The film was adapted from "Mars Princess" by Edgar Rice Burroughs, the famous American author of "Tarzan". to direct. Although the film can be called an apocalypse of science fiction themes, it has not reached the grand and huge political height of "Star Wars", nor has it reached the beautiful scenery of "Avatar". The only things worth seeing are a group of four-handed humanoids and two huge eyeless apes in the arena. Other than that, the masculine male protagonist and the princess of Mars who looks like Ciri are barely worth seeing.
If Disney wants this film to become another money-making tool after "Pirates of the Caribbean", the remaining two John Carter trilogy not only need to plug the huge loss of the first film, but also pay careful attention to investment. and innovative ideas. "Avatar" has caught up with a period of 3D chasing the tide that can be encountered and cannot be sought. If this film still uses the creativity of the 1930s to show off, it will not satisfy the extravagant curiosity of young people in the new century. Even if the mainland can contribute a lot to Hollywood's box office for the time being, the production team shouldn't take it lightly. At least, in terms of plot, one side has developed into a high-tech warship that is energy-saving and environmentally friendly, while the other side is a western knight running in the desert, so what do they use to balance the huge technological gap between them to fight for power? Not to mention mysterious people who can travel through time and space at will, why do they have to fight hard on Mars in the dust of the desert? Is it possible to win a sand ball and leave it to dig a hole when you are bored? ! Forget it, this is a sci-fi film, I don't want to be serious with the masters 100 years ago. I don't want to think, I just like to chew on popcorn to be instilled in children's shoes. In fact, this film will not disappoint you too much.
