The opening atmosphere is very good. It is a blockbuster movie. It is a helicopter and an armored vehicle. The commander and president of the US Army have everything (the scene in Air Force One is a bit rough). I estimate that most of the money for this movie It was all spent at the beginning, and the rest of it was almost done in the garbage dump, and the action scenes were rudimentary and messy.
Most of the protagonists in Carpenter’s films are set to shock four people as soon as they appear (such as the prisoner Napoleon in "Blood on the 13th Police Station" and the black fugitive in "The Ghost of Mars"), this Snike is also the same, which When passer-by saw him, he called out: "You are the one who died? I thought you died early." The director likes to use this kind of anti-government character as the protagonist, and he also likes to give the protagonist a few catchphrases that impress the audience. call me snake” (Napoleon in Police Station No. 13 said
when he saw someone : you got smoke?) I have to say, the protagonist is really weak, and Kurt Russell is like a special forces member among the soldiers. In the movie, he is a rookie, he is also an ace pilot, embroidered pillow, if the director's money is more, it will be more exciting.
The concept of the film is great. The shooting in the garbage dump creates a sense of apocalypse. The dark setting of the future is very NB. The president's silly look is very pleasing, worthy of anti-government. The protagonist secretly sneaks into the limited-time rescue setting. No wonder Hideo Kojima was inspired and later came up with the game "Metal Gear." Later Hollywood action movies are more or less inspired by this. I have to sincerely admire this. Piazza.
Because of lack of money, the action scenes are not good, the second half is dragged, and if the director can shoot a limited time rescue, it will be better to have a non-stop action movie like "Violence Street" or "Fire Fighting Heart" to let the audience. It’s a great thing to not be able to breathe and not go to the toilet. In short, the reason for many shortcomings is lack of money!
I don’t know why people say this movie is a classic action movie? Is it because this is an early memory in the video room? Memories are deceptive, and the first impression is that they are unreliable. Where is the action? Is it a contest in the trash ring?
Carpenter is a good director, but he is always short of money. I think again, this guy has such a good director talent, why didn't a big investor look for him to make a big production? Just like Sam Remy and Peter Jackson, why bother to stay stuck in the vicious circle of B-level movies for a lifetime.
The reasons are as follows: 1. Personal taste. Old boys like to make horror movies. Are there any big horror movies? There seems to be no
2. I have learned how to save money carefully after making movies for a lifetime, so regular customers, investors, can give as little as possible. Anyway, you can save and fight with small ones. Capitalists like it the most, hahaha
