Today we will talk about the French/American/German movie "Gunpowder Milkshake".
The title of the film is Gunpowder Milkshake / Bloody Milkshake (2021), alias Bloody Guest Alliance (Taiwan).
According to the film's setting, there is an organization called "The Firm" in this world. This organization is responsible for recruiting killers and conducting various assassination activities. The female killer Scarlet (Scarlet) is a killer of the company.
One time Scarlett committed a crime and needed to run away, leaving his young daughter Sam (Sam) behind.
After Sam was forced to separate from his mother since childhood, he was raised by the company and became a senior killer.
Similarly, Sam killed the son of another big brother in an assassination operation, and at the same time she moved compassion in another assassination mission, which caused double trouble to herself.
These troubles quickly turned into a steady stream of hunts, and both the bosses and the company sent the remaining killers to pursue them endlessly.
Sam needs to solve these troubles, and the only way is to fight to the end.
The connection between the mother and daughter is like the "milkshake" written in the title.
Before Scarlett left her daughter, there was very little time to accompany her to take care of her. The occasional contact was that the two sat face to face and drank a glass of milkshakes.
The film starts with a milkshake, fights bloody all the way, until a way out.
The heroine Sam is played by "Nebula" Karen Gillan, and his mother, Scarlett, is played by "The Queen" Lena Headey.
Linna Headey is only 14 years older than Karen Gillan, and has now started acting as a mother. The 14-year-old age difference is not too big, and it is set in the same way in the film. Scarlett is a female killer. She gave birth to a daughter when she was very young, which is in line with the real-life age difference between the two actors.
In addition, the three librarians who played important supporting roles in many action scenes were Carla Gugino, Michelle Yeoh and Angela Bassett. Each of them has a solo scene of their own.
It can be clearly seen that this is an action movie with women taking the lead.
Female action movies are very popular these days, as if you only need to set up a female to be the protagonist, and then find a group of sparring partners to play lively.
The advantages of "Gunpowder Milkshake" are very obvious, and the disadvantages are also visible to the naked eye.
Let me talk about the advantages first.
1. The film is composed of the heroine and the all-female justice camp, which is very eye-catching in terms of appearance.
Karen Gillan, with red hair and a height of 1.8 meters, is the most dazzling boy in any scene. Even the actor who played against her is not so easy to find, and it is not so easy to find someone who overwhelms Karen Gillan in terms of height and momentum.
Several other actresses are also not letting go, all with exquisite makeup, fists and fists, fighting for beauty.
2. The film has a very, very interesting action arrangement, which largely offsets the shortcomings of non-professional action actors.
All kinds of fantastic combat scenes make people laugh. When the female killers are at a disadvantage, they give full play to their ingenuity and organically integrate comedy and action. People can't help but sigh: You can still play like this.
The disadvantages are equally obvious.
1. The plot of the story is sloppy, very sloppy.
The film wants to learn the "Quick Hunting" series but only learns the skin, ignoring the most basic storytelling.
The most basic thing about a movie is to tell a good story. If the story is not tenable, no matter how interesting it is, it can only be superficial.
The biggest shortcoming of the film is the blunt plot setting, and the audience will feel embarrassed to be so embarrassed.
2. Deliberately created gender opposition.
Although the film is very clever and does not explicitly say anything about gender, it is fully revealed in the role setting.
Men are all stupid and bad images, and women are all heroic.
Female images cover all skin tones and various sexual orientations, and they are absolutely politically correct.
3. The movements are soft and without strength at all.
Except for Michelle Yeoh, the film is all non-professional action actors, so martial arts movements are done through interspersed editing, which looks fake. If it were not for the fun of the action scenes, the viewing effect of the entire movie would be greatly reduced.
The heroines teamed up to finish the job,
It's worth looking at.
