Burns also heard the critics' complaints and looked a little disappointed.

Li Rui whispered: "Don't care about their evaluation. If their opinions can determine the box office of a movie, why didn't anyone invite them to be directors?"

Burns said: "The Hunger Games is the most important film of Lionsgate this year. The success or failure of the first one is related to the life and death of the entire series. I am indeed a little over-the-top nervous."

Li Rui said: "I think you can put the shooting plan for the second or even the third part on the agenda. Although I haven't seen the finished film yet, I insist that this movie will definitely succeed and we will make a profit.

A lot of money!”

Burns smiled and said, "I hope your prediction will become a reality."

He said: "Jennifer's performance in the film is quite good. The producers and directors, as well as the staff, everyone has high expectations for her. Those critics are right. She is the new generation of Hollywood women.

The most awesome actors, you will see how outstanding she is later!”

Li Rui thought to himself, of course I know how outstanding she is, and I know more clearly than anyone else...

"And Taylor Mosen, you recommended, she is not bad either. I thought she could only act in TV series, but she didn't expect her performance on the big screen was also very exciting." Burns didn't know what Li Rui was thinking, so continue

Praise his vision.

As they were talking, the lights in the theater gradually dimmed. About half of the audience sat in the theater that could accommodate 200 viewers, most of which were local film critics in Los Angeles. "The Hunger Games" is about to usher in their rigorous scrutiny.

Li Rui and Burns also stopped talking and began to watch the video seriously.

The previewed video is exactly the same as the officially released version. Even the Lions Gate logo on the opening credits is preserved together. A large number of gears appear on the screen, turning one by one, and then the lens pulls from the inside out.

When we came out, a door slowly opened, and the "liongate" appeared.

For Lionsgate, a film and television company that is good at taking different strategies with small profits and big swords, the "Hunger Games" series is comparable to the "Fat 911" they launched back then, and it can be regarded as another crucial thing in the company's development history.

The turning point.

A line of words appeared on the dark screen.

from thetreaty of thetreason (under the terms of the treason)…

For Li Rui, this video is not unfamiliar with it. It is basically no different from what he watched in his previous life. There may be only some details.

Li Rui was also a fan of "The Hunger Games". This movie is said to be profound but not profound enough, and it is not superficial. It is both cruelty of human nature, darkness of power, and warm emotions. The fierce fighting is just right to satisfy.

The needs of various movie fans have also touched the itch of the younger generation of audiences, and have been widely popular among young people since the beginning of their release.

In previous lives, some film critics criticized the splatter of plasma in the movie. Some people think there is something wrong with the plot logic, and some people say that this is a clumsy imitation of the island country's movie "Battle Royale", but it is difficult to stop the box office from rising steadily.

The taste of film critics has never represented the public, and in fact no one can represent the public.

Li Rui doesn't care about the critics' critics. Even in his previous life, he believed that as long as a movie can give the audience sensory stimulation or mood pleasure in the more than one hour it was released, it would be a good movie.

As for movies, as for depth, meaning, and education, that is not the responsibility that movies should bear.

As a film investor in this life, Li Rui's idea is even simpler. Give the audience what they want and then accept their tickets. This is what a movie should do.

Li Rui has implemented this idea once in "Too Embarrassment". Comedy movies tickled people hard, and it's all over to make people laugh. Don't do anything about laughing first and then crying!

If you want to watch in-depth, would you like to watch "Critique of Pure Reason"? Otherwise, you will watch "Waiting for Godot" and you can't be able to see you sleeping! If that's not deep enough, there is a place on the earth called Mariah

The trench should be deep enough. If you are not afraid of not being able to float, you can go there to find the depth.

Want to find meaning in the cinema, but go to the wrong place. Movie tickets worth a few dozen yuan cannot bear such a big responsibility! It's like spending hundreds of yuan to find a technician, who has no obligation to have children and take care of his husband and children for the guests.

The truth!

There are still people who want to get education. Do you know there is a place called a school? When I was in school, I didn’t see you so hard to seek education. When I went to the cinema to talk about it, I wouldn’t be afraid of being heard by the teacher and pierced the eardrum?

As a commercial film, "The Hunger Games" can make the audience feel good, that's enough!

Audiences will also vote with their wallets. The new generation of young talents, regardless of what they have or not, will be willing to pay for their support as long as they make them happy!

The first fifteen minutes of the film are laid out, and the pace is slow and makes people want to doze off. This is a common problem in Magnesium movies.

Many movies that Li Rui has watched before, such as "Lord of the Rings", "King Kong", etc., will be drowsy due to the lengthy preparation, and almost missed many classic movies.

Starting from the plot of drawing lots, the plot suddenly became tense.

Taylor Mosson, who appeared on the big screen for the first time, showed extraordinary acting skills, making the girl's tenderness, the horror of hearing that she was being beaten, and Jennifer's scream when she offered to replace her as a volunteer, let Ming know

Li Rui was slightly moved in the ending and became worried about the fate of the characters in the play.

Jennifer's performance is even more exciting. When she was pushed to the high platform by the soldiers, her confused and helpless look contrasted with her impulse and courage when she stood up. She showed the character's personality traits in just one or two minutes.

To the fullest.

Jennifer's acting skills are natural. For a moment, people forget her true identity, forget that she is an actor, forget that she is also a magical girl, forget that she has performed in other movies, and make people truly believe that she is just a willing to do her sister.

A girl who gives her life.

People in the film critics are watching the movie quietly, and some people are writing something in the dark while watching. This is probably a unique skill that every film critic needs to master.

To be honest, "The Hunger Games" is not the kind of classic film that makes people excited from beginning to end, but it is indeed a popcorn movie with excellent production and superb acting skills and excellent details in all aspects. Perhaps people can watch it

You can guess the development of the next part by one plot, but it does not prevent one exciting scene after another from constantly pushing the plot to a climax, and finally a perfect ending.

Of course, it cannot compare to "The Shawshank Redemption", "Forrest Gump", and "The Lord of the Rings", but compared to movies of the same type, "The Hunger Games" can hardly find any shortcomings.

For a commercial film, that's enough!

After the screening, the film critics stood up and left, and Burns shook hands with them one by one at the door to say goodbye.

When Charlie and Burns shook hands, they lowered their voices and said, "Good movie, beyond my expectations. My expectations were 5 points, but it could hit 8 points. Don't be too proud, at least 2 of them are for Jennifer

of!"

"Thank you for your 8 points." Burns said happily.
Chapter completed!
