      Brainless Magic Movie

      I think, this movie is more suitable to appear on some TVs and make it into a few seasons. It is too wasteful to make a movie because of so much cost. I think as a magic movie, the first thing we should consider is the visual Effects, makeup, special effects, etc. But this film may have a problem with the production cost. The special effects shots in the film are really pitiful. It is more like a work that was tinkered with in my own backyard. After
      watching the whole film, I really wanted...

      stupid

      I rarely smash a movie like this, but this movie is just too idiotic. I don't even know where to start criticizing him. A 14-year-old child, 5 days, looking for 6 SIGN. Each SIGN was found in a few minutes, and it was said that it was amazing. I knew from the beginning that the 6th SIGN was himself, but he didn't realize it until the end. Apart from burning a lot of trees, I haven't seen him have any POWER. To keep saying that I am THE SEVENTH SON OF THE SEVENTH SON is an idiot that makes...

      Dark Rise

      In this house, it is hard to imagine what will happen after walking in. It is inevitable that there will be many coincidences. The three people entered an ordinary room. In the end, after the three of them explored the whole house, strange things would happen. One after another, after watching other plots, I realized that it is just the tomb built at the beginning of the prologue, the dog is watching, the network is a barrier, there is no signal, knowing that this house must be demolished...

      slag

      Can the camera not shake, and the plot can not be nonsense? Magic films also have to pay attention to the structure. At the beginning, a bunch of characters appeared in a daze, and without explaining what they were, they directly introduced themselves to We all old ones, but the cause of the old ones was not clear until the end, and they knew that the old ones were guarding the seeker. And the relationship between the guy buried in the cathedral and the old ones and seekers is unclear....

      The Seeker: Dim Light

      Magic movies have always been my favorite. No, I always like that ancient and magical fantasy adventure. Magic is the fantasy of magic; magic is the summoning of magic.

      Therefore, The Seeker is undoubtedly the movie I am most looking forward to this October.

      The Seeker's subtitle is The Dark is Rising. Judging by the poster, it was rather disappointing. The Seeker clearly stated the identity of the protagonist, while The Dark is Rising explained the theme of the movie,...

      2008-02-01 Rating: 4.4 It's not that the audience is unwilling to accept fantasy films, and even a ten-year-old child cannot be moved by such an empty storyline. The film is worse than last year's "Dragon Knight", a work that can be completely ignored.

    Movie plot

    Change, most likely to bring incredible experiences and encounters. The Stantons leave their familiar and comfortable American city to live in a small town full of surprises in England. The Stanton family believed that such a migration represented their long-cherished wish to change their living environment, but what they could not imagine was that it was the compass of fate that finally brought them back to this place of origin.

    Evaluation action

    The magic charm of the confrontation between light and darkness in the original book is completely lost in the film. It is understandable to want to catch up with the "fashionable bus" of magic literature before the trend subsides, but it is really shameless to come up with such a riddled script to scare people. Seeing people, the classic British style that should have become a feature has been replaced by the stench of cheap Hollywood...

      Will Stanton: Gwen, go back home and don't tell anybody about this. Ok? Go. Just go home.

      Merriman Lyon: You've exhausted your powers! You could've been killed!

      Will Stanton: Well, I got the Sign, didn't I? On my own! I didn't see any of you helping out, Ok?

      Merriman Lyon: You were selfish and irresponsible. Every day, the Dark is tightening its grip. Only you stand in its way.

      Will Stanton: Yeah. You keep telling me that.

      Merriman Lyon: Wait, wait, wait, wait. Stop, stop, stop. I'm sorry. I-If you want to express your feelings, I'll stand here and I'll listen.

      Merriman Lyon: Resist him, Will! You are Will Stanton! You are the Seeker!

      The Rider: Give them to me.

      Will Stanton: No!

      The Rider: Then your time is at an end.

    • Will Stanton: It's over, right?

      Merriman Lyon: Never over, but today is a good day.
