The Changing Heart of "Transformers"

(The following content is not a film review, this is not a joke) The

movie "Transformers" is not in danger of "spoiler" because its focus is not on the plot. Although the plot is quite troublesome, the three main lines advance in parallel, a dark line follows, and finally the three main lines are connected. Taoism once said: One Qi transforms three Qings. Proving that the sages of our country had predicted long ago, "Transformers" will be released in 2007. And it is predicted that if you watch it in a movie theater: the first commercial is FAW Jiefang.

I don’t know what other people watch "Transformers" for? I am nostalgic for NB shiningly. For example, the group of people who grew up watching Stephen Chow's movies, some of them successfully entered the 6 sets of CCTV, so every summer, everyone will watch "Journey to the West". When I see it, I can proudly announce: Look! It was done by one's own people! For another example, an earthquake or flood has killed all of today's TV directors, and can only temporarily select people from the younger generation. As a result, there will no longer be inferior martial arts and braid dramas on TV, and it may be replaced by "Sui and Tang Dynasty Performing Arts" and "Said Yue". When I saw it, I can proudly associate it with a few guys who listened to the radio and talked about storytelling like me at the time.

"Transformers" is a truth. When I first watched it, I was still in elementary and junior high school. I liked it very much at the time, but I was so poor that I couldn't afford a Hasbro toy robot. So, I drew Optimus Prime's head in the blank spaces of the workbook and book pages. The teacher certainly doesn't like this, so toys must be confiscated and the act of drawing "big heads" (teacher words) on the books must be criticized. I felt desperate at the time, because you couldn't explain the truth clearly to someone who called Transformers a "big head". So, you can only swear: when I grow up, buy a room of Transformers. For this day, I waited for more than 20 years. Endure the model dramas they have put on the screen for more than 20 years, "Five Golden Flowers", educated youth dramas, and Qing palace dramas. Now that "Transformers" has become a movie, I can finally burst out: That the fuck is not a big head! Understand?

When my generation becomes the mainstream of society, even the foreign films, stickers, and cigarette cases that I played in childhood will become the mainstream culture of society. "Transformers" is a concrete manifestation. We liked it back then. Now that we have the money to buy DVDs in the cinema, you can shoot it for us. Tomorrow we will miss breakdancing again, so all the first-line stars will jump up and show us. No other shows are allowed on the Spring Festival Gala. This is nostalgia, and this is NB Shining.

Therefore, "Transformers" has no film reviews to write. It was that person, even if he was paralyzed from the neck down, he would crawl to see with his teeth. It's not that person, he won't waste a penny on buying a ticket if you write a megabit. I am not surprised by the current rave reviews. If I shoot the live-action version of "Saint Seiya", I will also applaud. What did I like when I was young, my biggest dream is nothing more than seeing each other again, and when I see you again, I ask for something better than that day. Modern technology guarantees the possibility of this kind of reproduction. Only the almost unconscious voice in the theater praises: Brother Optimus Prime, you are still so handsome. . . . . . In fact, everyone knows that he should be Uncle Optimus Prime now.

I only gave the film four stars, one of which is because it is called "Transformers". At this point, there is still a gap between movies and TV. TV cartoons can give characters ample space for display. Close your eyes and think about it. Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Megatron, Sonic, and Starscream are all so lifelike. Everyone has his own personality and temper. It's nothing more than outside the heart. Covered with a layer of machine skin. But the movie version of "Transformers" didn't have so much time to show, and the main experience was focused on dazzling special effects. Except for Optimus Prime and Bumblebee, Starscream is probably the only one that impresses people, because he is an F22---the US Department of Defense estimates that "Transformers" is a National Day parade.

From beginning to end, except for Hyun is Hyun. Transformation, attack, and fighting, from underground to the sky, except that there is no display in the water, the "Transformers" model class dazzled for at least one and a half hours in the two-hour movie. This is much more exciting than on TV, but I can't find the kindness that I felt when I saw Optimus Prime. Is it a problem with the car? If Optimus Prime is the liberation kcal, would it be better for the Hornet to be Xiali? Moreover, humans occupy too much of it. I like Autobots, but I don’t have much interest in humans. Wouldn’t it be better if the humans were to remove the horse part and replace it with Cybert’s prequel, or even Megatron’s Arctic Encounter?

problems that have not been solved in traditional cartoons have not been solved well in the movie version. First of all, the proportions of Transformers are still daunting. After Optimus Prime was transformed, it was two stories high, but moving to the next lens, when he picked up the glasses on the ground, if the proportions are true, then the lens of the glasses should be as big as the face plate. As a result, people can run past Transformers. Then there is the battle scene. The most annoying animation is the shooting scene. Autobots and Decepticons squirt water guns, but 99% are empty guns, as if they don’t have an aiming system at all. This problem was corrected in the movie, and the strikes are quite accurate, but the new problem is that the recoil disappears. Human attacks are like mosquito bites. The attacks between Transformers are mainly fleshy, and Optimus Prime actually used a hand knife. . . . . .

Finally, the mystery of deformation, the movie version complicates it. After reading it, it gives people a feeling, it seems that Transformers are some kind of energy group, and then they invade the inside of the machine and become robots. This kind of energy will not operate normally due to low temperature, and will become unstable at high temperature. Moreover, it is also divided into justice and evil, because in the experiment of the film, the NOKIA mobile phone received the energy of the Rubik's Cube and became a Decepticon instead of an Autobot. In this way, if the prequel is filmed in the future, what should Optimus Prime and Megatron look like on Cybertron? Optimus Prime didn't seem to know what a heavy truck was at the time, right?

Although there is no character, the transformation process is too complicated and detailed, and there are too many hot scenes, I am already satisfied. If I can give the Transformers hearts and humanity in the next episode, then I will give five points without hesitation. Finally, on behalf of myself, I express a very strong personal wish: I really want to see Sonic!

    It is still the best in the series so far, with amazing visual effects and sufficiently entertaining stories. The rhythm is also well controlled. Industrial Light & Magic once again demonstrated its incredible dream-fulfilling properties. 8/10

    The picture is nice, but a bit messy. The favorite of car lovers
