Life on the Fly tells us a very common story, but it is because of this common story that we know more about reality. Zhang Chi used to be a man of the hour in racing. In order to settle his adopted son, he held a fake match. Not only was the driver's license revoked, but he was suspended for five years and even faced a large amount of endorsement compensation. Five years later, he became a master of fried rice, but he never gave up his return in the dream of the game, but at the same time he encountered countless difficulties in the process of returning.
The seemingly simple story of life's counterattack and success seems to have been filmed by countless people. The interesting thing about this film is that it left a happy ending for people. At the end of the movie, Zhang Chi ran off the runway. We don't know his life and death, but his pursuit of dreams will remain in the hearts of our audience forever.
The overall feeling of his early films is always closely related to his books, not that it is bad, but more for minority groups. Although the later films were not perfect because of his unique plot, considering the public's views, it is worthy of recognition that compared with the earliest literary films, he had a model of commercial films at that time. There is no doubt that this film is very successful in business, and its success can be understood as its own characteristics and many plot points that are in line with the public aesthetic.
From the choice of the protagonist, we can predict the follow-up of this film. Shen Teng is the yardstick of box office in recent years, and his performance is the guarantee of comedy's default box office to some extent. However, there are many different voices about his filming. Online comments are all about Han Han's compromise on the market and his acceptance of popular standards. But in my opinion, this is not so much a compromise to the public aesthetics as that he is not a young director who just debuted. He is mature enough to know what kind of movies are more acceptable to the public. He also wants to make his films have more open space.
