Time writers | Little bear fudge should not walk into that good night gently.
Last week, A Tange's "Ling Yun 2" officially replaced Dr. Strange 2, temporarily ranked in North America's annual box office championship.
And Marvel's "Thor 4" will be released in North America next month. I wonder if it can make the crown's position change?
Although we can't see the above two new films as soon as possible. But directed by "Ling Yun 2", the science fiction film starring the "Brother Hammer" Chris Hills Vosworth has launched the Internet flying on time last Friday.
What is the quality of the "streaming meal replacement" of two large blockbusters? Time Jun can only indicate--
"Escape Spider Head"
Pharmaceutical experiment
Imagine that you are a prisoner, and there is an opportunity to release you from ordinary prisons to high -tech prisons that can move freely daily.
The price is to cooperate with a series of drug experiments. These new medicines will change your thoughts and minds in a short time, so that you can make many violations.
Will you agree?
The prisoner Jeff (Mels Teller) is a member of the spider head prison.
One in the middle
These medicines are strange, "laughing and gallery" can make people laugh at everything; "ghosts" are great pain; "good words" can help people Wen Siquan, endless; Fall in love with strangers who have no interest ...
After Jeff was injected, scientist Steve Enaste (Hammer Brother) will observe his behavior and record it.
Steve is the head of Spider -head prison. According to his statement, he was just sent here and responsible for drug experiments.
Unlike the general impression of the prison guards, Steve is a pretty friendly person. He allowed prisoners to enjoy food, conduct entertainment activities, and even happy to make friends with them.
However, the peaceful situation in the prison was broken by a failure experiment.
Under the influence of affection, Jeff went to bed with two women in one day. Subsequently, Steve called Jeff outside the laboratory and asked him to choose one among the two to accept the injection of ghosts.
Jeff, who has experienced the severe pain caused by the drug, rejected Steve's request.
The new day came, Jeff found that he was placed in the same laboratory as a muscle man.
When he noticed that he broke into the observation room, he found that one of the women who had been going to bed with him were sitting in the house. Steve also asked her to make a choice to inject gulcas for whom, and she refused as Jeff.
Obviously, Steve group all prisoners and conducted experiments one by one. But unfortunately, everyone cannot make a choice.
In the new week, Steve pressed in the name of the committee. He wanted to send Jeff back to the state prison as a threat, and forced him to agree to injecting yin depression for others.
After that, accidents occurred during the experiment, and Jeff finally discovered the secret of Spider -head prison in a panic -
There is no so -called "committee" at all, and the entire prison belongs to Steve.
The real purpose of the experiment is to test a drug called "Congzao". Whether it can make people really fully obey the order of others and do what they do not want to do.
This is the hole card that Steve dares to live in harmony with the murderers.
All prisoners were controlled by the commander before they knew it. The "consent" before each injection of drugs is the key to the entire experiment.
How can Jeff, who noticed the truth, escaped the birth of birth under the control of Steve?
Losing level
(The following content has spoilers)
"Escape from the Spider's Head" is adapted from the Booker Award winner George Sanders Published on the New Yorker's short story. The original space is extremely short, only the first person, telling the protagonist's encounters in the spider head prison. In the end, because he was unable to bear the emptiness and fear of personal will, he committed suicide in despair and committed suicide in despair.
As far as the volume and plot of the novel are concerned, it is very difficult to adapt into a film with a complete and convergence. And low -cost and high -concept films want to succeed, the setting of gimmicks and accurate rhythm control, the two are indispensable.
Unfortunately, "Escape from the spider head" failed at these two points.
In order to make the plot fully, the movie has added a lot of content during the adaptation.
For example, to add emotional lines to the protagonist, the love between Jeff and female prisoner Liz became his motivation to resist Steve. And the behind -the -scenes hands that changed Steve to everything, trying to make the whole story more surprising and ironic.
However, these changes did not add color to the movie, but made the whole story look bloated and more logical loopholes appeared.
It is difficult to explain why Steve, as a drug researcher, can have the absolute freedom to deal with prisoners. The state did not even take any measures to monitor his experiments.
He knew the terrible drugs, and he was so confident that he also wore a purse kit for himself. He had not considered the possibility of being taken away by others by others.
The emotional drama of Jeff and Liz is even more boring.
Jeff, who had died in a car accident during the driving process, met Liz, who was similar to his wife in a spider -head prison, and fell in love with each other.
When their relationship was discovered by Steve, the other party asked Jeff to inject yin depression to Liz. Want to test whether Jeff can do the most fearful and disgusting things in his heart, that is, once again hurt the one he loves.
Obviously, the screenwriter wanted to make him out of the shadow through Jeff's resistance to achieve psychological redemption. However, the accident is an accident. The injection of drugs is coerced. The two cannot form an effective contrast. Naturally, they also miss the best time to build a character arc light. The protagonist is still so flat, not to mention the rest of the supporting roles.
Everyone is as thin as a puppet on the screen. Just like this movie itself, the torrent shell with a bluffed person is empty.
The audience really needs this drug
In fact, the real core of the original work is the discussion of the abuse of drug abuse and human free will. If the film is deepened by this focus, it may not become a masterpiece.
However, Net Fei chose to work hard on the suspense, hoping that the audience was shocked by the reveal of the order of the order.
Unfortunately, everyone is not very interested in the differences in various drugs. The same is the difference between being controlled and lost, emotional control and behavior of being controlled by the two?
The fragile orgasm plot caused a further collapse of the rhythm of the film.
The escape process of the subsequent protagonist is simply casual like a child who is a family. It is really hard to imagine that this is actually the assignment of the director of "Ling Yun 2" with a well -known Hollywood actor to surrender to the audience.
Net flight flow line
In recent years, Internet Fei has incorporated more and more well -known directors.
Afangso Callon, Kon Brothers, Martin SCs, Feng Junhao ... and even Spielberg, who has publicly contempt for overcurrent media.
Why did the top directors be willing to pick up the olive branches from net flying? At least one of the reasons is: it is too much!
Not only willing to smash the money, the directors who won the college award were invited to shoot the masterpieces of Chongao. High -investment and large -scale action movies are also a weapon that attracts the audience to attract the audience.
As early as 2020, Chris Heims Worth cooperated with the Russell Brothers to shoot the Internet flying action film "Sky Rescue". When the film was broadcast, it also set a record of most viewers.
This record was broken by the Red Wanted Order.
This "big data" movie that gathers Tonan Johnson, Ryan Renzz, Gal Gado, a "big data" movie with the love elements of the audience, is still in the original TOP1 of the original movie to watch the original movie.
In addition, films such as "Living Death Legion", "Adam Plan" and "Don't Raise" have also brought considerable benefits to Net Fei.
It is like a precise production flow line.
On the basis of abundant funds, fill in the excellent directors, well -known actors, and big data screening in turn, and the elements that can explode the audience's cooling point. Flying.
The award hopes that Jiu Bao is on a series of literary films, and the quality is average, but the action film that is enough to stimulates the consumption of users. This is the business model of Net Fei in film. Therefore, the perfunctory and boring of "Escape from the Spider's Head" is not really unexpected.
"Red Wanted Order" Rotten tomato freshness and popcorn index are polarized
However, according to sources, the plan may usher in change in the future.
Reasons such as lagging growth and increasing competition in users have made Net Fei's decision to cut off 150 employees. In terms of movies, Net flight may also slow down the frequency of release, reduce the production of small cost art films, and focus on the launch of larger and better -quality films.
After Apple TV +'s "Hearing Girl" has won the best film of Oscar, the dispute over the streaming media platform film will only intensify. At the moment when the global film industry is weak, such a benign competition may bring new vitality to the industry.
Next month, "Gray Shadow", which costs 200 million US dollars, is about to be released, directed by Russell Brothers, starring the commander and the US team.
Is there anything different this time? Wait for a look.
