At first, when I learned that steelmaking was going to be real, I wasn't really optimistic. Generally, the live-action is not very embarrassing, or the costume design of the characters in the scene is suffocating, and the plot is generally restored.
But steel smelting modified the plot, and this was his failure.
I don't think anyone else can cover all aspects of this work in a 130-minute movie, let alone the complex and grand theme and values of steelmaking itself. There are many good movies that tell good stories, but there are never too many core characters to promote the development of the story, and there are not too many characters that need to be portrayed with different story lines. In fact, to be honest, the acting skills of the actors and some visual technical effects are already amazing to me, and it is really difficult for narrative screenwriters to do their best. Of course, some of the light performances are too bright. I think the director really doesn't understand the core thing behind this work.
The reason why he was scolded so badly was because the original work was too supernatural. The original work has more than 60 episodes without any delay, but it has also been filmed for more than 60 episodes, and each episode is more than 20 minutes. How to say it all in 130 minutes?
In fact, it can really be divided into multiple parts to shoot, carefully describe him and describe him carefully. Of course, the aesthetics of different audiences are different, so the realization of this work itself is very risky.
At the end of the day, I'm going to come up with the reason for only giving two points. A sigh is not particularly embarrassing, and it is an animation effect! In this way, a lot of necessary things have been deleted without any scruples. Apart from making people feel the doctor's perversion, the true love of brothers, and the conflict between right and wrong, what else can there be? There are too few depictions of the gate of truth, and too few depictions of complex things like artificial humans. As an envy, Enwei died too hastily! The creator of the android just mentioned a word, but I, who have been waiting for the President, have been waiting for a cannon fodder.
After watching the whole process, I just feel that this work has turned into a sci-fi movie, and the religious and philosophical meaning of steelmaking and the thinking about human nature and life suddenly disappeared.
If such a masterpiece does not have a very good understanding of itself, if it were me, I would choose not to shoot.
