Doomsday, of course, the most important thing is to be happy - "Zombieland 2"

Today, let's talk about the movie "Zombieland 2".

The film title Zombieland: Double Tap (2019), alias Zombieland: Serial Dead (Hong Kong) / Zombieland: Double Tap (Taiwan) / Zombieland 2 / Zombieland 2: Double Tap / Zombieland 2: Double Tap.

Ten years ago, a small-budget movie "Zombieland" was born, with an investment of only 23 million US dollars.

Inspired by "Shaun of Zombies", the film embarked on a fun-fighting zombie route. With its fearless optimism, it traveled the apocalypse with a relaxed and playful attitude, and it became an instant hit.

Ten years later, the creators reunited to launch the long-awaited sequel, Zombieland 2: Double Tap.

At that time, the film budget of "Zombie Paradise" was not large, and the actors who could be invited were all second-tier stars at that time. But who would have thought that the four protagonists who participated in "Zombieland" have all become Oscar-winning or nominated actors.

Woody Harrelson nominated for Best Supporting Actor for "The Messenger" and Best Supporting Actor for "Three Billboards";

Jesse Eisenberg was nominated for Best Actor for "The Social Network", and later became a Hollywood geek playing professional;

Emma Stone was nominated for Best Supporting Actress for "Birdman" and "The Favourite" and won Best Actress for "La La Land";

Abigail Breslin was nominated for Best Supporting Actress in 2007 for "Little Miss Sunshine".

From this point of view, "Zombieland" is really a gathering of stars.

Ten years later, the creators are getting together again. Ten years can change a lot. The appearance of the four protagonists has changed with the naked eye. The original little fresh meat has become the old bacon, the original little hot girl has become the aunt, the original uncle has become the uncle, the original sunshine little beauty Has become a sturdy little sister...

The years have left various marks on the actors, but they have also honed their acting skills. Watching them continue to fight zombies, the first story seems to be yesterday.

The title of the sequel "Double Tap" comes from Columbus' code of conduct in the first film of "Zombieland": to refill the zombies, and shoot twice to ensure that the zombies are killed. Here directly take the second criterion to complete the subtitle.

The sequel continued the style of the first one, and the whole film was completed in giggling. Compared with the first one, the second one has been upgraded in terms of the end of the game.

Doomsday zombies are an enduring topic. There are the series "The Walking Dead", which discusses the dark side of human nature, and the light-hearted and funny series "Zombie Nation", which is full of hip-hop and funny attributes.

Facts have proved that too serious and heavy topics can attract the attention of the audience at the beginning and receive countless praises. After a long time, the audience will feel aesthetic fatigue, and it is easy to form a high opening and a low walk. The light-hearted and funny style belongs to the side of the sword. As long as you can come up with new jokes and tricks every time, and keep paying tribute to the stalks, you can always get good reviews.

The Zombieland series belongs to the latter. This series specially arranges for four partners with different personalities to meet together, so that they have no option to become a group and go together.

Expand the traditional routine of happy friends gathering together to four people. In this wonderful combination, in addition to the common couple relationship, there are also father-daughter relationships, brotherhood, and new sparks can collide when they are combined.

In the end times, the most important thing is not to panic.

Instead of spending the rest of your life in fear and fear, it is better to treat the apocalypse as a large playground and live the rest of your life happily and happily.

And the wonderful people in "Zombieland" really did this, they really regarded the end of the world as a playground. As a nation on wheels, cars are the foundation of their lives, and "Zombieland" also has many characteristics of road movies.

With the help of cars, they can be easily transferred from one place to another, during which they can bring the audience a lot of interesting stories of killing zombies without repetition.

At the end of the day, the most important thing is of course to be happy!

The climax of the first is that the group of living treasures battle in the playground, and the second is to fight in Babylon.

An abandoned chimney in Babylon, occupied by a group of peace-loving hippies.

There is only one rule to enter Babylon, that is, no weapons are required. The hippies fantasize about building a utopia without weapons and use love to influence zombies, which makes the film more ironic.

Peace is not obtained by abolishing martial arts, but by fighting with fists. In the end, it was the weapon that was rejected by them that finally established the victory and saved everyone's life.

"Zombie Paradise" shows the audience with its unique fearless revolutionary optimism: as long as the heart is big, any place can become a paradise.

Mountains, plains, shops, and factories can all become paradises for fighting zombies. The second part even came up with a competition for all people to participate in. That's the "Zombie Kill of the Year" (ZKOTY) event.

Survivors in the apocalypse can participate in this activity, just use their wild imagination and use various tricks to destroy the zombies. In addition to the courage to deal with zombies, the competition also includes creativity and love for life.

Our protagonist team showed us a lot of the "Zombie Kills of the Year" from previous years, but they themselves didn't have a kill to be selected, which is a bit unreasonable. Since they are the protagonists of the film, the writers and directors will definitely arrange a good show to make them successfully selected for the "Best Zombie Killing of the Year".

In "Zombieland 2", the long shot in the Elvis fan shop is too interesting. The living and the zombies fight in a small space, but the zombies are still in the stage of transformation, and there are still some human intelligence left, which adds to the hunting and killing. Not a little difficult. This shot was also successfully selected for the best zombie kill of the year without any suspense.

The soundtrack of the film is also a highlight. Inheriting the fine tradition of the first film, many classic heavy metal come on stage one by one. Songs such as "For Whom the Bell Tolls" continuously push the atmosphere of the film to a climax, and some classic soundtracks are even more impressive. Same as the first one.

To pay tribute to Bill Murray, who likes to hunt ghosts and zombies, two Easter eggs are used at the end of the credits to express Bill Murray. The fun of Easter eggs is no less than that of the main film.

Fearless apocalypse infinite optimism,

Double hit, double happiness.
