Fortunately, I neither love watching horror films nor am I a fan of original comics, so I don’t have to bear too much psychological baggage to watch this movie. But this can only paralyze myself, and cannot fundamentally change the mediocre nature of the film.
From the beginning of the huge announcement that it would be released in 2018, to the repeated postponement, and finally low-key release in the spring of 2020 when the epidemic is raging, this X-MEN new era work that had been high hopes has skipped votes for more than two years. During this period, the old club sold to Disney, and his son became a tasteless one. The tone of the movie was changed again and again. Finally, in order to cater to PG-13, the originally unique dark wind was mixed with various elements such as campus youth and LGBT. Nondescript. It coincided that I finished watching the first anniversary of "Black Phoenix". Although I was reluctant, I still had to accept the ending that Erya would follow in the footsteps of the third fool.
In fact, from the time Flowserve sold itself, we can expect that X-MEN will likely decline. After all, Disney already has a big tree in reconnection, so naturally the gifts that come with it when doing business have to stand aside. As a result, this split-themed movie can only be carried by a few new characters with little mass base. The producer’s inattention to the film can be said to be everywhere. First, the scene is basically limited to a few buildings, the number of actors is also very few, the plot is simple and flat, even who is the villain, and the Essex company that makes myths. What is sacred, I have never mentioned it, and it is really hard work for these young young people to star.
But if we put aside the relationship with X-MEN's main line, and regard the film as an independent super-English popcorn, it is not useless. The confined space of the lunatic asylum is actually very suitable for creating an atmosphere of horror. The use of young actors also facilitates the accumulation of the mass base for the new series step by step. And most importantly, what is the super power of the protagonist Yuexing? The suspense remains until the end is revealed. The audience has experienced how to gradually discover the whole process of her hidden side from a girl who looks like a mortal. , This setting is at least successful. Of course, in terms of the atmosphere of horror, the film is just a taste of it, very unhappy, in terms of popularity, the protagonists are really too young to naive, they want science fiction at the same time, they want youth idols, but also have horror. They have too much appetite, so they just put a good end. The resources are dying.
This is how the market is, sometimes it is not based on the will of the masses, but at this point, the benefactor is strong, and the fans have nothing to say. I can only look forward to it. When the value of the reunion is consumed almost one day, Disney will pull out the X-MEN at the bottom of the box, remembering that there are fans who have not yet grown old with Uncle Wolf.
No surprises, no surprises, no recommendation, no collection.
