The Failed Sequel to Circle (Chinese) Qian

It is a pity that the director of the spinning top gave up the mecha-fighting monster universe he created and ran to make an Oscar literary film (for this, I will also give a bad review to The Shape of Water), and the result is doomed to the failure of the film.
1. The plot. When I evaluated the first movie, my point of view was very clear. You don't have to be too critical of the plot for a movie that fights monsters, but it can't be as stupid as this movie to be completely unbelievable. The promotion of the whole plot is full of bugs, and China's overwhelmed Elements will not be easy to accept because of the increase in Jing Tian's role. Zhang Jin's marshal and Jing Tian's technology company founder characters are all made to play.
2. Mechas and monsters. If the plot is bad, I have already made a psychological presupposition before watching it. What I didn't expect is that the mecha and monsters, which are the core values ​​of the film, are also rotten into slag. In terms of mecha, except for the vengeful wanderer (the first upgrade of the dangerous wanderer, but where is the upgrade, not at all! I know! Dao!), the other few don't even remember their names, they just join the group to fight monsters The punches, the separate weapons and abilities had little different effects, and the pilots didn't impress me at all. Recalling the first Russian duo's big chimney head heavy-duty mecha, the red typhoon driven by the Chinese triplets, and the first 5th-generation mecha with a heavy role in the Australian Raider, although it is a supporting role, it is all fascinating. Impressive. The mecha monsters are even worse. The three monsters drilled out of the trench have no sense of existence. Although it is said that they are two generations of four and one of five generations, they look the same, their abilities seem to be similar, and their bodies seem to be the same. There is no such thing as going through a Godzilla movie! I dare to guarantee that these monsters must not be designed and finalized by the big spinning top!
3. BGM. The first BGM is super-burning, and the Theme and the cool shape and action of the mecha can literally blast people into the sky! The BGM in this one is completely indifferent. The first classic theme was used when several mechs were equipped with rocket boosters. The picture and music were completely disconnected, WTF! !
...At the end, as a super boss with three-headed monsters, can it be done with a suicide shock from a wanderer? ! ? ! are you playing with me? Do you still want to do a third episode? WTF!
For the first time, as soon as the ending song sounded, I quickly exited without hesitation. The greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment. I'm sorry I don't admit this sequel.
