I'm not just an action star

"Reaper 2" hits theaters all over the world, and the comments it arouses are also overwhelming.

Most importantly, this film is too bloody!

Did you say no violence?But blood is so violent.

Are you saying it’s not exciting without fighting moves?

But die violently, die wonderfully.

Especially the highway chain accident at the beginning, it can be said to be a classic.

Movie reviews:

""Reaper 2" can be said to surpass the first one. The opening is amazing and stimulates the psychology of the audience.

This series of car accidents on the highway made my heart jump out of my chest, as if it happened right next to me.

So much so that it makes people wonder whether the car accident in life is the event of death?

In the second part, the method of death is more tragic and bloody than the first part.It is not an exaggeration to call this movie a blood blockbuster.

The whole film has a tighter rhythm than the previous one.The tricks are also more refurbished, taking advantage of the psychological weakness of the audience.

When the first person dies, the audience is guided to guess, but the audience is always unable to guess.

When the second person dies, the audience is affected by the first death, thinking that the second is the same, and the second person's death does not have so many twists.

When the third person died, he thought it was a hook, but it turned out that the elevator was stuck.

......"

Unfortunately, there are not many positive reviews, more negative reviews.

"The rhythm of the second part is too messy, and there is no degree of slack.

In the first part, because of looking for clues, looking for confrontations, and solutions to the god of death, the film has decryption elements, which is also the first part that attracts the audience.

Because of the example of the first film, the characters in the second film want to avoid death according to the example in the first film, which speeds up the pace and loses the most important deciphering element.

The audience knows the rules of the god of death, and the characters are only solved according to the method of the first part. The only thing to watch is the way of death.

In addition, Eugene could not succeed in shooting himself. This design is too far-fetched.And if Eugene couldn't commit suicide, then Kimberly couldn't commit suicide either..."

""Reaper 2" has a bad review, and I can only give it one star.

The first film that can capture the hearts of the audience is the shadow of death, and even paying homage to the dead makes the whole film shrouded in an atmosphere of sadness and terror.And not just how to die and how to die.

By showing the feelings of the relatives of the deceased, it makes people feel that the living are the most painful.

In the first film, the protagonist Alex was suspected by the police, hated by his friends and parents, misunderstood by the surviving teacher and other conflicts, which made the audience feel more empathetic.

What's in the second part?

There is no grief for the dead, only death.There is no psychological portrayal, and the plot is superficial, as if the whole film is about a hundred fancy ways to die.

Kimberly, the protagonist of the second part, does not carry too much emotion and burden from other people.It makes the blood plasma of the whole film super thick, but loses its thickness.

......"

Netizens have their likes and dislikes.

""Reaper 2" is great, it turns out that the dead people in the second part are all because of the involvement of the first part, the people who deserve to die but not die.

It can be said that the list of the gods of death in the second part was brought together because of the first part.

So, is it possible that because a few people in the second part did not die, their influence will generate a third list of gods of death? "

"From "Reaper 2", it can be seen that because of the death of the people in the first part, those who deserve to die will be chased and killed by the god of death.

At the end of the film, it can be seen that because of the influence of the people on the death list, the surviving people had accidents, but they survived by luck, and they will also be chased and killed by the god of death.

The farmer's son Brian would not have been almost killed by a news vehicle if it hadn't been for the people on the death list who entered the farm in a car accident.And Brian was rescued by Luo Duan, and finally failed to escape the pursuit of death at the end of the film. "

"A lot of people only notice the superficial phenomena, but they don't realize that the details can really be hidden.

Kimberly went to see the teeth of the second deceased, maybe the second deceased would not die.Not to mention that the second dead man would have chased the pigeons even if Kimberly hadn't yelled.As the film continues to develop, such hints become more and more apparent.

Clare, the survivor of the first movie, if it wasn't for Kimberly looking for her, she wouldn't be out of the hospital, and she wouldn't have died.

Explain what?It means that even if you hide, the god of death will let the people in the second list of gods of death find you out, implicate you, and erase you.

For example, if Kimberly hadn't mistakenly believed that the pregnant woman was on the death list, several people would not have driven to find the pregnant woman because of this, causing them to almost collide with each other on the road.

It was also because of Kimberly's misjudgment that the death of the farmer's son Brian was implicated.

......"

"Reaper 2" had a good box office performance in its first week of release, but it began to show a decline in the second week.This made Huang Yiyu and Lion Pictures very worried.

In the end, the total global box office of "Reaper 2" was only US$[-] million, which was less than the first film.

Wu Long knows that the production cost of the original "Reaper 2" is 200 million dollars more than the first one, but the total global box office is only more than 9000 million dollars, which is less than the 1000 million to [-] million dollars of the first film. .

Now, relying on his fame as a screenwriter, this version of "Reaper 2" barely earned [-] million yuan, which is not a shame.

"Reaper 2" has just been released, and the American version of "The Grudge" by Weiner Films is also released.

Three weeks after the US version of "The Grudge" was released, "Deadly Doll" filmed by Wen Zhiren and Warner himself was released.

Because Blair Witch gave them a bad name, they didn't dare to make a big splash about Deadly Dolls.

Publicity, avoid promoting their names.

And other film companies, including Lion Pictures and Weiner Pictures, are also paying attention to this "Deadly Doll".After all, Wen Zhiren and Werner are people who have created miracles.What everyone cares about now is how well these two people filmed the movie apart from their marketing geniuses.

Wen Zhiren and Werner themselves were not too sure about the films they made.

The box office on the day of the premiere was mediocre.In the next few days, the box office did not see any increase.In the following days, the box office began to slowly decline.

In the end, "Deadly Doll" was forced to withdraw after less than three months of release.The American version of "The Grudge", which was released three weeks earlier than "Deadly Doll", has not yet been released at this time, and is still barely supporting the screening.

This is a serious blow to Wen Zhiren and Werner!

They keep looking at the opinions of film critics and fans, trying to find the reason for their failure.

"The box office hit of "Deadly Doll" is related to the bad reputation of Wen Zhiren and Werner. Many fans found out that these two people who deceived them made the film, so they decided not to watch it.

Maybe it's because "Blair Witch" was too rough. When they made "Deadly Doll", in order to prove that they can make a movie that is not rough, they made "Deadly Doll" too delicate.

Take a look at the "Death Coming" series with a box office of over [-] million, which can be called a model of horror films, and it is not as exquisite as "Deadly Doll".

It seems that Wen Zhiren and Werner don't really understand horror films. They are too refined like works of art, which weakens the characteristics of horror.

The two of them are only suitable for marketing. "

"Horror movies are not fantasy films, nor are they science fiction films. The reason for the failure of "Deadly Doll" is that Wen Zhiren and Werner made "Deadly Doll" into a fantasy film or a science fiction film.

CG special effects are used too much, which weakens the sense of horror. "

"The process of the horror scene appearing is too slow, there is no sense of fear of being suddenly frightened. Could it be that they want to learn "Midnight Ring"? However, Wen Zhiren and Werner did not grasp the essence of "Midnight Ring".

"Midnight Ring" pays attention to the progressive and gradual rendering of layers.Pay attention to the fineness and the picture of the model lake.

network

Thus, psychologically, the horror is pushed to the apex.

Horror comes from personal imagination. "Deadly Doll" has too many details and too strong texture, but it makes the audience lack of imagination.

The horror scenes appear too slowly, which makes the audience develop a defensive mentality, resulting in a weak sense of horror..."

"Wen Zhiren and Werner failed to get rid of the witch element, and brought the witch into the film, setting it as a doll that was cursed by the witch.

This, on the contrary, disperses the fear.Is it the witch that scares people, or the doll cursed by the witch?

If the witch element is removed and the doll is only set as an evil thing, such a setting may make the audience feel more frightened.There's also no horror point of having an extra witch to distract the viewer.

In other words, at the end of the film, it is revealed that the doll is cursed by the witch, and the elimination of the doll will not end the terrible things.

Instead, let the audience and the protagonist know about the witch prematurely, investigate and solve it in the direction of the witch, and ignore the doll.

......"

"A lot of people have commented on "Deadly Doll", and I think they are not right. They said that they didn't watch "Deadly Doll" because they were cheated on "Blair Witch".

Such comments do not understand us at all.

Although we were deceived because of "Blair Witch", we said that we would not watch the movies of Wen Zhiren and Werner.But actually, many of us bought tickets to see it.

However, after seeing it, we feel that "Deadly Doll" is not even as good as "Blair Witch".

The only thing that can be compared is that it is clear, not dangling, and more detailed than "The Witch Blair".

However, we found that "Deadly Doll" pays too much attention to the details of horror cartoons, and the storyline is patchwork and too chaotic..."

Wen Zhiren and Werner became more and more frustrated, as if what they said online was right.Even ordinary movie fans, what they say seems to make sense.

The two were locked in the house and drank booze for three days.

"Maybe, it's because the schedule coincides with the American version of "The Grudge", which led to the poor box office." Werner comforted Wen Zhiren, and at the same time comforted himself.

"No, it has little to do with the American version of "The Grudge", it's just that we didn't shoot well."

Werner blamed himself.

"It's because I didn't listen to your advice and insisted on increasing investment. If we only made a few million dollars, we wouldn't have such a big psychological burden."

"No, if you only shoot a few million dollars, you will think that the failure is due to too little investment as you said. Now, we have no excuses. We can only face ourselves by admitting that we have failed."

"Why don't we ask Brother Long for advice?"

"I'm afraid of disturbing him."

"However, we can't find the reason ourselves. Just looking at the comments on the Internet, they may not be right."

"Okay. Let's fly to Brother Long."

"Frozen" is an animation and does not need to be filmed.Produced by Shi Lei's film special effects company, Wu Long definitely couldn't stay in Haolaihu, but completed the production with Shi Lei.

In the imperial capital, Wen Zhiren and Werner met Wu Long.

"Brother Long, we failed." As soon as we met, Wen Zhiren embarrassedly admitted that he had failed.

Werner was also a little uncomfortable. "Brother Long, we screwed up."

Wu Long smiled and poured coffee for the two of them.

"You guys care too much about gains and losses. "Blair Witch" has damaged your reputation, and it will take time to make up for it. However, fans will forget, so you don't have to worry. The reason for this failure is that fans still hold grudges. You guys Keep shooting, and your box office will be better for the next film."

Hearing Wu Long's comforting words, Wen Zhiren didn't agree.However, Werner felt that what Wu Long said might be right.

"Really? Brother Long, aren't you comforting us?" Werner wanted Wu Long's affirmation.

Just when Wu Long wanted to affirm, Wen Zhiren spoke first.

"No, no, Brother Long just said that to comfort us. If you ask like this, would Brother Long say it's not true? If that's the case, there won't be so many different voices in those comments on the Internet, but one-sided Said to refuse to watch our movies."

Hearing what Wen Zhiren said, Werner couldn't think so anymore.Fortunately, he also wanted to ask Wu Long for advice.If you accept Wu Long's consolation, then it's not easy to ask Wu Long again.

"Brother Long, I need your advice." Wen Zhiren said sincerely.

Werner certainly can't fall behind.

"Brother Long, I also need your advice."

Wu Long thought for a while and said seriously:

"Actually, what I said just now is not just consolation, but there is indeed such a factor. If you say that you make another film yourself, the box office will come back, do you believe it?"

Werner nodded, Wen Zhiren shook his head.Werner found Wen Zhiren shaking his head, changed his mind immediately, and shook his head too.

Wu Long didn't care about Werner's attitude and change.

"So, are you sure you want my advice?"

The two nodded at the same time.

"However, my advice is still what I said before. If I say it directly, it is just with my own distinctive characteristics. Everyone's style and characteristics are different. My style and characteristics may not be suitable for you. You, it's better for you to explore on your own, so that you can understand your own things."

"But Brother Long, I'm really confused now!" Wen Zhiren said, "I really need your guidance, otherwise I don't think I can get out."

Werner thought for a while and said, "Brother Long, without your guidance, maybe we would go on the wrong path."

"Well, I'll give you another script, and you guys help me make another film. Don't mention my name and pretend that it has nothing to do with me. You can learn, understand, and refine your own characteristics through making this film. "

"Are you still willing?"

Wen Zhiren did not hesitate: "I am willing!"

"I am willing too." Werner did not fall behind.

"Okay, you wait for me for two days, I will find time to write a script for you."

Two days later, Wen Zhiren and Werner got the script.

"Spirit: Ghost Story"

The two opened the script and were immediately shocked by the content inside.

"Brother Long, is there a typo on this, and two zeros are missing?"

"Brother Long, the production cost is only [-] U.S. dollars? Is this a typo?"

The two of them pointed at the digits with their fingers again to make sure that they read correctly.

If it is $150 million, or even $15, they can understand it.But what can this fifteen thousand dollars do?

A bad movie like "Blair Witch" costs $800.Not to mention the [-] million marketing expenses.

Now this "Smart: Ghost Story" doesn't even have [-] marketing or publicity fees, how can I play it?

The two looked at Wu Long, shouting in their hearts at the same time:

"Brother Long, don't play with us anymore."
