Chapter 727

In early December, it was a delicate schedule. Forward, it's Thanksgiving; In the future, it will be Christmas; Stay where you are. It's award season.

This can be said to be a very busy schedule, but it can also be said to be a very cold schedule“ After the "Harry Potter" series and "Twilight city" series became the winners of this schedule, film companies are trying to tap more potential of this schedule, but it's hard to predict whether they will win or lose.

The first week of December 2011 is such a very cold time.

Three weeks ago, "Twilight: Dawn (Part one)" officially premiered, and in the midst of a lot of criticism, it handed over a record high of 138 million. It once again showed people the huge market energy of fans' movies. But the next week, "dawn" dropped as much as 70%, calming down the heat wave of the schedule with an avalanche attitude overnight.

Then came this week, "anti cancer me" was the only newly released work, but it was only a work with an investment of 8 million yuan. The whole North American box office market was like a bankrupt Detroit, a ghost town, deserted and uninhabited.

Lion Gate film's intention to choose this schedule is very clear, that is, to seize the space. Now it seems that their strategy has undoubtedly achieved success. Even the awards season works have been abandoned. This week, only one "shame" was shown in ten theaters, which makes "anti cancer me" the only focus of attention.

Even in the open space, it seems too cold.

However, no one can predict the trend of the holiday file, and this time it is the same“ After the premiere of "anti-cancer me", there was a "dawn" watching frenzy in Lincoln Center; After that, the popularity of Internet news even exceeded "dawn", which was close to the "Harry Potter" finale of the summer program; Then there was a wave of praise from the media, and the excitement of Christmas seemed to explode in early December.

"Washington Post", 91 points, "it's very easy for a film with such a theme to fall into the deep insight of life, or the emotional torrent of sensationalism, or the fragile dog blood comedy. Fortunately," anti cancer me "has successfully avoided these stereotypes, contributed a relaxed and happy comedy, and left the thinking and aftertaste to the audience. Maybe the perfect ending is too Hollywood, but it's based on the writer's real experience. Who can complain more? "

"Variety show", 88 points, "it's not easy for a film focusing on disease to show such delicate care, but 'anti-cancer me' has done it, refusing to hide the pain or magnify the pain. The film has found its own way of expression and touched the hearts of every audience. By the way, Langley hall is definitely the soul of the work

"Los Angeles Times", 88 points, "this is a simple and pure film, it wants the audience to laugh, it does; It also wanted the audience to taste life, and it did

"American weekly", 88 points, "every bridge, every plot, every turn is so old-fashioned, so familiar, so routine, but you will laugh, you will cry, you will be moved, you will be happy. The important thing is, you'll like it. "

"New York Times", 83 points, "wonderful performance, this is a bonus item, Seth Logan, Langley hall, Anna Kendrick have accomplished their task excellently, and even brought surprise -- especially Langley hall; Delicate and solid script, in the cold reality and humor to find a balance, this is a victory

"Vanity Fair", 80 points, "in this comedy film with tears in the middle of laughter, from laughter to tears and back to reflection, Langley hall, perhaps the actor with the most solid performing skills and the most flexible acting touch in generation Y, has contributed the most praiseworthy performance on the big screen this year, avoiding the film falling into the trap of routine."

"Seattle Post", 80 points, "Langley Hall's expression is so real, so delicate, so vivid, he not only convinced every audience, this is a struggling anti-cancer fighter; It also successfully hit every audience's inner softness, helplessness, anger and bitterness in the face of disease. Just as in real life, what we need to face is not only cancer, but also many troubles of our own. "

……

From four full marks to one twenty-five points, among them, 33 high praise and eight medium reviews have successfully set the keynote of the first round of film review of "anti cancer me" as praise. One good review after another has swept away the haze of the North American market in the past month, and once again let people see an excellent work with outstanding reputation!

Among them, "American weekly" brought up the old story again. They once again mentioned the Seattle incident in February this year. Now, all the news about lanli's malicious hype has disappeared, but Gavin hunt reminds all the audience that in the work "anti cancer me", lanli's performance is so real and vivid that even the real cancer patients agree and awaken the deep resonance. Once again, it proves that the charges are false.

It's no doubt more interesting to combine the news hype after the premiere.

In a special report written by Gavin, he concluded: last year, in order to shoot "cancer fighting me", Langley regretfully missed the Oscar ceremony; Now, the excellent performance of "anti-cancer me" proves that Langley is the most gifted and spiritual actor in generation y. can this work bring him back to the stage of Oscar?

Praise frenzy! Recommended heat wave! Talk about the Tsunami“ After the official release of "anti-cancer me", it easily became the focus of attention. Finally, after the statistics of 42 media reviews, the comprehensive evaluation of the media was as high as 80 points, basically equal to the 81 points of "Juno", which once again triggered continuous attention and hot discussion on the Internet.

The excellent performance of media comprehensive review also continued to other reviews.

On the website of rotten tomato, 188 media reviews are included. Although it can't be compared with the hot summer movies, it's also an amazing number. After all, the movie has just had its premiere. In the end, the freshness index of rotten tomatoes reached an amazing 96%, which undoubtedly became one of the most popular commercial films in autumn and holiday this year.

Besides 96% fresh index, the score of rotten tomatoes also reached 8.5! After the professional media, the mass media also reached a consensus, even better, singing praises for "anti-cancer me".

Not only the media, in fact, the audience also gave similar opinions. The popcorn index was 89%, and the score of the cinema was "a -". It can be clearly felt that the audience who attended the premiere and who entered the cinema on the first day of the official premiere were all full of praise for the work, and the overall performance was basically the same as that of the media.

The most amazing thing is that, on top of IMDB, more than 5300 viewers of "anti cancer me" voted, and the score reached 8.4 in a row! It's a terrible 8.4!

At present, because the number of voters is not enough, "anti-cancer me" has not been able to enter the list, but if calculated according to the data of 8.4 points, in the list of classic 250 best works, we can stride into the top 100, ranking in the range of 50 to 70!

It is a rare feat for any work to be included in this list, because it is a list that has withstood the test of millions of fans.

Although the number of voters of "anti-cancer me" is still too small, the score is not accurate; Although "anti cancer me" experienced the accident of the premiere, there is a possibility that fans will brush points. With the advance of time, the scores will fall back; Although "anticancer me" has just entered the list in theory

However, the score of only 8.4 points is enough to make people feel the attention and affirmation of "anti cancer me". It is worth mentioning that this is lanli's first "theoretically" work that can be included in the list so far. Before that, neither "buried alive" nor "Crazy" have been able to create such a feat. This shows the position of "anti-cancer me" now.

From professional media to mass media, from professional audience to ordinary audience, "anti cancer me" is causing a wave of all-round praise. Driven by the unexpected events at the premiere, it has burst out ten or even 100 times of influence and spread in a mighty way. This is absolutely the end that everyone did not expect, even Lion Gate pictures did not expect.

Originally, everyone thought that the first week of December would be a boring, quiet and boring time, and there might even be no news to report. It's an 8 million dollar independent masterpiece? Even if it turns over rivers and seas, its influence will be limited after all. But the reality is that it is such an independent work that has successfully caused a sensation in the whole of North America and gradually become the most eye-catching work of the holiday season.

Strong momentum even faintly exceeded "Breaking Dawn". In the final analysis, "Breaking Dawn" is a pure fan movie, in addition to the specific girl audience, other people are not interested at all; But "anti cancer me" is a comedy, a comedy that can be watched by the whole people, and an inspirational story about the course of anti-cancer?

In this case, the curiosity and enthusiasm of the audience was completely detonated.

Take a step back, just after Thanksgiving, the family atmosphere has not yet completely dissipated. Maybe it's a good choice for the whole family to watch movies together; Christmas hasn't come yet. It's a good idea to choose a warm and interesting comedy movie when you go to the cinema to relax at the weekend; It seems that the awarding season is absent from this week's bombing, so if you look at "anti cancer me", maybe this work will emerge in the awarding season? Anyway, the media and the audience are so fond of this work, what's impossible?

The coldest schedule has become the busiest weekend.
