What makes movie successful?

Recently, 'Furious 7' came out obtaining a great reputation from the audiences, which is reported as a successful movie to a certain extent. The definition of the success for a movie could vary differently from its type or genre. For examples, a comedy can be regarded successful if it makes audiences laugh a lot, while documentary aims at indicating the deep truth of some phenomena or objects. A horror movie cannot be considered good if it fails to scare spectators, while a love movie is not a successful one if it is not capable to make viewers feel an impulse to fall in love with somebody.

Nonetheless, regardless of the diverse genres of movies, there is still a general standard to assess whether a move is good or not. Whether the movie can touch our feelings, whether it is educative and whether it manage to mirror the society contribute a lot to the quality of it. Additionally, the plot as well as the characters and the actors in the movie also play critical roles in the assessment of the movie. If a movie can meet the requirement in all the aspects above, the chances are that it will be a real successful movie. Even if some movies may not gain enough popularity due to some other factors, say the esoteric language used in movie and the heartrending mood throughout the whole film which makes people uncomfortable, they can still be successful in a professional perspective.
