On Wednesday afternoon, Mika ran to Sanlitun, and there was an amazing scene. Overcrowded, long queues at the ticket office. This is the first time I encountered a situation after watching dozens of movies in Mega. When it was my turn to buy tickets, I was told that there was only nine o'clock in the field, and the location was full of corners. I had no choice but to buy a ticket for the next day because I was so close. On Thursday afternoon, the attendance rate reached 80%.
Although there is a wave of bad reviews, especially on some professional film review websites, it has not affected the box office at all. In the United States, it has successfully broken the box office record for the premiere on Wednesday and became the second-largest single-day box office in history. In China, the film has also set a first-day box office record, and the total box office is even expected to exceed "Titanic"'s 370 million yuan, becoming the crown of imported blockbusters.
As for the afterthought, the plot is actually very clichéd and cannot escape the typical elements of American commercial films. The disaster is coming, the hero complex, and the hero is usually supported by a beautiful woman, and finally successfully saves the world. But the special effects are really amazing. The later stage and the real scene blend seamlessly. This is a test of the actors' acting skills, because the Transformers they face are actually just a cloud of air. Another selling point is the support provided by the U.S. military for this movie. In addition to the navy, land, and air forces dispatched and allowed to be used at the White Sands Missile Proving Ground in New Mexico, most of the U.S. military actors are genuine and have actual combat experience. Active duty soldier. No wonder some people say that this movie is simply a propaganda film for the US military.
In addition, there are still some places that make people criticize. One is the domestic deletion. Although only the subtitles and a few minutes have been deleted, I did not recognize it at all. There are still scenes shot in Shanghai. The second is that the design of the body is really ugly, especially the new sequel Decepticon Transformers, one is uglier than the other. That female Transformer is the biggest flaw in the film, and she can be completely personified, reminding me of the Terminator that I watched not long ago. The so-called veteran-level fallen King Kong is basically a combination of the Egyptian pharaoh and the predator.
The only explanation is the role of sponsors. GM naturally chooses the righteous side, so Autobot steals the limelight in the appearance, with bright colors and more slow motions when deformed. The Decepticons all end up like motherless children, hideous, bleak and inconspicuous, basically indifferent in appearance to cars, most of them are more like weird animals, and they can't tell which is which when fighting. With great difficulty, while routing Audi to perform, the result was completely vulnerable. Four laps were split in half, which was regarded as a revenge.
In fact, Transformers can play more roles to shape their personalities. Now they are still talking about humans. It feels like car robots are nothing more than advanced weapons.
What irritated me the most was the part about Hercules. In addition to its ugly appearance, it was completely impossible to compare with the animated version. It also brought two eggs, which became the biggest embarrassment of the film. It is reported that Hercules will become an important role in the sequel. As a result, not only did he appear late, but even the two Chevrolet nanny cars could not be killed. In the end, it was destroyed by American artillery. It was unreasonable.
Because Hercules was my first toy in the true sense when I was a child, if it didn't count as spinning tops and marbles. Thinking back to the situation now, my father should have chosen it, and then returned home to give it to me. At that time, I still had a sense of justice and asked why I wanted to send a bad one, but the excitement in my heart was unmatched. Hidden under the bed like a treasure trove, simple deformation and fit can make you indulge in every afternoon.
I was six years old that year. In fact, I prefer the Autobot Jazz, but I can't refuse the green Hercules. Now that I am twenty-six, I want to buy a few Transformers toys again, and then say something in my mouth, Autobot, Transform and set off!
It is not wrong to say that this is a movie about collective memories.
