What is the core of the plot?
A bloody love story produced 8 years ago about a cook in a Beijing alley who fell into a "love triangle".
This gourmet romantic comedy movie co-starring Huang Bo and Guo Jin does not have high ratings on Douban.
Maybe it’s because the core plot is too bloody. A cook named “Idiot Wang” loves a girl desperately, but the girl happens to fall in love with another “glib-tongued man”, so the three of them go around in circles, all over the place.
This is how love begins.
Another criticism of "Egg Fried Rice" is that it imitates the movie "Forrest Gump" too obviously.
From the very beginning of the movie, there are references to the movie "Forrest Gump".
Baidu knows that some netizens have already pointed out the details, so I won’t go into details.
However, even if this film is suspected of "plagiarism", compared with many current romantic comedies, it still has its merits, as follows: 1. I can cook the most delicious egg fried rice, but I can't give you the love you want.
Compared with some bloody love comedies that sell dog meat over others, "Egg Fried Rice" at least tells a relatively complete love story: the cook "Fool Wang" has a simple ideal, which is to make the most delicious food in the world.
Egg fried rice, such a stubborn fool met a girl he liked one day, he cooked for her, solved her problems, made her happy, made her laugh, fool Wang had no regrets, he thought this was the real
Love, but the girl has something in her heart... Idiot Wang turned his pain into his strength, loving her as always, leaving a space for her in his heart, and looking forward to one day having a romantic start with the girl.
.
The above is the simple love of "Egg Fried Rice".
Forgive my words for not being exciting enough, but the movie is easy and smooth to watch, with a touch of sadness, especially when the male protagonist played by Huang Bo looks at his pitiful expression after being rejected by the female protagonist, it is really heartbreaking.
The temperament of the whole film is very beautiful, and the love story is not artificial or low-key. It is really like reading Zhang Jiajia's once popular novel collection "Passing Through My World", but the quality of the film is definitely better than Zhang Jiajia's movie "From Your Whole World"
"The World Passes by" (the novel is me, the movie is you, there is a big difference).
2. He was unknown 8 years ago, but 8 years later he is already a 10 billion box office actor. He can make such an unremarkable "love triangle" look more comfortable, and the actors are indispensable, especially the male protagonist Huang Bo.
The appearance of 8 years ago definitely did not belong to the status of a popular niche, but such a big boy with ordinary appearance may have an innate "audience connection", coupled with the "over and over again"
The plot setting of "Decay" makes Huang Bo quite sad after experiencing the betrayal of his friends, the loss of love, and the ruin of his dreams.
But when I think about it, "There is nothing wrong with being a little stupid. Foolish people are blessed by being stupid." I also have to mention the heroine Guo Jin. She originally debuted as the runner-up of Hong Kong's "Sister Asia" and has also hosted CCTV's "Art Garden Landscape" and "Travel".
Satellite TV's "Beautiful Beauty" and other columns.
A typical beautiful girl with both beauty and intelligence.
"Egg Fried Rice" is not Guo Jin's best work, because the girl from Heilongjiang is still far away from the Beijing silly girl, but the girl who "loves openly" in the film is still a bit free and easy, I guess
It can attract a lot of otakus to like it.
3. Chinese food + love story, this is a film and television theme worth digging into. "Egg Fried Rice" uses the shell of Chinese food to tell the love entanglements and fate of small people in the context of a big era. One of the best things about this film is that
It’s not sad or gloomy, and although some of the love-seeking content designs are a bit pretentious, the film is always down-to-earth, basically consistent with reality, and maintains a bright tone, as golden as “egg fried rice”.
Let's compare the current romantic comedies. They either keep talking about their exes or desperately recall their youth. It seems that there is no movie where the male and female protagonists can "live and fall in love at the same time."
Wen Yiwanwan is like a man and woman living in a TV series. They don't have to sacrifice themselves for five buckets of rice, they can live by talking about the immortal energy. They completely lack the fundamentals of life, and they are invincible.
From this point of view, "Egg Fried Rice" at least "has both inside and outside face".
In fact, when I was coding today, I couldn't help but think of Zhou Dongyu and Takeshi Kaneshiro's "Like You", which is also a complementary mixture of Chinese food and love stories, and is equally watchable.
Worth recommending.
