In a luxurious and ancient school, four inseparable handsome men and a silly girl broke into their lives recklessly. Do you feel familiar with this kind of plot setting? That's right, at the heart of "Devil Contract" is an American version of the Meteor Garden. After Kamio Yoko's "Boys Over Flowers" was filmed in Taiwan, Japan, Korea, and more than one mainland version, the much-anticipated American version finally made its debut! Of course, the Americans refused to admit that they were shooting "Meteor Garden." In order to avoid copyright fees, they tried to stuff a lot of messy stuff into it, and the result was a stew.
First of all, following the fashion and adding magical elements to the campus theme of youth idols, American F4 has become the heirs of the four major families, all with supernatural powers, just like another "Harry Potter". After a brief introduction to the magical background, the American F4 finally made its debut. Four handsome guys lined up and appeared one after another in slow motion, looking very cool. Immediately afterwards, the actor ran into a blond silly girl with a big chest and brainless at the party (Daoming Temple Chuhui Shancai), and the two fell in love. Seeing that the plot of the soap opera was about to unfold, the director suddenly realized that this was a magical film, so he quickly arranged a chase scene. The American F4 took off on a sports car and learned Harry Potter thoroughly. Afterwards, the actor returned to his home, which was a gorgeous and cold house. The relationship between mother and son was very tense, and the plot began to return to the route of "Meteor Garden".
In all fairness, this American version of F4 is all high-quality handsome guys. They need to look good, and they need to be in shape. Natural beauty is hard to abandon, in order not to violent the heavens, the director arranged a swimming scene for them on a whim.
Let the handsome guys dangle unnecessarily in front of the camera wearing narrow swimming trunks, which fully meets the needs of the majority of female fans. The big villain began to show up in the swimming class. He was handsome and handsome. This director has no other skills, but his casting skills are top-notch. The next paragraph is the love scene between Daoming Temple and American Cedarwood. It is full of clichés about Prince Charming and Cinderella. It makes people sleepy. I suggest you skip it. The director's mind is obviously not above it. Where is the director's mind? Look down and you will know.
The big villain finally started to act. It turns out that this handsome guy also has special powers. His purpose in coming to the school is to avenge the descendants of the four major families. The most bizarre scene of the whole play makes its debut without warning! Saying that the American Shancai returned to the dormitory after a date and was humming a small tune with joy, when the big villain suddenly appeared and brought her down. The protagonist is not a fuel-saving lamp, so he immediately fought, and the two handsome guys were both fetching things from the air, so the things in the dormitory would naturally suffer.
In a battle, the male protagonist was inferior to human skills and was knocked over and unable to move. It is said that this is the best time for the villain to get revenge, but he suddenly did one of the strangest things: he leaned down, kissed affectionately on the actor's face, and then walked away. This paragraph completely threw me down! At that time, half of the apple in my hand fell to the ground all at once, and I couldn't relax for a long time. It is a stroke of magic! What exactly does the director want to do? Do you want to make the campus magic version of "Brokeback Mountain"? In the process of revenge, the villain fell in love with the enemy's son. Ordinarily, this is an excellent subject, but unfortunately, the director suddenly puts on an emergency brake when he shoots here. (It is estimated that the producer is crazy)
After the dog's blood was spilled, the film finally came to an end. The villain kidnapped American Shancai and asked the hero to go to a duel in the wilderness. (It's really unnecessary. Wouldn't it be easy to start earlier?)
Ordinarily, this kind of life and death should be swarmed by F4, but other people knowingly improperly use light bulbs and let the two handsome guys solve their relationship problems by themselves. The location of the duel was chosen in an abandoned warehouse, because the crew was very poor, and there was no money for stunts and sets. Lightning and thunder, rainstorms like notes, symbolizing the anxious hearts of two people. American Cedarwood fell asleep on the sidelines, and the two handsome guys started fighting each other. The big villain has the upper hand but still can't bear to hurt the killer (no way, who told him to move him sincerely), the male protagonist is inferior to the human but is stalking there (he must be annoyed that the other party took the opportunity to eat his own tofu) , Coupled with rough special effects and crappy sound effects, ushered in the climax of the film.
The big villain fell in love with the hero's duel scene, which reminded me of Tsui Hark's version of "Invincible in the East". Just like this, the two handsome guys became disheveled, their clothes were disheveled, sweat was dripping, and they breathed slightly. Seeing that the director couldn't deal with it, he quickly arranged for the hero to be possessed by the gods and won the final victory. The villain died with love and hatred for the hero. Such a flawed American version of "Meteor Garden" has actually won the top spot in the North American box office rankings. This is really unreasonable! There is nothing but handsome guys.
