While many people are still talking about the long-shot problem of "one shot to the end" in the 2020 Hollywood war blockbuster "1917", the film's global box office exceeded 2 billion yuan, plus the 92nd Oscar gold The three awards for the best visual effects, the best photography and the best sound effects are even more coveted by many film companies.
Speaking of war movies, it has always been a very popular theme, because wars, which are called political continuations, can often be reproduced in the form of scenes to achieve the effect of ringing peace alarms.
Of course, the premise is that the film has to refuse to be shoddy, but if some bright elements can be added, it is likely to produce unexpected chemical reactions.
"War Phantom" is a film that was released on July 17, 2020. The director of this film was very clever. On the basis of the inherent war film, he added elements of horror and science fiction, and finally formed a film War horror science fiction film.
The film uses World War II as the story background. It tells the story of a 5-man U.S. squad who was ordered to perform a mission. After defeating the fascist defenders and successfully conquering the castle, it was discovered that there were ghosts in the castle. In front of the ghosts, they galloped on the battlefield. The soldiers suddenly fell into panic.
Towards the end of the film, the scenes presented to the audience were all about World War II, but at the end did I find that I was fooled. The original film was about the US military's war in Afghanistan. The previous paragraphs about World War II are all It is an illusion brought by black technology!
So some netizens said: When you thought it was a war movie, it suddenly became a horror movie, when you thought it was a horror movie, it suddenly became a science fiction movie, and when you thought it was a science fiction movie, it suddenly changed again. It became a war movie.
This is a very interesting logic. Fortunately, after the director has designed a big "trap", he can also use sci-fi techniques to resolve this "trap" very well. This is the director's very clever point. Some people say that the director is suspicious of borrowing.
But just because of the added sci-fi part of the film, it directly drove the film's story into a loop mode, which is similar to Tom Cruise's "Edge of Tomorrow".
So the ending actor woke up and went back to the beginning of the film. As for how the following story cyclically develops, the director directly gave the audience's imagination.
This kind of abrupt stop is also tried repeatedly in Hollywood.
It's just a pity that "War Phantom" is not a big production after all, so it won't win the high box office and big awards like "1917", which I have to say is a pity. 【END】
