From “Hero” to “Eight Bai”, the staged evolution of Chinese blockbusters
The movie “Eight Hundred” was released and the box office blew out and received rave reviews. The Chinese film market, which has been silent for more than half a year due to the epidemic, really needs movies like “Eight Hundred” to stimulate the market in the recovery stage.
“Yabai” is really good-looking. It has achieved the ultimate in story, characters and scenes. It is a film that can capture the audience from beginning to end. Even if it is 147 minutes long, few people want to leave. Xi, there is no waste.
The success of “Eight Hundred” is not accidental. The commercial blockbuster of Chinese films has been nearly 20 years from exploration to experimentation, starting from Zhang Yimou’s “Hero”, and it is still a growth stage, but at least until this year. Here, we can say that we have achieved fruitful results, but there is still a long way to go in the future.
The first stage, the breakthrough of “Hero”, the breakthrough of Zhang Yimou (2002~2006)
