"The Last Day of Pompeii" is based on the magnificent disaster history as the film background, and uses creativity and imagination to reshape the city of Pompeii. A moment of prosperity, political conspiracy and love between sons and daughters are added as a foreshadowing, and then a spectacular disaster scene is the climax of the movie... "The Last Day of Pompeii" is produced by Paul William Scott Anderson, the famous director of the "Resident Evil" series. Two youth idols, Kit Harington and Emily Browning, starred in A Song of Fire, and Kiefer Sutherland, the male star of the American drama "24 Hours," also joined to play the villain in the play... In a movie with less star appeal, in addition to the In addition to history as one of the selling points, the magnificent architectural landscape created by special effects and the disaster scenes of volcanic eruptions will naturally become the main selling point of "The Last Day of Pompeii", and the film did not disappoint the audience in this respect... After almost falling asleep in the first half, the special effects scene in the second half can be said to make people feel refreshed...
The story recounts that the place where the protagonist Milo lived when he was a child was located on a trade road, and the tribe was exterminated because he resisted the Roman senator Corvis to occupy it. Under the opportunity, he met Cassia, the daughter of the lord of Pompeii, but Corvis forced him to take Cassia as his wife. Therefore, in addition to waiting for the opportunity to avenge the pain of genocide, Milo had to save the beloved woman, but the natural disaster came at this time... "Pompeii" Doomsday" makes me feel that the main focus of the whole play is the disaster at the end. The various plot arrangements in the first part are just to make up the time length of the movie, and a cliché story is set on the tragic historical disaster. In the end, people The impression will only stay in the shocking special effects scene, forgetting the boring political drama and the death fight between men... I am one of them. At this moment, I must try very hard to recall the city of Pompeii before the disaster. What is it for?
However, the main love element is not deeply portrayed, except for the first encounter and several eye-to-eye contact, the only thing that makes Milo and Cassia warm up is the galloping on horseback. In that part, if you want to see more interactions between handsome guys and beauties, you will be disappointed... Apart from the dispensable political part, it is also impressive that only Milo and his friend Atticus in prison reenacted the ancient Roman era on the arena The royal family and aristocrats used low prisoners as entertainment to fight to the death... "The Last Day of Pompeii" is rated PG-13 in North America, but Malaysia can only watch it if you are over 18 years old. It is nothing more than a lot of violent scenes in the movie. The female friends around me couldn't help crying out in pain... The weak script is a flaw in "The Last Day of Pompeii", it's just a fictional storyline but can't integrate the climax of the disaster scene, the first part and the latter part seem to have nothing to do with each other. The doomsday scene did not disappoint. The disasters brought about by natural disasters unfolded vividly on the screen. Skyfire burned the city, flint destroyed the wall, and then there was a tsunami attack. The CG special effects were all worth watching... After the disaster, all the leading actors did not Running away to save one's life, but also endless revenge fights and superhuman evasion ability will not complain, anyway, this is what it should have...
The first half of the lengthy foreshadowing, explaining the development of the story, the relationship between the characters, the second half of the doomsday disaster scene turns to the fleeing Pompeii people and the hero's revenge and love struggle... Except for the grandeur of the scene, the rest of the plot is not perfect, the hero and heroine are not perfect. There are still no ups and downs, vigorous, and splendid love links appear, not to mention kisses and hugs before the end, and it is not love that two people flee on horseback... Science and civilization have indeed prevented modern human beings The loss of a large number of lives, in ancient times, human beings blamed the changes in nature on the gods, and they were still ignorant and unknown at the moment before the disaster. Gods... So human beings continue to make progress. Now we can mention fires, earthquakes and tsunamis, but we can't stop them. The earth is very mysterious. , The conditions that a commercial production must have are complete, although the plot is all cliché and shallow, but the disaster scene and historical background still have a chance to recover...
