Among these comments, Chris Fairbank's line "maybe Evan Bell's directorial performance is not a surprise, but at least a surprise" has won great approval.

The media generally believe that Evan Bell has completed the transformation from actor, singer to director very well. He presents a smooth and delicate movie, and it is authentic and credible. Both the picture and the soundtrack in the movie are so beautiful that people are fascinated. , The performances of the two actors are also very good. The most important thing is that Evan Bell can make a cliché story well, and the fresh and ordinary atmosphere even makes people cry. The biggest certainty of dealing with nv.

At the same time, many professional film critics also believe that Evan Bell still has countless energy waiting to explode in the director's position, and maybe another work he just completed, "Mysterious Skin", will surprise everyone.

"This may be the most touching romantic film of the decade since the advent of the "Covered Bridge Last Dream"" of The New York Times became the biggest footnote of the film itself.

And the views of "Premier" and "News of the World" that "this is an unrealistic fairy tale, boring and cliché" are the concentrated views of the opposing voices.

The controversy has never changed. As Evan Bell said, the sentence "the director's work" will not change anything, whether to praise or praise, whether to criticize or criticize, the media will not show mercy because you are a director for the first time , because this is their job.

Evan Bell, who has always been moving forward in controversy, was still surrounded by controversy after he came to the director's position. "The Notebook of Love" also started its journey on the box office list with great attention.

When it comes to the box office, the "Spider-Man 2", a huge crocodile that attracts gold, has undoubtedly attracted all the media's attention. The "Spider-Man 2", which premiered on Wednesday, swept the box office of 40 million US dollars on its first day, creating a film history. A new box office record for Tuesday's premiere. The super ability at the box office, and at the same time, won the praise of the media and the audience, which made "Spider-Man 2" a solid first footstep on the road of fame and fortune!

On Thursday, the release of "Tiger Brothers and Tigers" and "Fahrenheit 911" once again attracted media attention. As a result, "Tiger Brothers and Tigers" performed weakly, earning only $2 million, and Michael Moore once again confirmed that he is in the The outstanding talent in the documentary, "Fahrenheit 911", which only invested 6 million, swept the box office of 10 million US dollars on the first day of its premiere. The results are really staggering.

Relatively speaking, "The Notebook" and "Miss So White," which were released on Friday, were in a tough fight. On their premiere day, "The Notebook" won $11 million at the box office, showing everyone how well it was possible. Wen-Bell's unparalleled box office appeal: Even as a director, he is still no less shy. And "Miss So White" earned $10 million at the opening day box office, and the Waynes Brothers' comedy ability was once again recognized by the audience.

Just from the box office results on the day of the premiere, it can be seen that the competition in the North American box office charts this week is fierce. And when Saturday comes, all the films have a movie viewing experience, especially since the summer vacation has officially arrived, the audience entering the theater will increase rapidly. This is a good opportunity for all films to rise at the box office, but at the same time, it also means that the competition is getting tougher. Under the strength of "Spider-Man 2", the audience of other movies is bound to be diverted, which is an unavoidable situation.

With the release of "Spider-Man 2", everyone thinks that the champion of the North American box office chart this week has no suspense. The only thing worth paying attention to is which work is the runner-up. In the end, "Spider-Man 2" lived up to expectations. Relying on the crowd of fans, it exploded with amazing energy in the weekend and three days. It won the box office of 150 million US dollars in the first five days, and won the top spot in the North American box office chart.

The runner-up spot was unexpectedly occupied by the documentary "Fahrenheit 9/11", which made everyone stunned with a box office score of 39 million US dollars. Moreover, "Fahrenheit 911" also continued its good reputation at the Cannes Film Festival not long ago. The media and audience applauded, and the documentary was highly praised. It seems that it is not without reason that Michael Moore has become a "thorn" in the eyes of the White House.

The competition for the third runner-up position was extremely fierce. In the end, "The Notebook" earned US$28 million in the first three days of the first week of screening, narrowly surpassing the box office score of US$27.6 million for "Miss Haobai", only by an advantage of US$400,000. , won the third place in the North American box office chart in the fourth week of June.

"Miss So White" is followed by "Crazy Dodgeball" and "Happy Terminal", which were just released last week. The still-released "Harry-bōt and the Prisoner of Azkaban" and "Shrek 2" still performed well, ranking seventh and eighth on the list. Universal Pictures' "Tiger Brother Tiger Brother", which is trying to form a confrontation with "Love Notebook", is still limited by the subject matter. It only won 8.9 million box office results, and it is still ranked behind "Garfield". Last in the top ten at the box office.

This is the most competitive weekend since the beginning of the summer season in 2004, not only because "Spider-Man 2" showed a blockbuster style and swept the box office of 150 million US dollars. "The Prisoner of Class", "Shrek 2" and other works occupy a favorable position in the year-end box office ranking competition, and also because the competition between several new works is particularly fierce, and all of them have shown a high level.

"Fahrenheit 911", "The Notebook", and "Miss So White" all praised more than criticized in the media's comments, and so did the audience. Most of the public opinion said that the quality of these three films is satisfactory. If "Spider-Man 2" is added, the newly released works this week have shown a gratifying momentum. The amazing energy of "Fahrenheit 911" at the box office also made the public realize that the impact of the war is still indelible. The box office entanglement between "The Notebook" and "Miss So White" is even more unexpected, and it also makes people look forward to the form of the box office rankings next week.

In the week that followed, not many new films were released, and it was clear that most studios were avoiding the power of "Spider-Man 2". The three small-budget films "Ransom Dangerous", "Before Sunset" and "Little Cutie" are only screened in a small area, of which "Before Sunset" is the most watched.

In 1995, "Before the Sunrise" starred Ethan Hawke and Julie Delby. This love movie touched countless people and is still regarded as one of the most classic love movies. 's work did not get a happy ending, so today, nine years later, there is a sequel "Before Sunset", and Ethan Hawke and Julie Delby continue the front line. This small-budget film with an investment of only 2.4 million yuan has attracted a lot of attention because of the excellent previous work.

In addition, because of its pure and beautiful love, the "Notebook of Love" that is currently being released has attracted many people to compare it with "Before Sunrise" nine years ago. Now "Before Sunset" will also be released in the summer. The less competitive love movies have won the favor of the media again.

However, the three newly released films are all on-demand screenings, and naturally it is impossible to make a difference in the box office rankings, so this week's box office competition is still carried out on a few old films.

"Spider-Man 2" continued to be strong, and the box office of 60 million US dollars was enough to make it the champion of the North American box office chart. At this time, the cumulative box office of "Spider-Man 2" has reached 220 million US dollars. This achievement has been "Harry-Bōte and the Prisoner of Azkaban" has been released for five weeks. Although it is still a long way from the 410 million of "Shrek 2", it is enough to make Sony Columbia Pictures Industry breathed a sigh of relief.

Last week's "Fahrenheit 911" also continued its good performance. The box office of 29 million US dollars continued to be the runner-up. The cumulative box office of this documentary has bravely passed the 70 million mark, which is really fierce. .

Evan Bell's "The Notebook" fell less than 10 percent to $25.5 million at the box office, firmly holding the third place. Judging from this week's results, the slight decline has made the media realize that the good reputation of "Love Notebook" has begun to show its power, and its lasting ability at the box office is impressive. Now the cumulative box office has exceeded 56 million US dollars, and it is very hopeful to challenge 100 million mén threshold.

More importantly, Evan Bell's new album is about to be officially released. When the album "Two" was released, it made "Sniper Phone Booth" a dark horse, and it still has a lot of aftertaste, so what about this time? "Sniper Phone Booth" can become a dark horse because the quality of the movie itself is very good, so whether the quality of "The Notebook" is outstanding enough to allow it to continue to perform well at the box office under the strong appeal of Evan Bell Even a strong rebound? The media are watching.

Compared with the performance of the top three in terms of battery life at the box office, the rest of the films are slightly inferior. "Crazy Dodgeball" came back and won the box office of 15.9 million US dollars, "Miss So White" was slightly inferior, and "Happy Terminal" moved forward smoothly. These three films ranked fourth to first For the sixth place, the biggest difference is only one million dollars.

"Shrek 2" has a good reputation, surpassing "Harry-Bōte and the Prisoner of Azkaban", and it can still maintain strong competitiveness in the seventh week of its release. It seems that this year, DreamWorks will take advantage of Pixar. When we were in conflict with Disney, we held high the banner of counterattack.

As for Universal Pictures' "Tiger Brother and Tiger Brother", it is still low mí, the outcome is already divided, and no media is even willing to hype the old news of the confrontation between "Universal Pictures and Evan Bell", because the topic is really not enough.

A week of calm is brewing for the next week's storm, because next week, "King Arthur" with an investment of 120 million US dollars is about to strike strongly.
