To be honest, I have been hovering between three stars and four stars in the rating of this film. Three stars is because his screenwriter is not rigorous and there are too many slots. But in the end I gave it four stars for its originality and ingenuity in its plot.
Wolfenstein, Call of Duty, Band of Brothers, Saving Private Ryan
In this film, you can see the shadow of the above classic movies or games, game control and zombie movie fans should resonate. The airborne long shot of the title is very shocking, and the plot is relatively compact. Originally, I was looking forward to the German army scientists, like the dead skull in the Wolfenstein headquarters or other Nazi scientists, incarnation of the hidden BOSS to counterattack, and the result was as simple as GG. .
However, the zombies of others are all in pieces. From the beginning to the end, the protagonist encountered a total of 7 zombies, including the auntie upstairs of the heroine and the end of the film. There are only three zombie soldiers left. The movie uses these three to represent the three stages of zombie mutation, which is unique.
However, in some places, the screenwriters also feel that they are not very attentive. There are many flaws, such as
1. A landmine blows up people. Why are landmines so powerful? Did you blow up the tank? The bomber of the tank will not be triggered by the infantry. Even if the power is so great, the five people are so close, and one person is blown up, but the others are the same as the normal people, this is not reasonable.
2. The female protagonist fights the zombies who get down and chase her. The first reaction is not to leave the nearest hole, but to run into the house. I feel that the screenwriter forced her to find a flamethrower. If the female protagonist wants to cover the child, she shouldn't climb in as well.
3. The child was chased by the German soldiers and ran and shot him without stopping. When they reached the square where they were fighting, they stopped. You said he panicked? Why didn't you stop at the beginning, just to let him run to the square and let the soldiers save him and then eat a gun?
4. The male protagonist has a serious halo. For example, he was chased by a dog and climbed into a German truck. In normal operation, you are not beaten into a sieve, and you are captured at the last time. The dose of serum also rescued a comrade-in-arms. This is an airborne area. The US military just jumped over the parachute. How loose is the German garrison? Besides, is it good to have such a thick tube in your comrade's stomach? It has no effect from beginning to end. I am still looking forward to this buddy going back to mutate. It's much more reliable to turn into a zombie in the end, isn't it?
5. As a French village girl, the heroine is proficient in all kinds of weapons, from pistols to MP44s to flamethrowers.
6. Who is so foolish as to capture a prisoner and turn in the rifle but not the pistol? And then keep looking back? French village girls think they have long lives? You put a lot of pressure on the captives to stand in the same direction as you are looking?
But the flaws do not hide the truth. Overall, this film is not bad, much better than the zombie film that you want to turn off after watching it for three minutes. This film is actually a small cost, but good steel is used on the blade, and the computer effects of the mutated German officers at the beginning and end of the film are very realistic. Game control and World War II movie zombie movie control can take a look.
Just watch a movie, just be happy, watch it if you like it, turn it off for the next one if you don’t like it, there’s no need to attack each other, and there’s no need to get angry.
