Speaking of the uncle, this veteran movie star who has made a name for himself in "Schindler's List" early on, I don’t know why he suddenly chose to shoot the first episode of this series in 2008, and he will be 60 years old. When he moved to the field of action movies, even if it was out of control, in addition to the representative work of the trilogy that has been completed for 7 years, there are "Unidentified", "Wolf Wars", and "Dragon Secret Service" and so on, in recent years, this uncle is definitely one of Hollywood's most prolific action stars. To say that this is a transformation is not really that much. In his early years, he also dabbled in the field of action movies, but he was not as fierce as he is now, not so popular, and he did not leave a deep impression on people. However, in an interview with the Irish Independent last year, Uncle Nissen claimed that he would have at most two more years to take on action films, and that he would not take on similar scripts afterwards, and that he would most likely shift to the field of drama or comedy. In fact, his arrangement has a foreboding. In the past two years, he has guest-starred in the comedy films "Ace Announcer 2" and "One Million Ways to Die in the West", as well as the animated feature films "Robbery of the Nut Shop" and "Lego University". The voice of "Movie" has shifted to the comedy route is still more obvious. Uncle Nissen did not elaborate on the reasons for "re-transition", but it is not difficult to understand. Now this 62-year-old senior man, regardless of whether he can perform any more moves, the fundamental problem still involves his future acting career and the problem of being "fixed" by Hollywood.
Regarding the issue of being stereotyped by Hollywood, I have also written about it in other comments before. I believe many fans who understand this matter know how terrible this is. In fact, Uncle Nissen entered the field of action movies not by skill, but by wisdom. He does not have the skills of martial arts movie stars such as Shangge-Winton and Bruce Lee. After taking action movies, he is mostly a Jedi warrior (the male master in the Star Wars series), and the seductive Zeus God (Zhu). Zeus in God’s Fury), Master Ninja (Master Ninja in the Batman series) leading the Shadow Warrior Alliance, Commander of the Super Battleship (Captain of the Super Battleship), Captain of the Expedition Squad Breakthrough on the Ice Field (Explorer in the battle between man and wolf) Wait, even though the chrysanthemum is revealed in the millions of ways to die, he is still a terrifying gang boss. It can be said that for 6 or 7 years, Uncle Nissen Teacher OR, a veteran who "eats more salt than you eat", this positioning fits very well with his own temperament, otherwise he would not be so popular with his skill. But an actor being stereotyped by Hollywood means that the day to go home is not far away. There are countless examples of this. Jackie Chan and Jet Li quickly fell silent after the Hollywood fire, and Hollywood couldn't stand it again and again! The reason why Keanu Reeves flopped at the speed of light after the "Matrix" fire is nothing more than that he acts the same. On the other hand, Meryl Streep, the great movie goddess, is prosperous, that is, what he plays. Uncle Nissen has been delineated as a model type for 7 years, and he naturally wants to change.
So it is not difficult for us to see the plan of the uncle. In two years, he will enter the 8th year of the action circle, when he will be 64 years old. It took two years to transform the drama and complete the transformation again before the age of 65. After all, after the death of his beloved wife and other changes, Uncle Nissen's mentality is really hard to guess. So, stop complaining that the uncle can't move or the plot is not good, it's really one less one.
However, I still have to complain about it. The story is a continuation of the first two episodes in terms of plot. Although it is not a stubborn dog, it is absolutely nothing to do, although the most advanced technology in the trilogy is used in this episode. And the shooting method, the 3D IMAX has all been released, and all the box office plug-ins that can be used in an action film have been released, but after watching it, I can only say that the only reason this film can exist is the so-called "grand finale." The plot of the film seems a bit procrastinated, and when it comes to the rescue part of the core, it seems a bit blunt. It may be a problem with the editing of the film. In short, the whole story is not very smooth, and there are many loopholes, leaving people behind. Too many places to criticize. And the ending seems not so simple, the uncle is no longer as cold as the first two episodes, he is doing everything for his family, as if he has restrained. As for the actor Maggie Grace, who played his daughter, I feel completely crippled. It really doesn't matter. Once this series is over, it's hard to say whether there will be another chance to show up later.
Although it is not too exciting, and it is slightly inferior to the two previous works, it is still worth watching the finale of this series.
