That's right, this is an adventure movie with a female protagonist, further saying that she is the French version of "Raiders of the Lost Ark", "The Adventures of Tintin", "Tomb Raider", and even a little bit more "Hellboy". As an important town of European comics, French comics have always been known for their diversity and magnificent imagination, and in turn these comic resources also provide a steady stream of inspiration for the commercialization of French films. , "Lucky Star Luke" and even "Little Naughty Nikolai", which has recently been touted by domestic fans, all come from the world of comics. When it comes to the original comics of this film, it comes from the work "Detective Adele" by Jacques Tati, a French national treasure comic master. This work, which has been serialized since 1976, has influenced several generations of French people. Among them The adventure journey full of fantasy and magic, the beautiful but powerful and intelligent protagonist of Yujie, and all kinds of eccentric villains have become the golden memories of comic fans growing up.
How can such a work that carries a lot of popularity and is full of commercial elements, how can it escape the eyes of Luc Besson? As early as 2000, he discussed the adaptation with the author Jacques Tati, but the latter believes that Besson's cooperation agreement had too many overlord clauses that he couldn't accept it, and the film was put on hold for the time being. Besson, who was soft and hard, did not give up on this. This marathon negotiation finally ended in 2006. The two sides reached an agreement to start a comic adaptation film, but Jacques himself did not actually get involved in the script writing. Besson himself extracted the original comics. The first volume "Adela and the Beast", the third volume "The Mummy's Parade" and the fourth volume "Mad Scientist" as the main clues of the film, Jacques also praised Besson's version of the screenplay.
But for fans outside of France, the problem arises. At the beginning of the film, a large number of voiceovers, single character introductions and event flashbacks are used as the beginning to lead the audience into Adela's world. However, this too messy and trivial viewing experience may become the fatal point of the film. , Due to the looseness of the plot itself and the weak coherence, many chapters and paragraphs of the film itself can be taken out for viewing separately. In addition, most French genre films have always controlled the rhythm and the climax setting is not very clever, the overall look and feel is With a big discount, some sense of humor that only the French people like to see obviously cannot win the resonance of moviegoers in a wider range. For another very interesting aspect, the special effects and action scenes are also lackluster. The film itself encountered a financial crisis at an untimely time. The production fee of 30 million euros is indeed not a small amount, but it is still a little shabby compared to its American counterparts on the other side of the ocean, and this amount of money can almost be concluded. They are mainly placed on the pterosaurs and mummies in the film, although their performance is not enough to make people applaud. In terms of action, apart from our royal sister Adela's several blind gestures like fisting and embroidering her legs, I actually don't see too much novelty and cool. The orientation of the whole movie is basically a comedy trick, but this is indeed the original comic. one of the main tones. Of course, the overall visual style of the film and the presentation of the pictures are still bright. The bustling and hustle and bustle of Paris at the beginning of the 20th century, the numerous structures in the pyramids, the beautiful and delicious European scenery, and the gorgeous and exquisite costumes of the characters are all the fun of watching the film. And our French sister Adela's adventure has just begun, and at the end of the film his old rival reappears, and when you see the ship he boarded, you can't help but smile and look forward to the story development of. Yes, Luc Besson originally planned to create a "Raiders of the Lost Ark" belonging to France, which is also the beginning of the trilogy. In the fantasy stories of France, follow the royal sister to start the adventure again and again, although the movie sometimes makes people tasteless and suspicious.

    It's funny and casual, but it's a pity that the magical meaning has become a funny foil

    Fantasy-style dramas are very appealing to me, and they are full of jokes. Lu Besson also made fun of the French police. At the end of the personal suspense, did Adela, who boarded the Titanic, embark on another adventure or die?
