ST12: Drive into the darkness or drive out of the darkness

The late "ST12" movie experience,,,

watch alone, I thought I would repeat the cups of the last "Loop Messenger" reservation. Unexpectedly, from the beginning of the ST theme music, I directly followed the Enterprise in space. This movie-watching experience is an experience worth remembering. It’s been a long time since I felt like being fully integrated into the movie. This movie is also an opportunity for me to fall in love with the ST series, just like it might be in the eyes of others. It's not worth mentioning, but it has no general meaning to me.
The overall plot of the movie is still very compact, with continuous small climaxes throughout the story, but the ending battle has become a pseudo-climax. The specific reason is still in the plot. The point of image is that a hole is dug in the front of the plot of the film, and the middle is dug to change. Finally, when it is about to be filled, it is found that there is no soil. The scribbled ending treatment makes the film one step away from the ST masterpiece, which is really regrettable, but other than that, the rest of the film is still very satisfying. After all, the final quality of the film did not go into the darkness as explained by its subtitle. Under the general condition of the general quality of commercial masterpieces, the company successfully stood out and became this year's relatively outstanding commercial masterpiece.



Since I have made up the first two parts of the ST series before (now I have seen 7), some tribute points are still very easy to find. The biggest tribute is probably the final parting of Kirk and Spock, a long time ago in another universe. A similar parting scene of life and death happened in China, but this time it was Captain Kirk. Whether it’s friendship or basic love, this is the most touching scene in the whole film. When Kirk tried his hand to make the Vulcan’s "prosperity" gesture, I completely ran into tears.



Let’s talk about the villain’s blessing. Before watching it, I had never heard of him. As for the "Sherlock", I’m sorry I don’t watch TV series. . . What impressed me the most in the trailer was his voice. The voice: "shall we begin" directly made me feel a little bit of chill. In other words, in recent years, the villains successfully created by Hollywood have been a little bit abnormal, and their personality charm is often overwhelmed. Positive characters, such as the clown, Hannibal, John Doe, etc., like Iron Man 3, this kind of villain is very capable at first glance, and is served by people’s hometown, but it is difficult to have a sense of existence. And Juanfu relies on his sexy The voice has won a lot of sense of existence and personality charm, but "ST12" is also the same as the "Steel 3" villain, all on the bright side have become puppets. Although the word puppet is used on the volume of Fu, it is a bit inappropriate, but it is in The first 2/3 of the film is hardly a complete villain, and there is a moment of alliance with Kirk in the middle. It was not until the death of General Marcus, the mastermind behind the scenes, that he was promoted to the first villain, so in the performance The playing time for Juan Fu is not very full, and this kind of setting is also difficult for him to excavate very well in any role. Although limited, as mentioned above, his voice, personality and charm are also powerful. The aura still left a deep impression on people.



Since the restart of ST, many Trekkie have been very dissatisfied, the original essence of humanistic caring spirit disappeared. I can not be regarded as a real fan, at best a fake fan, yes. It’s not easy to say anything. The most important thing is that I can’t say anything about Malay-_-|||... But from the beginning of the rescue of the dying nation, to the end of the "five-year plan" proposed by JJ also Some changes have been made for Trekkie.



It starts with the gorgeous red planet at the beginning and ends with the spectacular scene of a huge starship falling into the water. The visual effects of this film are still significantly upgraded compared to the front part, and for those popcorn-controlled audiences, they can be satisfied. In addition, if the theater viewing, sound effects and soundtrack are very powerful, it is a very refreshing excitement for the audience. After all, this kind of multi-channel stereo surround sound can only be felt in the theater. In terms of sound effects of ST12, the overall feeling is not as good as the "Forget" I watched a few days ago, but it is still in the acceptable range. Space is actually a good place to display sound effects, so the sound effects of this film can be played in many places, although the company number The sound effects during warp flight have been tasted in the upper part, but the feeling on the screen is still different. And when the Enterprise drew two magnificent galaxies in space, I thought this might be the most beautiful place in the whole film. The sense of the vastness of the universe is close at hand and within reach. Although the soundtrack may be like fried rice, I was brainwashed by MG's ST theme before, so when the music accompanied the stars of Paramount, I was already wandering in it. The London piano section is considered to be the whole film. Stunning original soundtrack passages.



Compared with the dark 3D effect of "Steel 3", the 3D of "ST12" feels pretty good to me. After all, it is ordinary 3D, and the requirements cannot be so high, but it does not seem that I will fall in love with 3D, on the contrary , No, there is no 2D field, I would not choose 3D.



After watching 12, I went back and watched 11 again. This time I watched it again. I really admire the screenwriter’s ability to think of restarting this series by using parallel universes. It is true that the quality of the film is worse than ST12. It is not so much to restart this series as it is to make this series a perfect continuation, because of the ingenious design of parallel universes. This film successfully broke away from the original movie timeline and laid a solid foundation for the redevelopment of the series in the future. After ST12 was released, some people said that this film was a prequel to ST2, which is obviously wrong. And the same is digging pits, the filling of 11 pits is really unusual.



By the way, in addition to love halo, JJ really loves to dig pits. Lost digs the big pit, but did not fill it; Mission Impossible 3 digs the pit, but it did not fill it; Star Trek 11 continues to work hard and continues to dig the pit, but I did not expect to plan out the ancestral grave, but it was filled well; super 8 Continue to dig, and the filling is fairly flat; at ST12, obviously not digging is not in line with JJ's character. JJ ordered to dig, and the screenwriters worked hard to dig the pit. Unfortunately, the digging was too large, and it was dug out for the 31st district. It can only be filled with potholes. . . The above is pure molesting, don't care, haha!



Well, I look forward to "Star Trek 3: On the Rationality of Digging the Hole and the Necessity of Filling the Hole", well, no kidding, I am still looking forward to the sequel, but JJ is now stepping on two boats and he is weak. If you change The director must find a reliable one!

Rating: 4.5/5
