Before the release of Wasteland, some Western film critics questioned that in a market where the apocalyptic theme is so popular, it is difficult for Wasteland to innovate and blaze a trail. After watching the first episode, the idea is that “Eastern Style” may be the original creative point of the producer’s design for the film. However, whether it is character image, artistic makeup, martial arts design, they all exaggerate the texture similar to juvenile comics. It is hard to imagine that the audience will be similar to "The Walking Dead", with a majority of young male audiences (20-35).
From the unscientific fighting power of one enemy to ten, to the supporting role of character identity, to the exaggerated costume and makeup that reminds you of Capital in "The Hunger Games", plus the overhead setting of the seven lords, it is simple and yet Even if the exaggerated finished product is added with vigorous Chinese condiments, it is still immature and lacks depth. The ending song of the first episode sounded. Looking at Yanzu's full chest muscles, what I worry most is that "The Wasteland" will go to the end of the "Divergent" or "Hunger Games" TV series version. Or maybe, this film is an effort of AMC to conquer the younger audiences? But it seems that teenagers don’t often sit on the sofa at home obediently, and go to the cinema with their little boyfriends and little girlfriends to eat popcorn and touch their thighs, isn’t it more attractive?
As a fan of my ancestors who thinks that the pectoral muscles are still a little rippling, I still have to say something auspicious. The series of martial arts scenes are indeed meticulously crafted, and we can all see the fanatical tribute to "The Great Master" in the interim rain in the first episode. In addition, the traces of "Kung Fu" are faintly hidden in the shops and lights. Suddenly, we can even see the shadow of "Hero" in the last slow motion of somersaults in the rain and knife marks through the air...By the way, the setting of the kid going crazy when he bleeds even made me think I was watching International version of "Tai Chi".
Finally, if you accidentally read this article by Daniel Wu, please remember that I still love you, and I am willing to give you a monkey.
