Comment on "Around the Earth in Eighty Days"

Just finished traveling around the earth for 80 days.
Personally, I feel that this movie still has the feeling of a traditional film frame. The protagonist has gone through many hardships and finally got a big harvest.

Let's take a look at the type of this video first.

The fighting scene was sufficient, and the "action" was not discussed.

The "adventure" component is slightly less, or not rendered.
Thrills are not enough. Personally, I still prefer the thrilling feeling of "Reaper is coming 1."
How can it be called "adventure" if the thrill is not enough.

There are still a lot of laughs in the play, which fits the label of "comedy".
The words "family" are only slightly inscribed in the Chinese part.
The thread of "love" is not very clear, but it still does not affect viewing and understanding.
I think the "Western" is obviously unreliable, and there is too little time.

Then I don't like the special effects of crossing the screen.
Too contrived.
Untrue.
Even if it is always using that kind of map-like animation, it is also very interesting.
With such a special effect, I feel a little "Alice in Wonderland".

Finally, praise it, after all, it also promotes a lot of traditional Chinese culture-Chinese Kung Fu.

(I finally know why the mention of China and Jackie Chan reminds me of Chinese Kung Fu)

In short, it can be watched as a light-hearted and humorous drama, and the final happy ending can also make you feel at ease after eating and watching. Sit in front of the computer and digest.

  • [Jean Michel is sitting inside a Heath Robinson contraption, wearing a tin helmet]

    Phileas Fogg: Today is the day I will finally achieve what has been deemed impossible: man *can* break the fifty mile per hour speed barrier. And you, you're lucky enough to be part of it here.

    Jean Michel: [unconvincingly, looking very frightened] It's jolly, sir.

    Phileas Fogg: Yes, we will make history - or we will die trying.

    Jean Michel: Die?

    Phileas Fogg: This is *very* exciting.

    Jean Michel: That's it! I refuse to be catapulted, electrocuted or have my internal organs disrupted any longer! I quit!

    [Jean Michel takes off his helmet and backpack, and storms off]

    Jean Michel: He is a very sick man.

    Phileas Fogg: The electrocution was not my fault. You refused to wear the rubber underpants.
