Disaster Artist

He Shaoguang, a professional film critic, playwright, and winner of the Literary and Art Award. He is the first and currently the only film critic who has won the Literary and Art Award through film criticism. And professionally written sixteen film works.

His professional film criticism philosophy has also been recognized by many, "relative, not absolute".

To put it simply, there is no absolute good and no absolute bad.

When the audience sees a bad film, they may hate it deeply, but in front of another worse bad film, the former seems tolerable; in the same way, when the audience sees a good film, it may be It will cheer, but it may be overshadowed by countless masterpieces in the long history.

The same 60 points may represent different meanings in different sequences; the same 90 points may not necessarily be regarded as a classic.

One of the most representative events of He Shaoguang is that about fourteen years ago, he attended the Weihai Film Festival, one of the three major film festivals in the world. one day".

After the viewing, He Shaoguang gave an 80% favorable evaluation, "Because the film achieved the original purpose of shooting, the creators showed their intentions well, but this does not mean that the film itself is worth watching, Obviously you can find more and better options in Celeste.”

In conclusion, it is not worth recommending to watch.

This is the best definition of He Shaoguang's professionalism and personality, so there are often weird phenomena in his film reviews, obviously high scores but not recommended to watch, obviously low scores but think it is worth watching.

"People who watch my film reviews, if they only look at the ratings and not the content, then they can't get real advice."

This is He Shaoguang's evaluation of himself.

Now, He Shaoguang's film reviews are not only published on his personal website, but also included in the authoritative professional art magazine "Film Handbook".

The authority of "Cinebook" is slightly different from "Inside the Movie" and "World of Light and Shadow". This magazine is more artistic and more avant-garde. At the same time, it has always been looking forward to treating movies as an art rather than a means of entertainment. Naturally, they The treatment of commercial films is often harsher.

Their most typical feature is that the editor-in-chief of the magazine always firmly believes that the core of a movie is the director, not the actor, not the producer, not the script, but the director!

"Unfriend" detonated the global box office and created countless miracles, but "Film Manual" did not give any reports from beginning to end, which is the most direct proof.

In fact, this "raid" and "movie manual" are still not interested, and even less concerned about the gossip about "boss speeding" and "raid", but He Shaoguang is an exception, he treats all movies equally, when He Shaoguang Wrote a film review, and the "Cinema Manual" will be published no matter what.

"As a retro action movie, 'The Raid' is most commendable for two things."

"One, martial arts instruction and action design.

In recent years, action design has gradually reached a dead end, and it is difficult to see new ideas. This is also an important reason for the decline of action movies, but it is clear that the 'raid' has recovered the magic, and the different action styles of different characters can be seen in the strong collision. The sparks, the climax throughout, are truly a feast for the lovers. "

"Second, the director.

In his second work, Lu Qianqian vividly shows his keen talent for lens composition, scene scheduling, atmosphere creation and emotional immersion. The lens design and composition details that are astounding are everywhere, bold enough but enough Delicately cracking the plasma and keeping the audience focused for ninety minutes, he certainly did an incredible job. "

Judging from the above comments, He Shaoguang gave unbelievable praise, but the final score was only 85 points. Why is this?

"Unfortunately, the director consciously removed the branches of the characters for the sake of the concise narrative, but simply and rudely opposed the black and white forces. This is undoubtedly a lazy approach, and it also greatly affects the possibility of further improvement of the film--

It could have been a classic, but now it's just a touch away. "

"Actually, from the end, Lu Qian is still ambitious, a fateful dislocation that brings a powerful impact, but there is a lack of foreshadowing in the first half of the story, especially for the background, choices, and arcs of the two main characters. The lack of details to support etc. also undercuts the impact of the ending."

"Lu Qian can do better."

He Shaoguang showed his trust and expectation for Lu Qian in his words, which is why the rating stopped at 85 points, but after the film review was released, it attracted countless attention, and reporters specially interviewed He Shaoguang.

He Shaoguang further stated that if it is placed in the classic sequences of retro action movies, "Raid" has the potential to rank among the top ten, but it is regrettable that it still lacks a breath; but if it is placed in the sequence of the last ten years If so, he personally thinks that "Assault" can surpass the "Dark Spy" series to reach the top of the decade--

By the way, in the "Dark Spy" trilogy, He Shaoguang's highest score is the third part, which is also 85 points.

So where is "The Raid" slightly better than "Dark Spy 3"?

"Director Lu Qian is a genius."

He Shaoguang said that the long shot of the side section of the corridor connecting with the first-view shot is undoubtedly the magic of the whole movie.

"Not only the stunning and shocking visual effects, but also the ingenious transformation of perspectives, allowing the audience to move from the group play in the first act to the protagonist's perspective in the second act. The whole immersion, experience and impact are perfectly combined. That kind of inspiration instantly takes the film to the next level."

Moreover, although "only" eighty-five points, He Shaoguang's suggestion was, "must see", "a movie that must not be missed in today's winter season".

Even if it is not a full score of 100~www.novelmt.com~, you can still deeply feel He Shaoguang's love.

In the first half of the year, "Unfriending" was born and became a dark horse at the box office, which also made people know Lu Qian, but Lu Qian's talent was not recognized, because the general view was that the success of "unfriending" was still beneficial in a new way of shooting.

After all, ordinary audiences don't know much about lighting, composition, scheduling, editing, and so on.

In the second half of the year, the "raid" made its debut amid the conflict of doubts and expectations. Everyone was waiting for Lu Qian's second work to see if it was a mule or a horse. Now, starting from the praise of professional media, to He Shaoguang's unreserved praise also really made people realize Lu Qian's talent——

In the movie "Raid", the most shining light did not come from the leading actor Guan Zhou, but from the director behind the movie.

This is the best recognition!

Of course, there are endless screams about Guan Zhou, and netizens seem to have found a new husband again.
