As the old saying goes, pretending is a craft, and how to pretend is a problem.
Many brainless action movies are pretending to be in different forms, but basically they have not succeeded. Michael Bay madly added political metaphors and classical heroism in the last three parts of "Transformers", but they were all together, and the explosion effect came out and nothing was lost; Alfonso Cuaron used photography and sound and light in "Rome" The audience was fascinated, and then told a Hollywood-style family story; even Guo Shi added so many rich and appropriate elements into the masterpiece like "Shadow" (Of course, Guo Shi is definitely not pretending, but he Just bring that pressure) to pretend to be a force, but accidentally chose a bad dream team combination of Wu Lei + Hu Jun.
And John Wick told us that sometimes, you do subtractive design.
Want to make the character look compelling? Just let him block and kill the gods like Long Aotian, and the Buddha block and kill the Buddha. Sounds cliché, right? But this Long Aotian is a professional who uses cqc to fight hand-to-hand, uses Mozambique shooting skills to pistol, and uses the central axis to lock the gun.
Make the world look compelling? Just divide the gangs into several types. Isn't it a feeling left after playing "Saints Row"? However, they abide by the rules and are clean and tidy, remember to make up their guns when killing people, and they will not panic when they die.
Make Shuangpian look compelling? This is the question of the level of motor coaching, which means it is not a problem.
Pretending to be forced is not the same as putting "depth" in a movie. Sometimes a few simple vulgar stalks and well-designed details and settings can be said to be unstoppable.
The first reason is to be tall and not arrogant.

In the past two years, it is not a problem to make action movies like cartoons.
The question is, after being made into a cartoon, can the film maintain that impact? Is it possible to insert several convincing and exaggerated action scenes into a bunch of bullshit plots?
Some people wanted to do it but failed, and the filming was nondescript, such as "22 Miles"; some people simply gave up, how naive they came, how bad they were, such as "Avengers 4". Obviously, this road is not easy.
Facts have proved that if you want action movies to be like cartoons and movies, this matter is still a matter of talent.
Chadstakhsky is a first-class genius in fighting this matter. Whether the protagonist is holding a gun, a knife or a steering wheel, he will make the protagonist and any tools around him a part of the fight. In Chad's dictionary Here, there is no word "useless"; David Reich is a gun expert. He knows how to shoot cool, what kind of gun to use, and how to use a gun to kill people. He all knows and knows how to shoot.
So we got this: a hugely exaggerated but very real motorcycle battle, awesome action scenes with people and tactical dogs, and a hundred fancy ways to use guns, and a throwing axe headshot is included with the film. Instruction manual.
The play is beautiful and clever, the second reason.

Blast this building, then bomb that building, bomb another building.
This is a modern action movie.
Anyway, the audience likes watching destruction, they like excitement.
They don't know what gun-fu is, nor do they know what is simply and neat, let alone what is violent aesthetics, even though they say these words every day.
Some people also emphasize the so-called "story" and feel that movies without a dramatic twist are boring movies, and scripts with no metaphors are rubbish scripts. The bigger the popcorn, the better, and the more powerful it is, the more profound the better.
They also don't know that this is not called "good plot", it is called "nipple music".
These nipple fans are coming to spray me, but who cares.
No nipple pleasure, the third reason (how is it a bit heavy with the second)

The average man, after his wife dies, is sad, then crazy, and then died.
(Well, Inception is not.)
Why must a man die, why must he go to hell or go to heaven to accompany his wife?
I understand, the love is deep, and I will love it when I die.
But here comes the question: Do you live a good life and make prayers before meals every day. Tell your wife about your recent life when you sweep the grave. Will she not be happier?
Are you sure she doesn't want you to live well? ?
A person who loves you will definitely not want to see you living in sorrow and pain, then commit suicide, and then no more.
When a man makes a mistake and bears a sin, it does not mean he must die. He can atone for the rest of his life, and he can also care about food and vegetables.
I beg the crappy Hollywood screenwriters, don't let men get rid of them as soon as they are in grief and pain, it is really not easy for men.
No strange man, the fourth reason.
