For an animation adapted from the animation of the same name, I think the first thing to do is to respect the original, Spider-Man, Batman, Avengers, etc. Although the story is a bit different, at least the grasp and style of the characters respect the original animation. I'm particularly dissatisfied with Transformers 3 and Dragon Ball for this reason, and I even wonder if Mike Bell has ever seen Transformers. In addition to citing creativity, the style and character have also become unrecognizable, let alone Dragon Ball. It is a pity that such a tragedy also happened in Special Forces 2.
In the same way, I also doubt that the director has seen the special forces. What attracted me to the special forces at the time was the various strange weapons and all kinds of characters with distinctive characteristics. There are still some in the first part. But in the second part, the true colors of Laobu and Dushi not only didn't add points to the movie, but also greatly reduced the charm of the special forces, and also abandoned the advantages of the use of various new weapons in the first part. What are you going to do with the action and shootout movies of Lao Bo and Dushi?
Many people applaud the duel between the two ninjas, but if all the things in the original book can be shown, I believe there will be more applause. But the director relented. Maybe in order to have more box office and let the two superstars join and have more roles, he left out many things in the original book, which resulted in this originally laudable movie becoming so ordinary. 1+1 is less than 2 is reflected in this film.
I would like to exhort those directors not to discard what the original book should have in the face of commercial value. This will only make films that could have culture and charm become ordinary popcorn films, which I don't want to see.
