Chapter 2485

On November 13, "lobster" was officially launched in North America, with a single box office of 150000 US dollars, easily creating the highest single Museum record in 2015, and easily ranking among the top 15 in the list of film history. This performance can be regarded as good news for any work.

However, the news media is very low-key, and even some... Disappointed, because this is blue!

On the one hand, the whole of North America is cheering and celebrating that "Jurassic world" has become the first work in North American film history to break through 800 million US dollars, and Langley has once again written a heavy ink in the annals of history; On the other hand, the "drunken ballad" in 2013 and the "crackling drummer" in 2014 have created history, and the box office of a single Museum has broken through the threshold of 200000 US dollars, which is also a glory in history.

By contrast, the $150000 single box office of lobster is not so good. There is really not much to celebrate, just like... Regular operation.

Is it unfair for other films to say that "the 14th highest single box office in film history" is just a routine operation? What about other movies? How should other works deal with themselves? But the reality is so cruel, because this is lanli, people always expect lanli to create more myths.

"The box office of lobster is not more than that of pop drummer? Bad comment

"No upward curve for three consecutive years? What's going on? "

"Shouldn't it be the first live action movie in North American film history to break the box office of 300000? Funny. "

"Oh, is this a sign of the fading of the invincible aura of blue gift?"

"Didn't make history? What's going on? "

"I can't write the headlines, ha ha."

The sound of banter on the social network is not so much schadenfreude or downfall, but more a kind of prank. Once again, it makes people feel the flow of lanli. The flow of "not being present but being present" creates a topic for "lobster".

Apart from the hustle and bustle of ridicule, the box office of "lobster" is indeed very gratifying, and it easily occupies a seed rank in the first stage of the award season. Whether it is the reputation and final award of Cannes Film Festival in the early stage, or the reputation strength of blue Lee and Sisyphus film, it has reserved a seat for "lobster" in advance, As for where and how far we can go in the awards season, there is no way to know.

New York point show has officially started the lobster awards season, and Sisyphus film has also set sail for this year's awards season. The following "focus", "wild Hunter" and "Carol" will also be on the stage one after another. The overall momentum has gradually gathered, and there is a sense of vastness.

Meanwhile, word of mouth in North America has been lifted.

After Cannes, "lobster" has also won praise from film critics in North America, even better than expected.

The first batch of 48 media gave comments, including 44 favorable comments, four medium comments and zero poor comments.

Although this is the normal configuration of "lanli's works", the "lobster" with zero negative comments has easily become the focus of attention. Compared with the slightly controversial reputation of Cannes Film Festival, the overall praise of the film in the North American market is higher than expected, and the performance is excellent.

Four of them are very interesting.

"Guardian", 60 points, "the story opens an interesting time in a wonderful and strange way, full of charming and unique charm; However, when the narrative reaches a certain point in the middle part, it seems that it suddenly loses inspiration and creativity, and then it begins to fill in absurd and boring dog blood drama fragments, and finally presents a boring and simple comic theme: the transformation of human beings into animals, literally. Hall's efforts have not been able to change the overall situation. "

"Los Angeles Times", 60 points, "it's true that 'lobster' is a work suitable for creating topics, spreading on the Internet and editing short stories. It is like a mirror reflecting the loneliness and fear of modern life. However, the efforts in the second half of the film are thin and fragmented, and the drama fails to push the absurd feeling of the first half to the depth, Finally, it came to a self smart but boring ending. The only surprise still comes from Langley Hall - no surprise? It was a bit of a surprise

"San Francisco Chronicle", 58 points, "lance moss lacks the profound directing skills to control the complicated philosophical thinking, and also lacks the scheduling and editing ability of horror movies. A movie built on an anti Utopian inspiration, however, its audio-visual language is mediocre and boring. One idea and one idea seems to be all he has. The performances of all the actors are worth appreciating. "

In addition, there was a middle review from entertainment weekly, which also gave the lowest score of the first batch of reviews, 50 points. "Compared with the film which is joyful and hugging, this is more of a disgusting and irritating work. No matter what level of communication and discussion the work presents, I hope I have never seen this film before."

Interestingly, although Entertainment Weekly did not comment on the content of the film, the final score is still medium rather than poor.

It is worthy of reference.

On the whole, the film critics in North America are basically in line with the Cannes period, and the criticism and criticism are still concentrated on the second half of the "lobster". Even though Langley and oggs work together to adjust the role and plot, they still can not completely get rid of the story framework, causing a lot of controversy——

In the final analysis, lanli is still an actor, he can appreciate the script, analyze the role, in the actual operation process, he is not a screenwriter after all.

However, in addition to the four medium reviews, the frenzy of 44 reviews was the main component of the first batch of comments. Even the media that first watched the film in Cannes, different film critics wrote their own comments for the first time, and the mainstream media expressed their views again.

"New York Times", 100 points, "who can imagine that this is actually a love movie?" Lobster also awakens us to realize that not all love can have a perfect ending. Langley Hall's excellent comedy performance proves that he can master any kind of role

"American weekly", 100 points, "what will happen when Wes Anderson and Franz Kafka meet?" lobster "gives the perfect answer. In addition, it also integrates a little George Orwell: wonderful, weird, humorous, ironic, profound, light and cold."

"Hollywood Reporter", 100 points, "if you start to think seriously about singleness, I'll guess you just left the cinema, and then you can see a whole new world - it's far more than the laughter that the latest Kevin Hart comedy movie can bring. Can you imagine that the hero is Larry hall?"

"Variety show", 100 points, "cruelty and humor coexist harmoniously like tableware in a drawer. Lance moss injects a little horror and fear into the film, and injects a little violence emotional violence and physical violence into the cold images. The film always wanders between humor and terror, And the invisible reflection can give goose bumps on the back. Langley Hall's performance reminds us of his "drunken folk."

"Vanity Fair", 100 points, "who can imagine that the biggest surprise of the whole film is lanli Hall - the actor who created countless peaks has once again brought a rare performance, which is introverted and delicate, light and profound, humorous and funny. His performance perfectly fits with the style of the film, which is cold and depressing but has a profound aftertaste, Let the unique charm of lanli hall be magnified to the extreme. "

"Play list", 100 points, "in the final analysis, those strange, cold, alienated, serious fragments all collide together, creating a wonderful humorous comedy effect. Before the thinking about the film itself surges up, you will be amazed at the wonderful and moving of actor CASS. The wonderful performance undoubtedly makes lance moss play a super high level. As for the later reflection, that is what happened after watching the film. "

"Chicago Tribune", 100 points, "it seems that the topic about Langley hall can be stopped for a moment - because he is still the best part of the film, which is enough to wake up the good memories of Buster Keaton, and at the same time infuse his delicate understanding. Who can refuse Langley hall? It's the same with lobster. It's suggested that every marriage supporter and single person go to the cinema to watch the movie. You can find what you like

Full marks. Full marks. Full marks.

"Lobster" once again ushered in the tide of full marks, the unanimous praise makes people deeply feel the wonderful of the film, and it seems to show the sweeping posture of blue Lee once again; However, this is only a part of it. Of the 44 positive comments, only eight have full marks, which is not a high proportion.

In other words, "lobster" has successfully won the love of film critics, but its overall momentum and reputation are still not as good as "drunken folk" and "pop drummer".

Among the 36 positive comments, the main scores were all between 80 and 99, with 27 comments; There were also nine comments with scores ranging from 60 to 79, three of which scored below 70. Although they were highly praised, their scores were not high.

Overall, "lobster" continues the trend and state of Cannes Film Festival. Finally, the North American media comprehensive review is based on 85 points, which is still considered as the most worthy and necessary movie of the year.

"Maybe it's not the best work of Langley hall, but it's one of Langley's best works to watch." The evaluation from the "new Yorker" is the most pertinent. Compared with the "drunken folk" and "pop drummer", the "lobster" is indeed more approachable and more easily accepted by the general public.

This also means that this year's award season is bound to see the figure of blue ceremony again, and Sisyphus film has joined the war early.
