" is a commentary It can be said that it is not widely; but it is unfortunate to put it in the Lunar New Year file in 2012, because another comedy film "Thailand" with amazing laughter not only broke box office records, but also had a surprisingly good reputation. In contrast, "Zodiac" can still get a piece of the pie at the box office, but in terms of word of mouth, it is really lacking. Jackie Chan playing juggling As the audience expected, the biggest selling point of "Zodiac" is still the old and ageless Jackie Chan. Jackie Chan is nearly 60 years old, and he takes the lead in everything and does everything by himself. The action scenes are played from beginning to end, and it can be said that he is not fighting for his life. Although the behind-the-scenes sensationalism in the ending credits earned some sympathy points for the eldest brother, but realistically speaking, "Zodiac" is still a sideshow movie belonging to the 1980s and 1990s. The style, even if it has been plated with gold on the Hollywood assembly line, still does not change the "video hall temperament" of Jackie Chan's films. What's even more disappointing for the tasteless heroine is that, apart from the fact that Jackie Chan's fight is still juggling, the heroine is also tasteless and uninteresting. The heroine played by the newcomer starts to recite the main melody lines as soon as she appears, and her anger against the French invaders is full of the arguments of junior high school textbooks-note that she is not joking, she is discussing history very seriously, and quarrels like a little girl stance to snatch cultural relics. Well, the screenwriter may not be able to do anything about it, not only to fit the main theme, but also to reflect the entertainment, but also to make the heroine stand tall and pave the way for enlightening Jackie Chan and his gang of "thieves" to change their evil ways - difficult! Moreover, in the last paragraph of the film, the heroine's performance of begging Jackie Chan to save her brother is simply the level of the Spring Festival Gala sketch + Beijing Film Interview. If you change to a slightly more soulful actor, it is entirely possible to create a scene that is enough to incite the audience's tears. Classic bridge - a pity! 90's jokes
As a comedy film, the most regrettable thing about "Zodiac" is that the jokes are all from "ancient times".
"The missile was fired, the person next to him was blackened, and a black face and white teeth grinned..." This scene has appeared in at least dozens of versions in Hong Kong films; Teasing, since "Home Alone" has been played out on the street; as for Jackie Chan's dog fighting, Jackie Chan stealing pictures, Jackie Chan's hippie smile, Jackie Chan being self-defeating, Jackie Chan hitting someone else's hand hurts... Sorry, we've seen enough of these for a long time .
In general, "Zodiac" is a Jackie Chan movie packaged in the Hollywood model, and it's the kind that Jackie Chan was obsessed with juggling in his early days-although we have full respect for the respected Jackie Chan elder brother, but for movies, we still have to Let's be honest: I hope my brother has a good rest, and take care of your health!
