      a movie novel

      Taking the best special effects is indeed a matter of course, and the box office fiasco is also reasonable. Because the director and screenwriter forgot that this is a movie and not a retelling of a novel, the film completely adopts the narrative structure of the novel, and the slow one is not generally slow. Occasionally a small orgasm is also over in the blink of an eye. It's not that I'm shooting a literary film, and I don't have a place to catch people's hearts.

      This movie is...

      The film Dark Matter

      is a good comedy film, without the brilliance of humanity and without very touching emotions, leaving people without any ideas.

      I don't mean to criticize this film, because I still feel uncomfortable in the process of watching it. There are beauties, big names, and plots. The sustenance is also a very popular sci-fi, which is fresh.
      The addition of these elements is already very watchable, but the old-fashioned plot is always inevitable, the evil...

      Reviewing the "Golden Compass"

      In 2008 or 2009, it was recommended by the English teacher in the English listening class. Now, I am so moved and happy. Make the weekend feel good all day long. fight for freedom. Only those who have no confidence and are afraid of others' disbelief will want to use authority to control others. I really like the world there, everyone has an elf. And the little girl not only has a elf, but also an armed bear. It feels like what I should have imagined, with both wisdom and strength.

      No one can guess what the animal that his soul has transformed into will be?

      The film disappointed me as a whole. It wasted such vivid and magnificent special effects, while the magic and plot that I was most looking forward to seemed very thin or even unreasonable. In retrospect, what exactly is the film about? Is it the relationship between the souls formed by humans and animals, but there is no in-depth description and close-up of this relationship; is it to say that the little girl has saved people with wisdom and courage, but what is the purpose of the...

      20080528 At 5:20 pm, Jin Yi is quite ordinary. Although there are many stars, it is all supported by special effects.

    Movie plot

Lila ( played by Dakota Bleu Richards ) has lived with her uncle who is the president of Jordan University since she was a child. She is enthusiastic, brave and full of justice. One day Mrs. Colt ( Nicole Kidman ) is going to the north, hoping Lila can be with her. Curious Lila happily agreed. Before leaving, her...

    Behind the scenes gags

    1. Philip Pullman, the author of the original novel, originally hoped that Jason Isaac played the Earl of Asriel, Nicole Kidman played Marisa Carter, and Samuel Jackson played Lee Si Gusby...Unfortunately, the original author did not have the right to choose the role. In the end, only Kidman fulfilled his wish.
    2. The name Serafina Pacora was borrowed from Philip Pullman when he browsed the phone book.
    3. Director Chris Weitz decided to...
