Work Type: Fantasy
Main actor: David Stakston
Story Summary: The Ecological Crisis of Norse Mythology
Release time: Released in Denmark on January 31, 2020, 6 episodes, finished
What do you say about Nordic themed works? The plot is quite boring. In contrast, the setting of the story (Nordic mythology) and the theme (environmental protection topic) are more eye-catching, and it is a new work with distinct advantages and disadvantages.
Each of the six episodes of the show is different in content, and there are only two key points. 1. Magne’s magical physique (Thor?); 2. Dialectical topic of environmental protection and pollution (environmental movement of glacier melting)
The six episodes are listed below in the form of pictures, the first few episodes are ignored, and the last episode is the title ---Love the Motherland. From this title, I can directly understand the intention of the creative team of this play- calling for environmental protection. What is the purpose of environmental protection? ->Protect humanity->Virtuous circle .
Enter the drama review, let's talk about the plot first, and you can understand the full text by looking at a few plots.
1. Magne appears ("Thor" appears?)
2. The death of Isolde (uncovering the "secret")
3. The emergence of the "giants" family (hidden life reveals the tip of the iceberg)
4,2500 barrels of waste were discovered (the behavior of the "giant" was revealed)
5. Thor vs. Giant (The sequel is scheduled...)
Look at the main theme of this play again, one sentence "protect the environment for the future of mankind".
After reading the plot and theme, I will talk about the "pros and cons". By comparison, it's clear at a glance.
Let's talk about "advantages" first.
1. The story introduces Nordic mythology. This gimmick is more worth seeing. Although it turns out that everything is just a flash in the pan, it at least has a somewhat eye-catching purpose.
2. The theme of environmental protection, this is combined with the picture of this work to appreciate, there is a special atmosphere.
3. The supporting role is eye-catching. This is a typical "disturbance" (comprehensive understanding). The key is that the male protagonist's appearance is too passerby.
Focus on failure.
1. The layout of the story is too cumbersome. In fact, it is an "environmental-themed stage play", but it is out of date and incorporates "Nordic mythology" (Thunder, giants, chaotic beasts). Although the content looks "fancy" a lot, but think about it carefully, what is it? Spoof? !
2. Borrowing the title of the top hero "Thor" under Marvel, the selling point is well selected, but the selection of the actors seems to be a little shabby.
3. A story that can be told in one hour, just shoot six episodes, "procrastination" is not advocated.
The final review.
Screenwriter ★☆☆☆☆ (Environmental protection story only)
Director ★★★☆☆ (There is a problem with the fusion of the story. How far can I get started by buying a gimmick?)
Actor ★★★★☆ (supporting role in the show, the protagonist is aggrieved)
Plot ★☆☆☆☆ (Expectation is a bit high, the story is a lot worse)
Visual effects★★★★★ (clean)
Sound ★★★★☆ (Nordic heavy metal, powerful momentum)
Recommendation ★★★☆☆ (Just take a look, don’t have extravagant expectations)
