This article was first published on the movie public account "Yunhe Movie", there are some spoilers, it does not affect the viewing of the movie, and the overall score is 5 points.
As soon as the cast of "Train to Busan 2" was confirmed, doubts about the bad movie came one after another, because the original cast was completely replaced, and the story was almost re-told, which had nothing to do with the original version. When Yuncheng was watching the movie , I have lowered my expectations, but I still didn't expect it to be so thoroughly rotten.
Compared with the first film, the only connection between this film is that it borrows the background of the first film. The zombie tide broke out in South Korea, and the country no longer exists. Finally, the refugees who fled to Busan boarded the last refugee boat and drove away. Going to Hong Kong, and our protagonist Zhengxi is a soldier who fled to Hong Kong with this ship. In order to make a lot of money, the protagonist formed a team to return to South Korea, and found that there were still a group of people who were not infected with corpse poison. Struggling to survive, Zhengxi decided to take the group of survivors to escape.
It can be said that compared with the analysis and display of human nature in the first film, this film has completely taken the road of a commercial cool film. The scene is more grand, the battle is more intense, and the car chase scene is more thrilling, but the core is empty. It has become a B-level cool film. Without changing the director, the 180-degree turn in this style is really unexpected for Yuncheng, which also makes this film destined to be unable to compare with the first one, or the director has never In the beginning, the idea of going beyond the first one was given up.
Under the premise of short creative thinking, it is not surprising that there are various narrative bugs in this film. First of all, there is nothing new in the plot. It is basically the most traditional drama of the American TV series "The Walking Dead" - violent and perverse in the doomsday environment. A group of survivors and a tyrannical centralized organization, and this scale is not comparable to that of Negan, and can only be regarded as the level of a warden. The portrayal of the protagonist of this film is also quite mediocre. The male and female protagonists have almost no character arcs, and they are not even as lovable as the two supporting characters. Yuncheng is relatively impressed by "brother-in-law" and "eldest daughter", and "brother-in-law" is Zhengxi's dead sister. Her husband, a member of the South Korean action team, the "eldest daughter" is the eldest daughter of the survivor heroine. The brother-in-law played an image of a petty citizen who lost a loved one in despair and pessimism and had a strong will to survive. Instead, it was very vivid, and the eldest daughter played the role. A young adult who was forced to mature prematurely in a doomsday environment and had to master various survivability in order to survive as a family. At the same time, he was also very sassy, and it was estimated that many people would not recognize it. The eldest daughter played Li Lai in "Su Yuan" The cute little girl Suyuan in the middle, time flies too fast.
The heroine Min Jing has always looked a little familiar. When I checked the cast list, I found out that it was actually Li Zhenxian, the queen of the Korean Wave. I heard before that she had transformed into an actor and won some awards. Now it seems that the youth when she was a singer has faded. The vigor and vigor of Li Zhenxian is now a more temperamental and more mature and restrained female character. Unfortunately, the forced sensationalism at the end was too bad, so Li Zhenxian's performance did not have much memory.
Obviously it is a genuine sequel, this film is just too hot to shoot, and it also makes Yuncheng quite puzzled, at least the whole small foreshadowing, or a tribute to the first part, cue, it will not make this film like this Go on, in this era of capital, all IP sequels can't wait to lick the last drop of IP, which is a waste, and it's not an art film, it's just pure popcorn, this operation is quite confusing I don't understand, I don't understand.
