The "Maleficent 2" I watched this time was the second film in this series, and it was five years after the first film. 5 years is really too long to wait, so much that I have forgotten the content of Part 1. The main story is that the heroine Maleficent was once a pure fairy, but the kingdom was invaded by humans and encountered Ruthless betrayal, so she starts to be ruthless and casts a spell on Aurora, the princess of the human king. But what has not been forgotten is Angelina Jolie, her stunning makeup look: I saw that her cheekbones were very sharp with CG special effects, her eyes were also very sharp, and a pair of long horns pressed against her On his head, he was wearing a black robe that made people feel unremarkable!

The key is that in the first film in 2014, the special effects were shocking: when watching this authentic 3D film, the light was very bright, not only the colors were gorgeous, but the magic special effects were even more beautiful. So what are the highlights of this second film in 2019? Let me analyze one by one:

1. Special effects: Since there are many aerial shots in this film, the long shots from high to low appear shockingly from the beginning, which will make the audience feel like a bird with its big wings spread freely from the heights of the forest. Fly through the jungle to the calm lake. When gliding in the low sky, the stamens of the beautiful pink lotus can be clearly seen, and even the dragonfly on it has a cute human face. Yes, this is a live-action special effects movie, so full of imagination. Because of the realistic special effects, the later female advocates' flying shots with big wings, changing phoenix birds, and the final war action scenes are all lifelike and amazing.

2. Characters: The characters in this film have obviously changed a lot. Except for the heroine's figure and face, there are no major changes. The princess and prince have grown from boys and girls to adults. Even the actor who played the crow has some wrinkles on his face, and this is about two countries coming up with a marriage alliance, the prince and the princess are mainly married, so it is, when they grow up, they have to wait 5 I didn't make this film until a few years later. The Disney company really worked hard.

The shape of the elves in this film is also ingenious: in addition to the young and middle-aged flower fairies of different colors, there are also lovely dandelions, mushrooms, hedgehogs, giant frogs, giant tree elves, etc. which are eye-opening. What I didn't expect was that I saw another new ethnic group: the "Dark" ethnic group with big wings like the heroine, and there are whites, blacks and yellows in this ethnic group.

3. Realm: In the first part, the keyword "revenge" can be used to describe it, and in the second part, it can be described as "big love". The Sleeping Spell is just a mistake made by the heroine when she is angry. Although the godmother is like all mothers in the world when the princess grows up and is to be married, she can die for her and do anything for her. When the vicious queen attacked the princess, the heroine pushed the princess away without hesitation; when the queen saw that she was in danger, she pushed Princess Aurora from the castle, and the heroine leaned down and rushed to her death. save her. This is mother's love, although it is not biological, but this is great love, which can make people cry.

This time, I chose the LED REALD 3D hall, and I sat directly in the first row. Because the screen is relatively small, the intimate function that the first row can be watched while lying down is specially designed: push the button on the right side of the seat armrest to When you press the first button, there will be magical changes immediately. The back of the leather sofa will move down, the seat will be extended, and you will immediately feel like you are lying on the sofa at home watching a big-screen movie, so cool! I found that looking up like this, the visual impact is very strong, more realistic and more shocking, I really experienced an unforgettable fantasy visual journey, if there is a third part of "Maleficent", then don't make me wait too long Oh long!
