Next, I will come to August 18 to the end. The film borrows those classic elements
. First of all, the viral infection plot of the title is obviously borrowed from "28 Days of Shock". The director wants to create a doomsday atmosphere to echo the theme, and it can be handled here. Not bad.
Then the next wall plot is directly borrowed from "Resident Evil". Here, the plot development of the film is still a process.
Then there is the heroine who was picked up to escape by helicopter when she was a child. It should be borrowed from the plot of "I Am Legend", ok, the combination of several doomsday movies is not bad.
Then the heroine grew up and became a major, and then the eyes that were blinded by stray bullets were transplanted with electronic prosthetic eyes, so high-tech and cool, isn't this "Ghost in the Shell"? Yes, you read that right, here is a "salutation" to it.
Well, we continue to push the main storyline. Thirty years later, the virus broke out again. It was in London. In order to protect themselves, senior officials had to send people to the quarantine area to seek vaccines. Our heroine was honorably selected. , I will not complain here that Mao's 30 years have passed, and our heroine who was about ten years old can still be born in her twenties. The punk party obviously has the shadow of "Beidou Shenquan" and "Cannibal". It is still coherent here, but it is also abrupt. The scene of picking up the train is used in too many videos, so I won't list them one by one.
After escaping from the punk station, the biggest fault in the film appeared. I wonder if the director likes "Return to the Middle Ages" so much that he must "pay tribute" to it. In short, I am very disgusted with such a nonsensical style of painting. , and the logic is really unconvincing, not to mention whether the old man king survived with his companions 30 years ago (from so many people in the kingdom, it can be speculated that there must have been), if there are companions, obviously Occupy the materials in an air-raid shelter, but don't use them, but go back to the medieval way of life. I think it is an individual who chooses a way of life that goes backwards in civilization when he knows that there are materials.
The heroine and her party were imprisoned, and then the old king made an inexplicable choice to let the heroine be executed by gladiatorial fighting. I think this is really enough to support the plot, purely to introduce the plot of "Gladiator", these few plots It's too hard to deal with.
Next, the heroine and her party escaped from the Middle Ages through the materials in the air-raid shelter. Here I am really unable to complain why these materials are still the same as brand new after 30 years, especially how to survive oxidation without vacuum isolation. The director here has already eaten the logic. The most obvious one is that the younger sister of the punk leader clearly has a brother who can use electrical appliances and drive a car, and the place where he was detained before is full of cars and car wrecks, and then he used the train to escape. I hunted down, but when I saw Bentley, I asked very innocently and naively: "What is this?" What is even more speechless is how the punk party happened to be so lucky, knowing that the heroine and her party would escape the medieval kingdom at this time, and then They also know which way they will go. Don't argue with me. They know that the heroine will go back to the separation wall, so they will block the road ahead of time. People who live in the city believe that there will be at least two roads from A to B. , even on a highway, there is more than one way to go. In this case, how can you predict the road blockage? What's more, they don't know when the heroine will get out of trouble and whether she can get out of trouble. Are a bunch of people so stupid? Stay stuck in a road all the time?
Here, the director is obviously making the plot for the plot's sake, and the plot for the plot's sake. There were comments before that this road chase was an imitation of "The Big Dipper" or "Cadillac and Dinosaurs", but I actually think it's more like an imitation of "Crazy" Max".
As for the ending, I don't want to complain, and I don't want to complain why it's just a deadly virus, and there is no zombie outbreak, how can the city be destroyed in ruins, not to mention that there must be elite experts from all walks of life among the survivors Why can't To rebuild civilization, this kind of logic has been eaten by the director and screenwriter.
In short, this drama feels to me like the director imitating a series of classic films, but because of the lack of control skills, it started to get out of control after the filming, and in the end all the logic and integrity were lost, so only I can't give more than two stars, one star is for the heroine, and one star is for the director to let everyone play "Find the Difference".
That's all, above.
