Let's listen to a story about


a commoner who was entrusted with great responsibility by the heavens, and then encountered great troubles. In the end, he fought tenaciously to become a hero and embraced the beauty.


Is it familiar?


As an ordinary Hollywood blockbuster released all over the world, "Prince of Persia" actually did a good job. Look at the intense scenes, look at the slightly tight plot, look at the handsome men and women, and the slightly mysterious story background, it is definitely no problem to combine them to make you happy and excited. Prince of Persia stands out especially as his delicate fringe slot lacks serious contenders and has previously failed Clash of the Gods with a similar box-office strategy.


Considering that Hollywood's global distribution should not only take care of the audience with a huge age and IQ span, but also try to avoid the viewing gap caused by cultural differences, so it is inevitable that "Prince of Persia" is also the kind of "Prince of Persia" that is easy to watch at the beginning. A movie that thinks of the plot development and even the ending. But he fully satisfied the audience's viewing needs. The protagonist came from a poor family and entered the royal family and was framed, winning the sympathy of the public for the disadvantaged, while Jack's victory over the villain through hardships and dangers and fearless rape once again conveyed the mainstream values ​​of the United States. The background of the story is set to be exotic, which satisfies the audience's curiosity and strengthens the dramatic conflict. The sound and picture effects that are piled up with bold dollars are used to render the atmosphere, the aura is powerful, and it is very shocking.

What is remarkable is the performance of the protagonist Jack. For him who has an idol temperament but unfortunately crashed into the world of literature and art, this transition to successfully occupying the mainstream blockbuster film is amazing. I don't know if the difficult parkour scene used a stand-in, but looking at the little fleshy flesh exposed in his fighting scenes, I know that this guy has suffered a lot. You have to know that people used to be a niche student who took the literary route. Of course, the full sense of aura makes the film seem to be completely transformed into this guy's personal show, which is quite conscious of stealing the spotlight. After years of hard work, it is worth encouraging.


As for the Persian little sister who is 'the country and the city', I hope we can look at her face more and remember her name when we dislike other people's airports; after all, the vase professional household also has her helplessness.


It is said that the film was greeted with "enthusiasm" by fans when it premiered around the world, coupled with the courteous treatment of critics, and the strong derivative development capabilities of filmmaker Disney, making money is not a problem. And the most joyous is the Bond girl with the broken back. To paraphrase the editor of "Watching the Movie", the two potential stocks are now rising well, and they are being transformed into Depp and the next stop in the hands of Bruckheimer. Knightley.
