This is a fake Ghost in the Shell

This is a fake Ghost in the Shell, the protagonist is Mira or Scarlett Johansson, not Kusanagi Motoko anyway. It can barely be regarded as a second-rate American sci-fi action film, and it is basically not related to cyberpunk. It's really emotional to watch. I gave it one star because he used the name of Attack in the Shell but not emotional points. Even if this film is not called Attack in the Shell, it can't be more than two stars.

This is a fake Ghost in the Shell, the protagonist is Mira or Scarlett Johansson, not Kusanagi Motoko anyway. It can barely be regarded as a second-rate American sci-fi action film, and it is basically not related to cyberpunk. It's really emotional to watch. I gave it one star because he used the name of Attack in the Shell but not emotional points. Even if this film is not called Attack in the Shell, it can't be more than two stars.

There are too many flaws in the plot logic. In order to force a plot that seems to be a simplified core idea of ​​attacking the shell (in fact, only the shell has been simplified), even the pre-tech setting background that carries the idea has been greatly rewritten. Change to the point where it violates the normal laws of scientific and technological development. Compared with the gradually developed and perfected settings of the previous three versions (the fourth version did not develop much but at least did not regress much), this version has so many loopholes that it is hard to bear to look at it directly.

Well, anyway, this is a fake attack in the shell, so I won't mention the original and the animated version, just watch it as a special effect action movie.

But ah, this picture and action are not enough!

The special effects are neither realistic nor gorgeous nor delicate, and they are not as good as the cutscenes in some recent game masterpieces. The details of the picture are not as good as the American comics in the past two years, and it is not as good as the two theatrical versions of the background madman Oshii Mori more than ten years ago. The growth animation of the protagonist at the beginning is not as rough as HBO's TV series "Westworld", and it is not comparable to the animation of the past dynasties. I seriously doubt that the modeler understands the human body structure. In the anatomy screen, the protagonist's chest is full of bionic muscles, and there is nothing like a fat-like thing. What the hell? The advancing rhythm of the lens is also out of control, and the eyes feel very uncomfortable.

Let's talk about the performance of the actors, I feel that Scarlett Johansson was not in the state the whole time, not to mention Lost in Tokyo, it is not a star and a half worse than the super body and Fulian. There are many outfits, the only gratifying thing is that the main film doesn't look as fat as the trailer...

The previously rumored puppet king and laughing man do not exist, and the so-called Kuze only has the name and the identity of the suspected protagonist's old lover. Pete's temperament is still the same as that of Jimmy Darmody.

There is no such thing as a tribute to the gods and horses of the previous work. If you don’t understand the meaning and classics of the previous work, you will start copying, and the copy is not good. Can it still be called a tribute? Do you think fans of the previous game are stupid?

However, all of the above should be regarded as the pot of smashing performances. After all, it is a smashing performance that only scored 6 points in IMDB before, so it is not surprising that this time a film has the lowest score in history. Some people say that doing this is to cater to the appetite of non-fans and European and American audiences, but IMDB has fallen below 7 now, and the American people are not easy to fool! It remains to be seen how much the final score of this version will be smashed.

Some people say that this time at least it can promote the previous work to the fans of the shell circle. I think it will be for the fans of Scarlett circle at most. The new audience who were originally interested in the shell can watch a 6-part film. How interested are you? Anyway, when I finished watching the show, most of the non-fan audience members said: "Well~ still (bing) OK (bu) let's (xing)", I'm afraid it's just to comfort myself, save it. Wondering if it's a waste of money.

    Basically all the scenes in the film have been seen in similar science fiction movies. The problem now is that the cool effects have been completely unable to impress the audience, because the asymmetry of information and imagination has basically disappeared. So this kind of movie still depends on the kernel driver. But this film was completely turned into a blockbuster in the United States, eliminating all the possibility of a deeper pursuit.

    Indeed, from directors to actors, no one really loves to attack the shell.

Ghost in the Shell quotes

  • Dr. Ouelet: Do any of the glitches mean something to you?

    Major: No. They don't.

    Dr. Ouelet: You've been inside the same shell as he has. That could have... very serious consequences. You were not authorized to Deep Dive the geisha.

    Major: You're disappointed.

    Dr. Ouelet: No, I'm worried. You're not invulnerable. I can repair your body, but I can't protect your mind.

    Major: Why not? You can see all my thoughts, so... you should be able to secure them.

    Dr. Ouelet: Try and understand your importance, Mira. You're what everyone will become one day.

    Major: You don't know how alone that makes me feel.

  • Major: The Harbor. My parents. The way they died. Did that happen?

    Dr. Ouelet: No. We gave you false memories. Cutter wanted to motivate you to fight terrorists. I didn't approve. It was cruel, but my work, it was important, and... you were born. You were so beautiful.

    Major: Nothing I have is real.
