Today, let's talk about the movie "Leadership Level".
The title of the film is Boss Level (2020).
"Leadership" is an action movie that has recently debuted. It's easy to overlook the title just by looking at the title, and mistake it for another action movie with nothing new.
But what I want to say is that this is definitely an excellent action movie that is easily overlooked. Except for the unlucky translation, almost every plot can touch the G-spot of gamers and action movie fans.
The title of the film "Boss Level" was translated into "Leadership Level", which is really speechless. The translator probably didn't watch the film, and it was purely imaginative translation, and he did not do it with integrity.
"Leadership" tells an endlessly repeating story, a bit like a hardcore ACT game, where players must clear the level with one life, and any small mistakes will kill and start all over again.
Therefore, it would be better to translate this film into "Top Player". Just like "Number One Player" is a love letter dedicated to the game animation house, "Leadership" can also be regarded as a love letter dedicated to ACT hardcore players. .
The film is starring the familiar crossbones Frank Grillo, and the supporting roles are Mel Gibson, Michelle Yeoh, Naomi Watts, Annabella Wallis and many other familiar actors. The director is Joe Carnahan, who directed "Wolf Warriors" and "Dragon Commandos." Looking at the lineup, it can be said that it is full of stars.
And this is also an action movie in which Frank Grillo has become a positive character and starring. In the past, he always played the villain and was beaten, but now he finally became a good person while being beaten.
Crossbones teases American buttocks
Here, Frank Grillo plays Roy Roy, a retired Delta Special Forces veteran who is caught in an endless loop of time and needs to find a way to break the cycle of death.
After more than 200 times of life and death, Frank Grillo has thus become a super hardcore player who has cleared the level with one life.
"Leadership" is like "Ready Player One", gamers need to find the optimal solution to the problem within the existing rules. Many times, the key to solving the problem is hidden in the seemingly impossible place. Following the road paved by the level designer cannot solve the problem, and there are often surprises in reverse thinking.
Zhihu has something like "If one day you find yourself trapped on the same day forever, what will you do?" "Give you a chance to live forever, but live on the same day in a loop, would you like it?" If you could live and die on the same day, would you like it?" question.
"Leadership Level" materialized this problem, and realized a limited time reversal through a device called the spindle. Joey also incarnates Osiris, the Egyptian god of the underworld, and can control the world through his own efforts.
You don't have to worry about the performance of "Leadership Level" at all. In "Dragon Special Strike Team", the director could arrange for tanks to fly to the sky, and now hardcore players can be arranged to save the world indefinitely.
After watching it, you will only be hooked. You haven't seen such a hearty and refreshing action movie for a long time.
Just like the one-life clearance videos recorded by those great gods, no one can abuse the boss with one hand from the beginning. Player growth has a slow improvement curve, and all masters have been abused all the way from the rookie.
It's just that all kinds of hardships are not affordable for ordinary players. Many players quit halfway to become casual players and cloud players. This is the difference between great god-level players and ordinary players.
The film pays homage to many games and movies, and audiences familiar with game movies will feel very cordial.
When I saw the coarse-grained picture at the beginning, I thought the picture quality was too bad, but it was actually a tribute to the 8-bit computer.
From the selection interface of "Street Fighter" at the beginning of the film, to "Double Dragon", "Mortal Kombat", "GTA", "Beastmaster", "Contra", "Indiana Jones" and "Hurricane Rescue"...
Like "Ready Player One", there are too many interesting easter eggs in the film, which can be left to the audience to dig for themselves and enjoy the fun of watching the movie.
An excellent action movie that is easily overlooked,
The story behind the super hardcore gamer's one-of-a-kind clearance.
