"The Guardian Quartet" was criticized
"The Four Guardians" is a purely entertaining film, and has even been criticized as a bank advertisement, a "film that pays benefits to the sponsor Anh trai say hi".
"The Guardian Quartet" is divided into two intertwined character lines, in which the line of the comedy cast "11th grader" (Tran Thanh) "dominates" with Le Giang, Uyen An, Le Duong Bao Lam, continuously bringing "disaster" to the lives of the couple Quynh Anh (Tieu Vy) and Quoc Anh (Quoc Anh).
It is still a story of a large family, interwoven with the story of a young couple, but mainly humorous. When Tran Thanh does comedy, he always falls into his inherent weakness, which is being wordy, long-winded, and wordy, one story leading to another without even thinking about logic.
“The Guardian Quartet” falls into that weakness, when the script has too many details, the lack of calculation makes it “confused” for the audience. There are many advertisements, and the advertising slogans are repeated over and over again.
Tran Thanh himself shared in advance that this is a movie he "released", with the emphasis on humor and joy, to entertain the audience during Tet.
Therefore, “The Four Guardians” will not cause any controversy like “Mai” did before. When “Mai” was released, social networks were filled with endless debates about whether “Mai” was of good quality, whether “Mai” demonstrated Tran Thanh’s improvement as a director, and whether “Mai” demonstrated any of Tran Thanh’s “professional” qualities.
“The Four Guardians” was released in theaters, selling out tickets like the “Tran Thanh effect” every time he released a movie. There is nothing to argue about. Because obviously, “The Four Guardians” is simply a comedy for entertainment, to watch for fun.
Tran Thanh's calculation
Tran Thanh still has his own calculations with "The Four Guardians", Tran Thanh's wisdom shows his ability to "optimize" the appeal of his films.
Tran Thanh knows how to take advantage of the appeal of the Say Hi Brothers cast when “arranging” them into cameo roles in the film. Quan A.P’s handsomeness, Ali Hoang Duong’s speaking ability, Pham Anh Duy’s “wine” advice, or Negav’s role in the wedding of Thanh An – Phap Kieu (the name of another Say Hi Brother) in the film, all show that Tran Thanh creates surprises with very careful calculations.
Tran Thanh also used the voices of the Say Hi Brothers to make the soundtrack, when the audience could immediately recognize Captain Boy and Erik. Not to mention, the entire Say Hi Brothers appeared "explosively" at the premieres of the movie "The Four Guardians" which also contributed to promoting the movie for Tran Thanh.
Inviting two beauty queens to act in a film at the same time was also a “go-to” problem for Tran Thanh. He chose Tieu Vy and Ky Duyen with careful calculations to match their personalities in real life. Tieu Vy’s innocence and purity matched Quynh Anh’s, while Ky Duyen’s sharpness, maturity and somewhere indifferent beauty helped her have the most outstanding role of Karen in the film.
Receiving funding from the bank is also another calculation of Tran Thanh, so that his movies always sweep the box office, overwhelm rival movies, and set revenue records.
Tran Thanh's full name is Huynh Tran Thanh, born in 1987, is an actor, MC, director and film producer. He continuously creates films that set record revenue such as Bo Gia, Nha Ba Nu, Mai...
This Lunar New Year film season, Tran Thanh has just released The Four Guardians, which he directed and also contributed production capital with the crew of Love by Mistaken Friend.
With that calculation, "Tran Thanh will definitely make a big profit".
