Regardless of whether the plot can stand up to scrutiny, or whether it is lacking in connotation, individuals still have a natural good impression of such brainless films. For example, this "Hansel and Gretel: The Witch Hunter", or the previous "Van Helsing", "Attack from Heaven", "Pretty Girl Strike Force", etc., are all game movies with dark temperament and punk style. . One of the reasons why I like these movies is that they are super cool and unburdened, which is very suitable for the head after a tiring day; and the other is probably the trace of video games that men have always left in their hearts, even though they have not played games for many years.

However, although the types are similar, there is still a difference in quality. Compared with the ingenious conception in "Pretty Girl Strike Force" and the main characters of the various literary works in "Attack from Heaven", "Hansel and Gretel: The Witch Hunter" obviously lacks sufficient plot and special effects. Highlights. Take "Attack from Heaven" as an example, its artistic design that combines Victorian style and steampunk left a very deep impression on me, and if I recall the film many years later, it is basically impossible to have Something fresh in my memory.

In recent years, the adaptation of fairy tales has become a new trend in European and American movies, and it is generally going in the direction of darkness and adulthood. In the absence of good screenwriters and good scripts, this phenomenon is quite normal and inevitable. This is associated with Chinese movies. Although our country does not have a fairy tale tradition, there are many fables (including fairy tales) that are extremely imaginative and interesting, and have a very large space for adaptation. Rather than hacking out some inconsistent bad films, it is better to borrow some wisdom from the ancients. At least in those stories, the predecessors have already set up a ready-made framework for us, and it depends on whether we use it or not.
