blue screen movie

It is another film born in troubled times. The Wachowski brothers' fame and eye-popping investment did not bring the expected return to the film. Under the suppression of the new generation of comic heroes "Iron Man", the same The comic book adaptation was a fiasco at the box office. In fact, the movie is not so ugly, at least it is better than those boring hero movies that save the world, but it has a strong family flavor. Such a movie should not be in the summer season, but it may be good to put it in the family file of Christmas.
This type of film is called "blue screen film" by the industry, and in my opinion, it is more like a live-action cartoon. Because except the actors are real people, other scene props and the like are all a bunch of 1s and 0s. The bizarre colors and dazzling speed created by the light and shadow magic bring the audience a strong visual impact and a sense of refreshment. Coupled with a warm and funny family, a story full of justice, well, this is a typical Hollywood production. But compared with the Wachowski brothers, this film is a little naive, that is the father of the Matrix. There are a lot of children in the film. Thinking of the weirdness at the last kiss, I think if the United States also celebrates Children's Day, this would be a good holiday film.
The use of a large number of Asian actors is also the selling point of the film, after all, it is an original Japanese manga. But using Yu Nan and Rain to play Japanese still feels weird.
