The Reaping evaluation action

"The Reaping" is a work with great expectations, but after its official release, the word-of-mouth and box office were mediocre. The film is not completely unattractive. The problem is that it is a movie composed of 90 points of special effects, 70 points of plot, and 50 points of rhythm. The film reproduces the plague of locusts and the disaster of fire on the big screen. In particular, the visual effects of the overwhelming locusts are refreshing. The effects of horror and horror are delivered intuitively with the help of computer special effects, and the behind-the-scenes team of the film is controlled. Filmmaker Joe Silver naturally has a guarantee for special effects; the screenwriter Hayes Brothers contributed a more qualified script after the movie "Horror Wax Museum". The setting of Angels and Satan is difficult because of the theme of the movie. The concept of the suspense town is quite good. However, the movie "Detective of the Final Thorns" has the jade in front, which slightly reduces the freshness of the film. The film has a poor grasp of the rhythm. The director Stephen Hawkins obviously brought the habit of shooting TV into "The Reaping". The details are too cumbersome. Most of the first half of the plot is procrastinated, and the latter is too fast for a short period. This became the fatal wound of the film. The sound and picture level of the film is average, the video is slightly grainy, the clarity is affected to a certain extent, the color performance is acceptable, the black level diving is basically up to the standard, and some night scenes and indoor scenes also have good performance. The special effects scenes of the film are still quite important for sound effects. They have done their homework in dynamic sound effect positioning and detail capture. In the last scene of a fireball from the sky, the sense of protection of the entire sound field is enough, but if there is a DTS soundtrack, it is enough. The icing on the cake .
