Don't stop the camera: I think this is the worst movie this year.

"Don't Stop the Camera" is a low-budget movie, with an investment of only 65.438+0.8 million, but it won 65.438+0.8 billion box office. Although 65.438+0.8 billion is not very high, it can be called a box office miracle on the basis of 65.438+0.8 billion. Word of mouth is also good. When it was first released, the score of Douban was as high as 9.2, and the freshness of rotten tomatoes was 100% (the film's favorable rate).

It's also interesting to read the introduction. A crew filmed a zombie movie in the ruins of a deep mountain. I didn't expect that they met a real zombie at this time. The director recorded the process of the players becoming zombies with a camera. It's easy to think of documentary films like The Blair Witch Project.

Generally speaking, I had great expectations for this film before I saw it. Seeing the movie poster, I even thought of Quentin's masterpiece "Kill Bill".

But I was stupid at the movies, and I thought, that's it? If this can be a good movie, it is estimated that there will be no bad movies. The actor's acting is very embarrassing. Some scenes are so embarrassing and creepy. Zombies actually perform with inexplicable joy. Pose doesn't bite, and the plot is full of loopholes. Some plots are completely chaotic and the lens is out of focus occasionally.

But why do so many people say it is good? We'll have the answer in half an hour after the movie.

"Don't Stop the Camera" is unknown from the director to the actor, and there is nothing to say about the visual effect. It is really because the ultra-low cost does not allow movies to spend time in these places. What attracts it is ingenious ideas.

The film can be divided into three parts, starting with this shoddy film, then the opportunity to shoot this film, and finally the shooting process of this film. Yes, it's a play in a play. The film didn't really get to the point until the last 30 minutes. The thriller turned into a comedy, all the contents that made the audience dissatisfied turned into jokes, and the plots full of loopholes were answered one by one.

Even though the next 30 minutes are wonderful, the rhythm is still very risky. The first 37 minutes of "Don't Stop the Camera" are not only boring, but also kill the patience of the audience, making people feel that the director never considered the box office when shooting.

In fact, director Ueda really didn't have much hope. His greatest expectation is that 5000 people will come to see the film. So "Don't Stop the Camera" can be regarded as a very simple movie, a movie made purely for the sake of making a movie, and a real work. The director has his own understanding of the film and took what he wanted to shoot, that's all.

It is easy to see the meaning of paying tribute to "behind the scenes" from the plot. There are two people in the camera and dozens of people outside the camera. All the interlocking performances depend on dozens of people jumping up and down, even if they are as tired as dogs, they may still be bad films.
