After watching TF5 released in the early morning, 10 years have passed since the first film in 2007.
This popular IP successfully appeared on the screen that year, igniting the feelings of the old fans, and at the same time bringing a considerable number of new fans.
In the summer vacation of 2007, my good friend and I were in a movie theater with ordinary conditions, and the heartbeat of the Autobots who were deforming and set off on the screen accelerated. preference……
After the release of one movie every two years, I have both the second Optimus Prime Woods War, which was briefly sacrificed and finally revived and erupted, and the third tragic and tragic death of Iron Tin being betrayed by the trusted leader Yu Natural Enemy. The four male protagonists changed their story lines and took a new look. Although the hard and broad implantation and the solidification of the plot routines have been criticized a lot, they can be regarded as laying a little foundation for the sequel, and at the same time provide an opportunity for the display and introduction of the original world.
During this period, with the rapid development of shooting technology and the continuous optimization of various viewing conditions, the director's personal style of fancy explosions and deformation special effects can be more and more presented to the audience with better effects.
The fifth film in the series is released, whether it is filmed with IMAX cameras, or the highest budget of 260 million US dollars since the series, these pre-publicity seems to indicate that the special effects of the film will still be gorgeous and shocking. What is even more gratifying is that, considering the introduction and launch of the new plot, it is clear that 9 screenwriters participated in the polishing of the script in the promotion.
So what is the actual impression after watching the zero-point field?
All I can say is no comment!
No, it is big, lost, so, hope!
Let's start with the plot:
Why do you mention the plot first when you know the popcorn? It may be because the flags of the first 9 screenwriters are fluttering in the wind. I can't say that they are clear about the design of the plot, but the fight in the plot is real.
Most of the plots in the previous movies were criticized for being too "simple" without new ideas, but this time TF5 has been on the road to the black hole of the plot.
Inheriting the plot of the fourth part, but it is not clear that the previous part is not clear, and the story of the new chapter is opened.
At the beginning of a new chapter of the series of movies, it is not uncommon for such problems to occur, especially since the original Transformers has already built a huge system, and the construction of the movie world framework does require a lot of effort.
However, this is too prominent in TF5. The first feeling after watching it is "rush", the progress is too fast, there are too many things to talk about, but it takes time to display special effects scenes, and it takes time to place advertisements. The length of the film is only 150 minutes. (It's not too short), so the plot will be advanced very quickly.
It's not a big problem for the main actors to act. When they should be dazed, they are dazed. , I was overwhelmed by the water, and I had a mission in the next second, carrying a gun to save the world, especially the blackening of Optimus Prime, which was sold before the release. Has been pushed forward in a trance.
Also because of the rush, many plots lack a sense of integrity, and a movie seems to be forced out of small paragraphs. For example, the little girl at the beginning, in the end, it makes people feel that there is nothing to do without this character. It is simply added to have a child image, which is completely incomparable to the little Wolverine in Logan. This is the case with human characters, and the portrayal of Transformers in it is also the same, destroying everything. As the detective said in the movie: "He (Optimus Prime) didn't even have time to say hello to me." The so-called, I don't know, I thought I was watching the robot version of Fast and Furious.
Everyone understands that the main line is evil, but the details will make people feel plausible, not to mention the display of the original world structure.
Now for the characters:
The classic characters that have appeared in the previous films are relatively familiar to everyone who has seen them, but the new Transformers characters appearing in each film are also one of the charms of this series of movies (and their models).
So how is the character portrayal of the Transformers in this film?
Too, like, people, too.
Is this a disadvantage? I can't say it well.
For a long time, the movie has been trying to give different Transformers different language styles and personality habits, and at the same time let the mechanical body play gag with human characteristics, which not only makes jokes, but also enriches the character image, which is undoubtedly a kind of multi-purpose. Way.
But since the last movie, the movie has been intentionally or unintentionally funny. During the viewing process of this movie, some Transformers' behaviors and dialogues were shown to be more anthropomorphic for convenience and fun. Mr. Hopkins, who contributed a good performance here, this anthropomorphism makes me feel inconsistent. Here you can think about the dialogue between some Transformers, and then make up for the black comedians in some movies that you have seen before: "Hey man! What's wrong!?" The dialogue Orz...
Also because of too much anthropomorphism, it is easier to have the illusion that humans are humans when watching the movie, and Transformers are still humans when they come out. Just show me a soldier with a gun and a plane? (And there are many Transformers who are paddling even when they appear on the stage. Optimus Prime is handsome, paddling is also very good, and he spreads his hands.) Without that layer of metal texture, anthropomorphism will only be a matter of seeking fish, even if it creates a laugh There are also many that are easy to feel boring.
Finally, the special effects:
In the film reviews of the previous films, there are other aspects that are not good, and the special effects can always come out with a positive evaluation attitude.
However, in this film, although the special effects are still shocking, it is difficult to feel amazing. In recent years, there have been more and more special effects blockbusters. Although everyone recognizes the emotional effects of the TF series, even fans will have aesthetic fatigue, and they will I look forward to experiencing the blood surging when I first heard the sound effects of "Kakakaka..." in the cinema.
