Although the plot is old-fashioned, it's not as bad as you said

Priest seems to be based on comics, which gives me the feeling of a B-grade movie. After all, flesh and blood, most audiences can't accept it, and the background is set to be an earth that will be destroyed by vampires. Priest is here to save The earth, coupled with the scene of barren vegetation, the dark city that is a bit unacceptable is actually the last refuge of human beings, so it seems a little unlikely that most audiences will like it. I also agree with this point. After all, in commercial films, the audience wants to watch a slightly more turbulent plot, watch more fights, not too flesh-and-blood scenes, and watch them comfortably, otherwise the money in their hands will be wasted.

In fact, everyone who complains about the poor plot, pay attention to what you say, what about the Avatar plot, the old-fashioned death, not the same as the global box office champion, everyone said yes, okay? Not really, it just looks cool. And the director of the saint just doesn’t understand a truth. Commercial films are for the public to watch, so they have to be cool and comfortable to watch. However, from the point of view of ordinary people, this film is uncomfortable and unpleasant, so the box office is not good. how's it going.

In fact, I personally think that although this film is not very exciting, it is not as bad as you said. I feel that the background setting of the comic is still good, the war between humans and vampires. Speaking of which, some people disagree. Why are vampires so strange? Well, let’s put it this way, you may have read too much Twilight, or the Vampire Diaries. Indeed, I also like good vampires, but so do evil vampires You can see, besides, vampires in Western religions are inherently evil. Humans almost destroy the earth in order to defeat vampires. Anyway, I think the background of this comic is good, and the dark style is not common. I think it is okay to look at it occasionally.

Now I'm going to really talk about the shortcomings of this film. First, the editing ability of the director of this film is not good. I feel that many shots are not coherent enough. I guess the 3D effect is not good enough. Otherwise, why do people complain so much?
Second, there is absolutely no need for the second male protagonist to appear. Even if it is adapted from the comics, it is not necessary. It is all based on the comics. The second male protagonist should be completely cut out.
Third, since the comics are adapted, why not simply simplify the plot, and directly come to a scene of a human vampire war, everyone will be happy to see it.
Fourth, the appearance of a vampire is too simple. I can say that I have seen this kind of opposite sex in many movies, and the shock is not strong enough.

The joining of maggie Q is the reason for me to watch this film, but there are not many places for Sister Q to shine, but I am satisfied when I see Sister Q, she is so handsome.

Although this movie is not that exciting, but I think it's okay, a movie with 75 points out of 100, comic-style commercial films are still a lot to watch. Quite mysterious. Some people say that it is not worth going to the cinema, saying that I even went to the cinema to watch the Battle of Los Angeles back then, but it was actually not that good. The cinema was just for the effect.

The above is my personal opinion.
Again, if you think it's useless, even if it's useless. I think what I'm saying makes sense.

Priest quotes

  • Hicks: [Priest is carving crosses into bullets] What's with all the bullets? I thought priests didn't use firearms.

    Priest: We don't. They're for you.

  • Black Hat: The church teaches us that the eyes are the windows to the soul. And that since vampire evolved without eyes, it is a soulless creature, to be eradicated. And I have seen the soul of the vampire, and let me tell you that it is far more pure than that of any man. Now you ask me what I am. I am the bringer of the tide. I am the wave that will wash clean this unclean world. And you, and your Priest, will help me do it.
