Watching "The Expendables 2", you may think that its plot is very idiotic, and it has no depth at all, and it is not luxurious compared to the scenes where money is thrown out, but this does not hinder its uniqueness and uniqueness. nice.
Saying it looks good, it may also be a little hypocritical. Because most people who feel good-looking are people who have experienced the time of videotapes in the 1980s and 1990s. And I happen to be one of them, although I don’t actually watch many of those old videotapes. But because the time it was in happened to be a passionate youth, when nostalgia began, even fragments would begin to float in the lingering time, and then occupy a certain afternoon in the nostalgia.
Stallone, Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis, Shange Wonton, Duff Ronger, Chuck Norris, these names are listed, plus Steven Seager, Harrison Ford and Jean Renault, they make up a passionate world of light and shadow, a film full of blood and fire, which may seem a bit funny today, not worth watching for two minutes, but in In the 1980s and 1990s, there were very few movies to watch. When there was nothing to watch, I would watch what I could watch over and over again and with relish. But it would be a big mistake to think that the above-mentioned actors are all brainless people just because they are muscular.
You know, Stallone is an all-round talent who can direct, act, and write. He is the person who has won the Oscar winner and won the Oscar for best original screenplay award. And Arnold Swarzenegger is a man who can act as Wu and can be in politics. Duff Rongel once received three scholarships from the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm and the University of Washington. He also obtained a master's degree in Australia and a scholarship to enter MIT for advanced studies. He is completely unlike his seeming brainlessness in the film. . Shange Yundun was also in a movie named after himself, scouring himself, and won the whole house. As actors, they are all people worthy of respect. To think of people as a muscular stick that only fights is really too despising of people. In that era, movies were simple, and people who watched them got simple happiness. The time spent together is the same.
In fact, the appearance of "The Expendables" itself is a kind of collective nostalgia. It is commendable in itself to gather a group of aging action actors together and watch them get together again in a group. Back then, any two people performing together would be a sensation. Moreover, in the face of the big scene where money is smashed at every turn, it is already difficult to reproduce the real actor who fists to the flesh. At this time, relying on a group of old men to come out and do what should have been done by young actors is not just what nostalgia can sum up, but it is full of sorrow. For the younger generation, just relying on Jason Statham is not enough, but apart from him, there are indeed not many action actors who can kill their lives. Adding Van Diesel and Dawn Johnson is not enough. The era must be the joint creation of a group of people, and the hard work of a single person is at best just the lingering life of the old era.
When the younger generation of actors have not yet made up, what is left is nostalgia. So after watching "First Blood 4" and "Rocky 5", we saw "The Expendables", and then It was "The Expendables 2". Fortunately, what it directly inherits is the memory of childhood. When "Transformers" is a time of collective nostalgia, it is not a good thing to watch a group of tough guys and the childhood idols set off again. Besides, they are not just dealing with it. Although he was old, he was still full of fists, still blood flying all over, still exciting.
Watching "The Expendables 2", what strikes people’s hearts are the things behind the film, the nostalgic and sentimental things. With these, you won’t be too entangled with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bruce. The sudden arrival of Willis and Chuck Norris’s nonsensical reappearance are very unreasonable from the plot point of view, but it is a pleasure to see them appearing, so why do they come out? There will not be so many. In order to be nostalgic, in fact, we have lowered our appreciation level, but we are happy. This is probably the real wish to fight and endure.
