Audiences who have followed this series all the way down may have the same doubts as me: How did these little gangsters in 1 become the superman who saves the world once every three days? According to the current expansion rate of combat power, I very much doubt that the lower speed will be linked with the Star Wars to go to space to fly the Star Destroyer and save the Galactic Empire.
Paul Walker's death has hit the Fast and Furious series and Vin Diesel so much that we as outsiders will never be able to understand, but it is impossible for investors to let this series of profits snowball more and more because of Paul's departure. In order to make up for the loss of Paul's star lineup, Jason Statham and Luke Evans, who played the Shaw brothers in Super 8, returned to the series and rose to protagonist status in one fell swoop. At the same time, Charlize Theron, whose acting skills are not bad, also joined the film as the villain.
The big scene of Fast 8 and CGI have reached the peak of the series, which is full of imagination, but I personally think that the best scene is the relatively "bland" racing scene at the beginning, and the zombie car scene in the back has , but the visual effect is not much better than the 1v1 racing, but it makes people feel a little disorganized. Speed and Passion is famous for street racing, but now the racing has become a bonus, and the focus has shifted to explosions and CGI pictures. Although the audience of the explosion is very popular, but there is a Transformers Mission: Impossible. Now that the Women's Federation, do we really need another assembly line movie that saves the world in CGI? Personally, what I like the most is the pure racing in the early days of Fast Furious, where the roar of muscle cars rejoices in revenge, and the whole story revolves around a relatively small and closed environment, deciding between good and evil. Only the revs of the engine. Now the hacker showdown in Fast and Furious, can fighter jets and tanks really stimulate the adrenaline of the audience more than the pure racing before? I have some doubts. The black guy next to me is the most exciting moment of the whole movie is the opening racing scene, and in the last half hour of the submarine battle, he is spread out on the seat...
There are many people who like to say that the plots of films like Fast and Furious are insignificant, and the special effects alone are worth it, but I think the film is a basic carrier no matter what genre the plot is, just like a bowl of rice bowls, no matter how delicious the dishes are The rice is also incomplete, it may not be the protagonist, but it cannot fail. The plot and logic of Fast Furious 8 are not so passable in my opinion.
The outline of the plot will not be spoiled, but I will only mention two points that I cannot understand the most. First of all, the plot of Dominic's blackening highlights a far-fetched, in order to save the two family members, obey the villain's words and go to other family members? Is this still the Boss Tang who used to be so righteous? If nothing else, does it make sense to take hostages when dealing with such a 100% rip-off villain? It is tolerable to continue to work for the villain calmly after half of the hostages were torn apart. Although the ending of the film must be a happy victory for justice over evil, the plot outline of "talking about conditions and cooperation with terrorists" is a bit too mysterious, and the villain is rendered as the biggest boss of the series, but he finds Boss Tang, a character who is destined to rebel. It's too much to do things for them.
Another unacceptable plot is the whitewashing of the Xiao brothers. For the reasons mentioned above, Guoda Statham's superiority is the inevitable result of business needs, but in the play he is the direct murderer of Giselle and Han. Ah, is it really alright to let him join Lumberjack with just such a smile? Who is Mr. Tang? The 8 films clearly told us, you dare to touch my family with one finger and I will cut your whole family's ruthless character, but the bloody feud of killing the family is enough to save a son? Is it because Guo Da's bald head is so shiny that he has a feeling of sympathy? According to this, Theron properly joined the protagonist group in the lower part of the film. After all, she only killed Boss Tang's family, but Guo Da killed both of them.
And some other plots in the play also make me want to complain. For example, Theron and Dominic have many lengthy discussions about life, which is meaningless except to tell us that Queen Theron's appearance is impeccable. The existing CGI screen fights with each other's plot, it is simply a fight between gods, and the look and feel is very general.
In terms of actors, Vin Diesel is as stable as ever, and his expression is skillfully switched from the two options of the smile of confusion and the deep bitterness of bitterness. Dwayne Johnson continued to play the Hulk, punching the cow to death. In order to whitewash the character, Jason Statham has become a thoroughly funny character to draw the audience in. I have to say that it is a bit out of touch with the boss image of the previous movie. Queen Theron is the biggest highlight of the film, her aura is extremely strong, and the femme fatale is full of danger. The military uniforms in the eye-catching scene are very heroic and valiant. From the hairstyle to the clothes, I think of The Theron in MGS3. Boss, but her name is cipher, which is ironic (no one understands this...).
Summary: Fast Furious 8 has maintained the excellent visual experience of the series. The performances of the old and new characters are great, but I am not satisfied with too many big scenes and too few racing scenes. It’s okay to have a small pattern, but forcibly whitewashing the villain makes me a fan of the Giselle couple unacceptable. The domestic version is a bit shameless to force 3D, this film has no 3D scenes at all. 6.5/10, I recommend audiences who like Hollywood special effects movies to watch the IMAX version and forget about its plot for an hour.
ps don't have to wait if there are no easter eggs.
ps2. Russian nuclear bombs are easier to find in Hollywood movies than the little yellow books hidden by junior high school boys. The good guys are hitting the Russians, the bad guys are hitting the Russians, and the two or five boys are still hitting the Russians. All the Russians died, and the Russians are so pitiful.
ps3. In the film, Brian Mia and his wife are set to go into hiding. Although Paul is no longer there, it is still very heartwarming that the film gives his character a happy ending. At the end, the small menu about Brian makes people smile.
ps4. In the film, the submarine is faster than the supercar, and the supercar is faster than the missile, so the emotional submarine fired a missile that was slower than itself?
