Chapter 20: I'll give you a sneak peek

Chapter 20 I’ll give you an instant sniper

This day is destined to be a day like the Chinese New Year in the film and television industry.

Yin Haidong, as a professional film critic, this period of time will also be the period in which he works most closely.

Maybe many people don't know much about this profession and have many doubts, including, who do film critics serve?

There are actually two types: professional film critics and amateur film critics.

Amateurs are usually film and television bloggers or ‘movie critics’ on websites targeting general audiences. They make money purely out of love or earn money from traffic.

In today's fast-paced era, they serve people who have difficulty choosing, or who want to watch movies but don't have time to do so.

An analogy is to watch a certain movie and quickly explain the plot from your own perspective.

Although this type of comments are generally subjective, and there are many such amateur film critics on Douban, they do not have much reference value, because such film critics rarely analyze some elements too much from a professional perspective.

Moreover, it will bring in one's own personal emotions, which may also lead to polarized evaluations by two different amateur 'film critics'.

But professional film critics are different. They make money by writing film reviews and publishing them in magazines or professional organizations and websites.

It is more about serving some senior audiences in the industry.

They are more from a professional perspective and analyze a film in absolute detail.

From the use of lenses to the performance of lighting, to the language of storyboards, and even the director's intention for a certain shot, including the actors' acting skills and techniques, we will all analyze it for you.

That is to say, they analyze everything from environment, color, light, audio-visual language, prop function, transitions, editing and other details.

The position is absolutely fair, because a qualified professional film reviewer will definitely list all the good and bad points for you.

In fact, ordinary people don’t understand this stuff at all, and few outsiders have ever seen what a real movie review looks like.

And Yin Haidong is such a professional film critic.

Today, he received a task from the magazine "Light and Shadow Vision" to conduct an in-depth evaluation of all the films in the National Day schedule. He also received premiere tickets from many film producers.

At this time, Yin Haidong was at the premiere of "Sniper". He was already sitting in his seat with a pen and file board in hand.

There must be more than one film critic sitting next to him, as well as other actors and important film crew members of "Sniper".

Including Meng Ga was also present.

It can be said that Meng Ga is in high spirits tonight.

After many years, he has re-entered the film and television industry. With the release of his new film, his reputation has also made a considerable comeback, and he has been talked about a lot during this time.

Even before the premiere, Meng Ga was on the verge of success when being interviewed by the media present.

Of course, if the results and box office of "Sniper" are satisfactory, his future will definitely be unlimited.

Therefore, Meng Ga had already begun to imagine that he had been preparing for so long, and even gritted his teeth and brought goods online to build up popularity, and finally saw the rewards.

The movie was about to start and the whole place fell silent.

The lights in the movie theater have gone dark.

Dragon signs begin to appear.

Next, the crackling sound of flames sounded, and three production credits appeared in succession.

Then, the main film appeared.

At the beginning, I first introduce the background of the story.

The background of this story is in modern times. The protagonist, the character played by Meng Ga, is a retired soldier and a sniper.

Yin Haidong began to open the notebook and pressed the small light tube on the top of the file board, which emitted a faint light just enough to illuminate the notebook.

The story started to move forward, and the theater was very quiet.

But as he watched, Yin Haidong's face was expressionless at first, and then he gradually frowned.

Of course, it's not that his perception of this film is so bad, but

Twenty minutes have passed since the beginning of the video, and he didn't see anything outstanding.

The story line has been unfolded, and the story to be told is already clear in advance.

It's nothing more than a story about a sniper who retired and got involved in a big conspiracy, so he started to take revenge.

It's a very simple story of good guys beating bad guys, and in the end the good guys win and the bad guys get punished.

It’s not that this kind of story is not good, but it is too simple and boring, lacking some plot tension and details worthy of consideration.

Just. This script is very ordinary. This is Yin Haidong’s intuitive feeling.

Of course, the most important thing is the acting skills of Meng Ga and other leading actors.

The starring role of this film, besides Meng Ga, is also a famous traffic flower, who is called the "Inland Breast God", with a boyish appearance and a giant face.

But her acting skills are really hard to describe, her clothes are very revealing, and her figure is highlighted very well.

But it just didn't feel like being on the battlefield. Instead, Yin Haidong felt like she was playing Yin?

Next was Meng Ga, who was also somewhat beyond his expectation. Of course, it was an unexpected difference.

Originally, in his impression, Meng Ga's acting skills were pretty good when he was a child, at least the tension was achieved.

So after so many years of accumulation and study, how can I say that I have to be better? I can even reach a natural level.

But when Yin Haidong read it, he had only one comment.

rotten!

Really, Meng Ga's acting skills have deteriorated visibly.

Originally, for such a tough guy character, he should be able to portray that kind of iron-bloodedness.

But when Yin Haidong looked into his eyes, he only saw wretchedness.

In addition to being wretched, he is more like a villain, not a vicious villain, but a perverted villain!

Especially when the movie progressed to a chase and gunfight scene, Yin Haidong was stunned.

Because in the shot, the protagonist played by Meng Ga is running around in the woods with a large sniper rifle, but with his neck hunched and his head tilted forward.

Even the lower jaw is tilted forward. In other words, she has the beauty of Ming Taizu.

Then wearing a blue suit and holding a sniper rifle, he went to save the heroine.

As a sniper, I completely forgot about the composure and calmness that a real sniper should have! And the stealth!

"Charge sniper? What, you want to give me the whole instant sniper?"

This is the first thing Yin Haidong wants to complain about.

This scene demonstrates the wretchedness played by Meng Ga to a vivid level.

This scene directly broke Yin Haidong's long-standing understanding of snipers in reality, leaving him in a state of confusion.

If we say that the previous plot was not outstanding, it was still below the level of watchable level.

Then this scene directly classified this film in Yin Haidong's mind as a 'bad film'.

Although film and television works are works of art, imagination is allowed.

But military-themed works are serious dramas! So naturally, these works must be based on reality!

Then I saw later that Meng Ga really used his instant sniper.

Yin Haidong decisively started taking close-ups in his notebook.

"disappointment!"
Chapter completed!
