~: Two hundred and eighty-four - ninety-five years of fierce competition

Popular recommendation:

Early on Friday morning, when Wayne led the creative team and flew to New York to start a promotional roadshow, various newspapers and media made large-scale reports on the two films that premiered at the same time last night.

Some of these reports promote soft articles, the results of public relations of film companies, and authoritative media from a neutral perspective. Well-known film critics in different cities have also begun to trumpet the films they support.

"On May 15, 1995, that is, last night, after waiting for several months, "Batman: War Hour" directed by Wayne finally premiered at the Chinese Theater in Los Angeles. After more than two hours of watching The movie gave me a great shock. Before that, I felt that Batman was far away from me, just a character in the comics. After watching the movie, I felt that Batman was very close to me.

After watching the movie, my biggest feeling is that Batman is actually an ordinary person who has been tempered and eventually grown into Batman. Yes, what I want to say is that, in fact, each of us can be "Batman", and Batman is the person we dream of being.

The biggest influence of this film on me is that I began to believe that an ordinary person has infinite possibilities, never set limits for himself, never stop breaking through, surpassing and conquering himself, and never fear the unknown world.

We can get hurt a lot, we can go through adversity, we can even have huge setbacks and blows, just like Bruce Wayne. But all of this, as long as it doesn't destroy us, will make us grow rapidly, become stronger, and ultimately make us. Don't look back, don't dwell on the hardships we've been through. Looking forward, walking forward, rushing forward, this is the best redemption.

In the night after watching "Batman: Hour of War", I will think of the past thirty years of my life. Whenever I achieve a new achievement without telling anyone around me, I feel that I am Batman. .

No one knows who I am, no one knows what great things I have done, I just know myself.

If you don't have any plans to watch the movie, I highly recommend you watch this movie. It's an epic full of darkness on the surface, and the story is also full of social analysis. A positive video that conveys very good spiritual energy!

There is no shortage of stories in the film, and there are also popular scenes that most fans love. This will be a movie viewing choice for everyone! "

----- "Los Angeles Times" Kenneth - Turan.

Not only Kenneth Turan, Todd McCarthy, as a local film critic in Los Angeles, also sang praises for the film in the column of The Hollywood Reporter, attracting more fans.

The title of his review was, "A never-ending battle!"

"Wayne Greenberg has succeeded in bringing a comic book character to the real world, and the theme of the film is "fear", and Batman is more of the person we dream of being. Whydowefall? Becausecauseickourselvesup!

Yes, why did it fall? Because that's how you learn to stand up! Although the core of the film is full of dark styles, the story it tells is a chicken soup for the soul that is rarely seen in reality.

In fact, many places in the movie express a point of view: that heroes are not born heroes. The movie gives me more of a sense of reality. Batman will also train, work hard, improve his speed, and insist on doing a lot of push-ups every day. own emotions...

Everyone has something to fear and go through a lot of adversity. NeverNevergiveup Because we are full of infinite possibilities, never stop persevering, don't stop surpassing and conquering ourselves, look forward, don't need to be entangled in the past suffering, the important thing is the future.

Wayne Greenberg ditched a lot of the big shots, and the result was obviously pretty good, it's a movie for teens, and if these kids can get anything out of it, it's going to be the greatest asset of their lives ! "

Not only was the film critics collectively recommended, Bella Grant also published a column report from the other side of the film, but her main object of praise was not the director, but the film's leading actor Christian Bale.

"During the first hour of the film, the film explores Bruce Wayne's backstory in full, with no cape and no fight scenes. Still, the pace never slows and the story is so unexpected and engaging.

In this way, we really get a sense of who Bruce Wayne is, a quality that no film of the past has ever captured, including Tim Burton's first two films. We see what drives him, what makes him this iconic crime fighter, and the meaning behind the mask.

Of course, to help viewers get to know Bruce Wayne, it doesn't hurt to have a talented lead as Christian Bale.

Bale has become one of the most talented actors of his generation, and he brings that talent to the top here, playing the darkest of all superheroes.

If you break down the Batman, Bruce Wayne characters, you'll see that it's basically three characters: Wayne's Batman, behind the mask; Wayne's public persona as the billionaire playboy; and the real, contemplative Bruce Wayne.

Bale played all three characters perfectly, shaping them well enough to make it clear that they're still the same person.

It is worth mentioning that there are hardly many special effects composite shots in the movie, and even the shots of Batman standing on the top of a tall building overlooking the city were shot by the actor himself. In the actual viewing experience, this kind of real shot looks much more comfortable and more convincing than the special effect synthesis.

But don't think the movie will be too serious and boring because of Wayne's realism! Yes, Gotham looks too dark and dirty to feel like it's a fantasy world, but Batman retains that unmistakable sense of fun that's only found in comic book movies from the start.

We laugh and fear the villain and cheer the hero as he puts his life on the line to defeat evil and save the city. "

Not only "Batman: War Hour" has a lot of publicity here, but also on 20th Century Fox. The famous film critics Roger Albert and David Denby are also in the "Chicago Sun" and "Chicago Sun". The New Yorker's column also recommended Die Hard 3 with a long film review.

When the publicity competition became fierce, the two sides also agreed and began to pour dirty water on each other. Even the channels they chose were similar, that is, the gossip tabloids that people love and hate.

Warner Bros. smeared Bruce Wesley's private life with his life, and constantly led public opinion to contraband. Fox also criticized the director Wayne, and directed public opinion to the director's psychological problems.

Counting down the films that Wayne filmed after his debut, almost all of them are inseparable from the dark core. There are various speculations that he has a mental illness. Criticizing such films that over-explore the dark side will only lead to bad youth and cause more social negative. energy.

1995 was the year when the gods fought. From the beginning of the Oscar competition between "Forrest Gump" and "The Shawshank Redemption" at the beginning of the year, everyone has been sensitively aware that the cultural industry has ushered in the spring.

Whether it is the film industry, the recording industry or the game industry, almost from the beginning of 1995, there has been an outbreak of competition. Even the Metaverse VR, which was popular two decades later, appeared in the hands of Nintendo this year, provoking a war with Sony's game giant.

Competition in the entertainment industry is everywhere, and "Batman: Hour of War" and "Die Hard 3" also continued the main tone of this year.

With the opening of the summer season, the teenagers who had endured for a few months finally rushed into the cinema like wild horses.

Pete Imre is a middle school student. As a movie fan who could only watch Wayne movies through videotape, he was looking forward to the release of "Batman: Time for War" for several months. He couldn't wait to make an appointment with his neighbors. Went to the AMC chain of theaters in the Santa Monica business center together, ready to enjoy the film.

When the two of them entered the theater, they were stunned by the crowd in front of them. It can be seen that at least a hundred people walked out of the Batman theater that just ended, and the fans who were waiting in line to enter would definitely not below this number.

"Fortunately, I booked the tickets in advance, otherwise we may not be able to buy Batman's movie tickets." Pete Imre patted himself on the chest, and the two of them squeezed towards the ticket window together.

He specially booked the morning session because he was afraid that there would be too many people, but he didn't expect that there would be a long queue in the cinema just after eleven o'clock, and at the entrance of the cinema behind him, people kept coming.

"Hello, 3 recent Batman shots."

The white teenager in front of them skillfully handed the conductor a Franklin, but unexpectedly, the conductor glanced at the ticketing system and did not receive the money that was handed over.

Instead, he said with an embarrassed expression: "Sorry, sir, the movie tickets for Batman have been sold out before 4:50 in the afternoon. If you want, you can buy the show after 5:00."

"whatthef**k?!"

The boy looked at the conductor, and after confirming that there were no tickets, he finally bought the evening's show in advance When it was Pete Imre's turn, with a proud smile on his face, he told the conductor. Said: "I called and booked tickets before, yes, it's the next Batman, my name is Pete Imre, yes, and Matthew Webb."

He said and patted his little friend on the shoulder, but his little friend looked embarrassed.

"Hello, Pete Imre's movie tickets can be issued, but Matthew's has no ticket booking record. Will I give you a ticket now?"

The conductor's words were like a basin of cold water, which made him stunned for a moment. "How come, we have already booked tickets..."

"Pete, I actually wanted to see Die Hard, you know, I've always liked Bruce Wesley, so I didn't call to book..."

The little friend explained it very embarrassingly, and bought a movie ticket for "Die Hard", until the two came to the lounge area to wait for the movie to start, Pete Imre was still unhappy and angry.

"Matthew, you traitor! You lied to me. You told me yesterday that you had already booked a movie ticket. Do you know how hard it is to buy tickets for Batman? Look at the crowd around you."

"It doesn't matter, we watch different movies, and when we go back, we can tell each other what they played and which one was good. We'll watch it again tomorrow." Matthew patted his partner's shoulder and looked at each other in embarrassment.

"Well, that's all, I hope your idol, Bruce Wesley, won't let you down!"

The two films started almost at the same time, but before entering the theater, Pete Imre still discovered that "Die Hard" didn't have to queue at all, and only no more than ten people checked in to watch.

And there were at least 130 people in the team on his side, which further strengthened his choice.
