How do foreigners react to Stephen Chow's films?

I saw Changjiang No.7 in Toronto/Author: Ren Woxing Star.

I watched Kung Fu in a cinema in Toronto.

/f？ kz= 14073490

On April 22nd, North America was Friday, at 13:00 pm, and I watched the first screening of Kung Fu in this cinema.

I have been waiting for this moment for a long time. I even bought a ticket two days in advance. When buying tickets, I carefully asked a white mm: Do you have tickets for Kung Fu on Friday?

White mm looked at me like a monster and said, of course.

People here buy movies on the spot.

I have watched the movie of Master Xing countless times, but Kung Fu is the first Stephen Chow movie I will watch in the cinema. I am also very happy that Xingye's film finally entered the North American market and was released across the board. And I can give a little support with a small ticket.

I am still looking forward to seeing the audience talking and cheering excitedly after entering the cinema. I also fantasized that after the movie, all the audience stood up and applauded warmly.

When I rushed into the dark cinema in the daytime with excitement and fear, I stood in the middle of the aisle and suddenly turned around, just like the star in "shaolin soccer" rushed into the official football field for the first time to participate in the competition, imagining shouting at the dark crowd in the audience: Hello!

At that moment, I also fantasized that someone would throw rotten bananas and angrily scolded me: don't stop me from watching the play! Or: Oh, what took you so long? !

Shit! I rubbed my eyes and thought there was no one in the cinema. Then I stopped for a while and found scattered people in every corner. I sat in the last row and counted, there is a cinema in Nuoda, plus my husband and wife, only 15 people.

There are about 5 people from China, and the rest 10 are mostly Indians and Pakistanis. There seems to be no white people. This is really unfortunate news.

"The first game, you just wait and see."

I find China people very disappointing. As far as my friends and their own friends are concerned, everyone has seen Kung Fu, and more than a dozen people relish it. If you let them spend money to go to the movies again, they may not work as hard as I do.

In other words, about one in fifteen people in China will go to see Kung Fu. It's not that they don't want to see it, but they have already seen it, and they don't want to spend this money to see it again.

In North America, Master Xing is a newcomer. We China people who have watched his films for many years for comfort and fun don't support him. Who will support him? I am very proud to have such an excellent film shown in the theaters in North China, which shows people's intelligence and wisdom and promotes my traditional oriental martial arts culture. However, there are few people like me.

Everyone watches Stephen Chow movies, and nobody gives Stephen Chow a penny.

Master Xing, we Chinese all over the world like it, but,

Hong Kong people raised you.

I have watched the DVD of Kung Fu five times, but when I went to the cinema, I was surprised that it was as fresh as the first time. With the development of the plot, I felt an unprecedented strong shock, both from the fighting scenes and the emotions of the characters. It's really exciting, touching and enjoyable.

While watching it, I silently said to myself: How can Stephen Chow make such an excellent film? This is not a movie at all, it's a dream, it's a dream. Only in dreams can you see such a scene. Even the words in Jin Yong's novels can only describe the limit of reverberation, which makes us daydream there. However, Stephen Chow's Kung Fu shows a real scene. He let you see with your eyes what you thought was just a tacit understanding.

No one knows whether he is the incarnation of the gods or the messenger of hell.

Even my wife, who has always opposed me to see Stephen Chow, has become a little sheep around me, with an enviable tenderness in her eyes.

From her question, I know that when watching DVD at home before, he was simply absent-minded and purely perfunctory, but now it is the first time to watch it in the cinema.

In the cinema, as long as it is a good movie, it will definitely attract your attention.

This is the advantage of the cinema.

The film is a Cantonese soundtrack, and China friends who can't understand it can only watch English subtitles with Indians and Pakistanis.

Because I am very familiar with the plot of Kung Fu, I pay attention to the English subtitles when I watch it. I feel it is difficult for you to find any jokes just from the translated language.

Oh, there is a place where the axe gang touts the younger brother in the car, saying that neighbors don't have to sleep and have to go to work the next day. Everyone is laughing.

Another place is that the bomber spoke English before he died. The charterer told him to speak Chinese, and everyone was laughing.

To tell the truth, it's really difficult to translate the names of the characters and the martial arts routines, and there's a saying that "a piece of liver is heartbroken, and there are plenty of fish in the sea to find a bosom friend", which can't translate that feeling.

Fire Cloud Evil God translated The Beast, Yang Guo and Little Dragon Girl translated Paris and Helen of Troy, and no one laughed. The translation of Tathagata Palm is "Buddha Palm".

So what really makes China and Indians in the cinema laugh is the action. What really touches people is the word "love".

This is a world language, no matter which nation or race speaks what language, it will be deeply attracted and moved. As for other trivial matters, the so-called truth and value, orientals think so, but other nationalities and races with different cultural backgrounds may look different.

Therefore, Stephen Chow's kung fu grasps "action" and "emotion" and can become an excellent film in the world.

Now let me recall 15 the audience's hilarious reaction when watching Kung Fu. Strictly speaking, kung fu is not a comedy. It is an action movie and a serious drama. However, we are all used to seeing Stephen Chow's films as comedies.

Since I can't see the audience's facial expressions, I will tell you when I hear the laughter, which may be different from the domestic audience.

The first laugh came from the sauce storm. He stood there unconvinced, and as a result, he was patted on the slippers by the chartered girl. At this point, everyone laughed. I guess even foreigners think the sauce is too handsome at this time.

Speaking of sauce storm, he is really a great man. He led the charterer, and his blackmail caused the disaster in Zhulong Town. Of course, he brought out a master who is unparalleled in ten thousand years. Of course, he is a fake, but he has already laid the groundwork. There are peerless masters above ten thousand people. The English translation is called "one in a million" or when Master Xing finally appeared, he was called "that one" by the charterer.

The second time, the chartered woman was beaten by a fat woman and fell downstairs. Maybe the action is too exaggerated. Everyone was laughing, but they didn't finish laughing. As a result, a flowerpot fell and was still in bud, and they continued to laugh unexpectedly.

As for the plots that people in China find funny, such as renting a husband to check Zhu's body, saying that a meteor kissed Jane and peeked at four aunts taking a bath, foreigners didn't respond at all.

The third time was the most impressive serial laugh. The whole audience was laughing loudly. A Xing singled out Pig Dragon City Village. After being beaten by the eldest sister-in-law with onions and vomiting blood, she began to pick on the old, the weak and the sick, and she laughed at the scene. First, I found a short man. As a result, the short man became a bench. When he stood up, everyone smiled and picked an old man. As a result, he was muscular and continued to laugh. Finally, he finally found a child, and the result was very strong. These foreigners are laughing happily.

This may be a worldwide joke.

The fourth time, after the axe gang brought people, the chartered woman said, "It's raining, and the clothes are collected." Like a cartoon character, she ran back to the floor and lay in bed. Everyone laughed at the axe gang and the residents' surprised expressions. This animation style is effective.

The fifth time, A Xing and the fat pig ran back to the village in the city and killed the chartered woman, which was also a serial laugh. Especially in the knife throwing part, Master Xing was stabbed, and everyone laughed. The fat pig was thrown and stabbed again, and everyone laughed and threw it to the handle. The knife was left on A Xing, which was very funny. When I pulled it out, I said I was embarrassed to stab it back. Everyone smiled and raised the snake box. It's funny that the snake landed on A Xing. A Xing said, "I don't trust you anymore." As a result, everyone is very funny. The fat woman ran after A Xing in a hot wheels, but she didn't laugh as much as before. But in the end, she hit the billboard with a beautiful body, and then slipped flat, and everyone was laughing. We've seen this shot too much. It may be the first time for foreigners to see it.

The third and fifth times were the most impressive laughter in the audience.

The rest are not impressed. Probably, A Xing played with the standard palm potential. He should have fallen, but he didn't. Instead, I punched him. A Xing was surprised, but the audience was laughing.

The fried ghost died and said, "What are you going to do?" The charterer told him to "speak Chinese" and everyone was laughing.

When A Xing and Fat Pig were bullied by gold-rimmed glasses on the tram, they always said that they were "dragon style", "tiger style" and "monkey style".

By the way, there is another joke, which is not funny. It is still the part where the fat woman and the chartered woman get on the axe to help the eldest brother and touts. The tout told the younger brother not to make trouble, the neighbors wanted to sleep, people had to go to work the next day, and they also called people scum. Everyone is laughing. The fat woman motioned for the way, which was also very funny. Finally, the two men put out the fire and drove away. Everyone is laughing, but they can feel it is a knowing smile.

A Xing has just released The Beast from the Abnormal Human Research Center, and the evil fire cloud god is sitting in the lobby of the axe gang. Everyone is laughing at his slippers. A Xing said that as long as it is "clean", it should be like "top black boy".

A Xing's head was hit by a "beast" on the floor, and he also hit the evil spirits with a small stick. Foreigners are laughing, but it is not obvious, and there is the part of stepping on toes. I thought they would laugh, not much.

In the last paragraph, when the beggar appeared in the picture again, everyone began to laugh and took out more martial arts cheats. Everyone laughed at the little boy's slightly demented expression when he was tempted.

Basically, the above is the cartoon reaction of multi-ethnic audience when I watched Kung Fu in the cinema. There is still a difference with our pure China audience.

Collecting some of these materials may be useful for Xingye's next Hollywood action movie with comedy.

There is a young man from India and Pakistan in my row. He looks like a student with a big handful of popcorn in his hand. His laughter is the loudest and most continuous among the audience. He laughs when others laugh, and he laughs when others don't. When people laughed, the popcorn shook and some fell to the ground. That's a real pity. I deeply despise Stephen Chow, a non-China person, who can enjoy watching movies so much.

Ok, now let's talk about some shocking scenes, because in these scenes, although everyone didn't laugh, they made the sound of "ah", "yi", "oh" and "ah".

The first scene is that coolies fall into the axe array of hundreds of axe gangs. I guess everyone is worried about him.

In the second scene, the coolie was injured by the sound of the piano and his head fell to the ground.

The third scene is the sound of a bomber rushing into the sky with a gun, and the red tassel gun shakes in the air after picking several swords.

The fourth scene is the scene where the employer plays tricks to break a broken tooth.

In the fifth game, A Xing robs Sargam, and Sargam recognizes A Xing, who runs away and kicks the fat pig.

In the sixth game, the fire cloud demon shot at himself and caught the bullet. Everyone was very surprised. Perhaps these foreigners will not think of such a picture.

In the seventh scene, the evil spirit of Huoyun threw A Xing into the air and punched him in the head. The atmosphere at the scene was very tense. He grabbed A Xing in one hand and clenched his fist in the other.

In the eighth scene, A Xing was pushed into the air by the evil spirits of the cloud of fire, and his back was gently carved. Many people make strange noises. Strange? Surprised? In short, I felt something.

The ninth shot is two giant Tathagata handprints made by A Xing.

In the tenth scene, "That" said to "Beast": "If you want to learn, I will teach you." Then the "beast" knelt down to "that" and said, "Master!" (Chinese is "I give up!" )。

This sentence has English subtitles, less banter and more strength, which is a sudden shock to the audience.

Some friends may be suspicious of the audience reaction I mentioned above, and think that maybe all the laughter came from several China audiences. I said, you are wrong. Because apart from my husband and wife, there seems to be a man and a woman, that is, among a dozen people, except me, China people only make a sound. He sits too far away, but the laughter around him is very close.

Besides, China people are not as fond of and good at expressing themselves as foreigners, and their behavior is more restrained.

After the film ended, the name of the director "Stephen Chow" was printed on the screen, and I immediately gave warm applause. Someone in the front row echoed my applause. I don't know if it's that China buddy. His applause soon disappeared, probably stopped by his girlfriend. My wife teased me, too, but I played it louder and louder until the lights in the cinema came on. I'm from China, and I'm a little shy.

Well, this is the end of the documentary that everyone wants to see. Because the Kung Fu Pictorial in the cinema has been changed to "Now Playing" today, and North American audiences like to watch it impromptu in the cinema, I think the cinema audience showing Kung Fu will be more and more like the audience in the shaolin soccer competition on weekends and in the following days, and will be watched and loved by North American audiences more and more until they become box office champions!
