"Entertainment Weekly: The Spring Festival movie schedule that audiences have been waiting for for a long time has finally arrived. This year's movie types are diverse, so audiences can choose the type they like to watch!"

These entertainment journalists were also randomly interviewing the audience and asking which movie they came for.

The ones that received the most answers were "Dark Forest" and "Infernal Affairs".

"Dark Forest" has not yet started broadcasting, and just some trailers have been called the light of domestic science fiction movies by netizens. Audiences who have always wanted the rise of domestic movies will naturally not miss this opportunity.

What's more, it is a new film directed by Son Do-ho, who has been working hard to support the development of domestic films, and the audience must also support it.

Tan Yue is a top figure in the entertainment industry, and his fifth film has a lot of support from fans. They all want to see if his new film is of the same high quality as his previous ones? Will there be any new surprises?

At this time of year, the busiest place is the Film Forum.

The Spring Festival is a feast for those who like movies, and only during this time are the largest number of movies released and the highest quality.

All major sections are discussing the latest movies released and sharing their feelings after watching them.

"Depending on the situation, there will be no dark horses in this year's Spring Festival. The most popular ones are still "The Dark Forest" and "Infernal Affairs."

"Don't worry, it's just the beginning. You still have to have dreams, just in case they come true."

"Brother upstairs, I'm afraid your dream is going to be shattered. You can check out the comments on the science fiction movie module and the police movie module. They are almost unanimously positive, and you can't find a single negative comment."

"You don't even need to go to those two forums, aren't these two movies discussed everywhere?!"

The movie has just been released not long ago, everything has just begun, and the popularity of the two movies is equally high.

"I went to see "Into the Dark" early this morning. The special effects were amazing. It is truly the highlight of domestic science fiction movies. It's so good!"

"As a police film, "Infernal Affairs" can be filmed like this. I have to say that Mr. Tan Yue is very impressed and supports "Infernal Affairs"!"

"It has to be a veteran director. Director Son Do-ho used "Dark Forest" to once again teach the new generation of directors a lesson, proving that he is still the top director in the country."

"I didn't expect that Mr. Tan Yue's imagination would be so big. The plot of "Infernal Affairs" is very compact. I will unconsciously become nervous as I watch the plot. I haven't had such a feeling while watching a movie for a long time. It's wonderful!"

Jishui City.

I was lying at home playing with my cell phone, and suddenly I felt an ominous premonition in my heart.

Sure enough, not long after, Xu's mother came to the room: "I have a poker friend. Her daughter is back today for the Chinese New Year. The party happens to be at her house to play cards. You can come with me."

Xu Nuo begged, "Can we talk in a few days? Besides, today is the first day of the New Year. I don't think anyone else would want to go on a blind date."

Xu's mother thought that it did make sense, so she could only say helplessly: "Then come with me in two days."

"Okay, okay." Xu Nuo said perfunctorily.

Watching his mother leave, Xu Nuo breathed a sigh of relief. Then he played with his phone boredly and scrolled through Weibo, where he saw the discussion about "Infernal Affairs" on the Internet.

"Let's go to the movies." Xu Nuo contacted a friend, got a movie ticket for "Infernal Affairs", and drove to the cinema.

More than two hours later, Xu Nuo called Tan Yue as he came out of the cinema.

Tan Yue joked: "Fat man, what's wrong? Are you going on a blind date again?"

Xu Nuo held her forehead, feeling helpless: "I want to tell you something serious."

"whats the matter?"

"I just watched "Infernal Affairs" and it was so good." Xu Nuo couldn't help but praise it.

Promise to tell Tan Yue about the reaction of the audience in the theater, which made him feel more confident.

Weibo platform.

A very famous film critic shared a review of "Infernal Affairs".

The film critic's name is Wang Letian. Over the past ten years, he has relied on his unique vision to analyze movies, attracting more than 10 million fans, comparable to A-list celebrities. He is one of the film critics with the most fans and the most influence on China's online platforms.

Once the film review was released, it quickly attracted many netizens and fans to watch.

["I went to the cinema as soon as "Infernal Affairs" was released, and I felt a lot after watching it. I used to regard writing film reviews as my job, but today I just want to talk about my views."

"This movie made me look at police movies again. It deeply questions human nature from a philosophical perspective, allowing me to feel the suffocation caused by involuntary actions, greed and selfishness, and the painful entanglement of good and evil."

"The script is quite excellent. Chen Yongren is a direct deification. All the characters are remarkable. The plot, rhythm, performance, and even the soundtrack are all amazing. There is nothing superfluous."

"The theme of fringe people, which is common in police and gangster movies, has been taken to a new level. The complicated relationships between the characters, the entangled and misplaced fates, the tense and silent psychological confrontation, and several rival scenes are still endlessly memorable when I think about it."

"The film is extremely cold and restrained, weakening the violence between conflicts, but the shock is aroused from the bottom of the heart. It is completely the turmoil under the calm appearance of the characters. Putting aside the simple "soldiers and bandits", no matter which character's perspective you are in,

It is a very "anxious" state, where one's identity is not recognized and one cannot fully integrate into the group."

"Sure enough, art is a kind of aftertaste after calming down. "Infernal Affairs" is a movie worth always recalling."

"I believe many of the plots will become famous scenes. They are quite warm and tragic. Everyone seems to be kidnapped, one after another. Mission: Impossible falls into the trap, the undercover acts as an undercover, the mole catches the mole, you sing

Let me take the stage, it will be a wonderful show."

"I hereby boldly predict that no matter what the final result of "Infernal Affairs" is, it will become a classic."]

Thanks to the popularity of Wang Letian himself and the Spring Festival movie, the comments in the message area have exceeded 100,000.

"Brother Lotte's analysis is very comprehensive. This is exactly how I felt after watching this movie. It is very surprising that such a police movie can be produced!"

"The scene that impressed me the most was when Huang Zhicheng was thrown from the rooftop. Coupled with the BGM and Chen Yongren's expression at the time, it was simply amazing."

"My favorite part is the final showdown between the two protagonists on the rooftop. I'm so sure that part will be a famous scene!"

"Ma Guoliang's acting skills in this movie are simply amazing. Of course Zhang Wenhua is also good. I look forward to their future development."

“‘Infernal Affairs’ is the most exciting cop movie I’ve ever seen!”

"Seeing your comments makes me want to see this movie even more, but I haven't bought the movie tickets yet."

Night, Magic City.

Jiang Bei walked out of the cinema with an excited look on his face. He had just watched "Infernal Affairs" and was impressed by its brilliance.

He has also watched "Dark Forest", and the biggest feeling it brought was shock.

The special effects of "Dark Forest" are not inferior to those of foreign blockbusters, and it is worthy of the title of the light of domestic science fiction movies.

Jiang Bei was sitting in the car, analyzing the strengths of the two movies.

"The Dark Forest" is superior in terms of production scale and connotation, and in terms of the excitement of the plot, "Infernal Affairs" is superior. The two films can be said to have their own merits.

But for Jiangbei, he still likes "Infernal Affairs" more.

He feels that this movie is easier for the audience to immerse themselves in. Even if he has been a director for more than ten years, his mood will fluctuate with the plot.

When Jiang Bei drove home, his wife had already cooked and was waiting.

"How did you feel about the two movies you watched today?" my wife asked.

"I have to say that they are all good movies. Being able to make such movies now will be of great benefit to the development of domestic movies in the future."

The wife looked surprised: "The reviews are so high? Are the two new movies very good?"

Jiang Bei smiled and ate the vegetables.

"Today I saw a lot of people discussing "The Dark Forest" and "Infernal Affairs" on the Internet," said my wife.

Jiang Bei explained: "This can be regarded as the first head-to-head confrontation between two leading figures of the older generation and the new generation of directors. In addition, the quality of the movies is extremely high. It would be strange if there was no discussion online."

"Okay, from your point of view as a director, which of these two movies do you think will do better at the box office?" The online opinions on the two movies were similar, and Mrs. Jiang couldn't guess at the moment.

Jiang Bei shook his head: "I don't know either."

"Into the Woods" and "Infernal Affairs" are two top-notch movies.

As for who will win the box office championship? Who can have the last laugh? Who can predict it?

The only thing he can be sure of now is that the final box office champion must be one of them.

Jiang Bei is also very much looking forward to the next confrontation between the two movies. He said thoughtfully: "We will see the box office on the premiere day tomorrow. I don't know who will win the box office championship on the first day."

Based on the popularity of the two movies before their release and the audience's feedback after their release, he guessed there wouldn't be much difference.

The wife did not continue to ask about the movie, but talked about the fun that happened at the neighbor's house today.
