Chapter 664: When a movie is interpreted in various ways, it means it has been successful.
In fact, it is not a bad thing if a movie is controversial.
Of course, what we are talking about here is controversy, and there are supporters and opponents.
Rather than a one-sided bug that can be easily recognized as a bug at a glance!
Like when Chen Yongren discovered that Liu Jianming was Han Chen's undercover agent, leaving or staying was a matter of choice.
But since the movie was shot like that, there are many explanations, because the audience cannot be Chen Yongren and cannot know what he was thinking at the time.
That's why there are so many fans giving various interpretations of their own ideas.
But what about the reality?
How could Chen Yongren have so many ideas?
And this is the charm of the movie. Some shots, some details, the movie is only responsible for showing one possibility, but the audience will actively interpret various possibilities.
Not only that, there are more and more discussions and controversies about "Infernal Affairs" as the movie is released.
For example, was the phone call Lin Guoping made reasonable?
Some fans expressed confusion, thinking how could an undercover agent dare to tip off the gangsters so blatantly? However, some fans quickly refuted the opponent because it was completely an illusion deliberately created by the director, and the facts proved that Han Chen did not
I know the police force has changed the frequency.
Then Lin Guoping didn't tip Han Chen off at all, but a colleague actually called to inquire.
What's even more interesting is that movie fans can actually have various interpretations on the question of whether "Silly Qiang" is stupid or not.
A certain film critic wrote a review about "Silly Strong" on Weibo!
""If anyone is not attentive and looks at you, he is a policeman" - Sha Qiang
Sha Qiang didn't play much in the whole movie, but he captured my heart. In Han Chen's eyes, Sha Qiang is a fool. Many times, Sha Qiang also showed his silly side, such as when trading.
, Han Chen asked Shaqiang to shout again, the cocaine is yours, Shaqiang shouted the original words sillyly. It can be seen that this person has a simple mind, but this person also has his own clever side. He is the character in the movie
, the first person to notice the presence of a plainclothes policeman. During the transaction, he keenly noticed that the plainclothes policeman was staring at him.
He is a man of great righteousness and believes that a brother is a brother. For example, when Chen Yongren lied about going for a massage, Shaqiang did not tell Han Chen about his absence in order to prevent his brother from being punished by the boss. Even if he was cheated
Even though he was shot, he insisted on driving Chen to escape from the police arrest. At the last moment of his life, he did not forget to tell Chen how to judge who is the police: "You have to remember that if a person is not paying attention to what he is doing, and he is looking at
To you, he is a policeman." For such a flesh-and-blood character, although he is a villain in the movie, who can say that he is a bad person? In this movie, it seems that justice or evil cannot be judged according to common sense. A bad person,
He may be a good person in his heart, but a good person may not be as good as he appears on the surface. In my heart, a stupid strong person is a stupid strong person, and he is a living person."
But there are a lot of objections to this film review.
"A blogger is actually stupid and strong enough to be stupid? I think you are the real stupid one!"
"Are you stupid and strong? You're not stupid at all, right? That sentence is shouted in reverse, which just proves that he is smarter than anyone else, right? If he really said that the cocaine is mine, then he is really stupid!"
"That's right, Shaqiang accurately spotted the plainclothes man in the crowd. What's even more embarrassing is that when he said this to Di Lu, he deliberately didn't look at Di Lu. The whole process was like this. Originally, Shaqiang was looking at the left side of the vehicle.
Ahead, turning to the right, I noticed at a glance that a man and woman were staring at me in unnatural postures (they seemed to be a man and a woman, but the focus of their attention was not on each other, but on standing side by side looking stupid and strong). He lowered his head and blinked at the lower left.
Jiao (thinking), glanced at Dilu to the right, quickly turned to look at the left window, and said, "Are those two people looking at me?". You feel this reaction, this operation, do you think it is really stupid?
stupid?"
"To be fair, let alone performance, have you ever seen a male idiot who went from a junior employee to an assistant to the president in just three to five years without any blood relationship? Besides, you say stupid is stronger than stupid, but
Is Han Chen stupid? Obviously he is not stupid, but he will let a fool become his leader? What he does is a one-of-a-kind deal that will lead to death if caught, let alone Longgu Beach.
He can shout in reverse, and just ignore his own shouting, and even scatter a large bag of powder cleanly and get away without guilt. It seems that there has never been any mistakes in the warehouse. How can such a person be stupid for him? Who is so stupid?
I think that’s really stupid!”
In fact, by this time, "Infernal Affairs" was already extremely successful.
Because when someone criticizes it and more people come out to refute it, it means that this movie has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
After the box office of "Infernal Affairs" reached 120 million on the first day, the box office obviously showed an upward trend the next day, and the magnitude was not small.
The next day's box office of 160 million and the still high score of 9.3 on Popular Film Critics Network made countless people know that the explosion of this movie was inevitable.
Not to mention, it has already become a hot topic after just two days of release, and the media reports are almost all related to "Infernal Affairs".
Not only that, soon all Hong Kong celebrities started to promote "Infernal Affairs" spontaneously.
Because for them, if Hong Kong movies can really be revived, even if it is just a revival of police and gangster movies, it will be an absolute good thing for them. Therefore, helping "Infernal Affairs" is actually helping themselves to a certain extent.
And it's just to help out, and the movie is actually very good.
As a result, more and more topics about "Infernal Affairs" have been drawn, and more and more fans have participated in the interpretation and discussion of various details, and stars from all walks of life have promoted it.
On the third day of its release, "Infernal Affairs" hit a new box office record with daily revenue of 180 million!
The box office reached 460 million in three days of release! It can be said that it is only a matter of time before this movie breaks the box office record of Hong Kong movies.
While fans' discussions and focus are all on the content, filmmakers and media people in Hong Kong are analyzing the film's story structure and the way the story is presented.
Because you can't copy "Infernal Affairs", but you can use it as a reference.
For example, two-hero mode, two-line narrative, mirror character design, etc.
Compared to the mainland, "Infernal Affairs" on Hong Kong Island directly exploded.
After the first day's 4.91 million, although the box office on the second and third days did not increase, with 4.82 million and 4.88 million respectively, the three-day box office was close to 15 million, which is already the best result for a Hong Kong film.
It is foreseeable that it is only a matter of time before "Infernal Affairs" breaks the highest box office record for Hong Kong films!
