Chapter 520: Disagreement between mind and mouth


Chapter 520: Inconsistency
After the premiere, Dante Cortez and Noel, who had just met, chatted about their opinions on the movie.

"I think the best part of the film is actually the first half, the process of Bruce Wayne going from confusion to finding himself and regaining his faith.

A hero is not a hero from the beginning, there is always a process of growth. "

"That's right," Noel agreed: "Heroes are necessary and needed. The spiritual attributes of a superhero like Bruce Wayne far exceed his own abilities."

The two became more and more interested in each other as they chatted, and then found a bar to continue chatting about their views on the movie.

"Christian Bale had been in B-movies and independent films before, and he had done Empire of the Sun, a Steven Spielberg movie, when he was only 13 years old," Noel said.

I have to say that Director Gilbert Jr. has a really good vision when it comes to selecting actors. "

"Yes, Christian Bale has a light and dark temperament that is very suitable for the complex character of Bruce Wayne."

Dante Cortez talked about another thing: "I heard that Marvel Studios is about to prepare its first movie to film the story of Iron Man. How do you think Gilbert Jr. will plan this project?"

"I don't know about that," Noel shook his head and said, "But Marvel and DC have different temperaments. I guess Iron Man won't be as bitter and hateful as Batman and bear so many responsibilities."

These two are the kind of movie fans who have their own thinking and can see more things expressed in the film. However, many movie fans actually watched it for fun. The first half was a bit dull, but the second half was very enjoyable.

Especially the excellent experience of IMAX has conquered all movie fans.

"I strongly recommend everyone to see the IMAX version of "Beginners", it's really great."

"An unparalleled movie-watching experience, "Beginners" in IMAX format looks extremely spectacular."

"Director Gilbert Jr. breaks away from past superheroes and even most Hollywood movies.

With super visual performance, soundtrack, script, line design, action scenes, etc., it takes us into a real Gotham. "

"I just want to say one thing. Real shots look much better than special effects shots. Reality and immersion are what superhero movies need most."

"Gilbert Jr.'s Batman movie focuses on how Bruce Wayne became Batman, as well as his training, equipment development and other processes as a novice Batman.

There is no doubt that this is something that the previous Batman films have not given us, and we see it all in this movie.

I heard that this is a brand new trilogy series. I think the first movie is good, and I hope that the rest of it will get better and better like "The Return of the King." "

Of course, some people like a movie and some don't, and that's normal. In order to explain Batman's growth process, Little Gilbert has a lot of literary and inner dramas, just like in independent movies.

For viewers who like simple or big action scenes, the first half of the film may seem a bit boring.

Among them, the most criticized one is that the use of narrative techniques such as flashbacks and interludes makes it difficult to understand the plot.

A very typical scene is that in one scene, Bruce Wayne's parents were shot, and in the next scene, in the memory of the conversation with Henry Ducard, Bruce Wayne's father appeared again.

The most important thing is that this scene is very short, only about ten seconds.

Because the first half of the plot is dull, if you are distracted for a moment, you will miss a lot of scenes, which undoubtedly makes it difficult to understand the plot.

Therefore, it is understandable that some viewers give negative reviews.

Although some people like the pace and narrative style of the film and some don't, there is no doubt that everyone enjoyed watching the action scenes in the second half. The most popular shot among them is probably the beast-like Batmobile rampage!
The most outstanding thing about this version of Batman is undoubtedly the design of the action scenes, which is much better than Nolan's version. The final battle scene is also exciting enough, leaving movie fans unable to stop.

Some film critics have different ideas. They think the first half of the film is very good, very good, but the second half is a bit redundant and superfluous.

According to one of the film critics, Gilbert Jr. should delve deeper into Bruce Wayne's inner world and show his inner pain and struggle.

Now this film is too commercially made and is a failed Batman movie.

Just listen to what these film critics have to say. In today’s film market environment, coupled with the rise of the Internet, film critics are no longer as glorious as they were in the 1980s and 1990s.

Nowadays, they can only be active during the awards season and still make a difference.

And big-name film critics, such as Roger Ebert, have long found a way out for themselves and become a major internet celebrity film critic in the Internet era.

The same goes for Kenneth Turan. Both of them seemed to have mastered the password to making a fortune in the Internet era, and gradually shifted their focus to the Internet.

But in fact, the Internet is not at its most developed in this era. When smart phones become commercially available and the mobile Internet develops, it is estimated that the Internet celebrity economy will also take off.

Little Gilbert never cared about the opinions of these film critics, and he cared less after winning the Oscar for Best Director.

For little Gilbert, pleasing the audience is the first priority. Movies that the audience likes are the movies he wants to make.

Prior to this, Little Gilbert had suggested that Warner should not hire so many film critics and pay for public relations expenses, which is a waste of money.

However, Warner Pictures felt it was unsafe because of the failure of the previous Batman movie, so they hired some film critics, and it was criticized as expected.

But there is no need to worry. If I become stronger, there will be great scholars who will defend me. Roger Ebert, the most influential film critic in the United States, is on the side of little Gilbert.

"The film gives a complete and substantial account of the reasons why Bruce Wayne became Batman, from self-doubt to tempering to regaining justice. The whole process is done in one go.

The inner emotions of the characters are also real and rich. It is an excellent beginning of the series. Among the existing movies, this Batman is the most charming. "

Roger Ebert wrote a movie review on his social account, which immediately received a large number of likes from die-hard fans.

The premiere was in Chicago, so he didn't have to travel around. He recorded a film review show the next day. In the show, he criticized those film critics who are "just for fame and reputation", thinking that they don't understand movies at all.

"As far as the superhero genre is concerned, I can't find a better movie than 'Beginner.' If a movie like this isn't great, what are the other superhero movies?"

Roger Ebert continued to speak earnestly: "I advise you to first understand the concept of film production and art.

The Little Gilbert movie is pretty good, why are you giving it a bad review?
Huh? No need to lose face. "

I wonder if General Fan will feel a little familiar when he sees this sentence. However, other film critics who gave negative reviews were not as thick-skinned as Kenneth Turan, and Roger Ebert scolded Red Winner.

After the premiere, Gilbert Jr. and the creators returned to Los Angeles and held a meeting with Warner's publicity department.

The film will be officially released nationwide next Friday, but little Gilbert has to go to Istanbul, so the road show promotion task can only be left to other creators.
