Movie comics

I found some introduction before watching it. Is it another science fiction movie about superpowers? It turns out that I was wrong.

After reading it, let's briefly summarize: the two clues are very good to judge, and Dunn and Price respectively proceeded, crossed and developed. For now, Dunn as the main line is richer, his wife, son, and various life and work scenes; while Price mainly uses his childhood experience including the birth period, although there are also some scenes in the comics during the period. , But overall it is not rich. After Price and Dunn contacted, from doubt to step by step, the development of the plot seemed to be lengthy and difficult to judge. The same is true after reading it.

1. Price's purpose? Just to find a "superman" who is in the opposite situation to him, and then want to get a way to heal himself? And killing is also out of revenge for the gloomy childhood experience? This will be a little difficult for normal people. Accept it, but it is understandable from Price's childhood experience. The end of the film also points out Price's mental abnormality. But in the end Price's ending was abrupt, not that it was unreasonable, but the lack of sufficient support in front of it, and the overall feeling was astonishing and lacking in aftertaste.

2. Dunn’s superpowers? In the final analysis, it should include knowing the dark side of people and the bad things they plan to do (access methods include contact, remote sensing...), unbreakable (but not drowning and bacterial infections), amazing strength . God knows what else is there. It seems that as long as the plot requires, Du En has what kind of abilities. The latter movie designed the plot of Dunn fighting a gangster, but he didn’t see any superpowers at all. He almost drowned and was saved by the long sticks given by the two girls. I think this kind of fighting should be a bit stronger. The same goes for everyone. The seemingly magnificent music in the fight makes me a little funny. In the end, it seemed that Dunn would also become a character like Spiderman.

3. Comics? The description of comics at the beginning of the film, Price's multiple appearances in comics, and his own professional experience, etc. The comics have a high rate of photogenicity in this movie. Price relies on comics to overcome fear, and he seems to be living in comics. In the end, the movie seems to just want to tell us that this is just a comic book by Price and Dunn.

The weird plot development and some weird soundtracks can only make people feel unhappy after watching it, and I really don't like it.
