Mel Gibson directed three movies, "Brave Heart", "The Crucifixion", and "Apocalypse", all of which are extremely bloody. "The term was explained profoundly on the screen. For the third time, he simply let a black panther live and tear the face of an indigenous hunter...His films often use the brutal side of the civilization development process as the huge background of the story. His stories are all popular dramas.
"Apocalypse" did not take for granted the abuse of computer special effects (in this regard, he has always been quite restrained), and adopted a more realistic style as a whole-I thought it would be a curious movie like "The Mummy" at first, but it turned out not at all. This overly realistic image style will definitely disappoint some viewers who are looking forward to the use of computer special effects to reproduce the ancient Mayan civilization. I think it’s okay. Mel Gibson made up for it with a thrilling jungle story. This disappointment. Watching this movie is like completing a magical expedition in the hinterland of a tropical rainforest. Most of the time, you can hardly predict the direction of the story-you don't know what will happen next. Watching this kind of movie is always the most enjoyable. I will briefly sort out the general context of the whole movie myself: The
first scene uses hunting and dividing pork to explain the relationship between the characters and the character characteristics, which is very strange; the
second scene is a sex joke in the jungle tribe, and the relationship between the characters has also grown since childhood. hunter summarized expanded to the whole tribe, the atmosphere is very lively;
the third scene leads to tribal killings this sudden crisis, disrupted the internal tribal relatively simple relationship between the characters, establish a new, hostile contradictory relationship, enriching the dramatic;
section In the four scenes, the captives are escorted to the city, the vision is opened again, the story pattern becomes larger, and the plot is full of more possibilities and unknown factors; the
fifth scene is a murder game in the arena, the narrative is Here abandon the grand story structure, and bring the contradiction back to the hostility between the captives and the hunters explained in the third scene;
In the sixth scene, the entire story structure has shrunk again, turning into a thrilling hunting game with a limited number of participants, a hunting story of life and death, which is probably the most exciting and most watchable one in the main movie. In the part, the parallel montage continues to switch between two important crisis scenarios: the hunting story and the survival story from the cave, until the two clues merge.
The last part of the climax just right leads to another important landscape: the sudden appearance of Spanish warships on the coast means that extraterritorial civilization has reached the South American continent. A deeper crisis and a more ambitious theme reveal the tip of the iceberg...
Mel Gibson He is one of the screenwriters of this film, and it is really admirable to be able to manage the structured story so freely.
