put it bluntly, it is an old-fashioned Hong Kong-style martial arts film, the 3D animation effect is still good, but The content is old-fashioned and boring, and the theme is nothing but the empty Inner Peace given at the beginning. Compared with 1, it can be said that in addition to catching up with the 3D tide, there is no progress, but a lot of regression.
I think that the five heroes, panda and snow leopard confrontation in 1 was a real kung fu. Although it was a wild and imaginative play, every move and style were all the same. In 2, it turned into a juggling act. strength. In fact, in the final battle between the panda and the snow leopard after realizing the Dao, the use of strength and strength to overcome the rigidity with softness is already a perfect demonstration of the essence of Tai Chi. In 2, Tai Chi has turned into a flower fist and embroidered legs, holding a cannonball in a 36,000-degree circle in the air, which is like in Peking Opera. The somersault came alive.
The scenes are also big or small, and there is no single-player duel in small scenes. There are a lot of cannons and giant ships, but the cannons are sporadic. What the gigantic fleet wanted was a scene where ten thousand cannons were fired, but now it has become one cannon in the east and one cannon in the west, one shot at a time for pandas to play with. It should have been vigorous, but it turned into the feeling of throwing the ball and playing at home, which is really disappointing.
The only bright spot is the one-on-one confrontation between Peacock and Panda. Peacock's Kung Fu is very good to watch, but unfortunately it is too short, far less than the two scenes of Five Heroes vs Snow Leopard and Panda vs Snow Leopard in 1. The kung fu of the game is not set high, in fact, it is weaker than the panda from the beginning, and it does not have the excitement of fighting against the snow leopard in 1.
From the beginning to the end of the film, a bunch of Tai Chi symbols were inserted abruptly. It felt completely inexplicable, blunt and abrupt. Later, when I found out that the director was originally Korean, I realized that these blunt Tai Chi symbols were not intended to express the Chinese Tai Chi spirit at all. Promoting the flag of Korea, the flag of Tai Chi. The Chinese Tai Chi spirit is that Taoism is natural, moisturizing things silently, instead of waving the flag and shouting all day long, dangling a Tai Chi diagram in front of your eyes for fear that you will not know. In 1, the enlightenment of the panda is the manifestation of the spirit of Tai Chi. In 2, the opening scene is a Tai Chi picture, and then the little panda master practiced a set of Tai Chi, and the whole film set the tone.
In addition to the display of 3D special effects technology, the entire film is a third-rate Hong Kong-style martial arts film routine that was abused in the 1970s and 1980s. To say that the blood, excitement, and scenes of kung fu films are far less than the undefeated situation in the East. Resurrection of such a classic, whether it is preaching or funny, is extremely blunt, and there is absolutely no natural and smooth feeling in 1. 1. After watching it, I want to watch it a second time, and I want to discuss the plot with people. 2. After watching it, I feel like I have watched a special effects juggling movie. I have no desire to watch it again or discuss it with people. A bunch of Tai Chi flags floating all over the place, that's all.
In general, except for the 3D effects that can be seen, it is completely a mediocre work of Shanzhai Hong Kong-style martial arts, far inferior to the classic work of 1.
