near future, the global environment will gradually deteriorate. The mysterious alien colonists sent huge, cold, swift, and poisonous monsters to the earth one after another through the wormhole "gap" at the bottom of the ocean, and methodically implemented their colonial destruction plan. To this end, humans joined forces to create the "Skull Project" to create mecha warriors that are comparable in size to the monsters to fight. However, as the monsters gradually evolved, the mecha warriors were completely defeated, and politicians from various countries tried to build a defensive "wall of life". In order to stop the invaders' footsteps, they soon encountered setbacks.

"Pacific Rim" is like a love letter to otaku, and is called "the "little era" of otaku by netizens. The viewing process of the film is like playing a 131-minute roller coaster game.

The dream of driving a robot to fight monsters. As a friendly reminder, there are 15 seconds of easter eggs interspersed in the credits at the end of the credits.

"Escape Plan" continues the usual style of Hollywood blockbusters, with tight rhythm, ups and downs in the plot, and the whole process No urine spot. The biggest attraction in the film is the co-performance of the two action superstars Stallone and Schwarzenegger, and the various fights, gunfights and big scenes satisfy the audience's visual experience. The two superstars were already quite old when filming "Escape Plan", but they still continued their previous style.

A new round of crisis is coming, and the earth is facing a greater disaster...
Compared with the domestic popularity, the foreign reviews of the film seem to be not as good as expected, and even received a lot of negative reviews. The freshness of Rotten Tomatoes is 17%, which is a four-part series. The lowest rated one. There are a lot of implanted advertisements in the film. For example, when Yue Shuhua stopped to rest after being chased by "Tomb Wind", he took a box of Yilishu Hua milk from the refrigerator next to him and drank it ("Transformers 3: Darkness of the Moon") "There are similar lines in "Wait until I finish drinking Shuhua milk"); the news of the Hong Kong War was broadcast live on the screen of the office building of Pangu Daguan, etc.
Violent Neighborhood (2014)
Global box office: $068.9 million
Chinese box office: $29.8 million - (43.2%)
North American box office: $020.39 million - (29.6%) The
story takes place in Detroit, the United States, where rising crime rates and expanding criminal forces make The police are miserable, and in order to control these "destabilizing factors", the police have designated "red brick special zones" to isolate criminals and civilians. In the special zone, the criminal group headed by drug lord Tremaine (Robert Fitzgerald Diggs RZA) controls most of the resources and power, creating a precarious and delicate balance.

At the same time, the ambitious detective Damian (Paul Walker Paul Walker) also hopes to arrest Tremaine, who has done many evils. Lino and Damian, who have different personalities but the same situation, come together and decide to join forces.
In terms of the plot, there is nothing "novel". The similarity between the new version and the old version is even more than 90%. Except for changing the rescue of the sister to the rescue of the girlfriend, basically I can't see the "new" of this film. "Where does it manifest. And there are many flaws in the plot. The film is a subdued subject matter, and if it lacks new ideas, the results can be imagined. Without Paul Walker, and all the parkour action mixed with hip-hop, the movie would only be reduced to a more mediocre level.
Need for Speed (2014)

must be admitted that when "Breaking Bad " ended, this "Need for Speed" started very well . In this movie, which was born out of the game, the car engine is blasted from beginning to end, but the plot is also weak and explosive. It is worth mentioning that this is the first commercial blockbuster with "Little Fan" Aaron Paul as the male No. 1. Aaron Paul played the role of the male No. 2 in "Breaking Bad" in the past year. And the overnight hit, he definitely felt he deserved a better role than this nervous, silent, mediocre character.

"Furious 7" is a bit contrived and very good at entertaining the audience. A delightful movie with intense fight scenes, exaggerated performances, and occasionally witty dialogue. Never mind the "unreal" scenes in the movie - like a car crashing into a military helicopter, fans know how to leave common sense behind when watching Fast and Furious. Although it is a bit visually fatigued, this kind of film with an extremely tense rhythm from beginning to end is easy to let the audience indulge in it. The film caters to fans on all levels, and it's Paul Walker's curtain call.

Even if the iron fans may die to the end, "Terminator 5" box office The cold, in the final analysis, is the result of moviegoers not buying it, and it has nothing to do with the quality of the movie. The comprehensive evaluation of Terminator 5 by many authoritative media is too far from the first and second Terminator movies. Terminator 5 This time the evaluation has refreshed the lower limit of the Terminator series.

With superb driving skills and explosive skills, Frank broke through the hail of bullets and chases and intercepted, and performed "Father and Son Soldiers, Returning with Beauty" together with the retired secret agent dad.
The film is as cool as ever and the luxury car is extremely fast, as always, it has no brains and insolence. It is difficult to say that the plot of this film is compared with the other three films. I believe many people will have a question when watching the film. Such a film is How to get the fourth film, cheap special effects, magical plot, nothing new in the car chase, and endless commercials.

"Extreme Thief" tenderness and violence, loyalty and betrayal, show the awe of extreme sports, even belief, and are also the values the film conveys to the audience. Leaving aside the plot for the time being, it is worth mentioning that the film's extreme field, skiing , rock climbing, high-altitude flying and other scenes have a large number of long-range shots, and there are also long shots, which set off a more tense atmosphere. Flying at high altitudes, every drum beat of the music is heavily beaten in the heart, giving people a sense of urgency and immersion.
Warcraft (2016)
Global box office: $432 million
Chinese box office: $220.8 million -- (51.11%)
North American box office: $046.9 million -- (10.9%)
Azeroth and Draenor are two planets of peace and tranquility. The continent of Azeroth has thrived for generations, and the orcs have toiled in the lands of Draenor.

The evil Gul'dan used demonic energy to open a portal - the Dark Portal, and brutally destroyed the homes of the orcs, turning the originally peaceful orcs into savage and brutal warriors, forcing them to wear Go through the Dark Portal to the human domain to do evil. Durotan (played by Toby Kebbell), the chief of the Frostwolf clan, discovered Gul'dan's conspiracy but it was too late, and had to lead his clan to leave the shattered Draenor. Looking for shelter on the mainland. Under the leadership of the leader Lothar (Travis Fimmel), facing the crisis of their homeland, they attacked the savage invaders while struggling to find a way to save them outside the war. Two races are facing the same crisis, can they survive this disaster smoothly?
"Warcraft" has too many stories to tell, but the audience can't really integrate into the plot. In addition to the royal castles of Stormwind, the towers of warlocks and epic battlefields, the movie hardly sees the rest of Azeroth. The movie spends a lot of time on the fight scenes, but the fight scenes are in a way too unreal to make it hard to feel the blood of the fight. Ultimately, the problem with the film is the game itself. Director Duncan Jones, as a professional Warcraft player, obviously wants to infuse his love for Warcraft into the movie, but it is still questionable whether it is worth it. The weak plot of the film is too deadly.
Now You See Me 2 (2016)

The hit "Now You See Me 2" is its sequel three years ago. The story continues three years ago, but ends with a huge twist. Compared with the revenge center of the previous work, "Now You See Me 2" has completely surrendered the protagonist to magic. Throughout the several magic tricks in the whole film, without exception, they are gorgeous and dazzling. If you take them apart, you can even perform them at a certain party.

According to legend, in the isolated Panda Village, there is the power to fight against the gods. In order to save the common people, Bao and his father embarked on their way home. Monkey (voiced by Jackie Chan), Spirit Snake (voiced by Lucy Liu), and Mantis (voiced by Seth Rogen) procrastinate together. Bao not only shoulders the mission of becoming a real panda hero, but also makes the villagers Meimei (voiced by Kate Hudson) and other new partners practice new skills, inherit the legacy of the master turtle (voiced by Randall Duk Kim), and jointly resist the evil spirits.
In terms of design, the entire poster inherits the style of the previous work, using a large number of Chinese elements, with oriental characteristics and blockbuster texture. The snow-capped mountains and houses hidden in the long sea of clouds behind the pandas all reflect strong oriental colors. The film as a whole continues the unique comedy style of the series, and continues to convey to the audience Po's optimistic, cheerful and courageous spirit.
God of War: Eyes of Power (2016)
Worldwide gross: $145.2 million
Chinese: $35.6 million -- (24.5%)
North America: $31.1 million -- (21.4%) The
story takes place on the lingering Nile River where palaces and pyramids stand. Ancient Egypt at that time was full of magic, monsters and gods. The ruthless god of darkness, Set, seized the Egyptian kingship that belonged to the god Horus, and plunged the once prosperous and peaceful country into conflict and chaos. The survival of mankind and the stability of the world are at stake. A young thief Baker is favored by God and embarks on a thrilling fantasy journey to save the world and his true love. To succeed, he must seek and obtain the help of the powerful god Horus, with whom he forms an unlikely alliance of "heroes." As human life is at stake, two heroes stand up and open a road of no return against evil... As a powerful enemy of Horus and Baker, Seth assigns henchmen to make their confrontation difficult danger. If the god Horus and the mortal Baek hope to prevail in this confrontation, they must pass a series of tests of courage and sacrifice.
It is the first time for Hollywood to put the mythological system of ancient Egypt on the screen as a whole. As a layman, we have no way to judge how much the film retains the original essence of ancient Egyptian mythology. If you only stand from the perspective of appreciating the movie, this "God War - Eye of Power" can only be regarded as a blockbuster with barely qualified special effects technology.
