It was the largest collective nostalgia in the history of modern film. Almost every ending of "Change 1" can deeply hit the audience's emotions and arouse endless applause-we are in the dark and childhood. Old friends meet, so childhood memories are complete in the flow of light and shadow.
I think that is the best gift a filmmaker can bring to us.
And after "Change 2", we can be sure that there is finally another master of dreammaking in the world of movies.
"Change 2" is a film that culminates in visual and sound effects. In fact, such a movie should not have any nonsense technical analysis at all, because you will be overwhelmed or speechless by the handsome scenes in the movie all the time. When the ancient and vigorous music sounds and the dawn of the horizon shines on the mysterious land, you can already give yourself to this movie. Michael Bay is a true audio-visual artist. The countless classic moments he left in "ROCK" are still regarded as the insurmountable peak of action movies. And this time, he took the single-screen beauty of the movie to its extreme.
For a full 2 and a half hours, there is no cold and dullness. The camera is in gorgeous and smooth operation most of the time. Even the most vulgar 360-degree rotating lens that expresses the intimacy of two people can pass the speed increase and decrease. Come a different surprise. He knows what kind of angle is the most dynamic and what kind of editing is the most dramatic. He is the person who knows best how to use computer CG to assist scheduling. Therefore, no matter how complicated the scene is, he can clearly arrange the position and movement of the camera, making every blasting more shocking. I don't know what Mark Foster would feel when he saw "Change 2" after destroying "Quantum Crisis" with the editing of a literary film.
The story of "Change 2" has been strengthened compared to the previous one, but the plot line arrangement can only be regarded as quite satisfactory. The first 90 minutes of the film are smooth and full. The battle between the protagonist’s real life and the robot world alternately advances and crosses each other. There are many warm jokes and moist tears (although it is only a few seconds of touch). It is worth mentioning that the film’s soundtrack enhances the atmosphere. This aspect has been quite successful, and the sales of soundtracks seem to be inevitable. But since the protagonist embarked on the journey of seeking fire, the two lines have been united and the follow-up is weak. Under the situation that most viewers have guessed the ending, Bei has not brought us unexpected surprises. If there is no two-combination support, the latter half of "Bian 2" will simply ruin a classic because of the lack of climax. He has not provided the audience with a channel for emotional vent through the conventional sensational route, but you will feel that, He is using such a relaxed and natural way to maintain his pride as an action film director.
—————————————————————————— After
watching two consecutive screenings, it was a bit vague. Especially after experiencing the torture of Z-level production like "What a Big Thing", in front of the S-level "Change 2", I feel that I can't hold my head up. Seeing the incomparably beautiful skydiving scenes in "Change 2", I suddenly remembered the disaster blockbuster "Emergency Landing", which was claimed to represent the highest level of domestic stunt production. The people in it also jumped down. As a result, the whole person was Covered on the mountain like a big pie...
I very much doubt whether our special effects will reach the level of today's "Change 2" in another 20 years. However, what I doubt more is what we can do even if we reach this level s work. For a long time, our investment standards have been surrounded by the main theme and paradise. Our directors are often tied to their heads before they are tied up, asking themselves to be confused, and how can they talk about artificial dreams.
Mulan, pandas, etc. have already been borrowed and used by others. I really don’t want to go back to other people’s world after 20 years.
