"Global Storm"-This is not a disaster film at all

Although the film was popular in North America and at the box office, it could not match the publicity of the disaster film. The box office of the film was a small hit in my country. "It can be said that the results are very eye-catching, and it is hoped that the total box office will double the North American hometown. However, due to the low box office share in the mainland, the film still cannot recover the huge cost of 120 million US dollars.
Disaster films have always had a popular tradition in China. "The Day After Acquired", "2012" and "Doomsday Collapse" have all created good box office results, especially "2012", which broke the box office record of mainland film history when it was released that year. The Chinese like to lively, as long as the story is still in the past, with Hollywood's overwhelming special effects scenes, word-of-mouth will not be bad. Plot bug? Old story? No artistic pursuit? The people who eat melon don't care about this.
However, as a disaster film, the film is also unqualified. Not only the scenes are particularly small, but they are all concentrated in the trailer. There is no sense of surprise. More importantly, in order to cover up the roughness of the special effects, the big scenes of the film must be Otherwise, it happened at night (such as the Hong Kong section), or it was pitiful with little time (such as flooding Dubai), and under such a hard cover, people could still see the poor modeling (the Hong Kong building was dropped) Duan is like building blocks), I really don’t know where Warner’s 120 million has been spent.
In terms of plot, the film is more like a political thriller. However, the story is too old-fashioned. Even with the weather control gimmick, it still cannot conceal the screenwriter’s perfunctory and set plagiarism. In this film, You can see the common criminal motives and criminal processes in Hollywood. In short, the audience has guessed the ins and outs of the story. The protagonists are still being played around there. In the end, the villains are exposed not because the protagonist is too smart, but because The villain killed himself, jumping out for fear that others would not know that he was a badass. At the end, he returned to the family and wanted to be a little sensational, but he did not control the rhythm. The audience knew in advance what they were selling. Anyway, after watching, I was as clean as water. , The movie neither attracted me nor shocked me, let alone moved me, mediocre, too mediocre!
Wu Yanzu has no sense of existence in this movie. A soy sauce character is not as many scenes as in the trailer. There is nothing to say about other characters. Facialization is particularly serious. You can find similarities in any Hollywood commercial movie. For me personally, the viewing process of the film is very boring, even the popcorn movie is not even boring.
