""Scream-", ¡ï¡ï (out of four stars, initial 6 stars), Roger Ebert
1024203
"Scary" understands the concept of parody, but not the concept of satire. It opens up several hit movies (The Omen, The Matrix, The Matrix, The Mile, The Ring) and recycles scenes from them, from start to finish. A parody translation (aIata, Albert's own word), but it absorbs those movies rather than picking them up. A classic problem is that the movie's satire is no smarter or more meaningful than "Humor Magazine," because "Humor Magazine" struggled to find the vulnerability to laugh, while "Scream" just wants to quote and fool.
This movie is full of famous and semi-famous faces, although only two are funny. That's the beginning of the film, when Jenny McCarthy and Pamela Anderson are doing brainless blonde antics to the limit, while their push-up bras are doing the same thing in another area.
Other guest stars include: Queen Latifah, Eddie Griffin, William Forsyth, Peter Boyle, Macy Gray, George Carlin, Jay Lu, Mavp and Rice Leigh Nelson, the olive tree of spoofs, plays the president. But what's the use? This movie was also directed by David Tucker, who co-created with his brother Jerry and Jim Abrahams the brilliant "The Sky", which more or less created the spoof genre.
Maybe the problem is not with him, maybe the problem is that this theme is over and completely dead. The Scream idea seemed like a new and interesting direction¡ªit was clever satire¡ªbut the Scream idea is back, and it's like it's its own crop circle, its arrow Always pointing to itself. ¡±¡»
If I had to use one word to describe this film review by Albert, it would be depressing.
You can feel the mood between the lines, bad, depressed and desperate. He can't see any future for the spoof genre. There are so many celebrity guest stars and the originator of spoofs as directors. The cast is so powerful but there is nothing funny. Maybe The rookies laughed a lot, but he only laughed once or twice in the whole game.
He was so frustrated with this situation that he only gave it 6 stars at first. Later, he probably thought it was harsh and raised it to 2 stars.
Although "Scary Scream-" was a huge success. 100 million in North American box office, but in the eyes of this film critic god: "TeureIaeudl-Teudlad"
Prank is dead
It¡¯s not even funny with that lineup, how else can it be funny?
But now
""Wedding Day is Coming",¡ï¡ï¡ï¡ï,Roger Ebert
62264
In today's era, "Wedding Day is Coming" is a great spoof movie, and it is also an excellent masterpiece in the entire history of spoof movies.
Its story is not the popular way to smoke hit movies, nor is it a hodgepodge of fragments. It walks on perhaps the most correct traditional path, telling a new comedy story and adding spoof moments, clever irony, and easy-to-use The parody and clever camera techniques make it so confident and funny
I like Ye Wei and all the aspects he brings to the film. This talented 6-year-old boy not only produced a masterpiece, but also gave a new light to the spoof theme. This subject is not dead, but there are too few people willing to be original and there are too many predators.
The story begins with a couple getting ready to get married, but the preparations for the wedding did not go smoothly, which made Kana Heshree-Mato want to give up. And the wedding god (Ye Wei) who is responsible for human weddings comes to the human world to help them. Their performances are exaggerated and outstanding. Ye Wei's performance is the most amazing. His understanding of irony has reached an exquisite level. From the first time he appeared, he controlled the scene.
I laughed from the beginning to the end. Its Easter egg is another parody of the classic lines of "The Unprecedented Flying". A stout man named Shirley, just like it all comes at your fingertips. Creating laughter can be very simple. It does not require many famous guest faces. It only has two, Nicolas Cage and Tom Hanks (dubbing), and their scenes are extremely interesting.
We usually laugh for one of several reasons: love, sympathy, superiority, self-deprecation, humiliation, or unexpectedness. Spoof and satirical movies use a sense of superiority the most, and the characters' stupidity makes people enjoy it. However, "Wedding Day is Coming" uses love and unexpectedness the most. They are both very clever and hit the soft spots of laughter just right. Incredibly, there are some touching passages in the film that make its laughs even more meaningful. All these make it different from parody translation, full of surprises one after another.
With "Wedding Day Is Coming", the subject of spoofs suddenly looks as young as a teenager. Maybe only young people full of whimsical ideas can shoot this kind of subject well. Maybe it's just that Ye Wei is too special. His glimpse of genius in spoof movies casts new glory.
I like like like thisProdigy, I love, love, love this movie, "Wedding Day is Coming" is suitable for everyone, as long as you want to have a laugh. ¡±¡»
Full score four stars
People from all walks of life who read this movie review in front of their computers were shocked. How long has it been since Roger Ebert gave a spoof movie four stars? The answer is seemingly never
"Scary" and "Austin Powers" both have - stars, "The Greatest Hits", which is revered as the originator, also has a - star, and "The Fist" has a B6 star; in terms of classic comedies, "My Big Fat Greek Wedding", "Meet the Father-in-law" is also just a star
Most of his 4-star list is for literary films, but there are also commercial films, such as "Signs", which has an overall reputation of 4 stars; the 33-year-old Chinese director Lin Yibin's debut "Good Luck Tomorrow" has 4 stars; foreign films 4 stars for the comedy "Song of the Show", (he later gave 4 stars to the satirical comedy "Borat")
Why does "Wedding Day is Coming" receive 4 stars? A surprise in the withering era? Ye Wei's age? The touching moment of the film? Not a parody concept, but a satire concept? Caused by temporary happiness?
No one knows exactly what the old man is thinking, there are too many possibilities, and he has always been an emotional person, sometimes even to the extreme. The film critics are praising him, he can be called bad, and the film critics can call him bad and he can be praised. , so he is deeply loved by the people.
Of course he was happy, look at how many words of praise he used that were almost disgusting:
They said "The Wedding is Coming" is great, excellent, most correct, smart, brilliant said Ye Wei is talented, amazing, a genius, a prodigy
The old man was obviously not just happy, but excited. He thought a subject was dead, but suddenly it was resurrected and he laughed from beginning to end.
Like, like, like, use three Lts in a row to express your mood at this time
Maybe after a while, when he calms down, he will adjust the star rating of "Wedding Day is Coming", as he often does.
But now, "Wedding Day is Coming" gets 4 stars
"Holy Jesus, Holy Jesus"
In front of the computer screen, Brian's eyes almost popped out of his head, and he kept mumbling with emotion. He read this movie review several times, and then looked at the website address, vrt. cm is not wrong, this is on Roger Ebert¡¯s official website date 62264 is not April Fool¡¯s Day, this is real
"Unbelievable things continue to happen, "Wedding Day is Coming" captured the heart of the film critic god, and the genius Ye Wei got his approval and got his two thumbs up
? 6 years old, only 6 years old, what the hell is this child prodigy for?
Tom Tykwer started making short films when he was 11 years old. He started making films at the age of 13. He made "Run Lola Run" at the age of 33. Others called him a "movie doll". Spielberg also started making short films at the age of 11 and started making short films at the age of 6. For his first feature film, others called him a movie prodigy; Tim Burton, Kevin Smith, Steven Soderbergh, Peter Jackson they all have been called prodigies.
But from now on, sorry, guys, the movie prodigy can only refer to one person, and that person¡¯s name is Ye Wei
Ye Wei has changed the meaning of the term movie prodigy. A guy who made "Dance of Angels" at the age of 15 and remade "Wedding Day" at the age of 6 is a god.
And the agent of this top prodigy is Brian Burrell
"Hahahahaha" Brian laughed heartily. He won. For him, this battle has been won.
Because regardless of the box office, Ye Wei has received unanimous praise from film critics, and his reputation as a genius has been firmly established. If Hanks invests in his "Little Miss Sunshine" project, there will be no negative comments from the outside world. They The initial goal has been achieved.
Isn¡¯t it? Take a look at the 7 existing movie reviews. They are all good. Although two of them gave B4 points, who cares? There are four stars from Albert, shining on everything.
In such a moment of victory, Brian would certainly not miss one thing. He sent a text message to Lovett on his mobile phone:
"Hi, I have some good news for you. "My Wedding Day" has been praised by film critics. Roger Ebert said that Ye Wei is a talented prodigy. HABAj My friends, I really want to say thank you, thank you. For your help, thank you for giving up Ye Wei."
Lovett, do you know? You gave up a genius, a future superstar, a huge treasure
Looking at the text message on the phone screen, Lovett's face turned extremely ugly, as if he was about to die from poisoning. He deleted the text message and looked at Albert's movie review on the computer screen. His teeth were so full that they were about to break. Four stars? This old guy is really an old fool who is sick and dizzy.
What can we do now? He took off his glasses, wiped his eyes and pinched the bridge of his nose. He had to admit that he was really slipped out by that kid
With that kid¡¯s story, image, eloquence and the team behind him, he knew that Ye Weicheng?¡°American Idol¡± is not some delusion.
Suddenly at this time, the cell phone rang. Lovett was so frightened that he jumped in fright. When he saw it was Tracy Brennan, he breathed a sigh of relief and answered the call: "What?"
"You know it." Tracy's voice was filled with deep anger. "We have all been fools. Our previous trouble was to help our enemy Lovett. This is your perfect plan. This is what you said." Wei is definitely not able to satisfy the film critics. This is what you said about Ye Wei not being a genius. Are you crazy or is Albert crazy? Tell me?"
Lovett was silent, unable to say what he wanted to say, "That's what movies are like"
"The person most affected by this incident is not me. Sborrel and I are not at the point of life and death. I also have Lindsay Lohan."
Tracy laughed as she spoke: "Haha, but what about you? Will Bruce Willis fire you? And then? You know that as soon as this matter is publicized in the circle, the stars will lose sight of you. If you don¡¯t have confidence, the company will not recruit you into the partner management, and your power will disappear quickly because you messed up everything.¡±
"" Lovett was still speechless. He knew that Tracy was not scolding. Michael Ovitz, one of the founders of CAAR and the most famous agent in the past, made a mistake and left CAA to join Disney and screwed up. , after being kicked out again, what power do you have now?
¡°What can I do?¡± he asked in a husky voice.
"No, we lost this time. You should try your best to stabilize Willis, otherwise you will lose nothing."
When Tracy hung up the phone, Arnold Rifkin called immediately. As soon as Lovett answered, he heard that annoying voice: "It's over. Roger Ebert gave that movie four stars now." Its Rotten Tomatoes rating is 100 Lovett, and you know what that means? It was originally ours, and Cheyenne Enterprises¡¯s was yours"
Lovett's anger suddenly exploded: "You idiot producer, try to accuse me again. When I had the opportunity to invite Sam Jadez to direct "Little Miss Daylight", you were not excited? What did you say, who Is it Ye Wei? Without my connections to connect you, you¡¯d make a bullshit movie. You¡¯d better shut up now.¡±
"Hahaha" Rifkin laughed angrily, "I can shut up, but will Bruce shut up? When he gets angry at you, remember to tell him to shut up too."
??Beep, the call was hung up, and the study fell into deathly silence.
After an unknown amount of time, Lovett moved slowly, as if his whole body was weak, and took out a small bottle of anti-anxiety sedatives from the drawer of his desk, poured a few pills and drank it with water.
However, in the past, there were quick-acting pills, but today they didn't work. After a long time, he still couldn't calm down and was still restless.
"Ye Wei, how could this be possible? How could this happen? Ye Wei, how could it"
"It was once thought that the spoof genre was dead, but Ye Wei announced to us new vitality, great fun, and classic movies." ¡ª¡ª44 Richard Rope, "Albert and Rope"
¡°The best of parody and satire, Ye Wei¡¯s stunning direction and performance make everything great.¡± - B4 Jonathan Foreman, The New York Times
"There are so many wonderful passages, so much sincerity, I can't believe these are happening in a spoof film." - B4 Moira MacDonald, "The Seattle Times"
"It's sincere films like "Wedding Day" that keep us from losing interest in movies. Smart spoofs, brilliant satire, and brilliant VIY" - 44 Scott Foundas, "Los Angeles Weekly"
¡°A feast of comedy that may create a new trend of parody, the 6-year-old child prodigy handed over perfect report cards.¡± ¡ª¡ª46 Bill Miller, "Arizona Republic"

"Austin Powers" scored 0 points, "Scream" scored 62 points, "Scream -" - points; the originator of "The Detective". 6 points, "Unprecedented and Unprecedented Flying All Over the Sky" points B.
Although there are not many users in the 200s, and most of them are fans??, but with the support of film critics, how can the score drop? Maybe it will rise even more
The VIY official website, VIY blog and other places are also busy. The messages on the message board are rising like a tide. Even the traffic of the HPIY website is soaring, which makes Chen Nuo shout and make Lev and the others extremely excited. Every time they go online, New searches on Ye Wei will reveal new reports about Ye Wei.
AnnaSofia laughed and shouted: "Yi, you are a star, you became a star earlier than me, haha"
On this day, many traditional daily media have reported on it. For example, the film version of the Los Angeles Times also gave a 46-point praise. Film critic Kenneth Turan wrote: "Obviously interesting, clever irony, Ye Wei¡¯s talent is amazing, he is a humor bomb and a movie prodigy.¡±
"Prodigy, the consensus of film critics"
Sensational Even if "The Day After Tomorrow" has been screened at midnight in B6 theaters, even if "Pop Godmother" and "Soul Dreams" have also appeared, nothing can take away the page that Ye Wei and "Wedding Is Coming" should have, nothing can be snatched away Take public attention away from child prodigies.
As night falls amidst the hustle and bustle, the storytelling game begins again at the bustling dinner table at Spielberg¡¯s house.
"Dad, the real-life story we told before seems to have an ending."
Sasha looked full of energy. As someone who supports VIY, she looked at her brothers with pride in her eyes and continued: "Ye Wei's "The Wedding Is Coming" premiered yesterday, and the film critics said it was good at this stage. The ending is that he will become truly famous and the whole world will love him."
When she told some details, there was a low sigh around the dining table. Theo and Sawyer looked at each other. That person was so powerful that they couldn't say anything.
"Dad, am I right?" Sasha asked with a smile.
Spielberg smiled and nodded: "Ye Wei's upward trend is indeed very strong now. I am actually a little surprised that he can achieve this result. But some people are like this. Give him a chance, and he can do better. There are so many more things on your mind.¡±
"It's unbelievable to be 6 years old." Kate Capshaw also lamented, "When I was 6 years old I don't remember what I was doing."
"I'm making a movie," Spielberg said.
"Dad, you didn't get four stars from Roger Ebert at that time." Sasha chuckled, "So I think he's really cool. Tomorrow night, I'm going to go to the theater to see it. Which one of you will come with me?" Go?"
¡°I¡¯ll go, I¡¯ll go.¡± Young Mikala and Destri were both very interested.
Brentwood, Ye¡¯s living room.
On the sofa, Ye Haogen was holding a laptop and reading new movie reviews, whether they were from film critics or netizens. Then he saw another one. When he saw it, he laughed and read aloud: ""The Wedding Is Coming" It¡¯s so fun that you can still laugh out loud after watching it several times. It¡¯s wonderful.¡±
Gu Qiao, who was looking at a document next to her, couldn't help but smile. She was not happy because of the film review, but because of her husband's appearance, "You really seem to be possessed."
"Yes, I am." Ye Haogen's middle-aged face was full of joy, "This is our son's score. Can't I take a few more glances? I'm surprised why you don't look at it."
"I want to wait until it becomes clearer before I look at it." After all, Gu Qiao is a quiet person, and he is thinking about something in his heart: "Actually, nowis there some hope at the box office?"
The couple didn¡¯t talk much about this in front of Ye Wei, but they naturally had expectations, especially now that the movie reviews were so good, they couldn¡¯t help but think about the box office, debt, living expenses, and tuition fees. At the end of the year, it's time for Duoduo to go to school. Whether it's kindergarten at the expensive Berkeley Hall School or a public school, it really depends on watching "Wedding Day is Coming".
"Well, I think" Ye Haogen continued to read the movie reviews. After the disastrous failure last time, he did not dare to be blindly optimistic: "Probably, it should be 1 million? I guess it can be."
Gu Qiao silently looked around at this place called home, thinking about something and said: "Haogen, if it doesn't work, we will sell this house and move to a cheaper place. What happened before will not happen again."
Knowing what she was referring to, Ye Haogen nodded, "I will take care of myself."
"Mom, daddy" Duoduo's cry suddenly came from far and near, and there was the sound of people going down the stairs. Soon she ran to the living room and cried: "Brother robbed my candy and won't let me in." "Playing in his room." Toto barked a few times, as if to say, "I saw it all, it's true."
During the day, Ye Wei spent the whole day on campus. The ninth grade was coming to an end. He had completed his studies in academic courses, physical education, art, etc. Even the "cuttlefish" punishment he was punished by the old principal was still there. I said I can't let it goFree, must be completed before the graduation ceremony on June 6th.
Starting from the next school year, he will go to the high school department. He is a real high school student.
Ninth grade has been an incredible school year.
Standing in the bedroom, Ye Wei scanned the surroundings, which had a completely different appearance. Many things were missing, and many more things were added.
His eyes saw several new trophies in the trophy cabinet over there, the Ye Wei Award from the film festival, the best film, the best director, and the NVP top scorer in the football league.
I also saw the treasures in the gift cabinet next to me, full of the friendship of friends. My eyes stopped on the Cook lens, and I thought of that breeze-swept night, and of Lily
Ye Weizheng was lost in thought when his cell phone rang suddenly. He took it out and saw that the caller was Gary Goetzman. His heart skipped a beat and he took a deep breath, knowing what the call was.
It¡¯s almost B o¡¯clock in the evening. The box office numbers for yesterday¡¯s two Thursday shows and three Friday midnight shows should be calculated.
"The quality of movie reviews and box office are not directly linked. There is no absolute for a movie. Box office is box office."
Is there a feeling like rising and falling with the wind? But I know that I will eventually fly freely to the highest cloud. Ye Wei pressed the button and said, "Good evening, Gary.
"Weige, good news" Gozman's excited voice immediately spread, "The box office of yesterday and today's midnight show is out, oh my God, both yesterday's two shows were full, with 2450 taken in."
Ye Wei's heartbeat couldn't help but accelerate. The 80 viewers didn't charge 36 yuan because of discounts, children's discounts, etc. What about today?
"Today's three shows also had a great performance. They collected a total of 970 yuan, excluding the daytime shows. The total box office exceeded 10,000. The attendance of the first show tonight was also full. It exceeded 10,000 on the first day. You have no idea. There is no doubt that IPC has just communicated with me. If the current trend continues, there will be no problem in 100 theaters in the second week. They will start busy arranging theaters and making copies, haha."
Ye Wei stood there in a daze, as if an electric current was flowing through his body, and he heard three sentences clearly: Breaking 10,000 on the first day, no problem in 100 theaters in the second week, we did it
"Young man, you are creating a miracle. I can't give you random numbers, but based on my years of production experience, "Wedding Day is Coming" will have at least 300,000 box office. This is an extremely conservative number. You You know, an extremely conservative number, young man."
"Ohthank you, I understand." Ye Wei gradually couldn't hear what Gozman was saying. Until he ended the call, he still looked stunned and his eyes were a little red.
He blinked it. These eyes had seen the cruelty of reality, the beauty of dreams, the darkness of late night, and the light of dawn.
Looking at the bookcase by the window, Ye Wei walked over. The multi-layered bookcase, which was as tall as one person, was filled with old and new movie books. There were all kinds of books. He flipped through Robert McKee's "Story" ", read "Understanding Movies" by Louis Gianetti, and "The Hero with a Thousand Faces" by Joseph Campbell
Putting it down, he flipped through the original materials of "Wedding Day is Coming" in the cabinet next to him, pages and pages of scripts, storyboards one after another, and then flipped through the files he compiled and analyzed on classic spoof movies, "Unprecedented and Unprecedented" "The pattern, laughter, and structure of "Austin Powers", "Scary"
You have not let everyone down, nor have you let yourself down.
Your hard work will never be in vain.
Ye Wei looked at the original materials, scripts, and storyboards of "Dance of Angels" again, and gently touched the wrinkles on each piece of paper with his fingers. Scenes from the past came to his mind, and he suddenly remembered it so clearly. That day at the Ivy Restaurant, why did I talk to the four Willis father and daughter, and why did I put so much thought into every word I said?
He thought of joy, he thought of sadness, and he thought of faces that either loved or hated. He suddenly felt at a loss, his soul was trembling, and large tears fell uncontrollably from his eyes, hitting the paper in his hand, blurring them. He wiped out a drop of the portrait, but more fell down.
He put the "Dance of Angels" storyboard back, held back his tears and walked to the window, looking out at the bright moon and starry night sky. More and more tears flowed, his mouth trembled, and he cried silently.
You once fell down, but you stood up again.
You once couldn't see the light and were swallowed by darkness, but you found a new fire and set out again to find your dreams.
Maybe the future will not be smooth, maybe this is just a sweet dream, but at this moment, your soul is bathing in the most beautiful sunshine.
A dazzling fire is burning, bursting out with amazing power, and can explode at any time. That's me.
GO, GO, GO, VIY to the whole world, bloom your light and let people exclaim, VIY is here
