The original movie "Kung Fu" was questioned and criticized by the audience when it was first released, but as time went on, its ratings gradually increased and it became a classic.
This film contains a huge amount of information. It depicts many social phenomena and the complexity of human nature through rich plots and complex character relationships.
In addition, the film also incorporates various traditional martial arts elements, such as the Twelve-Way Tan Leg, Hong Family Iron Wire Fist, Wulang Bagua Stick, Six-Fingered Qin Demon, Tai Chi, Lion Roar Kung Fu, Toad Kung Fu, etc.
These are all meant to demonstrate courage and justice, rather than simply a contest of force.
The ending of the movie is even more profound. Huoyun Evil God's kneeling and the words "I lost" reveal the core of the movie - courage and kindness are better than violence and evil.
Overall, although "Kung Fu" did not receive unanimous praise in the early stages, it is still considered by many to be Stephen Chow's most representative work.
It has a high artistic level and depth. It not only contains Stephen Chow's consistent humorous style, but also incorporates profound philosophical thinking. It is hailed as a classic.
In this world, Zhou Xingchi has already starred in a series of nonsensical films and formed a unique style.
So after the release of this movie, it scored 8.9 on Douban, which is not low, and it is still rising.
Although "Kung Fu" does not have the grand scenes of science fiction movies, its plot is compact and exciting, its style is very different, and its reputation is not bad.
"Kung Fu Hustle is great, and Zhou Xingchi's acting is as good as ever!"
"Fuck, who else!!!"
"The palm technique that falls from the sky, the twelve-way Tan leg technique, and the lion's roar technique are so awesome."
"The movie's title is right, it really is real kung fu!"
"The mute girl must be Han Duoduo, she's so beautiful."
"It's both beautiful and funny. You'll regret it if you don't watch it."
“…”
The first group of viewers who had watched the film couldn't wait to discuss it online and directly give ratings and reviews, which attracted the attention of a large number of people who had not watched it yet.
"I'm not well educated, so don't lie to me. What you said makes me want to go and see it."
"It's just two tickets, seventy or eighty yuan. I'll take my girlfriend to see it after get off work."
"It's not good, don't watch it, I'll just give you a spoiler."
"Get lost, spoiler the damn household register!"
People coming out of the cinema all had smiles on their faces and were discussing the plot with their friends.
This shows that the audience still likes this movie very much.
Some film critics also expressed their opinions on the film:
"Hello everyone, I'm the venomous moviegoer. I'm here again. That's right, the movie I want to talk about this time is 'Kung Fu Hustle,' written by Chen Muyang, directed by Zhou Long, and starring Zhou Xingchi and Chu Jiaolong."
"I went to see 'Kung Fu Hustle,' and the film won praise from the audience for its unique humor and exciting fighting scenes."
"It is not only an entertaining film, but in some ways, it is also a work with profound connotations, showing the complexity of human nature and the meaning of life."
"Kung Fu is an action-comedy film that tells the story of a street thug who becomes a martial artist and a gangster who turns good at what he does."
"The protagonist of the film, A Xing (played by Zhou Xingchi), is a small-time hoodlum living at the bottom of society. His life is full of absurdity and helplessness."
"Overall, the movie 'Kung Fu' is indeed a good movie. I personally like it very much. The plot can make people laugh out loud. It is very interesting."
"I strongly recommend everyone to go to the cinema to watch it. Out of 10 points, I give "Kung Fu" a score of 9.3. It deserves it!"
This movie is relatively bloody in some places, which may cause disgust to some parents.
However, Chen Muyang already had solutions to these problems.
Children are strictly prohibited from watching the film alone and must be accompanied by a guardian.
As the popularity online grows, the box office of "Kung Fu" on the first day of its release has also been released, which is 301 million. It is not impossible for it to reach 10 billion!
Of course, this result might have surprised people in the past, but now it has become commonplace. Some netizens even think it is too low, so they go to watch it a second or third time.
So much so that the box office on the second day reached 586 million!
Movies related to Chen Muyang always start low and end high, or start high and end high, and the box office has always been climbing, showing no signs of decline.
On Douyin, some classic action and funny scenes from "Kung Fu" were edited by secondary creative self-media accounts, dominating the platform every day and making a lot of money.
Seven days later.
"Kung Fu" was released in other Asian countries, Europe, North America and other regions.
…
The set of "Wandering on the Blue Planet 2".
"Brother Jing, congratulations on wrapping up!"
At this time, the filming was gradually coming to an end. After Wu Jing finished filming his scenes, he went to the crew of "Changjin Lake" without stopping.
Chen Muyang deliberately gave priority to finishing his scenes, because on the other side of "Changjin Lake", only Wu Jing's scenes were left to be filmed.
As time went by, "Kung Fu" was taken off the screen in China, and the total domestic box office reached 9.85 billion, just short of breaking 10 billion.
It also performed well overseas, with the box office reaching 363 million yuan when the film was released overseas.
The global box office of "Kung Fu" has exceeded 12 billion!
It’s really amazing!
Just when "Kung Fu" was released, "The Wandering Planet 2" wrapped up in early September, more than ten days later than expected.
The main scene was the moon bombing scene, which was NG'd many times.
"I announce that "Wandering on the Blue Water Planet 2" has officially wrapped up!" Chen Muyang shouted with a loud speaker.
He has grown a beard on his face, which shows that he has been too busy to take care of himself.
"Everyone has worked so hard over the past six months. Thank you for your cooperation. Come, let's raise our glasses together and look forward to our "Wandering Water Blue Planet 2" achieving great results!"
At the wrap-up party, Chen Muyang held up a glass of wine and spoke to all the cast and crew members.
Wu Jing came here specially from the crew of "Changjin Lake".
"Mu Yang, you are the one who works the hardest. Look, your beard has grown out, haha." King Liu laughed.
"King Liu, Director Chen has become more manly." Su Ruyan giggled.
"Yes, you women are good at talking. By the way, Mu Yang, when does the show start? Have you decided?"
"Not yet, at least until this movie is finished." Chen Muyang shook his head.
After the wrap party, everyone rested in the hotel for a night and then went their separate ways.
Chen Muyang returned to the company with his team and began working with the special effects department on the post-production of "Wandering on the Blue Water Planet 2"...
