, don’t blame the director for not adding more scenes.

at the end of the film, there is an action scene in which xiang zuo fights against a hundred people, and his motivation for "helping" is very obvious.

the protagonists, like wong fei-hung, bruce lee, fearless, and ip man, bravely brave the tower of death alone, and are greeted by various schools, weapons, and races in turn.

finally, under the aura of the protagonist, he defeated the boss an zhijie.

from xiang zuo, you can deeply understand one sentence: there is an upper limit to acting skills.

in order to circumvent xiang zuo's shortcomings in mandarin, the creative team hired mandarin dubbing.

but even so, the literary drama is still a disaster.

it may be that xiang zuo's sharp facial edges caused the visual out of focus. every time he spoke his lines, there was a strong sense of unreality.

for example, in the climax of the film, the male host uses eight swords to defeat many people.

because he didn't know how to use weapons, he was bullied by everyone.

originally a very passionate lone warrior, he said three words "i can't" to zoren, making the scene instantly weird and funny.

the previous character arc collapsed in a second.

so when the line "sir, everyone let you go" appeared in the film, the whole audience laughed.

this kind of rigid performance was experienced in "my boxing boyfriend" five years ago.

the director of the film, johnnie to, worked hard for the film and trained xiang zuo with all his strength.

but the finished film is still the scene of a car accident.

some people say that xiang zuo is not suitable for acting in film and television dramas, but this conclusion is too premature.

in uncle chai's opinion, at least at this stage, he is not suitable to be the protagonist, and the energy value of his performance is not high enough.

on the contrary, the acting skills of several supporting actors are particularly outstanding in such a movie that "supports the protagonist".

the first person to talk about is of course an zhijie.

the senior brother he plays in the film has both the wisdom to run the sect and the magnanimity to survive in troubled times.

the position of successor was originally his.

but because he secretly recruited apprentices and taught martial arts to foreigners, he became an abandoned disciple.

an zhijie's performance of this troubled kung fu master who is both martial on the surface and thoughtful on the inside is captivating.

the fighting scenes are vigorous and the literary plays are exquisite.

he said to xiang zuo, i have big things to do and no one can be killed.

it can be seen that the pattern of this character does not just stop at martial arts.

whether he wants to establish a sect or join the foreigners, the director has given this character a lot of room for speculation and interpretation.

another one to praise is the third female lead, tang yishi.

this name should be unfamiliar to everyone, but after watching this film, you will remember this face deeply.

this "common girl" who only appears in the middle of the film has a huge secret hidden in her body.

tang yishi's face is upright and majestic, with strong plasticity.

it wasn't until the last moment that the audience figured out the deep connection between the characters from her.

the bathhouse uses a fighting scene of one enemy against many, moving around and around, and you can see that you have the skills to get close to it;

the verbal battle with an zhijie and hidden tact brought the charm of the character to the extreme.

some netizens predict that tang yishi can become the number one female star in domestic entertainment.

no one expected that the biggest surprise of the whole film would be the guest appearances of nishina gojo and mao tao.

the two of them don't have many scenes, but they have distinct attributes and they just come out to be funny.

in particular, nishina is fighting xiang zuo with a long sword. one is tall and the other is short, one is long and the other is short. the serious style of painting suddenly changes to humor.

until peoplesoft's "negotiation failed" scene, the comedy effect of this supporting role overflowed the screen.

with the gold medals and green leaves as foils, even if xiang zuo plays like this, the reputation of "the treasure in front of the door" is really not a bad movie in the strict sense.

even on douban, many people gave it high scores of four and five stars.

why?

frankly speaking, if you can accept the premise of "assistant", the whole movie is quite interesting to watch.

use the internetblackin other words, this area restores the ecology of the tianjin martial arts school at the beginning of the last century.

the so-called martial arts is not tsui hark's kind of martial arts movies with flashes of swords and shadows, flying in the sky and escaping from the ground.

therefore, the action scenes in the film are strange at first glance.

but when you add a reality filter and think about how people fight in real life, and then watch the action scenes, you will become addicted in a second.

for example, this cold shot scene looks funny, but when you think about it carefully, it conforms to the rules of physics.

the protagonists fight in close quarters, and the scene is not a big one, but it also follows the realistic logic of speed and speed.

all of director xu haofeng's movies, scripts, and novels have real deeds to test.

understanding this level, the incredible plots in the movie will be solved.

for example, the scene where guo biting rides a bicycle and rescues xiang zuo from thousands of troops.

someone asked, since the bicycle is not an armored vehicle, why didn't xiang zuo be pulled off directly?

because firstly, guo biting is a foreign merchant post office, and secondly, wu xing cannot do anything to women.

the word "rules" is also the tacit standard of martial arts.

for example, if the people fighting in the street are gangsters, martial arts will only take place at the agreed time and place, and they will also have to issue a gauntlet in advance;

on the surface, force was used to fight off the gangsters who were dominating the market, but in reality, the gangsters were superior in force. the two sides secretly negotiated and reached a superficial peace, so the vegetable merchants would sell vegetables regularly and pay protection fees;

martial arts practitioners are not allowed to recruit disciples privately, let alone establish their own sects, so an zhijie will definitely be expelled from the sect;

no matter how big the dispute is or how deep the conflict is, after the martial arts intervenes, they will choose another time and another place to fight behind closed doors, leaving only the result, and no one knows the process.

kung fu is not a weapon fight. everyone competes with fists and kicks. if you use cold guns and concealed weapons, you will be looked down upon;

when it comes to weapons, it’s all about finishing. in order not to hurt anyone, weapons also need to be protected in advance.

martial arts in history, in the words of the film -

"martial arts is the wedge between the beam and the doorpost."

xu haofeng's martial arts world shows the world in this piece of wood.

the initial concept of "treasure land in front of the door" also comes from a jianghu rule: if there is any injustice within one hundred meters in front of the door, the martial arts industry will take care of it.

although the whole story is dull, the film is still very interesting after one weird thing after another is interpreted into various ways.

the tragedy of "the treasure at the gate" was not only a huge commercial failure.

its tragedy also carries a layer of "injustice". it is obviously not a bad movie, but it turned away a large number of viewers because of its obvious shortcomings.

no one else is to blame.

when xu haofeng took over xiang huaqiang's investment, he anticipated the current outcome.

it is not clear whether xu haofeng is trying to kill someone, but xiang zuo's wish to play the leading role in a movie is becoming increasingly difficult to realize.
