The gimmick of the X-Men propaganda has always been the final chapter, and there is a kind of movie that you have been chasing for so many years. This is the last one, and I am ready to harvest your tears. I also did prepare enough tears for it to prepare tears for the theater.
But the truth is I didn't cry at all.
That's right, watching the movie with low tears, I didn't shed a single tear while watching the final chapter of X-Men, the superhero series I've been following the longest.
I've been thinking about why after watching it. Is it because it's been three years since the last one and I've forgotten it? No, it is still three years from the first battle of Reversing the Future, and it still makes me cry to the core in the movie theater. Is it because there is no wolf wolf actor unfamiliar? No, it's the ninth year now that Professor Wan X has joined the actors in the first battle of Mystique Beast.
I don't think this movie was trying to connect emotionally with fans at all when it was filmed, or the connection it was trying to make was ineffective. The connections here are "We are the only ones left after the first battle", "We all love her", "I want to give you a home". However, the actual behavior is that my sister Lan had a crisis of confidence in the professor at the beginning and tried to leave with the beast. Qin was furious because she found out that her father was still alive and abandoned her and the professor told a white lie, and the beast suddenly accused the professor of being angry. Run to find Lao Wan to kill Qin. I have always believed that Family is the core element that runs through all X-Men movies, just like Yimei said in an interview, "What makes X-Men different from most other super movies is that they can find emotion in the relationship between the characters." This kind of Emotions are not colleagues, comrades, or even friends, but relatives. They have never been the kind of superheroes whose sons were chosen by everyone and who are envied and applauded everywhere. They are just a group of ordinary people who are different from others but long to live a normal life, understand each other, respect, accept and warm each other. They have gone through so much together, and they have gone through no matter how hard it is. Now, as soon as your movie came out, it took only ten or ten minutes to make this family that had been consolidated for decades torn apart?
I can not accept. Yes, it's not that the X-Men didn't have conflicts before, and Lao Wan and the professor didn't fall in love and kill each other from the first day. But before, there was a reasonable logic, and there were differences of ideas within the scope of understanding. It's definitely not all your fault in this part, please admit it, I'm going to kill you, don't kill the children fighting. I, Lao Wan, are by no means a scumbag who goes back and forth in this movie.
The inexplicable emotional turn, the disappearing family concept, the brain-damaged alien creatures, and the blunt forgiveness and redemption are the reasons why I was not moved.
But ask me if there is anything I like. Yes, everyone in the carriage stood up in unison and looked forward firmly, the protective barrier around all the team members after Qin woke up, and the chess piece in Lao Wan's hand without a helmet. These are the X-Men I've been chasing for so many years.
But in the end, this is not the final chapter that I understand. The fallen cross in Langsanli is what I think is the full stop.
