Ancient Rome 2012 ~ beautiful visual experience

In terms of the purpose of filming, film can be divided into two types, one is literary film and the other is entertainment film. The former focuses on telling stories, shaping characters, and expressing a certain idea; the latter focuses on attracting the box office, allowing the audience to obtain a stimulating experience and relax their mood through various audio-visual effects. Literary films can be regarded as an extension of literary works, which pay more attention to the artistic expression of the works and emphasize the author's original feelings; entertainment films can be regarded as a kind of different entertainment methods for urbanites, which pay more attention to the feelings of the audience and the economy of the film. Benefit.
It can be said that a movie can be said to be a successful movie as long as it has an extraordinary advantage in one of the dimensions. Of course, this distinction is not so absolute. If a film is excellent in both dimensions, it is a masterpiece. After all, the number is rare. As long as ordinary films can succeed in one dimension, it is not easy. However, critics are often confused. To evaluate a general film with two requirements, they will criticize the author, entertainment films will lack the artistry of the story, and literary films will lack the appreciation and no one can understand them. This is too demanding.
"The Last Day of Pompeii" (3D) is undoubtedly an entertainment commercial film. Although the storyline is simple and old-fashioned, the love story of an unreasonable slave and a mistress is told in the grand history, full of personal heroism, and the portrayal of the characters is very good... However, the film still makes people in just 100 minutes. The natural disaster of Pompeii in the ancient Roman era produced by high-tech special effects, the effect is realistic and the scene is shocking, just like the perfect combination of gladiator and 2012. So, the entertainment of the film is enough. "The Last Day of Pompeii" allows the audience to get a good audio-visual feast, and also to relax physically and mentally. Why is it not a good film?
ps: The British and Americans are estimated to have hatred for the Romans. The film portrays the Romans as big villains, and has always been the Black Roman Empire. Who is it that Rome invaded and abused the British island for more than 400 years? .
