First, the story revolves around finding a child. From bumping into walls everywhere to helping the nobles. The script is fairly smooth and there is no criticism.
Secondly, the director's scheduling in some large scenes and shooting of natural scenery, especially the scenes and natural scenery with Turkish characteristics, have bright colors. Pleasing to the eye. In addition, the local soundtrack also shows the director's ingenuity.
Of course, as Russell's first test of the water, after talking about the advantages, the disadvantages are also obvious. The first thing to bear the brunt is the shooting of the war scenes. It can be judged as unqualified. The first few flashbacks made me feel very uncomfortable. That is, there is no sense of substitution, and the picture is not refined. The complete war scene behind made me think that I was watching a domestically produced anti-Japanese ghost movie. Also drunk
.
In addition, I don’t understand that the director’s composition is a bit strange in the front and back of the dialogue. Turks wear a little felt hat, so the dialogue camera always shows half of the other actor’s hat or horns next to the director’s face. This makes the composition of the whole picture a bit strange. Why not just let the other party's entire head into the mirror and use another angle to let both parties into the mirror. This is the part where the director's skills are not refined enough.
Putting aside these advantages and disadvantages, overall as a debut, he can still score 70 points. Can look forward to the next director's work.
