Look at the lineup, Paul Bettany, Sienna Guillory, Helen Mirren, Jim Broadbent, is it quite British? Even Helen Mirren, the famous Oscar queen, has also been inserted as a supporting role. The lineup of this film is indeed quite heavy. But is the whole film equally heavy?
Honestly, it's a bit stuck. There is always a feeling of "stuck" and "unsmooth" in rhythm processing, lacking a sense of smoothness and lack of atmosphere. In fact, the characters are quite rich and three-dimensional, and I don't know why they run away in the film, they feel a little stupid. Brendan Fraser continued to repeat his image play. Since "The Mummy", he has hardly seen other outstanding performances. He can't get rid of the adventure king's play style. In addition, the older he gets, the more "broader" his face is. I used to have a slight enthusiasm for him, but now I feel more and more aesthetically tired. In this way, it is even more "stupid".
In fact, the story is quite good. Those who have the SilverTone ability to realize the things in the book. If the story does not only revolve around the "Inkheart", the character story can be developed into more classic literary works, quoting more well-known characters, and the sense of enthusiasm will be even better.
Originally I wanted to continue to say that the plot arrangement of the film was "stupid", but I thought that the film was based on the original work, so it would be inappropriate to say that the film was "stupid". I want to say that DustFinger is so selfish that I don’t know why the father and daughter didn’t know the author of Inkheart for the original 9 years ago. Is the role of Aunt Elinor a bit useless? Farid is from "Alibaba and Forty The thieves who came out of "The Big Thieves" are also a bit useless... But since it is based on the original novel, it is pointless to blame the movie, and the film is really good in character creation. The supporting actors are all very fun, but I wonder if these characters do not know. What is it for?
PS two:
Sienna Guillory, who plays Brendan's wife, is indeed predestined. She just opened her "Helen of Troy" not long ago. Now she has short hair and she is even more beautiful.
Paul Bettany’s wife, Jennfier Connelly, also made a cameo. He played the role of DustFinger’s day and night lover. He kept calling "Come home, Come home." in his mind. It's true.
