It is not uncommon for the film to try to combine romantic love with zombies. Pride and prejudice are gimmicks. How many people go for this name, whether they have read the original book or not, it is certain to compare the original book. But it can only be said that the movie did not tell the love between Elizabeth and Darcy, nor the zombie story, so it became very embarrassing, but it is worth affirming that the movie can open up this brain hole.
Austen's original book is known for its seemingly calm daily life narrative. You don't seem to be a big thing, but it is so interesting in her writing. For example, when you attend a dance, you overhear other people's evaluation of yourself. But one thing becomes the theme of the novel: Pride and Prejudice. The various misunderstandings in the novel are too small, not just a few gossips, and Wickham is not a big villain, at most a playboy. But the novel is full of tension in this seemingly bland narrative. It must be said that Austen is very powerful and can hold people's hearts tightly. Let us follow her into the world of novels slowly. But the zombie film itself is destined to be impossible to be ordinary. The appearance of zombies breaks the order of daily life, and also breaks the narrative tension that Austin arranged in the original work. The film must rearrange its own tension, but this is obviously not the case. well done. The protagonists of the film are too busy, fighting zombies and falling in love at the same time. The narrative of the entire film makes people feel rushed and has too many loopholes. The most obvious is Wickham's blackening. After watching the movie, I still haven't figured out what he wants, does he want money? At least start the movie to give us this hint (this is also the premise of the novel itself), go to Lady Catherine for sponsorship or something, and then ask for money when Darcy comes out to rescue Lydia, and don't ask for money, saying that money is useless, to be Zombie King... The wounds on his body are also very strange. When did he get bitten? According to him, he should have been bitten after joining the army. So why did he ask for sponsorship? What logic is this... Darcy is also very strange. In the film, the setting of him feeding zombies to eat human brains seems to be blackened. Of course, because he is too noble in the original book, the original party cannot accept such a setting. It can only be said that his arrogance is set off by his ruthlessness towards zombies. The fact that Elizabeth and Jane turned into female warriors is very interesting, which basically conforms to the logical trend of the film. Lily's acting skills here are much better than Cinderella's. It would be more challenging for Elizabeth to overcome her prejudice and fall in love with him if she had another brain hole to turn Darcy into a zombie.
One thing that is worthy of recognition in the film is the proper placement of various memes: Japanese Kendo and Chinese Shaolin Kung Fu pk, which pleases Asian audiences; Doctor who turns into annoying Collins is also very funny; Darcy's white shirt swims in the lake to pay tribute It's a pity that the BBC version of the TV series did not appear wet...
