I spent New Year's Eve this year in a hospital ward, bored, so I sneaked out to watch the just-released Bumblebee. The theater is located in an international studio 5 kilometers away from the hospital. The screening hall is a Dolby Cinema. The audition effect is excellent. The fly in the ointment is that the fragrance of the man next to me is too strong. I really want to pat him on the shoulder. Said: "Comrade, can you wipe off the perfume from your body, shall we watch a movie together again?"
Let's go a little further, let's go back to the movies. Michael Bay's "Transformers" series of movies, I got into the movie theater every time I followed the trend. After all, it is a big IP, but I was disappointed every time, and I even forgot the plot as soon as I walked out of the movie theater. Later, I communicated with my friends and found that It's not that I have amnesia, it's that the movie has no plot at all, only special effects... and commercials. The only picture I remember is of Megan Fox turning on the car's engine, revealing a charming and sexy little waist. This shot is from the first "Transformers" movie, which I think is the best movie in the "Transformers" series.
You must be wondering, why should I watch "Bumblebee" after complaining so much? The answer is simple, you don't need to go to science , In addition to special effects, there are plots, ignition points and unexpected cute points.
Sure enough, I was burned at the beginning of the movie. On the planet of Cybertron, the big brother Optimus Prime took the little brother Bumblebee to fight with the Decepticons, and the scene was very shocking. Some straight male fans said that this big drama alone was worth the ticket price.
For a straight girl like me, Bumblebee's boyfriend, MAX, is worth the ticket price. When the heroine is in crisis, he will transform into a straight steel man to protect her and prevent her from being hurt a little; when the heroine is discouraged, he will play songs to encourage her; when the heroine is wronged, he will avenge her , the car of the enemy of "Kenk" (this episode is super funny, I won't spoil it, please go to the cinema to watch it by yourself); when the time is quiet, he will playfully cooperate with the heroine and let the heroine dictate... ...Although he was born with a pair of steel and iron bones, when the heroine hugged him, he was full of tenderness.
Of course, he also has moments of tantrums, such as playing music he doesn't like listening to directly on the wall, looking like a domineering president. It can be salty and sweet to say that it is the bumblebee. For a single lady like me, who wants a boyfriend with Bumblebee?
The director Wes Knight contributed to the shaping of rhubarb so plump, three-dimensional and intimate. He is a veritable second-generation rich --- the son of Nike founder Phil Knight. Some people call him the American version of Wang Sicong. I am very unhappy with this nickname. Wes Knight is obviously a street handsomer than the national husband. More importantly, he is not interested in inheriting hundreds of billions of assets, nor does he intend to do business, but only wants to make movies.
Before filming "Bumblebee", he was an animation director with his own stop-motion studio (Laika Studio), and his debut animation "Legend of the Magic Strings" was nominated for Best Animated Feature at the 89th Academy Awards. Rumor: Lavis Knight once said in an interview that "Bumblebee" is a desperate work for him and his studio, and if it doesn't meet expectations after its release, it is likely to close the studio and go home to take over his father's Nike... After watching the movie, I was relieved that Lavis Knight no longer had to worry about inheriting hundreds of billions of assets.
Compared with the straight-steel movie "Transformers", "Bumblebee" skillfully balances the different demands of male and female audiences, with both hearty fighting scenes and a vivid storyline of the girl next door growing up.
The heroine Charlie is an 18-year-old rebellious girl in adolescence. She has never been able to get out of the shadow of losing her own father. In the new family established by her mother, she is like an outlier. During a dispute, she yelled at her mother: I am not like you, I can embrace a new life!
In fact, her mother and stepfather treated her very well, but they didn't understand her. On her eighteenth birthday, her mother gave her a pink motorcycle helmet (her own style is cool GIRL style); His stepfather gave her a book to teach her to smile (because she is always crying at home with a sad face). When she saw her mother, stepfather and half-brother sitting on the sofa happily eating pizza and watching TV shows, she felt even more that she didn't belong in this family.
There is a line in the movie that really touched me, it goes like this: The brightest stars shine in the darkest sky. While watching the movie, I was going through a dark moment in my life, and somewhere along the way, I was struck and encouraged by this quote. I can be a shining star no matter how dark it is, can't I? Besides, the sky is not always dark, and the darkest sky is always the sky before dawn.
I once wrote in an article: "Does the bad luck that befalls people really want to destroy someone? At first, I thought the answer was yes, now I don't think so, it can really destroy We only have ourselves, and when we lose our fighting spirit, give up our beliefs, and think that we are finished, we are really finished. And fate, no matter how cruel, is only to make our life more full and mellow, and make us like Breaking the cocoon into a butterfly, becoming a brand new self."
Fate took away the young girl Charlie's favorite father, but also gave her back to Bumblebee. During the journey with Bumblebee, she finally regained her long-lost smile and grew into a brave girl. And Bumblebee was also choked by fate, not only lost his voice but also lost his memory, but with the help of the girl Charlie, he not only found another way of pronunciation, but also turned into a super warrior. More importantly, he learned to care about humans.
Since the above paragraphs are too sensational and chicken soup, I will end with the following light text: The famous film critic Roger Ebert once wrote a film review ridiculing "Transformers 2": "Autobots, Decepticons and The dialogue of the other robots is meaningless, their accents are a mix of Brooklyn, British and Hip-Hop accents, and they play alien creatures.”
If the old man was still alive, he would not complain so much when he saw "Bumblebee", because the accents of Autobots and Decepticons are both robot (Siri) accents. Hahaha……
