The imagination of "Star Agent" is wonderful.
On weekends, watching a good movie is like a spiritual journey. "China Film Report" and the China Film Critics Association jointly create a "Weekly Review" section to take you to taste the new films that are hot this week.
This week, 8 new films were released, including sci-fi action movies; Crime action movies; Animated film; Feature film; Romantic films,; In this issue of Weekly Review, we invite experts to analyze the top three films on the first day and give you the most authoritative professional cool reviews.
Star Agent: A City of Thousand Stars: A magnificent space game
On the first day, 30.14% films were arranged.
Tan Zheng: Deputy Director of Film Theory Research Department of China Federation of Literary and Art Circles Film Art Center.
Star Agent: The City of a Thousand Stars can score 72 points. This is another sci-fi work presented to the audience by luc besson since then. Compared with his previous works, he provides the audience with a more complex and grand sci-fi universe, that is, he creates an existence with different time and space in the same space. Through different devices, you can see the existence of different time and space, and this kind of imagination is wonderful.
Another feature of this film is that its love line may be more than ordinary science fiction films. This kind of composition is heavier, which makes the narrative of the whole story more compact. Of course, the weakness of this film is also its narrative aspect, and its intensity is relatively weak. When you see the middle, you basically know who this anti-No.1 is and what is going on.
Of course, for the audience in China, the actors in the film may be unfamiliar, except for the international singer Rihanna who plays an alien who can transform, and there is Wu Yifan in China. Wu Yifan plays a key supporting role in it, which plays a key role in narrative, but there are almost no lines in the first half of the film, which may be embarrassing.
Auto Thief: It is the first musical film about speeding crimes.
On the first day, 25.36% films were arranged.
Suo Yabin: Professor of Communication University of China, Director of China Film Criticism Society;
As for the movie Auto Thief, I scored 80 points. It is a highly formal and stylized work. The main plot of the film is about a talented young driver who is forced to serve a criminal gang. When he meets the girl he loves, he is eager to get rid of the past completely and start a free life again.
The story itself is very simple, even full of routines, but under the interpretation of the director’s musical spirit, it radiates a unique charm. We know that in addition to musical musicals, the use of musical elements in movies generally appears as a background to set off the plot and understand emotions, but in this film, musical elements have entered most of the plots, and they are ubiquitous, almost covering the sound track of the whole movie. Moreover, music has a wonderful relationship with the plot, scene and action of the whole film, especially the action scenes of car chase, gun fight and so on, which are combined with music to produce a sense of rhythm and rhythm.
Therefore, some viewers say that this film not only tells a complete story, but also looks like a super MV composed of songs one after another. Therefore, some critics in the United States say that this film was shot in a new style.
Racing Story 3: Extreme Challenge Lightning McQueen’s "Midlife Crisis"
The first day of film arrangement was 16.12%
Lin Jinxi: Member of China Film Criticism Society and editor of Contemporary Film magazine.
I scored 80 points for this film, which basically reflected the production level of Pixar Industry in terms of drama and visual effects. Compared with the previous two films, it has two points of view. The first is the protagonist McQueen, who was hit hard after experiencing the peak of his life, and he also drowned. He also wanted to live up to expectations, be able to rekindle his fighting spirit and work hard, but he had to face the inherent disadvantages. He was confused and struggled.
The second point of view is its ending. When we thought about what kind of posture McQueen would win in the risk, he found another way. He joined forces with (Cool Sister) and completed the race together. He fulfilled himself and also fulfilled (Cool Sister). This ending has a certain attraction, and it also paves the way for the replacement of the protagonist in the fourth part.
It can be regarded as a typical family movie, and the ending of the story also tells the audience that life is not just a choice of retirement, but a diversified choice, so every audience will have their own different feelings when they enter the cinema.
The key word of this weekend’s movie market is: the foreign film group is coming. One month after dominating the box office, three foreign films, Star Agent, Auto Theft God and Racing Story 3, came in strongly, occupying the top three in the film list. Next week, there will be war history films, fantasy romance films and other types of films released, and the summer file will also be successfully concluded.
