After the premiere of "Edge of Tomorrow" ended, the famous film critic Roger Ebert published his short review in the "Chicago Sun".

"For a commercial film, Paul Greengrass has injected his own characteristics, fast and sharp editing and bright and compact rhythm, which makes the viewing process full of fascinating pleasure and joy; and Lan Li-Hall is lifelike , The performance of the heavy lifting gives the film a more mature character, and finds a balance between business and art. The most important part is that his chemical reaction with other supporting actors has made the whole film outstanding."

Not just a short review, in fact, Roger also wrote a long review on his official website, putting "Edge of Tomorrow" and "Groundhog Day" together, comparing each other, discussing in depth, and really talking about The topic of reincarnation, and on the basis of Daisy Lucas, further discussed the core theme of the film.

At the end of the long commentary, Roger wrote, “In fact, this is a movie about life, about growth, and about destiny. The director cleverly placed all artistic discussions on the actors, and then focused on shooting. A popcorn commercial movie. Obviously, the director succeeded."

From short reviews to long reviews, Roger evaluated "Edge of Tomorrow" with the highest treatment, and finally made a summary with a super high specification of 90 points, and gave a four-star recommendation index, which even exceeded this summer's The biggest hit "Avengers", this authoritative film critic's admiration and praise can be seen.

This also brought the "Edge of Tomorrow" media review to eighty-one points in one go, which completely detonated the 2012 summer vacation.

Eighty-one points, a full eighty-one points! Amazing!

After comparison, the position of "Edge of Tomorrow" is clear at a glance. This is a commercial work that is comparable to "Dark Knight" and "Avatar", and the North American box office of the latter two exceeded US$400 million, which really detonated the market. ; At the same time, the latter two have both entered the competition for the awards season that year.

Although the box office results of "Edge of Tomorrow" are not yet known, what is certain is that professional film critics continue to pursue it!

In addition to professional film critics, the word-of-mouth of "Edge of Tomorrow" also ushered in a full explosion. The freshness index of Rotten Tomatoes reached 95%, and the score reached 8.4 points. 295 media participated. The commentary still maintains such a high level. For commercial films, it is really rare and valuable, once again reminiscent of the "Avengers" that is currently being shown.

After the premiere, the media review and the Rotten Tomatoes Index are all criteria for evaluating a movie, because the audience base is not enough, and other criteria are temporarily unavailable. However, after the premiere weekend ends, the "edge of tomorrow" is in the rest. The indicators also ushered in a full-blown explosion.

The IMDB score has reached an incredible 8.6 points, and it has entered the list of 250 classic movies with great momentum. It has made it into the top 30 and temporarily settled in the 27th, the first one. One is a "very suspect", and the next one is "This killer is not too cold." The sturdy momentum is simply jaw-dropping.

At the same time, the popcorn index on the Rotten Tomatoes website handed over 98% of the answers, and the theater score also got the highest level of "A+"-this is the "Avengers" since the beginning of 2012. After that, the second movie with the highest score in the theater.

How rare is "A+"? For the whole year of 2011, only six films received such scores, and one appeared in an average of two months!

The statistical object of the cinema score is every ordinary audience who walks into the cinema. Their evaluation has the most intuitive and effective effect on the box office trend of commercial films. "A+" is almost equivalent to full marks, impeccable full marks, any A movie with such a score is worth looking forward to in the future at the box office. By the way, the theater score of "Avatar" is "A".

From professional film critics to senior fans, from public film critics to ordinary audiences, "Edge of Tomorrow" has truly ushered in a full line of word-of-mouth popularity. Such achievements have reached a new high in Lan Li's career, as well as all other actors and actresses. A new high for the crew! The momentum is even more ferocious than the "Avengers"!

Any repetition seems bleak, just list all the scores, this is the best deterrent, enough to make every competitor intimidated.

The fact is also true, the other two works in the super schedule fell into a slump and were completely suppressed.

"Prometheus", media review, 65 points; Rotten Tomatoes Index, 73%, score 7; Popcorn Index, 68%; IMDB score, 7 points; Cinema score , B.

"Madagascar 3", media review, 60 points; Rotten Tomatoes Index, 79%, score 6.8; Popcorn Index, 73%; IMDB score, 6.9; Cinema Score, A.

In short, "Prometheus" is relatively dominant among professional reviews, while "Madagascar 3" is more affirmed among ordinary audiences.

The most likely result of such a situation is that "Prometheus" is applauded but not popular, which is very similar to the trend of the "Alien" series; while "Madagascar 3" is not popular, and the trend is basically the same as that of the first two movies in the series. Coincide.

However, the box office trend of the movie market is elusive, and the book calculations on paper still cannot be converted into box office numbers after all. Outstanding word-of-mouth, actually hit the street; or word-of-mouth hit the pot, the actual harvest, such actual cases are countless, in the final analysis, the conversion ratio of word-of-mouth and box office, this is elusive.

Now, the darling of the academy, Lan Li seems to be making progress. Along this road, this is definitely the hottest focus of attention this summer.

Step by step, "Edge of Tomorrow" has never been optimistic about the abyss, turning the situation bit by bit, first at the premiere, seizing the commanding heights of the topic; and then on the feedback word of mouth, with an absolute advantage. . The strong momentum is almost unstoppable, and the potential to soar into the sky has exploded.

If "Edge of Tomorrow" achieves a big box office victory, then Lan Li will return Will go further and truly rank among the top!

Naturally, all eyes were focused on the weekend box office rankings in the second week of June.

Can the premiere box office data predicted by the media be realized now? Can "Prometheus" break the shackles of word-of-mouth and achieve a counterattack? Can "Madagascar 3" continue the advantages of the audience's reputation and create good results? Can "Edge of Tomorrow" make a breakthrough by taking advantage of the excitement and reputation of the premiere?
