As a result, they are playing with colors. The colors are fascinating. The human eye can distinguish about 10 million colors, but there is usually no opportunity for such an amazing ability. Unless we watch movies like Speed Racer, our ability to distinguish and appreciate colors will be greatly challenged. For me, this challenge is very enjoyable.
There is a classic color scheme in "Dream of Red Mansions": light green with pink. Very elegant. The color of Speed Racer is vigorous, vulgar, and elegant. The scenes in the film are extremely lively, eclipsing all adjectives about colors, but putting so many colors together is not rustic at all. It seems that a child is painting, exhausting all the colors on the palette with great interest; it is also like the spectrum of ramen being drawn into a large plate of ramen, colorful and colorful, but still harmonious. Warm and elegant, presumptuous and innocent, strong and proper. Its use of colors and patterns is unconcealed and very arrogant, almost reaching a certain limit. Although it is geared towards children, it is actually a masterpiece, at least in terms of color and design.
Just looking at the stills, you can find that although there are countless colors in a picture, the color matching of parts and details is elegant and concise, and you must not forget it. This is a characteristic of Gaoming. Each picture also has a unified tone and temperament. As for the design, the film is full of all kinds of highly fashionable and futuristic designs. From cars, runways, buildings, homes to weather, scenery and natural environment, this is a big playground. Design elements are also diverse, from two-dimensional planes to the latest computer animations, 18 martial arts have appeared on the stage, cooperating with each other, but also conflicting and contrasting, integrating exciting pictures. What impressed me the most was that there was a fight between good and bad guys. The protagonist’s naughty brother and the pet orangutan jumped up to beat the bad guys. Suddenly, a full-screen colorful diagonal line appeared on the screen. On the background, it is very abrupt and funny. There was laughter in the cinema. This kind of warm spoof is quite different from Quentin.
The car racing scene in this film is very enjoyable, the first episode of "Star Wars" and last year's "Cars" should have such scenes.
Of course, not all audiences can digest this style. It is unexpected that the box office is so miserable. Because the production of this film is absolutely top-notch, very detailed and original, although it looks very silly, but she is a beautiful silly big sister.
Speaking of stupidity, it is deliberate. The story reads the beginning and the end, and the dialogue listens to the beginning and the end. The characters are flat, and there is no suspense. The box office is not good, these should be the main reasons. However, I feel that in a movie that goes all out to play visuals, the director seems to have deliberately cartoonized the characters and stories to match the exaggerated and dazzling pictures. Speaking of playing deep, the dirty driver brothers are not covered, but they will not play this time. This film is a tribute to the Japanese animation Speed Racer, and it strives to be authentic and does not want to play sublimation and improve the set. It seems that a person loved painting when he was a child, and has always loved a certain comic book. When he grows up, he becomes a painter. He pulls out the simple black and white painting, traces it and paints it from beginning to end. His methods are clever, but his interest stays at the level of love and pleasure of the hour. He doesn't care about profound works. He has done those. He just wants to go back to his childhood happily. I am very envious of artists who can do this.
Very satisfied with the unscrupulous rampage of this film. As a fan, of course, I also try to compare the similarities and differences between the film and the director's previous works. Only find some similarities that are not very important: for example, the heroines are all tough and enchanting, from Bound to The Matrix to Speed Racer. From the perspective of my female audience, their female characters are actually very arrogant and sexually explicit. Not beautiful. Another similarity is the chic and neat editing, from the same editor Zach Staenberg. In the end, the director's way of reasoning has not changed, and he likes long talks as soon as he starts his speech. Many people criticized the two sequels of "Hacker" for this, but the situation in the first episode of "Hacker" is also obvious. When Morpheus opened his mouth, he was like a quack warlock who was very pretentious. He was actually a quack warlock. The reasoning in Speed Racer is relatively simple, so it sounds more boring, but if it is shown to children, the effect is of course different, I believe children are more acceptable.
The story is that we must be driven by inner enthusiasm, not at the mercy of commercial interests. This time the director took Warner’s money and enjoyed it. They should also believe in this motivation. Do what you like and achieve the ultimate. Although the business fails, but the high is over, there is no regret. Leave regrets to Warner's management. I sincerely hope that they will have film shots in the future. I have a feeling, these two, if you give them a little less money, maybe they will produce better works.
Speed Racer is not a film that pursues perfection in every aspect, it only pursues partial perfection-vision. It did it. It's not uncommon for it to be peaceful, it wants to play to the end. Just as the prophet said in "Hacker III": I just want to unbalance it.
Moreover, although the story is clichéd , but I found a handsome guy in it, I was overjoyed. Racer-X, my newest nympho object. Oh roar! (This character was originally intended for Keanu, but he turned it down. It's as handsome as a replacement.)
