This is the first full 3D movie in Thailand, using the Red One 3D camera. This machine was once used by Peter Jackson. His "King Kong" and "The Lord of the Rings" were all shot with this machine. This time, the filmmakers are determined to bring the audience a visual feast with Tony Jia's kung fu and big production scenes plus full 3D shooting. It is a pity that this film has not been introduced for public release in China. We can only see the 2D version on the Internet. Maybe many wonderful links cannot be expressed in 2D, but we can only comment on the look and feel of 2D.
From the story, it is a very simple line. In order to protect his beloved elephant, Tonija wants to use his elephant to achieve terrorist attacks. He is in all kinds of troubles to save the elephant. From the theme, it has a bit of animal protectionism, but it is unclear, because after all, this elephant is his pet since he was a child, and only this one, if this is an elephant he does not know, or put this danger Rise to the entire species of elephants, then the significance of this theme will be very grand.
From the perspective of the scene, the scene with hundreds of motorcycles is more creative. First, it reflects the local style of Thailand, which is the world of small-displacement motorcycles. Second, it does have a very oppressive temperament, which makes the protagonist breathless. The martial arts design on the roof of the attic is also very innovative, making great use of the motorcycle, and there is a long shot of Tonyja jumping around the room, which is really impressive.
Because the martial arts scene in this film is relatively long, there are too many repetitions in the moves. It can be seen that the moves and routines in each scene are carefully designed and created by everyone. In order to pursue different martial arts effects, great The use of fists and props is used, but there is a serious problem that most of these actions are out of the relationship with the camera, so the impact is not so strong when viewed on the camera. If it can be like the fight scene in the warehouse in the ship It's not bad, that scene fully took care of the camera, many action designs are based on the camera, the priorities are very layered, and the audience can see clearly, in fact, the audience likes to watch this kind of action movie, not like wrestling The same way of play, that way of play is thankless, and I'm half dead and can't produce any results.
In addition, Tony Jia's fight did not make people feel that there was much change from the beginning to the end. This change is actually a problem of the script. The design of the characters does not have a level of progression in the degree of fighting. If it is divided into two or three times, there are An escalation of contradictions, each escalation of contradictions will not only affect the emotional changes of the protagonist, but also lead to a qualitative change in the fight. If there is such a change, it will look much more interesting. Now it looks like a raw film without a plot. Just do it when you come up, change your posture and continue to do it. Although you have come up with many novel ways to do it, it is still boring in the end, which is simply because the story is not exciting.
In addition, there are not enough descriptions of Tonyja's relationship with the elephant, so that the audience does not have the concept of how important this elephant is to him. It is difficult to rely on Tonyja's performance alone, so at the last critical moment, everyone did not There is a strong sense of crisis, which is caused by insufficient emotional foreshadowing. There are also two black characters who are a bit repetitive. They look similar, and they both fight. At the end of the gang fight, I can't tell who is who. In short, the screenwriter of this film does have a big problem. If it is similar to the first one It’s a bit worse than the story, but the action design is better than the first one, and it can’t be surpassed if compared with the first one of “Quan Ba”.
