Jane. Isn't Austin just romance? Those protagonists have been thinking about how to get married all day long. What's so fun about this? The theme of love and marriage feels so tacky, trite, and outdated. You can know the story by watching the movie version, and there are also handsome men and beautiful women to watch.
Alas, marital events are just an entry point. Austin is a master of satire with no swear words. You can see how she exposes people's hypocrisy and petty evils, that's amazing! No matter how you shoot the movie version, there is no way to put all those wonderful dialogues in! You have to read a book to see it.
This film is really a spoof (but it looks a bit like a semi-finished product), it is recommended that you just want to see the zombies. And you have to read "Pride and Prejudice" and understand the stalk of the original. Some viewers think that the inexplicable emotional line or character development is because of the original. In fact, this is a romance film (incorrect) (I can rely on love clips, identifying British actors, and costume props to survive, really).
Pride and Prejudice is a classic British costume romance novel in the world. His first sentence is that in Britain, you must know that a rich man must find a marriage partner. But at the beginning of the spoof novel, this is a well-known truth: a living corpse who has enjoyed a lot of brains will definitely want more brains. As far as the movie is concerned, watching zombies or fighting will not be enjoyable, he is just an evil way of interspersing the original plot. In the original work, the heroine attracts the arrogant hero by virtue of wisdom that is different from ordinary girls. This film relies on a heroic athlete who is different from aristocrats to save handsome (?
Marriage and female celebrities are important in this film, but it is more important to kill zombies. People in the upper class must send their children to Japan to learn martial arts, but the heroine (middle class) father sent five daughters to the Shaolin Temple in China. The beginning of the plot is set because of the war caused by the raging corpses in Britain, so Europeans began to learn. Eastern thought (Japanese ninjutsu and Chinese wisdom)... Therefore, the five sisters of the heroine are even more sturdy and wild, and they are also dismissed by the noble class, but the heroes from the noble family are attracted.
The original book "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" is introduced like this: The beloved Jane. The updated version of Austin's novels adds a new scene of human-chewing zombies raging. At the beginning of our story, a mysterious plague descended on the peaceful English village of Maryton-the dead returned to the world! Forcing the Bennett and his wife to send their five daughters to China to receive training in murderous fighting skills like "Chasing Bill", turning them into the evolutionary version of "Charlie Babies"; also motivating aristocrats such as Catherine. Mrs. Debo hired ninjas to guard the army. The lively and combative heroine Elizabeth possesses the superb "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" killer technique and is determined to eliminate the threat of zombies, but she is quickly distracted by the appearance of the arrogant and conceited Mr. Darcy. The two young lovers went through a lot of elegant moves, and even more fierce fighting on the bloody battlefield, just like the mandarin ducks in the "Smith Mission", the more they fought. But can love conquer everything? Including batch after batch of Satan’s offspring and brain-thirsty zombies? Full of romance, heartbreak, swords and shadows, brain-eating meat and thousands of rotten corpses... "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" retains most of the original text, but mixed with "Ultra Violent Zombie Massacre" The bloody plot of, sublimated a world literary masterpiece to a new and alternative horror peak.
Taking the movie as the first text, because there is no book "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" as a reference, and at the same time, I am true love of the original book. Aiming at the feature of spoofing the classics, I have a good comment on the book "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies". Generate interest and curiosity. Indeed, reading this book (or watching a movie) on the premise of being familiar with the original will feel interesting because of the differences and subversion between the two. For example, the five sisters embroidering at home were replaced by martial arts training, Darcy and Elizabeth were red and embarrassed for the first marriage proposal accompanied by violent swords, Jane's cold was attributed to the attack of zombies, and the mansion dance club used the sisters' vigorous skills to kill zombies. The dramatic end, Darcy became a cold-blooded soldier because he killed the zombie father himself, the ruthless Mrs. Diebold turned into a majestic zombie heroine, and Lydia's embarrassing elopement turned out to be abducted by zombies? !
I am very happy to be spoofed while looking for a stem that is similar to the original. Such an adaptation brings a lot of sparks to the somewhat pale and boring love life in the English countryside. Elizabeth and Darcy are really sparkling in the film, and they are also the most beautiful group in the adaptation over the years. At the same time, the coexistence of elegance and killing is full of curiosity. (The soundtrack is also rare in this kind of British costume film and television?)
But normal people around the cinema should be embarrassing and cursing WTF. What did I watch? It is recommended not to have too high expectations, and then you can relax watching the characters in the movie plot without too high requirements The clips can be brain-filled but still blunt, and the fighting scenes are too dark but not addictive. For a smooth movie-watching demand, it is a big injury.
