I don't usually want to write movie reviews (mainly because I'm lazy), but after watching this movie, the more I think about it, the more disgusting I feel. First of all, I won't say that the plot insults the audience's IQ. Of course, it's no wonder. After all, most people have been saying that monster movies don't need human plots and just want to watch fights. Congratulations, you got your wish. Not only did we get more monster fights, but at the same time In exchange for a human story written with feet, I hope you can enjoy it. You have changed the stereotype of the previous few hard-earned monster movies, and monster movies will continue to be synonymous with stupid movies in the future.
But aside from the plot, there is deep racial discrimination in this film. First of all, the producer must have intervened. The requirement is probably a cool film within two hours. Of course, it is not surprising to interfere in artistic creation. . So the first thing that was cut from the film was of course the roles of people of color. The scenes of the two Asian actresses were all cut (Zhang Ziyi, Jessica Henwick). When your production company retweeted "StopAsainHate" Faster than anyone else, then turned around and deleted all the Asian female actors, black actor Lance Reddick was cut into a trivial supporting role, and many other actors were missing, all can be found on IMDB .
The rest of the people of color are all tool people (of course everyone in this film is a tool), two badly written Latino villains, classic funny black stereotype characters, little girl on Skull Island, Oguri Shun and Goth pull. Speaking of Skull Island, there are aboriginal people on the island (yes, they are also Asian in appearance) who have lived for thousands of years, and then suddenly they were wiped out by a storm and there is only one little girl left. Do you think they were wiped out in history? Are there not enough Aboriginal people? And kill all of your fictional Skull Island residents, just to leave a little girl as a tool to communicate with King Kong. Shun Oguri played the son of Dr. Serizawa in the first two films. With such a good actor and such a good character, how good a story can he write? Then he continued to be used as a tool man. His role could be played by any passerby. It would not make any sense for Oguri Shun to play Serizawa's son in this movie. Finally, the male protagonist Godzilla was used as a title. The movie that starts with Godzilla, crazy persecuting Godzilla and holding King Kong I can't understand, Godzilla is the king of the fucking monsters at the end of the last film! Before you make a movie together, you don't even look at what was filmed in front of you, right? Godzilla can also be turned into a tool man by you? Forcibly write a bunch of plots to make the audience empathize with you King Kong, what did King Kong do and he sat on the throne? Does he fit?
I never watch a movie for plot or logic (I’m not anyway), it’s about emotions and feelings. I also like a lot of movies with bad logic and plot, but this movie is the only one that feels full of malice after watching it. Brain Movies, Pacific Rim I can see the enthusiasm of the spinning top and the dream he had when he was 9 years old, GvK only has the money printing machine smell of Hollywood studios and the racism carved in the subconscious that maybe no one realizes, there is no any The emotion of the filmmakers is in it, even the first two films that everyone hates (I like them a lot) have the enthusiasm of the filmmakers and at least a respect for Godzilla. One star is given to all the behind-the-scenes teams and actors who worked hard for this film. I believe they should have no say in the final product of the film. If GvK is completely controlled by capital, the only purpose of making a film is to make money. If you can continue to make money, that movie is really dying.
Of course, the above are all my personal insignificant opinions. If you like this movie, there is no problem at all. Don't be affected by my opinions, and don't align with me because of different opinions. I sincerely congratulate you on finding A movie to enjoy. ?
Peace
