Overall, my evaluation of "John Carter" is relatively high.
Because the original is really good.
The story adaptation is also quite new.
The ending is also slightly different from the original.
If you like it, you can search for it.
Everyone feels that the 3D effect is not very obvious.
Indeed it is.
There is also a problem that the proportion of the scene and the characters is not right.
I always feel that people are too big and the scene is small.
But the brightness can still be adjusted.
It's not like the movies released before this year are generally dark.
When John Carter first arrived on Mars, he said, "My name is John Carter and I'm from Virginia."
But at the beginning of the movie, it says New York in the 18th century?
Even if he has gold mines all over the place, why did he end up moving to New York.
Just kidding.
Because Edgar Rice Burroughs is the originator of this type of movie.
Like "Avatar", "Star Wars" and the like follow this book.
It is inevitable that everyone thinks the plot is old-fashioned.
In fact, this is the first story of a hero saving Mei and turning the tide.
Let's talk about actors.
Recently, I have seen a lot of Mark Strong's works.
He can also be regarded as a villain with a name.
That kind of bad doesn't need to be played.
I feel like if that face is poked there again, I don't need to explain it to know that it is a bad guy.
Act to the core.
The heroine Lynn is very beautiful in the play.
Blue eyes!
Eye contact is really a must!
The clothes are also gorgeous.
But the acting is mediocre.
Nothing special, but it's said.
Kind of like Megan Fox back then.
The Tharks as a whole are very loving.
Lots of laughter.
Of course, the Monster Dog is the biggest highlight!
Worthy of praise is the clip.
The most beautiful part is the John Carter massacre and the burial of his dead wife.
The two stories are interspersed with different worlds and memories of reality.
very beautiful.
Sound is also ok.
Edgar Rice Burroughs is clearly a man of faith.
Believe that God created the world.
This is also the cornerstone of creative thinking.
The last book of Revelation in the Bible is the earliest and oldest "science fiction" story.
How many movies and fantasy scenes come from here!
Of course, this movie/original is also used to satirize the world.
Racial division leads us to forget the meaning of existence.
Heroes like John Carter are needed to save this broken dimension.

John Carter quotes

  • Tars Tarkas: Zodanga, red flags. Helium, blue. Zodanga is winning the war. But I say let red men kill red men until only Tharks remain.

    John Carter: That doesn't look like a fair fight.

    Tars Tarkas: Zodanga never fights fair.

  • John Carter: Stand behind me, this might get dangerous.

    [John fights the Zodangans. When he loses his sword, Dejah takes it and kills the remaining enemies]

    John Carter: Or maybe I ought to get behind you...

    Dejah Thoris: [Cleans the blood off the sword with John's clothes] You let me know when it gets dangerous.
