"Transformers 1-4" plot review
-------------------------------------
Welcome to "Transformers 5", also known as "It has nothing to do with King Kong", "Autobots", "Old Iron, Heartbroken", "Little Yellow Cars vs. Little Blue Cars", "TFBOYS Save the World", and "Unlimited Numbers Today" "Looking at the car rain again" "I will accompany you to see the Autobots, falling on this earth" "How to insert a movie in the commercial" "The adrenaline hasn't exploded yet, the bladder explodes first" "This movie needs 9 screenwriters ? "Liar, I waited for 2 hours and I didn't see him become King Kong", "Western World Special: Dr. Ford got tired of receptionists and made an Autobot to play with", and "What the hell did the earth do wrong?" , Why do they always come to the earth and want to fight out, okay? 》
In the first part, Megatron came to Earth thousands of years ago.
The second part overturned the previous setting and changed it to Transformers having contact with humans 17,000 years ago.
The fourth part is even more exaggerated. Transformers came to the earth 65 million years ago and caused the extinction of the dinosaurs.
In the fifth part, Transformers is also closely related to King Arthur and the Nazis.
The Germans were beaten by Wonder Woman in World War I, Captain America in World War II, and now they are being beaten by Transformers. I really feel wronged.
I have to say that Michael Bay turned his face faster than a book.
The story begins in 484 AD. There was a war during the King Arthur period, but their average hair length was greatly increased compared with last month's "King Arthur: Battle of the Beasts".
Transformer, the TF boy, reached out to the magician Merlin and provided Merlin with a fairy stick.
And the three-headed dragon.
But Merlin still gave the Transformers a bad review: "What about the three-headed dragon? Why is there only one?"
In fact, the three-headed "dragon" is the biggest "dragon" set, and its features are in the trailer.
As time enters the 21st century, TF Boy has been classified as an illegal alien. MI6 (six doors) and TRF (doujinfan, also translated as "Transformers Response Force") will control them.
One day, TF Boy's fan "Clover" went to the gym to see the autobot's body. Here, they met the little girl Isabel.
Although Isabella has forgotten her parents, she has developed very well, and her small partner politely praised her as "a big heart".
It is worth mentioning that Isabella has a robot that looks like R2D2 and is actually called "Little Smart". No wonder everyone says that girls like to play with electric toys.
The Autobot passed the relic to Eagle before he died. It was a mooncake on the surface, but it was actually a lighted amulet.
Iger won the final victory with the Autobots in the last episode, and now works in the car junkyard. He has an assistant Jimmy who was tricked into becoming a "senior vice president" by fake news.
Since Optimus Prime went to Cybertron to find the creator at the end of the previous episode, there are now very few Autobots left. The strongest combat power may be the dinosaur King Kong "Gunlock", but it only knows about eating and not knowing the officer all day long. It is also a big "dragon" set.
Eagle also raised some robots that appeared to be dinosaur King Kong cubs, but were actually lighters. It would be a shame not to implant an advertisement for a backgammon lighter.
At the same time, the planet Cybertron is about to invade the earth because people have found aliens in West Africa, Jordan, and northern China. It was not found in southern China because the aliens were eaten by the Cantonese as soon as they landed on the ground.
Even more frightening is that Megatron, who had died three times, made a comeback again, demanding that humans surrender the Decepticon Mohawk, Hacker, Nitrogen Zeus, Berserker, and Raid. Humans say they refuse to hand over hackers. After all, hackers are of great commercial value, and there are a lot of them on a certain treasure.
(Reminder: Do not search for "hacker" in a treasure)
Megatron led the other Decepticons to search for mooncakes, and Igel was not to be outdone, and led the small yellow car, the small red car, the small green car, and the small black car to counterattack.
Jimmy took the opportunity to express his admiration to Eagle, who deserves to be the "Vice President of Engagement" hired by Eagle. They repelled the Decepticons through the power of love. Next, on the surface it was C-3PO, but in fact the robot named "Elder" led Eagle to England.
The group saw Folger, and the elders called him "Master", so it is not surprising that he has a Lamborghini.
Folger is a living Yellow Pages, whose skill is to recite names fluently, and brought Iger to stand-up comedy and tongue twisters when they first met. He has many identities, such as Hannibal, Thor's father, and Dr. Ford of Westworld. It seems that he is tired of being a receptionist and wants to make a few Autobots to play with.
In this film, he did not forget to black out his partner, saying that Arnold is his third cousin, who loves to drink swill the most, and then committed suicide.
From the name, Folger may be Fu Yanjie's brother, or even Falcon's brother. He and Falcon also yearn for riding a horse and sharing the prosperity of the world, and Vivian is a suitable candidate.
She was a fan of Captain America during World War II. Later, she married Eagle and gave birth to Star Lord. In Transformers 5, she fell in love with "Igor" whose name is similar to "Igor".
According to this law, we can boldly speculate that the next time she will fall in love with Tengger.
Because the elders played the piano and sang too loudly, it was quite annoying to the people, and attracted attacks from six doors and fanfans. The elder and Folger ran away in a small red car, which was quite fast. In fact, Folger's hair was very long when he became Thor's father a few years ago. In the past few years, drag racing has caused serious hair loss.
Eagle and Vivian ran away in a little yellow car. The little yellow car ran and turned into a little yellow man, making the enemies so cute.
Then they finally found Merlin's fairy stick and decided to sing a song to express their mood at the moment.
Before the words were over, Optimus Prime followed one after another, fought against Eagle, and drew his sword against Bumblebee. He drew out his big sword to insert him, and did not forget to curse: "You low bee!"
Bumblebee responded to this: "Old Iron, I'm heartbroken!"
It turned out that before Optimus Prime was played SM by Quinta Sha, his eyes turned purple and became Azi.
Eagle was very sad and roared: "Azi, I am Qiao Feng!"
Bumblebee also said: "Girl Azi, I am Duan Yu, don't you remember? Our fathers are both Martha, oh no, they are all Duan Zhengchun!"
(Strictly speaking, Duan Zhengchun is only Duan Yu's adoptive father, but Martha is also just Superman's adoptive mother)
Seeing that his mother is called Martha, Optimus Prime and Bumblebee turn their enemies into friends, and join Eagle to attack the Decepticons. Optimus Prime demonstrated his superb vegetable cutting skills, splitting six Decepticons with a single knife.
In an instant, it was so dark, and you couldn't see who was hitting whom, so just hit it casually.
Fortunately, the Xiaolingtong rescued the field in time, and the upgrade to the smart phone Note7 exploded the firepower point and helped everyone to win. On the way, Iger and Vivian descended from the sky, thinking that the protagonist would not die anyway, it would be better to play bungee jumping, and then rotated in the air for 28 weeks and landed perfectly.
At the end of the story, seeing world peace, they will represent the national gymnastics team in the next Olympic Games.
-----Film Critic-----
The structure of the film is similar to that of Part 1, using a multi-line narrative approach. In space, multiple stories from different places such as Eagle, Folger, Vivienne, the US Army, Optimus Prime, Megatron, etc. proceed at the same time, and finally come together.
In terms of time, it also spanned the three periods of King Arthur, Nazis, and modern times.
The upcoming "Dunkirk" also adopts a similar structure and will tell the story of three periods of time and three spaces.
But "Transformers 5" failed to become a classic masterpiece, not only failed to reach the height of the first one, but even the worst in the series.
In fact, there are 9 screenwriters in the film, and the audience can also feel the efforts of the screenwriters. They want to enrich the film's connotation, but unfortunately the producer's ambition is too great, which causes the plot to fall apart. The 9 screenwriters wanted everything, but they didn't get anything. In the end, they just told a very messy story that the audience would forget after reading it, not to mention the connotation and depth.
Coupled with the 2.5-hour movie, there are nearly 2 hours of foreshadowing. Not only the audience who pursues the plot must be disappointed, but the audience who does not ask for the plot but just wants to "cool up" will not be happy.
In terms of visual effects, "Transformers 5" may be the most shocking one in the series, and the shooting technology is also the most advanced. This is the first time in film history that IMAX 3D dual-camera real shooting has been adopted.
(However, a careful audience can notice the changes in the film frame during the viewing process, which will more or less reduce the viewing experience.)
As far as entertainment is concerned, the film is far from 3 or 4 exciting, and it is not even as good as the "Fast and Furious 8" released some time ago. On the one hand, it was because of the too long foreshadowing, and on the other hand, the fighting was not fierce enough.
The "Fast and Furious" series, which is also related to "cars", become more and more like "Transformers". In addition to being incapable of being deformed, the Autobots can do what the speeding family can do. "Transformers 5" uses a submarine, and "Fast and Furious 8" also uses a submarine... On the contrary, "Transformers" is becoming less and less innovative.
Of course, "Transformers 5" is by no means useless. After all, visual effects are part of the movie. It is even said that visual effects are one of the biggest differences between movies and novels. It visualizes the script and presents it to the audience in three dimensions. This is a pleasure that cannot be experienced when reading a novel.
Personally, in the category of science fiction and action movies, if the script is good enough, it can make up for the lack of visual effects; similarly, if the visual effects are good enough, it can make up for the lack of plot.
For example, science fiction films such as "Doctor Strange" and "Pacific Rim", and action films such as "Assault" and "Boxing Fighter" are all works with good reputation but mediocre plots.
"Transformers 5" is still the most ambitious one in the series, and may be the most ambitious of all the movies in 2017. Michael Bay has such an achievement. If you change the director to shoot, it will not necessarily make it better if you spend more than 100 million dollars.
The "Transformers" series is always at the forefront of the times, giving people a deep shock. "Transformers 5" will once again become a rising star in the popcorn movie. In a few years, there will be no more stunning visual effects. Only Michael Bay can surpass himself.
Michael Bay has repeatedly stated that he will not shoot "Transformers", and has repeatedly repented. Recently, he once again claimed not to shoot "Transformers 6". If this is true, perhaps we will miss these five "Transformers" directed by Michael Bay in the future.
"Transformers 5" marks the end of an era. Without the "Transformers" live-action movie directed by Michael Bay, what will happen?
Some time ago, according to Michael Bay’s introduction, the screenwriter team responsible for the "Transformers Universe" has created 14 "Transformers" movie synopses. In the future, there will be not only "Transformers 6" and "Transformers 7", there will also be derivative movies of "Transformers Universe".
The first part of the spin-off film "Bumblebee" independent film has been confirmed to be directed by Travis Knight, the son of the founder of Nike, who has directed "Legend of Magic Strings."
"Bumblebee" will start shooting in August this year, and "Transformers 6" is also scheduled to be released in 2019.
My personal opinion is that since the fans who watch "Transformers" just ask for "coolness", it's not a good idea to arrange Transformers from start to finish in the next episode. As for the plot, just plug it in.
