Rushing to the sky： PPT with music or super-long MV？

The love story of "Up to the Sky" is divided into three sections, and there is no big intersection in itself.

　 　 Special feature of 1905 film network Hong Kong films, which once enjoyed great popularity, have faced a lot of embarrassment in recent years. Filmmakers have gone north for gold. Under the charm of cultural integration and money, many Hong Kong filmmakers have lost their moral integrity. Therefore, we are witnessing the gradual decline of Hong Kong films, and it is such a film that makes people lose interest in Hong Kong films again.

　 　 While we are clamoring for domestic variety shows to be adapted into movies and put on the big screen, Hong Kong filmmakers have also moved TV dramas to cinemas. It is not surprising that the TV series "Rushing to the Sky" is adapted into a movie because of its captain, flight attendants, uniform temptation, affection between men and women and numerous fans. However, if you want to make money from movies, you have to abide by some rules and play games with rules, in order to get the audience’s great recognition. For example, tell a qualified and complete story

　 　　This is also the most criticized point of "Rushing to the Sky". The love story divided into three sections has no big intersection in itself. The name of "Rushing to the Sky" seems to be a Hong Kong version full of high morale and high spirits. Unfortunately, the film has neither rushed to the sky nor soared to the sky. It is just a bloody love story between several pilots and flight attendants. Perhaps it is more appropriate to change the name of the film "Love in the Clouds", which reminds me of another film about love in the clouds. Although the latter only explained a love of modern people with the help of the means of transportation, it responded to the love pattern in people’s stressful lives, but the close connection between the transmission of that kind of emotion and the clouds made people deeply impressed by the new emotional pattern in the film.

There is no spark between Louis Koo and Charmaine Sheh.

　 　　On the other hand, in "Up to the Sky", although Louis Koo and Charmaine Sheh, Wu Zhenyu and Sammi Cheng, Chilam and Guo Caijie jointly built the love pavilion of the film, the three people who had no sense of CP did not spark. In addition to the lack of input in performance, the lack of fullness of character and image and the sudden change for no reason are also the reasons why these loves are questioned. For example, between Sam and rock singer TM, the professional identity and sense of love that were not in tune were lost in the sudden personality change of the two roles. Don’t think that the audience will really believe that love can change everything, and how many couples finally parted ways because their nature cannot change. Sam turns into a nymphomaniac when he meets TM, and TM turns Matt into a warm girl. Who believes it? Captain Cool played by Chilam and Guo Caijie, a woman from Jiao Jiao, are the bridge between the former selling meat and the latter showing pity and shyness, and then terminally ill … … Director, it’s the 21st century, okay? Don’t play the Korean drama of the last century again. The emotional story between Branson and Charmaine Sheh, played by Louis Koo, is even more unattainable. A pair of older young people are very much in love and don’t die. What’s the point of being on and off? Far-fetched reasons really can’t convince even an audience that even a big Ferris wheel can’t add any romance.

　 　　If there is anything worthy of recognition in Rushing to the Sky, it may be the face value of the protagonists. Unfortunately, the face value of the old faces obviously can’t be matched, leaving the audience with perhaps only a flood of English songs in the whole film. What this Hong Kong TV series has always been good at has been inherited and abused by the film, resulting in the whole film being like a MV created for these English songs, which usurps the host’s role and loses the visual beauty of the image itself. In order to increase the beauty of the film, the creator added various filters to the film’s picture, such as Abao tones and high dynamics, and stripped the truth of the scene to pieces, leaving all these fake beauty, just like those beautiful women in the circle of friends who deliberately grind their skin, slim down and have long legs, which is meaningless.

　 　　Of course, the film has made some efforts to attract the audience. Changing scenes, such as luxurious big pools, office buildings, big planes, ferris wheels, all kinds of bed scenes and nudity, all try to gain the audience’s recognition through visual elements. Unfortunately, there is no effective docking with the story itself, and it is useless for you to move Dubai into the movie. After all, scenic tourist films and Japanese movies can meet the relevant needs of the audience more directly.

　 　　Therefore, this love story, which was staged by middle-aged people to young audiences, completely put the flying thing aside and completely devoted itself to you and me, unable to extricate itself. The grandiose pictures and stories that are not qualified really feel like Tiny Times, but unfortunately the latter still has small fresh meat and a response to the social craze (although it is superficial). And "Rushing to the Sky" really has nothing, but it has also lost all the essence of the TV series.

　 　　However, Rushing to the Sky does highlight the current trend of some urban movies, that is, paying more attention to pictures, doing everything to present beautiful urban buildings and landmarks, and highlighting visual enjoyment with color and composition. Although this pursuit is not wrong, many creators have gone too far on this road. Both Tiny Times and Rushing to the Sky have made such mistakes, forgetting the story itself in the pursuit of exquisite pictures, and the pictures of many films. Only when the carefully arranged pictures and the compiled content can be effectively integrated can the beauty of the pictures be involved in the narrative of the film, and it is no longer just an empty landscape photo. The same is true of the use of music. Of course, the grandiose trend of movies seems to respond to the cultural trend of society. In the era of fast food, fast food and fragmentation, people’s attention has been greatly dispersed, and the pursuit of ideas and deep desire have been gradually transferred and replaced. The rise of Weibo and the decline of blogs are proof. But for a movie, for two hours, the audience may not simply pursue visual sensory stimulation, but after laughing and crying, they are still eager for something thoughtful. Similarly, this is also the value responsibility that the film itself should bear. However, it was forgotten by movies and creators like "Up to the Sky".
