Because I wasn't that busy today, I went to watch "Cat". Because I only saw the original British musical a few months ago, I liked it very much and it made me very unforgettable. But I have also heard a lot of bad reviews about this movie, so I also want to see how it differs from the musical, and to see how bad this legendary "2019 Hollywood Finale" can be.
As a result, it is still quite "breakdown imagination"...:
In the first minute or two of the soundtrack and songs, there is still a little trace of the original version of the musical, but then everything goes to the street scenes of London, and the film starts to fall apart. And crashed from start to finish.
The magic points of the film are:
(1) When the camera is close-up of the singing and dancing cats, the London street scene behind is very similar to the background picture of "European and American style studio photography" in my country in the last century, and it is switched one by one, and a fake one. I passed one; and when it was cut into long-range and panoramic views, those cats seemed to be on P, with "serious PS marks", how to see how it violated and how to make a play.
Not knowing where the $95 million cost was spent, the set looked incredibly cheap. The cat hair CG is also, especially the beard, every cat's beard is temporarily pasted with 502, accept incompetence.
(2). The big coffees covered in CG cat hair: James Corden, Ian McLean, Rebel Wilson, "Big Braised Pork" Jason Derulo and Judy Dan Odd, it's like whoever's style is more thunderous and more entertaining. Every time I appear in a scene, I play a moment; the first appearance of the whole film is dedicated to the fat cat played by Rebel Wilson, and then It was "Big Braised Pork". When the film was about half an hour into the film, I was already out in the movie and knew that I could no longer be in the movie.
(3) I really don’t understand a good cat who wears fur, overalls and overalls, and sneakers and sneakers, and can take it off and on again, and wear it off again; the most powerful is Rebel Wei Ersen, he was able to peel off layer after layer of his cat skin. Undoubtedly the most terrifying actor in the whole film. In the original musical, only the actor who sang "Memory" and the oldest elder cat had clothes, and they were only ragged, very shabby. In this movie, the fur on the cat is more luxurious than one. pieces.
(4) The legendary "most cult scene": humanoid cockroach - it's really cult! In particular, I gave a close-up of the cockroach actor one second, and the next second the fat cat ate these "you can see that they are really living things and they are really played by people" cockroaches. Lens, this film should be rated as "adults only" level, not PG level, children are really a shadow of a lifetime! (And the humanoid cockroach also appeared in two whole songs)
(5) A group of cats sing, dance, and dance, just like a magic trick, they conjure up a bunch of scenes and stages, and then run up to them to continue singing and dancing, and then disappear with the scenes that have just been conjured up. I:? ? ? ? Is this a musical or a fantasy movie?
(6) There are a lot of classic music from the original musical in the whole film, but because the picture is too dramatic, those classic music can't save the scene, not even the most classic "Memory" - singing the most In the emotional part, I saw that Jennifer Hudson's snot was almost flowing into her mouth - including the ending of "Memory". Goosebumps didn't start until I sang at the climax, and I suddenly lost interest. I want to say: ballball, wipe your nose...
(7) The last aria seems to justify the name of the cat group, but the funny thing is that the film itself has caused smear and disapproval of the cat group. All the movies related to dogs will make people want to own a dog, but this movie makes people completely forget the cuteness of cats.
(8) Compared with Disney, the last film with such a dense singing and dancing component was probably "Mary Poppins" in 2018, but after watching that film, I just found it pleasing to the eye, and felt that every frame was simply a happy wallpaper. Emily Blunt is really good in the film! But for this one, I don't want to take screenshots of a single frame. After half an hour of full play, I just want to see if there will be "a thunder in a thunder and a thunder in a thunder". And while watching the movie, my scalp kept going numb.
(9) Generally, movie scenes are more beautiful and beautiful than the stage scenes of dramas, but this movie not only loses the stage sense of a musical, but also loses the movie sense that the movie itself should have. Some scenes are even really "PPT" ". Annual Confusion Award. I now understand why the IMDB rating is lower than that of "Little Times", and Xiao Si will at least make the picture beautiful.
Then, Taylor Swift played for not only three minutes, but five or six minutes. If Taylor's fans and friends are watching resources, please pull it directly to the place about 1 hour and 10 minutes. Maybe because the cat's appearance will undoubtedly expose the proportions of the actor's body, and Taylor's figure is not bad, so it looks okay.
The white cat heroine Francesca Hayward, the principal of the British Royal Ballet, has the most features in the whole film, and is also the one that is relatively incompatible. Probably Universal intends to match her, and she even sings "Memory". "Beautiful Ghosts" is her singing.
Finally, one and a half stars. One star for the music in the original musical quoted.
Believe in evil.
