Before that, I want to say that to watch a movie, you have to have a position. My position for this movie is urban fantasy, and the settings in the fantasy category are all reasonable. If you are entangled with some problems in the setting of a movie, it is like you entangled with how those physical phenomena that can never happen in a science fiction movie happen. It is meaningless.
Only by accepting some of the settings in the movie, we can enjoy the surprise brought by the movie, right?
-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------
0. Let's talk about the main characters first.
Dylan is the hero and his four knights
[Daniel (Jesse, not Uncle Harry!),
Merritt (hypnotist),
Jack (licensing technology class),
Lula (responsible amuse ratio)];
to be toyed with Local tyrants [Walter (Daniel, Harry Potter with a long beard), Walter his father];
Sky Eye organization informant [Li (Uncle Jay Chou!), Grandma];
The old man who controls everything [played by Morgan Freeman, the name is too Long doesn’t want to fight... Call him old man].
1. At the beginning of the movie, it recalls the death of Dylan's father, and introduces Dylan's hatred of the old man, which can be regarded as the first one.
2. Then the camera turned to Daniel (Jesse) because of his suspicion and dissatisfaction with Dylan’s order for more than a year, he tried to find the celestial eye directly. But he was used by the little local tyrant Walter, and all the information in the phone was copied away, paving the way for Walter to find four knights. After that, our funny girl Lula came on stage~ and replaced Henry from the previous movie (Go home to have a baby...)
3. Immediately afterwards, Dylan, the undercover agent of the FBI, received intelligence to expose the evil deeds of an illegal technology company (disclosure of user information through smartphones). After receiving the notification and planning, our four knights are about to start their first mission!
4. In that technology company, Daniel used a series of cross-dressing techniques to sneak into the monitoring room, and with Jack (first-class card skills), the security of the monitoring room was taken away as a neurosis... On the other side, the girl Lula used her. The bitter meat horror magic attracted the attention of the audience, and Merritt (often wearing a black hat) took the opportunity to hypnotize the company's product publisher... and successfully exposed the inside story through his mouth.
5. At the same time, the FBI, which has received the news, launched a full attack to hunt down the four knights. Embarrassingly, Dylan revealed his identity during this period. Dylan and his Four Horsemen retreated as planned, but Walter (Harry Potter with a beard) calculated the escape of the Four Horsemen and pulled them after hypnotism. When I arrived in Macau, the Four Horsemen and the audience thought that they came out of the pipeline and went directly to Macau... I was taken aback when I watched it! ! On the other hand, Dylan, who was separated from the Four Horsemen, went to the prison to find the old man and took him out of the prison and boarded the flight to find the Four Horsemen...
6. The Four Horsemen were taken to the villain in Macau In front of Walter, through dialogue, it turns out that the reason why Okote Technology Company can leak user information is because that company has a chip. That chip can be used to copy the information in any networked terminal in the world (sounds great, but this is the setting! Setting!!!), Walter asked four knights to help him steal the chip, the four knights were forced Started the second mission! !
During the preparation of the props, the four knights met Li (Uncle Jay Chou!! I feel that one-third of the people in the movie theater are here for him!! Haha!!!) and his grandmother. After the Four Horsemen left, Dylan and the old man also came to this shop. And Dylan got the plot props [Inherited Watch]! ! !
7. Let's talk about the task. This task starts with card magic. What is amazing is that the four knights cooperate perfectly, so cool to explode! What impressed me the most was that at the beginning of the inspection, Jack deliberately brought his wallet to make the siren sound, in order to cooperate with Merritt's precise flying card to send out the chip at the last second! ! Oh my God! ! That's awesome! ! The most important thing is that you still remember Merritt playing flying cards with Jack when he first appeared in this movie? Obviously flying cards is Merritt's weakness, because he can't even fly two meters, okay! ! And it won't control the direction at all! ! But after hard training, in this task, he can be said to complete his task perfectly! ! ! That card flew full marks! ! ! I think this is both talent and hard work or luck! That's right, Niu X is unreasonable! ! !
In this plot, there is a person who is very abnormal, yes, he is the bearded supervisor! ! When Jack got the chip, the supervisor immediately began to let the security guard search the Four Horsemen! ! The real purpose is to force them to expose their flaws, and thus lose the chips stolen by the Four Horsemen. In other words, unfortunately, what the Four Horsemen stole was not the real chip, the real chip was in the hands of the supervisor. Hey, because this supervisor was sent by the old man. (I don’t know if I’m right, but this is the most reasonable explanation I think of.)
8. Before getting the chip, Daniel met Dylan, who came to look for, but had a quarrel. But it didn't delay Dylan to attract the hatred of the soldiers to himself in order to save his brother. In the end, Dylan was arrested and was retaliated by Walter (because in the last movie, Dylan and the others stole $140 million, a large part of which belonged to Walter's father's company). Like Dylan's father died, Dylan was put into the cage his father used during his lifetime and thrown into the sea. Dylan, at a critical juncture, remembered the plot props his father left him-[Inherited Watch]! ! He opened the cage with this, but he was dying. As he died, his good brother Daniel appeared! ! Saved Dylan (a miracle!). After life and death, the five-member group united again. He decided to retaliate in the way of a magician, exposing the evil deeds of Walter and his father, and the mission began three times! !
9. Jack, Daniel and Lula performed magic tricks on the streets of London in turn. The best X naturally belongs to Daniel's! Do you remember the floating water drop in Uncle Jaylen’s magic shop? Daniel controlled the rain based on this. That floating water drop is a real magic! ! ! ! The principle is: the water droplets drop down all the time, but within a certain time interval, the relative position of multiple water droplets is unchanged, then adjust the light so that it alternates between light and dark (frequency invisible to the naked eye), bright light It just shines on the passing water droplets, making the water droplets seem to be still! ! ! Daniel used this principle to perform the amazing rain magic trick! ! ! (It can be realized in principle, but in fact, it can't be realized because of the irregular fall of rain), my god, the magician's imagination is too cool! ! ! Compared with this, the performances of the other two young magicians were more mediocre.
The magic of these three people is just a cover, the purpose is to make Walter predict the position of the fourth person to perform. (At this time, Walt thought that the chip he wanted was still with the Four Knights, so he desperately wanted to catch the Four Knights and grab the chip. But in fact, the real chip was with the old man. At some time later, the old man will match the real chip with the four knights. The chip was dropped in order to cooperate with Walter to test the chip. The father dropped the chip to test Dylan and the Four Knights.) Then, the Four Knights pretended to be caught. The magic after that was performed for Walter and his son... (There is also the part where the four knights were thrown off the plane, haha, it is so realistic that I laughed)
10. Dylan and the four knights who exposed Walter and successfully got away When I arrived at the Tianyan base, I was told that everything in the previous article was arranged by the old man. The purpose is to test Dylan and the Four Horsemen, to make Dylan forget the pain. Sure enough, the old man is the big boss, everything is under control! ! ! It is reasonable to think about it, because every step of the need for the father, the father will come out to promote the plot...
Finally, the father said that they should not touch the curtain, but after they opened it, they found that it was a revolving ladder, so what was under the ladder? Hey, I believe it is the treasure left by the old man to the magician recognized by him. Pass the test and gain the inheritance! !
Anyway, after I watched the movie, it was quite shocking, because this is indeed a wonderful movie! ! ! ! What is the mentality of those who give one star and two stars? Speechless.
Well, that's it.
