Want to hear something new? Then take a look at "The Return of Tarzan: Dangerous Battle in the Jungle" (hereinafter referred to as "Tarzan")!
The story of "Tarzan" tells that after ten years of leaving the Congolese jungle and returning to the British aristocratic society, Tarzan set foot on the Congolese again. The main line of the story is that the Belgian king's cronies, played by "Uncle Wa", intend to steal Congo diamonds, and frame Mount Tai as the main line, and start a desperate battle to protect the jungle.
The main feature of the movie is only 90 minutes long. Director David Yates (director of the four "Harry Potter" films) has a good grasp of the rhythm of the whole movie. story, and an overview of the external era environment. It can be said that the rhythm of the story is tight without losing the plot and background, and it is worthy of Warner Pictures to spend 180 million US dollars to let David shoot a new story.
"Tarzan" will have better visual effects than the same theme jungle movie "Fantasy Forest" a few months ago, mainly due to the fact that a lot of money was spent to create an artificial jungle when the film was filmed, and better photography techniques were used to make the Congolese jungle imitate. as in front of you.
In addition to the jungle, the film also added the part of African aborigines, which is not only more grounded than the previous Taishan story, but also the language with local characteristics can make you more immersive.
In the current era of special effects, CG special effects are naturally inevitable. Although the animals in this film are also composed of CG, the significantly less anthropomorphic settings make them look more realistic.
In the cast, the person who plays "Tarzan" is Alexander Skarsgard, who has a slender body and has long blonde hair, which is quite similar to the animation prototype of the year. The unique aristocratic atmosphere on his body is charming enough when he puts on a suit robe, but when you see him taking off his coat, you know his fatal temptation. Jumping and running in the jungle with a whole body of tendon, the wild male charm is as wild as this African land.
Margot Robbie, who is well known in the country as "Harley Quinn", became Tarzan's wife in this film. Don't look at her sexiness already bursting, but in this film, she is basically covered by a long skirt. If you want to see her sexiness, you should leave it to "Suicide Squad". Of course, Jane, played by Robbie in this film, is definitely not a vase absolute. Especially in the table confrontation with "Uncle Wa", the maturity, stability and courage are vividly performed.
"Uncle Wa" Christopher Waltz's performance was very good, and a wily conspirator looked like he wanted to go up and make up for it. And "Director" Samuel Jackson is a joke in this film, bringing a lot of lighthearted laughter to the film.
After getting rid of the previous origin story, the new story has a different meaning. The colonists were eager to rule by violence, to obtain natural resources and enslave the indigenous people, and "Tarzan" became the leader and hero of this resistance force.
Obviously, the film is criticizing the ruthlessness and brutality of the colonial rule, the reckless ambition to satisfy personal desires, and the ruthlessness of coveting and plundering wealth. At the same time, this also makes us wonder whether the historical problems left by the colonial rule in the past are related to the refugee crisis that broke out in Europe in recent years?
The image of "Tarzan" created by this film has become a heroic image of saving the land of Africa. In today's world surrounded by superheroes, there are probably too few heroes who dare to punch to the head, fight close to the body, and are wild and primitive. In fact, such a down-to-earth hero makes people feel more close and likeable.
"The Return of Tarzan" not only shows the wild atmosphere of the Congolese jungle, but also creates a new story, a new legend. Now that remakes and sequels are in vogue now, David Yates is the director of the "Harry" series, and "Tarzan Returns" is worth your wildness this summer!
