Disaster VS Love VS Freedom VS Revenge VS Friendship

If it's 4 stars, 2 stars for the magnificent special effects, 1 star for the bloody fight, and 1 star for the 6.4 points that in any case surpasses the 6.4 points of a bad movie like "Where Are We Going, Dad".
Thinking about it, it seems that "Pompeii" will have a Titanic shadow. The title explains the tragic life experience and extraordinary skills of the male protagonist, which seems to pave the way for the encounter with the female protagonist because of saving a horse. So far, the audience will think that the theme of the film is love. But then the fighting on the arena suddenly reminded people of the "Freedom" shouted by China Lace in "Braveheart", so the audience suddenly understood again that the theme of the film seems to be the tenacity of people who are slaves to the reality of injustice Stubborn resistance, it turns out that love is just to set off the greatness of the free soul. But just as the audience shouted "Get up, people who don't want to be slaves" along with the male protagonist, the volcano erupted, and the eye-catching special effects suddenly pulled the audience back to the fact that "this is a disaster movie" . We are in awe of the power of nature, watching the familiar disaster stories through the near-perfect computer production to present the scenes that have been imagined countless times in our minds. But "Freedom" and "Love" appeared again. For the sake of freedom and love, the protagonists did not hesitate to ignore the landslides that burned everything, and staged a noble duel in the ashes of the apocalypse. So the audience suddenly understood again that the original Pompeii background was just to set off the unruly mind.
The director wants to express too much, or it may be that he thinks that people's ultimate wish in the face of disasters is to protect their loved ones, avenge their families, and fight for their own slaves. Every scene becomes a climax, which makes the film no climax. Jack in Titanic is also noble and stubborn, but the details are not a fight with the male second, Rose is also free and uninhibited, but it is manifested in the constant entanglement and struggle in his heart, rather than seeing a second side with a man The person who is riding a horse is ready to run towards a happy two-person life. I can only watch the scene, I can't recall the details. After watching it, I pretended that I was watching a disaster movie.
But in any case, the visual effects are worth recommending. After all, if compared with the estrus orangutans who fight for the vixen indiscriminately in "Havoc in Heaven", the characterization is much fuller.
