It's "Underworld" again. To be honest, as the fifth film in this series, I watched it with the determination that it would be bad. After watching it, I found that this rotten film is quite conscientious. First, the audience wants to see everything, such as Selene in tight black leather without Na. The second is that the film is 91 minutes long, and the actual film length is only 81 minutes after removing the film company logo and ending subtitles at the beginning.
When the first "Underworld" was just released, I was still in junior high school. This modern story of werewolves and vampires, whether 14 years ago or now, is quite fashionable. In particular, Celine in a tight black leather jacket suddenly enlarged for her true love. From then on, she wandered far away. With such a rebellious and divergent ending, it was surprising and reverie.
The second part is the story of Li Shashen and Liu Zhanxian. While the special effects are improved, it also expands the world view of "Legend of the Underworld". When one Zhao Ritian dies, of course there will be a second Zhao Ritian.
The third is a prequel, and the fourth is a bad movie. "Underworld 5: Blood War" was released in the United States in January 2017. The film information indicated that the film was the end of the Underworld series, and I personally had reservations.
Why are the first two "Underworld" so good-looking, one is Beckinsale in a tight black leather jacket, just like the bald Vin Diesel who is indispensable in the "Extreme Agent" series and "Interstellar Legend" series. Although these two series are the same as "Underworld", they are getting worse and worse, but we also have the latest "Furious" in which Charlize Theron and the nuclear submarine joined, "Furious 8".
The second is the unique world view setting, werewolves and vampires who cannot be killed by a shuttle of bullets, and some stronger vampire elders. There are many werewolves, and the transformation is very cool. The first werewolf is one, and the pawn is the pawn. The protagonist of the two races mixed with the evolution of the protagonist, and there is another romantic relationship between the two, it is really a picturesque gap between killing the gods and beheading the immortals.
Why are the last two parts of "Underworld" so bad? The first is the low-cost small production. Although our human eyes will not change color and our ribs will not expand, we can see at a glance if the special effects are bad.
If you don't have enough money, you can only make up the script. If you don't have enough hard power, you can make a lot of gimmicks. If you give birth to a vampire werewolf hybrid daughter today, you can change your life and blow up the earth. Tomorrow this daughter will only live in her mother's memories. The weak plot is matched with Zhao Ritian, who appears again and again, compared to only Celine in a tight black leather jacket, who constantly bleeds her own blood, sucks special blood, and constantly develops new tricks and constantly evolves. The black leather jacket is also tighter and brighter.
The fifth film of the "Underworld" series has been filmed. While the black leather clothes remain unchanged, there is gradually a lack of rigorous settings that are indeed a special world view. The Millennium War is less heavy, and the vampires and werewolves are less mature. Watch the whole film Totally not satisfied.
Just like the domestic TV dramas broadcasted by TV stations today, not to mention the ancient costumes of modern times, the blind men in high heels who wear high heels, the anti-Japanese female soldiers whose faces are whiter than flour, and the gods who created the world and tens of thousands of years. The poor acting skills and the brain-dead plot really make people tremble.
Here I think of "Late Night Cafeteria", even without a tight black leather jacket, it can warm the heart and stomach.
Get my big jacket now.
