Elektra evaluation action
2021-12-12 08:01
The picture of the film is as gorgeous as a beautiful cover, and the overall color is very strong. Coupled with the gorgeous and violent action scenes, it can be said that the picture of the film alone, the rigid relationship between the characters and the naive storyline, may be really negligible. The picture quality is basically acceptable. The bright tones and good contrast are well mastered, except that the edges of the colors are not very clear. Perhaps this is the effect the film pursues. The use of lens and light is good, of course, this is also due to computer special effects, such as the hunting and chasing that resembles the style of video games, but perfect special effects are rare in the film, and the middle of the film is relatively dull. It also affected the visual style of the entire movie. In addition, the dark scenes are always shrouded in a gauze-like haziness, with a certain sense of layering, and not calm enough, which affects the mood of watching the movie.
A story about sexual desire, jealousy, and deceit may be a bit anti-war. This is a typical work of Dindu Ballas, a typical monologue, a rendering of the atmosphere, and a bit of ambiguous cultural charm.
