For me, whether a movie has a story or not directly affects my appetite for watching movies. Because I didn’t expect "The Expendables" to outline a soft and delicate meticulous painting with skinny, hard and thick lines, in the later aftertaste, I can lead a hero to save the United States and break out of the battlefield of fighting and killing. There are clear traces of the story, and if you count this account, you can make a profit after watching the movie!
Don't say that this idea is too much for children. We know which fans and fans this dish is for. It's best to have your eyes full of swords and swords, and let the bullets fly, crackling in your ears, just fight, less nonsense, don't give people the effort to breathe, and the battle will reach the end. However, another novelty is set here, because its weight is neither heavy nor light, so it adds a bit of eye-catching lace to pure violence.
Power contests behind the scenes, fighting in the nest, killing the donkey, cruising against terrorist warlords in the name of justice, etc. Which school is in charge? Can the flag held up fly? This is all a guise, the truth is, for the big brother's twilight love, the brothers go through water and fire, and they will not hesitate. As for Li Shizhu who worked for the US knife for his family and talked about money everywhere, we will not discuss this. It is not easy to understand that it is not easy to be alive. Of course, it is purely an "accident" and uncertain.
What I want to be sure of is the content of the story, whether it is novel or creative on the surface, or the lining is malnourished. In the process of playing violence in this film, I didn’t faint my head, and I supported it on the back. That’s good. And the No. 1 supporting actress, Mexican beauty Giselell, is also very rushing, with a kind of amazing that a small flower emerges from the cracks in the stone. In the play, not only the husband sings the women's essays, but also echoes the revolutionary martyr spirit of "I won't tell you to kill me" with Shi Lao Qian, which fully demonstrates the significance of her existence. What is rare is that her accelerator for accelerating fighting passion is not a decoration, but also a vase of kung fu, which affects the fighting pace of the heroes and reverses the actual meaning of the battle. In the men’s territory, she made frequent appearances, how do you say that? Anyway, the man has conquered the world, and the task is not over yet.
Of course, while affirming the story, it will also calmly look at the shortcomings of the plot. Except for Shi Lao and Jason, who turned around on the court, in the middle segment, the other players obviously showed signs of skipping work. Even if it is to show the background of the characters one by one and try to support the framework of the group play, this method will not be a big problem for the series, and it will definitely have an impact on the film. Compared with the skill of the old screenwriter of "Rocky", the skill of the old scriptwriter in this film is not so shown. smoothly. Although there are a few dialogues that are humorous and ironic, such as the three brothers’ dialogue in the church, which is very impressive, I just moved to "planet hollywood" and changed the lines to the content related to hotel management. Another example is the wrangling when meeting with the connector Sandra, and so on. But it can't cover up some other cold spots, some pale, and cumbersome problems. When I watched this film, I thought of someone. If Mr. Shi calls Quentin to help him make some silly jokes, it is estimated that there will be another effect, as long as the chatter is closed, at least the plot will be fuller and the characters will be more vivid. Sorry, it's crazy!
It is said that "The Expendables" does not rely on CG. What it wants is to show the power of men with absolute kung fu skills, and generously roll up the retro style of "borrowing", allowing people to travel to the 80s and 90s. The feeling of age. Is it my tortoise? I always feel that Mr. Shi has not tried his best. This has nothing to do with the amount of investment and which level it belongs to. It is a problem of the director’s execution and control. The photography technique is not solemn and perfect enough. The scene is controlled, but the details are rough. I want to edit it. It's hot and fierce, and the effect is a bit Rush, and it is a pity that it is still unfinished. At the same time, he can also feel that he is swaying left and right in the film style positioning, and he is unable to do what he wants. Want the simple and hard work of the 1980s? Or to show new violence that keeps pace with the times? contradiction! The return is not free and easy, and the peeling is not simple enough. I might be wrong! I forgot that "The Expendables" is a Hollywood action movie, and forgot its American nationality.
Talking to the old school, I said that the game where Jason helped his girlfriend vent his anger was magical, like a violent wind sweeping fallen leaves. I don't have a cold, but playing basketball is not bad. Mr. Pai believes that "fear of hands and feet" has always been a shadow that traditional Hollywood violent films cannot get rid of. The color of the picture and the emergence of violence have to be taken into account to meet the tastes of Americans. He is not optimistic about the performance of this short section. For him, there is a certain preconceived approach in the Japanese movie "Must-kill Fist". In his words, Stallone does not shy away from nostalgia, borrowing from, and imitating, so why not smash it to the end. Visitors don't have to be nervous and restrain their emotions.
In this film, many fighting scenes may not reach the highest level that can be achieved, such as martial arts, karate, wrestling, taekwondo, judo, bodybuilding (large and special type), etc., plus airplanes, artillery, advanced firearms, darts, etc. The dispatched labor is so rich in resources, but there is some soy sauce left, and it feels like rushing to return home. Is it a waste of resources? Micky Locke recalled that paragraph is also very "the main theme", this old man's face can bluff people, why not use it? Hold the injustice for Terry Cruise. If you say that most of them are old heroes with folds, Terry is still clutching the tail of "youth". Look at him with muscles and only control a gun, Shi Lao is Didn't dig deep into the potential of the newcomer!
Regarding the action scenes in this film, most fans think it is magnificent, powerful, and perfect. I am not provoking, or regretting. For action movies, it is obvious that the existence of the master of the whole show is very important. A master can design a variety of styles that will be coherent and compatible. The old guys have deep feelings for Shaw Kung Fu movies, and he doesn't discriminate against the new ones. I am a rookie, but we unexpectedly coincide. While watching this film, I also thought of another person, Sammo Hung. Sorry, it's crazy again!
My nonsense, I hope I didn't make friends who like "The Expendables" jump. Although I complained a little bit here, I will still admit the success of this film. I gave "The Expendables" four stars, not for anything else, for Stallone's dedication and sincerity in this film. Putting aside the issue of plot structure, the veteran who should have been extremely proud, who has passed the sixties, did not play personal heroism, and tried to pave the way for the heroes of all walks of life, which is touching. In addition, in writing such a clichéd plot, he just right gave the supporting actress room to play, I remember "The Expendables", in addition to fighting and killing, there is also a foreign affair. More importantly, persistence, desperation, dedication, great!
