When a movie can touch the hearts of movie fans and allow them to follow the protagonist's emotional fluctuations, then there is no doubt that the movie is successful.
Zhou Yang's version of "Spider-Man" undoubtedly achieved this.
He is more delicate than the original "Spider-Man", vividly showing the characteristics of each character, the transformation of the protagonist's personality, and the process of transforming from an ordinary person to a superhero.
After Peter Wang's uncle passed away, the atmosphere of the entire movie took on a haze, loneliness, and even made people feel a little depressed.
The protagonist began to become distraught and confused, and even watched his uncle's coffin being buried, feeling as dull as a stone.
The camera gave him a few seconds of close-up, and these few seconds of close-up made the audience present unconsciously feel a strong sense of distress deep in their hearts.
Even the heroine Elena burst into tears instantly after seeing this scene...
Although, she reminded herself that this was a movie.
But the profound acting skills still affected her emotions. While she was amazed, she realized that the so-called sadness may not only mean shouting wantonly, but also not just breaking down and crying.
It was a kind of silence, so silent that no one could tell it, and could only bear it all silently.
"I feel like there is a thread called family, and now this thread is broken..."
"It's so delicate. The handling of the emotional line has a subtle sense like that of an Eastern director. There is no obvious expression, but it slowly shows the transformation process of a boy..."
"I never thought a superhero movie could make people so amazed."
Vaguely, she heard someone behind her sighing softly.
That voice is that of film critic Duncan.
He is a fairly good film critic on American Movie Network. When Hollywood indirectly banned Zhou Yang, James Bunter came forward to invite him to attend the premiere of "Spider-Man".
He was not reluctant at first, more because of human feelings. When the movie was shown, he became impatient several times, but when the movie got to this point, he watched it seriously.
Duncan remembered an old Chinese proverb: "Moisturize things silently." Zhou Yang seemed to use this method to present the plot.
When Peter Wang, who was often late, bullied and laughed at like a nerd, returned to school again, he seemed to have changed.
I am no longer late. Although I look as soft and weak as ever, I am not as gloomy and inferior as at the beginning. Instead, I have become sunny and optimistic.
Before the movie was played, the group of movie fans who had been scolding the protagonist began to watch it with gusto and felt a real sense of "counterattack".
But this kind of "counterattack" does not seem to alienate the distance between the protagonist and the fans. Instead, it begins to become more three-dimensional. What is amazing is that when you close your eyes and review the previous plot of this movie, you actually feel
It was extremely impressive…
"This is a film about the process of ordinary people becoming heroes."
"Indirectly stating that heroes are lonely..."
"The completely different thing from "Superman" is that "Superman" is not a small person from beginning to end, but a role, and he is a small person himself."
"When watching this movie, you will unconsciously put yourself into the protagonist, and then imagine that you will mutate and rise, and then..."
"When you see the first half of the movie, you even feel that all this is feasible..."
"I even wanted to catch a spider and bite it into my hand..."
When Zhou Yang was working on the script, he pondered for a long time and felt that if he was bitten by a spider, if he really had to shoot spider silk, it would be more reasonable to shoot the spider silk from his butt.
But the butt shoots spider silk...
This is a bit unsightly, so just like in the subsequent Marvel "Spider-Man", the spider webs fired from the arms were cancelled.
The only changes in Zhou Yang's version of "Spider-Man" are his amazing reaction speed, amazing hearing and various senses of touch, and his extraordinary and strong physical fitness.
on the screen.
The protagonist Peter Wang is an unknown little person during the day. At night, he relies on his extraordinary reflexes and extraordinary physical fitness to become a "hero".
The following fans became more and more excited as they watched, and the little girls couldn't help but stare at Zhou Yang's stars on the screen, and fell into fantasy with anticipation.
And another group of people were laughing...
The extraordinary physical fitness and strong strength can indeed allow the protagonist to defeat one against two against three, or even against ten, but...
Every time after the image was correct, the protagonist would twist his waist, suffer from back pain, or have some inexplicable muscle sequelae. At the same time, the various movements were so ugly that he jumped up many times and sprained his feet. All kinds of funny embarrassments. The mistake in the action made the fans burst into laughter, and the whole place was filled with joy and joy...
There is no superhero on the market as funny as Spider-Man.
This happy atmosphere is a kind of relief after having been depressed for so long, making movie fans happy physically and mentally, but the film critic Duncan shook his head.
"The criticism of "Spider-Man" is not that of the movie, but that the action design is really ugly, like gangsters fighting, without any beauty..."
"Although the fights in "Superman" are all resolved in one go, the action is much better than this..."
"that's too regretful!"
"..."
Duncan felt a little sorry.
But then, when he continued to watch, he suddenly realized that such ugly actions were a kind of foreshadowing.
At first, the protagonist doesn't care and continues to perform various actions, but the sequelae gradually begin to accumulate. After accumulating to a certain extent, it finally breaks out completely.
The protagonist began to feel tired, listless, and aching all over his body. He went to the hospital to take an X-ray, but the doctor who took the X-ray said that the protagonist was very healthy and could just rest for a while.
After the protagonist rested for a period of time, he gradually found that every time he performed various actions with the bad guys, he always felt aches and pains in his back, some shortness of breath, and a headache.
After accidentally passing by "Traditional Chinese Massage" on the street and seeing countless acupuncture points, Wang Peter walked into the massage parlor out of curiosity...
……………………
[Everyone has a Qi in their body. This Qi is wandering around the whole body. People who can control it know how to use breathing and breathing movements to regulate this Qi...]
[To put it in the simplest way, many well-known athletes use various breathing methods to adjust their "breath" during long-distance running, but this is the most rudimentary way...]
[This Qi mentioned by Chinese Taoists can be said to be true Qi...]
[Young man, your breath is disordered now, and your whole body is clogged...]
[I'll push it for you, please bear with it!]
【……】
In the screening room.
These old and American viewers followed the protagonist's vision and walked into a "TCM massage".
The person who received the protagonist was an old man with completely white beard and hair. Although the old man looked old, he had fair hair and a childish face, and he was quite immortal.
On the screen, when the audience saw the protagonist being held down in pain and even crying for his father and mother, some viewers felt that the protagonist's behavior was too exaggerated.
While punishing rape and eradicating evil, the protagonist's arm was scratched with a deep cut by a knife, he was punched hard, and he was hit hard against the wall. He had never been in such pain, but the old man seemed to be so gentle.
One click will make the protagonist miserable.
How can this be?
It's just too much nonsense.
"too exaggerated."
"Yeah, what kind of acupuncture point is this? Can X-ray scan it out?"
"If science can't explain something, isn't this a liar..."
"..."
Some viewers couldn't help but curled their lips.
I watched the protagonist limping into the massage parlor at first, and a few hours later, he walked out alive and kicking and started talking about it.
But this kind of discussion only lasted for a moment, and the entire screening room became quiet again. Everyone stared at the next plot on the screen with their eyes wide open.
A group of robbers broke into a traditional Chinese massage parlor and wanted to rob an old man. When the protagonist realized something was wrong and put on a spider suit to go back for rescue, he suddenly discovered that such an old man in his eighties actually behaved in an incredible way.
With such movements, several big men were pushed to the ground one by one...
The big man didn't even understand what was going on, and found that he couldn't move the arm holding the gun.
"God, what is this?"
"Is this Kung Fu? Chinese Kung Fu?"
"This Chinese Kung Fu is so beautiful, like dancing! Wow, I originally thought the action design of this movie was terrible, so ugly that it made people speechless, but no one could have imagined that it was so beautiful!"
"What kind of Chinese Kung Fu is this?"
"Wow, so cool!"
In the screening room.
A group of movie fans were amazed as they watched the old man's sometimes slow and sometimes fast movements on the screen.
They have never seen such beautiful action design.
"This is Tai Chi!"
"It's Tai Chi. I've seen it on the Internet, but I never imagined that such a light and airy boxing technique could be so powerful!"
"Isn't this what the Chinese call health-preserving boxing? Why can it be done like this?"
"You are so old and your movements are so light, can you actually make someone fall?"
"This is a borrowed force attack, which means using very keen judgment to judge the opponent's punching technique, and then predicting it in advance, and borrowing the opponent's strength to make the opponent's body unstable and fall to the ground..."
"..."
When a set of punches is completed.
The protagonist Peter Wang on the screen was stunned.
But off the screen, several Chinese young people began to enthusiastically introduce "Tai Chi" to these old and American audiences, with a hint of pride and excitement in their voices.
After listening to the introductions of several Chinese young people, several athletes in the back row stared at the screen, reviewing every move of the old man...
Then he asked a middle-aged coach next to him.
“Is this principle of Tai Chi real?”
The middle-aged coach frowned, and then deepened: "Theoretically, it should be true, but it is impossible for ordinary people to achieve this level..."
"What about Chinese massage? Is it so magical?"
"Well, I don't know..."
After several sports students saw the coach shaking his head, they were a little disappointed, but somehow they began to have an inexplicable interest in "TCM massage" and "Tai Chi".
I am thinking that after the movie is over, I will go to the street to find a Chinese medicine practitioner to try massage to see if it is really as painful as the legend says...
