Amidst the overwhelming praise online, Zhao Min decided to write a film review.
She was one of the best film critics.
Zhao Min thought for a moment and wrote a long film review.
“Hello, everyone. I’m Zhao Min. Today, I’m here to evaluate Lin Fan’s movie—Kung Fu.”
“As everyone knows, this is the first movie Lin Fan personally directed. Perhaps in the past, some people thought that this was a lousy movie. I can’t deny that I used to have such thoughts too. I also think that this is a lousy movie.”
“But after I watched this movie, I deeply felt that my previous thoughts were too stupid.”
“This is a very good movie. It’s also the best domestic movie I’ve seen in nearly ten years.”
“In terms of filming methods, the movie ‘Kung Fu Hustle’ is the best in the country. In the country, no director can use such filming methods. Every camera position, every angle of filming, be it long-range or close-range scenes, is beyond first-rate. Although there’s still a gap between it and Hollywood blockbusters in my heart, our domestic movies have already made a lot of progress from this point!”
“There are many martial arts moves in this movie. If you look carefully, you can see that all the martial arts moves in this movie have been carefully designed. They match the camera position perfectly and give people a very good feeling. I looked around and realized that Lin Fan had hired the most professional martial arts director. Teacher Hong, with Teacher Hong’s guidance, the martial arts moves in this television drama are really beyond imagination.”
“Third and most important thing I want to say is that whether it’s the filming method or the special effects production, they’re all quite top-notch. This way, the special effects of the movie have already far exceeded the level of the domestic special effects for 50 cents. Most importantly, the characters in this movie, whether it’s the landlord or landlady, the Evil God of Fire Cloud, the boss of the Axe Gang, and other ordinary characters, give them a clear persona that can make the audience remember them clearly.”
“Such a character design can only be done so well by Director Lin Fan. Furthermore, the actors acting in these roles have outstanding acting skills. As for the Fang’er played by Su Muqing, she’s a mute girl. She didn’t say anything the entire time. The best thing about Lin Fan is that he can perfectly portray a mute girl without words, allowing her image to be deeply imprinted in the hearts of the audience. This is the best thing about the entire movie. Silence beats sound!”
“The domestic action films are usually filled with serious and pious colors. However, Lin Fan’s movie is completely different from this serious genre. He uses his own way to remind the audience that film art not only shows nobility and sacrifice but also comedy is also one of its traditions.”
“It can be said that this movie is not inferior to Hollywood. After endless magical martial arts have been refurbished, they suddenly appeared in the movie, making people addicted to it. The creative ideas and unconstrained images are overwhelming!”
“This is the best movie I’ve seen in the past ten years. Therefore, being willing to write such a film review shows me Director Lin Fan’s foundation. Not only is he an outstanding actor, but he’s also an outstanding screenwriter and director!”
“I can also wish Director Lin Fan all the best here. I hope that I can see more of your better works in the future!”
After Zhao Min posted such a long list of reviews, the entire Internet exploded.
She was quite popular.
There were many people who liked her because she dared to take responsibility for her actions. When she evaluated a movie, it was from the bottom of her heart.
“Oh my god, am I seeing things? Even Zhao Min posted a film review. The movie ‘Kung Fu Hustle’ is really good. I also want to go to the cinema to take a look.”
“Could she be paid? Is the movie Kung Fu really that good? If it’s not, I’ll beat you to death when I come back.”
“Charge, charge, charge. I’m going to watch a movie. Even Zhao Min said it’s so good. I have to go take a look.”
“Who’s Lin Fan? Is he the main lead in The Legend of Sword and Fairy? Then we definitely have to watch it, hahaha.”
Soon, Zhao Min’s film review became the top trending topic on Weibo!
How to evaluate Lin Fan’s debut movie!
Then, the entire Internet exploded!
The next day, the box office earnings of ‘Kung Fu Hustle’ reached 32 million!
On the third day, the box office earnings of ‘Kung Fu Hustle’ exceeded 160 million!
All the cinemas in the country were filled!
Because there were too many people watching, and the screening rate was too low.
For example, ‘Kung Fu Hustle’ only broadcasted two shows a day in the cinema. Even if the two shows were full, only a few people could sit in them. Even if they were all full, the box office sales would not increase much.
Even so, in three days of premiere, the box office earnings had already exceeded 160 million.
Such results could be said to be unprecedented in domestic movies!
As for Mavericks Entertainment’s animation movie “I Am Really Invincible in Douluo”, the box office earnings in three days were only over 30 million.
However, Lin Fan’s movie created the history of domestic movies!
At the headquarters of Wanda Cinema, Li Zhengyi was dumbfounded when he saw this data.
“F*ck… f*ck…”
“Every cinema is full. The attendance rate for the movie ‘Kung Fu Hustle’ has reached 100%!”
“It can be said that the cinemas all over the country are already full…”
“Three days of box office sales of 160 million, and this number is still rising. This, this, this… what level is it going to rise to?”
Li Zhengyi had never expected that Lin Fan’s movie would really become popular!
It was a very popular one!
A domestic movie with a 100% attendance rate had never appeared before!
Of course, the most important reason was that the screening rate was too low.
Li Zhengyi felt that he had made such a stupid mistake.
In that case, how much money would he lose?
If the screening rate did not improve, the box office would not improve either.
If this continued, CEO Wang might call and demand an explanation.
At that moment, Li Zhengyi made a decision.
Lin Fan’s movie was already so popular. If he continued to be stubborn, he would be a fool.
“Contact cinemas all over the country immediately and increase the screening rate of ‘Kung Fu Hustle’ to 30%!” Li Zhengyi said.
In reality, Li Zhengyi was also a little excited.
It had been many years since such a good movie appeared in a domestic movie.
Li Zhengyi felt more admiration for Lin Fan.
Some people had once questioned Lin Fan’s level and said that Lin Fan could become popular because he was starring in a television drama with Xia Wanqiu.
This movie didn’t have Lin Fan or Xia Wanqiu, but it was still popular!
This was Lin Fan’s true level as a director.
Even if Lin Fan didn’t participate personally and no celebrities came to attract attention, Lin Fan’s movies would still be popular all over the Internet!
“Lin Fan, you’re really too strong. You can become popular by filming television dramas and movies. I, Li Zhengyi, have never admired anyone in my life but you.”
“Lin Fan, from now on, the cinema will open its doors for you. Let’s see how far you can go!”
“Add the screening times immediately. Don’t hold anything back. Adjust everything!” Li Zhengyi said.
The entire cinema started operating.
There were also some other cinemas that increased their screening times.
It could be said that movies with a screening rate of 30% were almost rare!
Li Zhengyi directly took out the highest screening rate he could give for ‘Kung Fu Hustle’!
When Lin Fan received the notice, he smiled.
Then, from now on, it was time for everyone to see how far ‘Kung Fu Hustle’ could go!
