The picture has been greatly improved on the level. The experience from Longmen Flying Armor is more mature in the movie. But the visual effect of jumping around is too much, and it will always be aesthetically fatigued. The fineness of CG modeling and the creation of dynamic effects still need a lot of work. Especially the big lantern, so fake it couldn't be more fake. The big scene has shrunk a lot. The panorama of the Tang Dynasty in the previous work, the magnificent scene inside and outside the Buddha statue in the sky has been severely shrunk in the new work, which is very unpleasant.
Actors all change shifts from top to bottom, which is fatal. In the previous work, a character casually picked up, whether it is acting, aura or role grasp, it kills the headquarters in minutes. At that time, I thought Andy Lau's acting skills were mediocre, but in contrast, I knew that there was a world of difference. Especially Zhao Youting, tender, too tender. And the role-building is more exhausting one by one. Even if there are wonderful plots and dialogues, Antoin always loses his strength in each character.
I think the biggest problem with this game is the pacing. On the whole, there is no big problem with the big rhythm, but when it is refined to each character, there is a big difference in the dwell time of each expression. For example, in the opening scene of the annihilation of the navy, the rhythm was too slow; the camera stopped more than once on an actor's stiff expression (yes, I was talking about you, Zhao Youting), which made people wonder if the photographer was constipated. And the small orgasm is constant, and the big orgasm is indifferent, which is simply impotence for a group of audiences. The final battle is a remake of Pirates of the Caribbean. PS I don't think a large flounder can clap its hands and flick its tail and jump so flexibly. It's obviously a version of a big octopus.
Even so, I still look forward to Di Renjie's sequel. A few concept images at the end of the credits already set me on fire. I hope that the next step will be more serious, and Old Monster Xu will be more ruthless.
