Now, I finally saw "Star Trek: Diablo Unbounded". The movie is over. There is an indescribable sense of contradiction. It is difficult for you to judge whether this is a good movie or a moderate work, because it reflects Abu The strengths and weaknesses of Ramsay's creation. JJ often says that he is not a fan of "Star Trek", but his ambition to create a new space opera and sci-fi epic is still revealed in the two "Star Trek" movies he directed. The previous episode directly restarted the series. In one episode, the most classic villain Khan was brought in, and the characters and background settings of the original story were subverted. However, compared to the prequel that has a wide range of previous works that can be used for reference and support, the story of "Darkness Unbounded" is more original, even if it can be regarded as the prologue of "Khan's Wrath", but the new worldview and timeline are enough To keep "Darkness Unbounded" independent, Abrams successfully introduced the role of Khan to give the whole film enough weight, but its shortcomings of "can dig but not fill" are also exposed. From the unfinished set of "Lost" to "Super 8" with a lot of thunder and rain, "Darkness Unbounded" also fell into the quagmire of insufficient stamina. Abrams abandoned the series’ consistent high-tech conceptual imagination and philosophical speculation, and instead led "Darkness Unbounded" with a high-speed action film rhythm. This would indeed make the movie more beautiful and easy to digest, but it also made The style of the whole movie is downgraded by one level. Khan chose Benedict Cumberbatch to perform the role of Khan. As a fan of Juan Fu, I was naturally ecstatic. A large part of the reason for watching "Darkness Unbounded" is also due to the role of Fu Fu. Joining, but as far as the whole movie is concerned, this role is a double-edged sword. Khan is a tragic hero, insidious but heroic and has a very leadership temperament. Choosing the powerful Cumberbatch to interpret this interstellar hero is naturally a wise move, but the role of Khan will be good and evil in his own body. The boundary between this pair of contradictions has become blurred and becomes more three-dimensional. You must know that Kirk and Spock, as the protagonists, represent sensibility and the other represents rationality. Both need to exist at the same time to reflect each other through contradiction, so In "Dark Unbounded" most of the time, the Khan has always been a playful existence, which makes "Star Trek" almost become "Khan Biography." However, Abrams’s ability to tell stories is still very good. The plot of the film is tightly connected. Although a single-line narrative is adopted, and the script is relatively thin, it can still be seen by the audience. "Deep space ejection" is actually It is a variation of the last episode of "Parachute Drop", but it has been greatly upgraded visually through excellent 3D special effects. The chasing battle with the ending Quintu and Juan Fu is also particularly exciting. Although Abrams let "Darkness Unbounded" lose the depth of "Star Trek" and appear to be upside down in the role, but fortunately, he did not lose the feeling of "telling a good story".
"Star Trek: Diablo Unbounded" may not satisfy all fans, but at least it will not let them lose information about this series. At least it can continue this evergreen sci-fi series. Here, I only hope that JJ, who has taken over another set of space epic "Star Wars" series, can change his shortcomings in the following creations. After all, the stage of "Star Wars" is even more vast. More difficult to grasp.
Additional complaints: Since Heath Ledger played a trojan horse in the "Dark Knight", almost all the villains in the heavyweight Hollywood commercial movies are obsessed with this trick, from "The Avengers" From the trembling forest in "The Great Breaking Sky Crisis" to Baden in "Dark Unbounded", the big evil characters not only moved in the same position after being arrested, but almost all were imprisoned in In the "goldfish bowl".
