After watching "Havoc in Heaven", I was very angry. If it was a few years ago, I would probably have wished for a clone technique, and I would have been criticized and scolded all over the Internet. But now, I admit defeat, and I have long understood the truth that it is impossible for you not to let people watch movies during the Spring Festival. This is not a question of freedom of consumption, but between "Havoc in Heaven" and "Where Are We Going, Dad" and "Macao", a viewer obviously cannot make a suitable and appropriate choice. Even outside these three films, the existence of "Predecessor's Strategy" and even the unscrupulous "Da Hua Tian Xian" together form a gorgeous Chinese bad film club. If I had to make a recommendation, my choice would be not to recommend at all. It should be said that "Havoc in Heaven" is a very bad and mediocre blockbuster, so bad that you don't know from which angle to criticize it, because it is all-round and has no dead ends. The clumsy special effects, the phalanx of heavenly soldiers like "Golden Armor in the City" (Zhang Yimou is a real group gymnastics anyway), have no aesthetic feeling, and have no film aesthetics at all. Bad lines, deliberately showing off, trying to be down-to-earth and pleasing, but the result is boring and disgusting (about the level of Liu Zhenwei's jokes at present). The extremely fake Huaguoshan scene, the inexplicable props Pandaren, and even the ultimate setting of Sun Wukong's transformation into King Kong, these are all terrifying contents. "Dragon Unleashed", the essence is lost. Thinking of this, people can't help but miss last year's "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons", at least, after reading it, you will still want to say something. Actors will love this movie because it requires little or no rivalry or suffering in Hengdian. This movie doesn't even have the aesthetics of the film and television base that I hate, everything is the aesthetics of the Chinese special effects blockbuster that was born out of nowhere. The glittering Tiangong, the Huaguoshan of third-rate children's dramas, and the wise devil world. Their visual effects are so inconsistent, they are not on the same plane at all, but after ingenious post-production, they are like the stitched monsters in Warcraft, and they leave the slaughterhouse with murderous aura. In this movie, you can't see the real actors, just like you can't recognize Donnie Yen, the master of action doubles, like the unfortunate witch who was disgraced by P. Since you don't speak human words at all, you can't see a decent person. Therefore, there will only be a mass of P's anger on your face. "Journey to the West" or "Havoc in Heaven", on the surface, they are not about human affairs, but about monsters and monsters. But everyone who understands knows that the fantasy and absurd things mentioned are actually the experience of the dynasty. Fourteen hundred years after the early Tang Dynasty, similar stories have been played out in this land. Modern people play, not only intrigue, but also haunt and harm Human monsters. Needless to say, "Havoc in Heaven" didn't think of this at all. All they wanted was special effects, hard but rubbish special effects, and unfinished but rushed special effects. Let's just say that the mentally retarded monkey-fox love, watching children play the house is more interesting than the movie. Not to mention, Chinese movies have already had too many wonderful adaptations of the original works. Such a movie is by no means unwilling to make progress, but it has never thought about making progress at all. If half a lifetime of life and a 30-year regression can still make a full profit at the box office, I believe this group of black-hearted filmmakers will also sign a contract agreement with the devil. As for word of mouth, as for the audience's response, as long as you take out that red ticket, this group of people has already laughed. As for the rest...no one cares about wiping ass.
