"Journey to the Center of the Earth 2: Mysterious Island": Can it be more outrageous?

After the first episode of the continuation of the big hit, New Line did not miss the opportunity to launch the second episode. Although Verne's sci-fi scene has been exhausted, the screenwriter can still rack his brains to make a pot. The teenager received a mysterious signal at home and was deciphered by his annoying stepdad. It was probably sent by his grandfather who disappeared many years ago. For the sake of grandpa, for curiosity, for so many unknowns and impossibility, we must go to find out without turning back. The three islands are in one, the size is reversed, the lizard turns into a tyrannosaur, the bee turns into a straight weapon, the volcano spews ten thousand gold, and runs on the land underwater, and the land sinks under the water. Is this the legendary universe super invincible? God-level movie.

Even if Brandon Fisher is severely deformed and unable to play, there is still Dwayne Johnson on the bench. In the first ten to twenty minutes, Johnson's burly figure was indeed the focus of all viewing, and his eyes were not drawn away until the spectacular young girl appeared. As for the funny and ridiculous all kinds of unexpected CG special effects, they are just forgotten. As a dad, the funny dialogue about the responsibilities of me is still worthy of fun. After seeing the terrible giant lizard, the 7-year-old son kept asking me how much time is left for the movie to finish, but he had to perfuse him and the drama was not staged later, and finally managed to let him honestly persist until the end. I don't know what the master Verne would think of the various packaged films in the world. At least this allows us to see that the foreigners' tampering techniques are definitely not inferior to the Chinese.
