The Fantasy Entertainment Empire

The full film duration of "Martial Arts Master: Fire of War" is the standard ninety minutes, which is about one and a half hours.

In the current commercial market, a movie of this length has proved to be a relatively suitable length.

Generally speaking, for movies, especially for movie directors, they can't wait to make the movie as long as possible. Obviously, the longer the duration of the movie, it means that there is more space to put down more content, making the movie fuller and more complete. And these will help strengthen the director or other creators to express what they want to express in the movie.

However, commercially, this is not a good choice.

For theaters, every day is 24 hours, and the audience will choose the prime time to watch movies, and it is only for a while.

If it is a 120-minute, 150-minute, or even longer movie, maybe a hall can only show one movie during prime time. And if the film is 90 minutes long, it can usually show two scenes, or even three scenes if the time is arranged.

If the ticket price is similar, a 90-minute movie will undoubtedly be more popular. Under almost the same conditions, in order to maximize the revenue, the theaters will inevitably arrange the number of films and favor short-length films.

From the perspective of the audience, it is actually a similar concept.

The most exaggerated is the kind of three or four hour movie. This kind of online version or DVD at home, you can still watch half of it, and watch it next time when you are tired. In a movie theater, sitting for three or four hours at a time is not something everyone can bear.

A film of 150 minutes, or almost two and a half hours, is already the limit for theater screenings. In fact, the average movie, between ninety minutes and one hundred and twenty minutes, is more common.

"Martial Arts Master: Fire of War" is a commercial film. During the project preparation stage, Dimension Entertainment made a strong control on the rhythm of the film content, and controlled the film length within 90 minutes.

The result is really good, the pace of the whole film is fast and compact, without too much nonsense. In addition to telling the story completely, refreshment is inevitable.

This is a commercial film that is quite qualified, even above the standard. More importantly, this type, among domestic films, was rarely seen in the past-it can be made with so much investment. , is unique.

The movie was over, Liang Shuyue sat in her seat, looking at the list of main creators on the screen, she didn't want to move for a while - she was still reminiscing about the 90-minute exciting experience just now.

Taking out her mobile phone, she gave "Fire of War" a perfect score in Maoyan, Douban and other apps that can be rated.

At the same time, she also saw that on Maoyan, the score of "War" was already 9.6 points. On Douban, it is slightly lower, with an appearance of 8.6, which can be regarded as entering the ranks of excellent movies.

Of course, Douban's ratings usually have a downward trend as the movie's release time prolongs, and eventually a stable data is obtained, which is normal.

But if it was dropped from 8.5 to below 8 points in two days like "The Wandering Earth", and there are still a certain percentage of one-star and two-star reviews, then it is probably hacked.

The big screen of the movie was completely blacked out, and Liang Shuyue got up and left the theater.

However, the feeling of excitement in his head still lingered.

To be honest, the twists and turns of her coming to the cinema today made her feel very tired.

I had been working all day and was very tired, so I came here in the rain again at night. You can't get a good seat when you buy a ticket. Waiting at the counter, your feet are almost numb, and you are cheated. If old U, a good comrade, hadn't raised his hand, she might have to sit in the first row today, watching the whole show with her head up and her neck in pain.

But no matter how many setbacks, exhaustion and unhappiness she had before, after watching this movie, she felt her whole body cheered up.

Exciting images, a good and complete plot, and the acting skills of the actors are generally online... She is not a film critic, but from the perspective of fans, she still thinks this is a very appetizing and good-looking movie.

And if the fan's perspective is also included, it would be a masterpiece to blow up to the heavens!

...

Also very excited is the film critic 'Spy'.

A few days ago, he received an invitation letter from Dimension Entertainment. In the letter, in addition to the invitation letter, there is also a movie ticket that was ordered in advance.

Even if he is a relatively well-known self-media film critic, plus he has a relatively good evaluation of Dimension Entertainment's many works before.

This can be regarded as a friendly army.

Ever since, when "Martial Arts Master: Flames of War" was screened, the marketing department of the company did not forget him and sent him a movie ticket.

But the spy himself never considered himself a fan of anyone—even if he sometimes said so, it was only used as an adjective. From the bottom of his heart, he believes that he has been able to get to where he is now, relying on fair comments to gain the trust of the majority of movie lovers.

This is the foundation of his life, and he has always controlled the speed of it.

Relying on traffic to monetize and make some money, this kind of thing will definitely be done, after all, he is a professional film critic, and he depends on this thing for a living.

However, if he takes money to say good things about any movie, then this is his bottom line, and he will never do it.

At the beginning, when he heard about the movie "Martial Arts Master: Flames of War", he instinctively resisted.

He really appreciates the company Dimension Entertainment. Although they have only released the "Hell Apartment" series of films so far, in this domestic environment, there may not be many horror films that can achieve this level.

When "Hell Apartment" was released, he gave the movie a thumbs up.

Of course, Dimension Entertainment's TV series are really good, so there's nothing to say about that.

Especially "Martial Arts Master".

He also likes to watch this drama. He has vigorously promoted this drama on his Zhihu column, Douban, and V Letter public account, and he believes that it is the world's top production level.

However, Dimension Entertainment turned this show into a movie, which made him a little upset.

This kind of operation has a strong taste of misappropriating money. Moreover, based on his experience of watching movies over the years, it is true that most of these popular TV dramas are converted into movies, and most of them are money-making works from the producers to the theaters. There are very few who can do a good job of changing TV dramas into movies.

Especially for these domestic film producers, it is even more unscrupulous.

He is very worried that Dimension Entertainment will also use this kind of operation to collect money after it grows bigger and bigger.

In any case, to judge a movie, you still have to watch the movie first.

After watching it, while the movie caused great comfort, I also gave this movie a big thumbs up in my heart!

"The top work of domestic commercial genre films!"
