There are only two reasons to watch an unintelligible fantasy film: Heath Ledger's posthumous work, Johnny Depp, Jude Law, and Colin Feller are in danger. If it can be called an accident, seeing Andrew Garfield is barely a surprise, although I don't like his appearance in "Social Networks". For a fantasy film, it is a bit difficult to ask for its plot to be logical, but my requirements are not high, just two words: reliable. The plot can be absurd and bizarre, but the thoughts and actions of the characters that run through the plot must stand in reality, especially the human nature that supports their full character, and cannot escape from a "true" word. The first half of the film is still reliable, but the plot is procrastinated and boring. The most uncomfortable part is that of Colin Feller's personality change. The actor we saw in the first three paragraphs was Heath Ledger who was eager to turn the tide. It looks like a gentleman of Johnny Depp, like Jude Law in a panic, and the protagonist's image of a gentleman is unshakable. But when Colin Feller was here, there was no sign of a dramatic change in temperament (even though there was a foreshadowing but obviously not enough), we saw that the gentleman and philanthropist who were polite and enthusiastic about public welfare a second before turned into a face. A ferocious beast. Yes, sudden changes and discoveries are common creative techniques in drama. There are no shortage of successful cases in film history. Take the recent "Black Swan" as an example, it is enough to pave the way for it, deliberately misleading, and emotionally brewing before changing. At the end of the plot, the trembling heart beats, although it is a sudden turn, it gives a logical sense of the destruction of the white swan and the nirvana of the black swan. Finally, Lily Cole’s face is really scary, like the distorted onion face and the plump lady with garlic cloves in medieval oil paintings. It also looks like an SD doll, not like a real person anyway. I suggest you go back to your dreamy runway. Do you think that the big screen can be mixed by twisting the waist and swinging the hips? ——2011.1.29
