Among them, Farewell My Concubine and Alive, which we often say. "Overlord" is a literary film and a drama film, focusing on literature and art. "Alive" is a drama and family film, focusing on drama. So this is also why the artistic achievement and score represented by Overlord is higher than that of Living.
Usually movies are classified into drama, action, science fiction and romance.
Usually, the score is: the drama is lower than the literary film, and the action film science fiction is lower than the drama film.
Usually box office: literary films are lower than drama films, and drama films are lower than science fiction and action films.
But not all sci-fi action movies can't get high marks. For example, Duncan Jones, the director of Warcraft, chose a thought-provoking story in his early Moon under the framework of sci-fi script.
Another example is The Dark Knight of Batman, which is different from the sci-fi film like Captain America, which focuses on visual effects and empty plots. Instead, it weakens visual effects (a superhero who can only play tortoise boxing), emphasizes plot reversal and discusses human nature (the existence of clowns) and actors' acting skills, so the score is surprisingly high.
The same is true in Spielberg's ET Alien, for example, because there are excellent plots to support it.
Wolf Warriors 2, as a standard action movie, many people compare it with Alive, The Avengers and Hacksaw Ridge, but Wolf Warriors is an action movie that only uses war plot clues. War movies are a confrontation between countries and armies. "Alive" is a drama light family film "Avengers" is a sci-fi light action film (just moving) and "hacksaw Ridge" is also a drama show as an introduction.
People often say that you Americans are allowed to fight aliens to save the earth, and we are not allowed to fight bad guys to save our compatriots? It is simply retarded to say such logic, a science fiction film based on the future and an action film based on reality to compare the plots with each other. It is really impossible to understand this logic.
What's more, do American directors, American investors, American producers, American scripts and American production teams have to invite a group of China actors to perform this plot? The obstacles of language communication, the communication cost of film shooting, are you willing to do this as a director, producer and investor?
Maybe you will talk about the Great Wall in Zhang Yimou, so please check the information of the Great Wall. Except for the director, screenwriter, investor and producer, the team is all American, which belongs to the standard Hollywood manufacturing. Zhang Yimou is only used for box office appeal and doesn't even have the right to edit movies.
The same genre that Wolf Warriors 2 wants to compare should be action movies or military action movies. For example, American Sniper abroad is very similar to Wolf Warriors 2, and both of them are accused of the main theme and individual heroism. As for "The First Blood" and "True Lies", there is no need to compare them. After all, after a long time, the lens language and the first-level visual presentation of the film have been improving or evolving.
