Wu Jing's " The Climber " had received a lot of negative reviews before it was even released. Why would this happen? The Climber was a sci-fi action film directed, starred, and co-produced by Wu Jing. It was released in the mainland of China on August 10th, 2020. However, after the film was released, it was widely criticized and questioned. Many viewers thought that the plot and performance were not good enough. Some even thought that it was a "PowerPoint movie." Why did this happen? The following are some possible reasons: 1. Unreasonable plot: Some viewers felt that the plot and setting in the movie were not reasonable enough and lacked logic and credibility. For example, the movie had an existence known as the Chosen One. The lack of scientific basis in the setting confused the audience. 2. Poor performance: Wu Jing's performance in the movie was also criticized by some people who thought that his performance was too exaggerated and not realistic enough. In addition, the performances of the other actors in the movie were not outstanding enough, which affected the overall effect of the movie. 3. Low production quality: The production quality of the climber is not satisfactory. For example, some of the scenes and special effects in the movie were not exquisite enough to make the audience feel uncomfortable. In addition, the movie's soundtracks and sound effects were not outstanding enough, affecting the atmosphere and effect of the entire movie. 4. Insufficient publicity: The promotion of the climber was not sufficient, so the audience did not have enough understanding of its quality and reputation. Some viewers might not have seen enough publicity and promotion in front of the cinema and did not understand the background and reputation of the film, so they doubted its quality. In summary, the reason why The Climber received a lot of bad reviews before it was released could be due to many factors, including the plot, performance, production quality, publicity, and so on. The audience should look at the movie objectively, not believe in some unverified publicity and evaluation, and rationally evaluate the quality and value of the movie.
