Compared to the packed theaters where "Gravity" was shown, the performance of "Jason Bourne" which was released at the same time was much worse.

Although Jeremy Renner is a familiar face in Hollywood and has starred in films such as "Mission Impossible 4" and "The Avengers", he has not starred in many movies that have carried the box office on their own.

This time, taking over Matt Damon in "Jason Bourne" is an opportunity. If the film performs well at the box office and he makes a few more films, he will be able to become a first-line male star.

But unfortunately, "Jason Bourne" encountered "Gravity", and it was Gilbert Jr.'s "Gravity".

Although Jeremy Renner worked hard to promote it, the audience just liked to watch Gilbert Jr.'s movies.

The audience also has reason to say, isn't Jeremy Renner's most famous role Hawkeye, also a collaboration with Gilbert Jr.? What qualifications do you have to compete with Gilbert Jr.?

Therefore, the two movies were unsurprisingly decided on the winner at the midnight show, a place where box office appeal and number of fans are highly valued.

However, Universal Pictures is not too worried and believes that the film will still be able to compete with "Gravity" in its first weekend.

Moreover, the two films have different themes, so the competition is not too great and there is no conflict.

In addition, Universal Pictures believes that the film "Gravity" was rushed, which may lead to insufficient promotion of the film or the film becoming a half-finished product.

However, "Jason Bourne" has gone through a complete production and promotion cycle, so there is enough time and it may be able to compete with it.

Universal Pictures overestimated "Jason Bourne" and underestimated "Gravity."

They didn't expect that what the media and film critics who had watched the preview said was true.

Yes, there were cases of receiving red envelopes, but the high quality of the film is real, and they did not lie for the red envelopes.

But unfortunately, in this day and age, due to too much false propaganda, the credibility of the media and film critics has declined a bit.

But it doesn’t matter, this weekend “Gravity” will prove everything.

After waiting in line for a long time, Charlie and Jessica finally found their seats and sat down, waiting for the movie to start.

Charlie looked around and found that there were quite a few people. This IMAX theater could seat about 600 people, and Charlie found that it was basically full.

This is normal, as Gilbert Jr.'s box office appeal is among the best in Hollywood.

Coupled with the fans of Anne Hathaway and Tom Cruise, and the fact that this theater is located in a bustling area of ​​Los Angeles, it is normal to have such a large flow of people.

But Charlie thinks these fans will be disappointed tonight because the poor effects of the film will ruin their expectations.

It didn't take long. After ten minutes of waiting and advertisements, the film got to the point.

The first thing that appears is the Disney logo and the logo of Melon Film Studios, accompanied by a rapid and deep background music.

Then a line of text appeared on the screen, simple and powerful.

"600 kilometers from Earth."

"The temperature fluctuates between -148 degrees and +258 degrees Fahrenheit."

“There is no medium through which sound can travel.”

"There is no atmospheric pressure."

“Life cannot survive.”

Then the title "GRAVITY" appears in capital letters, and the film's opening scene ends.

Charlie was still disdainful. This is common sense. You need to tell me through a movie? And you still say it's not shoddy?
However, the rapid music stopped abruptly, and Charlie's disdainful look turned into shock. His mouth opened wide, forming an O shape that could even fit an ostrich egg...

Why did such a big change happen? Because Charlie was shocked by the earth that occupied half of the screen.

With the IMAX 3D effect, the earth seems to be within reach, and you can even see the stars next to it. "Oh my God, this is so beautiful."

A movie fan couldn't help but sigh, and some viewers even reached out to touch the earth, but touched nothing.

The film captured the audience's attention with such a shocking opening that they didn't even notice that there was no sound after the title appeared.

It was not until the camera zoomed in as the earth rotated that the sound of radio communication gradually came over.

It wasn't until he heard the call from astronaut Kowalski, played by Tom Cruise, that Charlie realized that this was actually a long shot.

There is not a single edit, it is a complete eighteen-minute long shot.

O! M! G!

Charlie almost called God, he admitted that he was wrong, very wrong. Movies are about industry and science, but little Gilbert is no longer talking about these, he is not a human being.

Because humans are not capable of such a thing, to shoot such an exciting film in just a few months.

At this moment, Charlie thought that even if the latter part of the film was a piece of shit, it would be worth the money just for the 18 minutes of super shocking long shots.

Not only him, but also the passers-by who were influenced by the black fans were also shocked.

The cinema was very quiet, so quiet that apart from the gradual sounds of the film, you could also hear your own rapid breathing and heartbeat.

This is because the brain senses excitement and secretes dopamine and adrenaline, which makes the heart beat faster and the breathing quicken.

Charlie even felt that the opening eighteen minutes were the most beautiful and shocking shots in film history, unparalleled.

But this beauty did not last long, and soon the astronauts faced a crisis. A satellite was hit and turned into fragments, and the fragments hit more satellites and produced more fragments.

Under the 3D effect, the flying debris appears so real.

Charlie looked at a piece of debris rushing towards him and involuntarily closed his eyes and began to dodge, as if his head would be pierced by the debris in the next moment.

When he realized that he was watching a movie, Charlie couldn't help but laugh.

The 3D effect of the film is so good and realistic that people can't help but immerse themselves in it. Look at the audience around you, they are swaying left and right with the fragments in the film.

Although some viewers who were dizzy with 3D wanted to vomit, they still insisted on watching the movie with their eyes wide open, not wanting to miss any frame.

When the first impact of space debris ended, Charlie found his palms were sweaty when he looked at Ryan Stone, played by Anne Hathaway, who was spinning helplessly in space in a space suit.

The effect was so amazing that he couldn't help but get nervous.

He was not the only one who felt this way. Everyone was shocked by the unparalleled visual performance and shocking effects of "Gravity".

Normally when watching other commercial films, we would occasionally have a conversation, but if it’s not good, we might just chat the whole time and not pay any attention to what the movie is about.

But watching this movie will make people reluctant to look away and keep their eyes fixed on the big screen the whole time.

As for chatting? Sorry, don't bother me. I'm not in the mood to chat with you now.

Jessica's soft and boneless little hand that I've been thinking about for half a month? Sorry, I'm watching a movie now and I'm not in the mood to hold your hand.

Fortunately, Charlie is not the first person to have this idea, including Jessica, more than 600 fans in the audience, and fans all over the United States.

At this moment, no one wants to move their eyes away from the big screen, because missing a picture would be a crime.

Yes, the movie "Gravity" is so exaggerated and attractive to the audience. (End of this chapter)
