Form over content? Formless?

Before watching the movie, I didn't know it was a dc movie. Originally I didn't even plan to watch this movie because I thought the cover and the name were weird. But after reading his profile, he told the legendary story of a heroine, so I couldn't help but open it.

Let me tell you my opinion!

1. The actress's skills are very good, and it feels a bit like seeing the protagonist of "Joker".

2. When I wear a mask, I think of "V for Vendetta", and any movie wearing a mask in the future may think of V for Vendetta, which is very classic.

3. The heroine has exaggerated makeup and eccentric personality.

4. The style of the picture is very bright, the color is relatively strong, and the color is bold, similar to "Pain and Glory". Pain and Glory even felt a little abrupt in the use of color.

5. The BGM is very good, the rhythm is good, and the sense of substitution is strong, similar to "Top Students" and "La La Land"

6. The action choreography is very exciting, but it is a bit fake, similar to "Speed ​​Attack", I have to praise the domestic action movie, which is much better than this.

7. The movie style is good, humorous and funny, lighthearted.

8. The disadvantage is that the plot is not good. How should I put it, such as customs clearance is too simple, maybe I didn't understand it. But at least the plot is bleak for the rest of the highlights.

9. The film lacks depth and feels like a good film.

To sum up, the main theme of the film may be: justice only looks at the result, not the process.

Why do you say this? You see that the protagonist has killed so many people, and it is hard to understand that he is not caught by the police. But it may also be the world of comics, which cannot be thought of with traditional logic. It is comics after all.

Although I haven't read the original book, but I feel that the movie should take the shape of the original book out. But the lack of depth, no fascination.

Overall, I feel that this film is still very good, and it is a film with more form than content. Worth a look.

Movies whose form is greater than content, such as "The Party at Southern Station", "The Whistleblower", "My Motherland and Me", "I am not the God of Medicine", "1917" and so on.

For this type of film, I don’t think it’s necessary to be too demanding about the content. The form of this film is unique, and the style of this film is unique. That’s enough. Of course, if the content is good, it could not be better.

    Perhaps only the character of Harley Quinn stood up, and the other female characters except for the Asian thieves were more silly, playing Yuan narrative (thinking of this kind of "manipulation") was played off, and basically they were fighting for the sake of fighting. , To fight for a few fairly thoughtful spaces (of course, Playground Fighting is still good), the villain once again died of stupidity, but the most disturbing thing is that the play is too perfunctory and has been played. It's like every family (don't tell me that this is called comics). Just after reading the manual commenting on the fantasy movie, it was almost cut to the blood...

    The plot is still a bit weak, the fight is pretty cool, and the bombing of the chemical plant is really beautiful. I don't like that little kid very much. (20200324, second brush.)
