, it was three o'clock in the morning after watching the premiere. When I got home, I ran to the Internet and posted a venting post: Witnessing the worst episode of the "Harry Potter" film series. After venting my anger, I calmed down a bit. I woke up in the morning and thought about "Ha 6". As a result, the bad impression of the film showed no signs of improvement, and it seemed that the source of dissatisfaction had been found. Starting from the last episode, "Harry. The "Porter" movie is becoming dull, boring, old-fashioned, and incomprehensible because of self-constraint in creation. Especially "Ha 6" reminds me of a domestic biographical movie of domestic characters last year. Hollywood blockbusters like "dancing in shackles". I wonder if the novel author Rowling has too much interference in the film adaptation?
Even though many book fans think "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" is the least exciting book in the novel, I still think that the movie can be more exciting, more dynamic, and more capable than the current movie version of "Ha 6" Show the magic of the magical world. The current movie version of "Ha 6" is basically an abbreviated outline of the novel without any adjectives. It feels that all the characters on the screen are reading the lines of the mechanical version, reluctantly completing their work, and can't feel anyone's response to this. The passion that a series of movies deserve. I have heard of Rowling’s increasing opinions on film adaptations before. I even heard that David Yates was chosen to be the director because he was the most obedient. Otherwise, why did "Ha 5" be announced before the filming was finished. He is the director of the next three movies? After watching "Ha 5", there was an unpredictable feeling, but at any rate, "Ha 5" also had several battles with members of the Order of the Phoenix, which paved the way for the death of Sirius at the end. That time I was really moved.
And the whole film of "Ha 6" is like a premeditated funeral march, and it is still the kind without any melody. In the end, when Old Deng was killed by Snape, all I felt was sleepy. Not to mention that there are many passages that can be suitable for film performance, but they are completely skipped by the film. Only the last scene of the heroic death of old Deng, the original novel has also provided a strong enough atmosphere and atmosphere, the film still put emotions Emphasis was placed on the previous passage of searching for "artifacts" in the cave, and the final duel was quite discouraged and scribbled.
The most terrible thing is that until now I can’t think of any place in "Ha 6" that I can compliment, the production level? Or the soundtrack? These are the most basic bottom lines for such a super entertainment blockbuster with a production cost of more than 100 million U.S. dollars. For such movies, there is really no need to have tolerance and fraternity for domestic films, and bluntly find some positive angles that can be self-motivating. For me, "Ha 6" makes the audience uncomfortable, which is the biggest fault. If there are no intense action scenes in the whole film, it does not matter, as long as the temperament is dark enough and the characters are exciting enough to allow the audience to see a young version of "The Dark Knight", that's okay. But what did "Ha 6" do? The two important clues to reveal the secret of the young Voldemort and the identity of the half-blood prince are understated. Most of the time, they show Harry Potter's stalking and suspicion of Malfoy, and then it is a lengthy show of two pairs of love scenes about how to see and how to twist. The key reason why the characters in the novel are young is very different from the actual age on the screen. The British boy is 19 years old. He looks like a junior college graduate in China. As a result, they are still pretending to be middle school students on the screen. I like the "Porter" series of movies again, but looking at Lori and Zhengtai who are full of adults who are still dressing up in the magical world, I can only feel numb all over.
"Ha 6" is like a film made by an elderly Death Eater who has retired and is still dependent on being laid off as a director. It is also a particularly boring Death Eater who desperately pretends to have a sense of humor, but even if the film completely proves it David Yates is a mediocre director. I still want to say that this kind of board has to hit investors and producers, especially the novel author Rowling. Under the Hollywood system, it is impossible for everyone to take a blind eye, to praise a mediocre director as a genius, and to support such a director to direct the four most profitable film series in Hollywood history, but the reality is that this dizzying decision really appears. I’m not willing to take it anymore, and I’m willing to take a bad one. I can only say from the perspective of audiences and film critics: I don’t want to take it. Maybe I will continue to watch the next two movies, but I will definitely not go. Watch "Ha 6" a second time, even if it is the IMAX 3D version. I can only use this way to express my respect for the "Harry Potter" series over the years.
