had seen the huge publicity of "Zodiac" earlier, and had certain expectations for Jackie Chan's work that crossed the threshold of 100 films. But unfortunately, the promotion of the movie is like a kitchen knife, the movie is like a chopping block, and I went to the cinema to watch the movie with my expectations, which was like a vegetable under a knife. Looking at the entire film from a macro perspective, it is not only the vegetables that the kitchen knife cuts down, but the cutting board is actually cut.
The audience watched the whole film, what a nonsensical beginning and a puzzling ending.
The ultra-fast rhythm of the film does not allow the audience to pause for a moment to think about whether the plot is reasonable. The fast rhythm makes the plots of the various units seem to be tightly connected, but in fact many plots are confusing. And looking at the unit plot at the beginning, it is really hard to see why, completely blinded by the beauty and technology at the beginning, what is the cause of the beginning of the unit plot story, and where is the end of the story? Look at the end of the film again. The appearance of Rogue One played by Jackie Chan is too puzzling. A superman-like equipment rushed into our field of vision. Anyway, you also got up and showed me the shot of you comprehending patriotism. Bar. That's not all, Rogue Two and Three appeared on the helicopter when Rogue One was smashed to pieces, and there was not a single shot to lay before the movement of the plane.
Some people say that the 3D of the film is very annoying, which makes me feel at a loss after watching 2D, I really want to see how pitiful the 3D visual effect is. There are a lot of laughs in the film. This is a great scene in Jackie Chan's film. It was formed in Jackie Chan's early classic action films such as "Snake Shaped Hands" and "One Move and a Half", and it has been passed down to this day. An essential recipe in Jackie Chan movies.
The most outstanding part of the film is the scene in the jungle on the island. It is full of jokes, thrilling and exciting, and the visual effect is very good. Coupled with the super strong and super fast rhythm, this scene looks very attractive, and the actor's modeling is also quite brilliant, especially the pirates help the actors, which is quite interesting, and the character modeling is also very cool.
Of course, Jackie Chan's muscles and bones are the focus of many people's discussions. In the film, there is no lack of seeing Jackie Chan's performance in action is particularly difficult. the last time. But from the perspective of the finished film, I personally feel that Jackie Chan's movements are still undiminished. Although the movements are a bit sensitive, they are coherent and funny. In addition, the synthesis of the current technology, the action scenes in the film are also quite worthy of recognition.
The actors of "Zodiac", like "New Police Story", continue to use a group of new-generation movie stars. From this point of view, the effect is far inferior to the latter. Many actors perform well, but many times they become green leaves and vases. The plot of the film is cumbersome, and there are a lot of things that I want to express, but I didn't get the idea. Many scenes in order to make the actors stand out are superfluous. Of course, the storyline of the film has a central idea, and no matter how false this central point is, just looking at the disunity of everyone's thoughts in the first half, it suddenly becomes unified in the second half, and the thoughts before and after are not balanced at the same time , the turning point of the middle connection is really incomprehensible.
At the beginning of the film's promotion, the signboard of "Jackie Chan's last action film" was dubious, but it also gave off a hint of old-fashioned emotion. Even though "Zodiac" made me feel that it was brilliant, it was still unsatisfactory. . But no matter what, thanks to Jackie Chan and the Jackie Chan movies that grew up with him in those years.
