This is the best 3D movie I've seen since Avatar

After eating, the girl said to go to the movies. Of course, what I'm most looking forward to is Star Wars, which I've been waiting for almost ten years. Recently, in order to watch 7, I reviewed the first six movies again, but the girl didn't necessarily understand it, so I let her choose. I chose this one.
There's no other reason, just because the ratings are okay and there's an actor I know. I've seen trailers for movies before, I've seen trailers for almost every movie, and I'm a trailer lover. The trailer established my prejudice against the movie. In my impression, this is a movie that you can watch offline if you see it on the Xunlei resource website, and the situation in the theater also confirms my view from the side. There are only a few people. , we can even lie down and watch a full movie.
After experiencing the failure of the WeChat ticket machine, we were seated about 20 minutes in advance to the middle of the last row, and it was strange why they didn't turn on the lights when advertising. And putting a pair of 3D eyepieces on top of the black-framed glasses is an even more uncomfortable factor. The girl went to buy water, and I was bombarded with ads while watching her Old Navy bag. When Zhu Shimao appeared on the big screen to explain the precautions for fire safety, I was a little worried about whether she would miss the opening, and then I was relieved to see the tall figure staggering up the steps with two glasses of drinks. My cup was lemon tea, and I drank bitter lemon seeds from the straw at the end.
The film opens with Philip standing on the torch of the Statue of Liberty and recounting his past, his days as a performer in Paris and his childhood interest in high-altitude walking. I gradually felt that 3D glasses became a burden, but fortunately, the picture and editing of the film were excellent, and I also expressed my opinion to the girl from time to time.
However, when the film entered the implementation stage of the WTO Walking Plan, I discovered that the whole atmosphere had been naturally set off to a point where I had no time to worry about it. The 3D effect is not endless, and only the stitches and needles are embellished where necessary. The girl next to her also leaned over and sighed.
When they walked up to the top floor, the 3D effect created a sense of presence, and the moment the steel cable fell from the tower, the air in the entire cinema froze. Finally, Philip stepped on the tightrope, the first tension, the later proficiency, the free release and performance, the goodwill play, the danger approaching and the perfect curtain call, the use of 3D visual effects is just right, I have I can't feel the presence of glasses, and even ignore everything around me.
Until Annie left, in Philip's narration, the WTO twins slowly disappeared, and I actually felt a trace of sadness.
After the show, we stood up from the middle of the last row, watching the subtitles scroll, I said leisurely, will there be Easter eggs? She said, did he fall? Then picked up that Old Navy paper bag and left.
I said, I felt a little sad after reading it, she asked why? I said because the World Trade Center was gone and she didn't seem to understand, and I added, I was talking about now, a place that was so beautiful because of this story, turned into a pile of rubble that I'll never see again Philip signed where he left off. She snorted, then fell silent.
I said again, I envy the 70s and 80s, those people were really creating legends, and now the visual spectacle we see is just a matter of how much money is spent. She oh, then silent.
We braved the cold wind to walk to the subway station, and chatted about trivial matters and arrangements for the New Year. Then she got out of the car.
I didn't get to give her her ultimate review of the movie: it's the best 3D movie I've seen since Avatar.
"Fortunately, I watched a good movie" This is the last goodbye tonight.

The Walk quotes

  • News Reporter: Why did you do this?

    Philippe Petit: There is no "why." Just because. When I see a beautiful place to put my wire, I cannot resist.

    News Reporter: [narrating] The story of my adventure was in the news all over the world. In France, when Papa Rudy heard of it, he was the happiest Papa Rudy in the world. And when Papa Rudy's angry, he's deadly angry. But when Papa Rudy's happy, his dogs get a double ration of food.

  • Jean-Pierre: You know Philippe, the Towers seem different. They're different now.

    Barry Greenhouse: That's right. They're different because you walked up there. Every New Yorker I talk to now says they love these towers.

    Annie: [looking up at the towers] Perhaps you brought them to life, Philippe - given them a soul.
