I consider myself to be always kind, forgiving, and compassionate in my ratings. Usually, whenever a bad movie has merit, I try to give it a 2. For this film, I made up the corresponding reasons in advance. One point for Keanu Reeves' looks and the whole suit, and one point for the music that pokes me.
But I really want to give this film 1 star, I really can't figure out how to make the fighting that is still desirable to have no rhythm, and there is absolutely no desire to watch it. Even the all-to-the-meat fight looks like a child's play. In addition, to be honest, in 2014's action films, even if the level of fighting and thrilling is not as high as that of the golden age of Hong Kong films, your special effects are only on the level of blowing up a car? It is said that the film does not even have a fight on the plane at the end, is this really a Hollywood action film? If not, I hope the cost is really low enough to not be able to do good special effects. Otherwise, I'll give it a 1 star if I really miss it.
Okay, if you're not a qualified action movie, what about your plot? Ah my goodness. Don't talk, please don't talk. In fact, I was tolerant and justified it at first. After all, this is the only relic left by my deceased wife. This kind of anger is justifiable. Aside from the character's motives, the director and writer have two chances to prove that the show's plot has merit. However, there are two kinds of films with off-line IQ, one is smug, and the other is unabashed. And this crew obviously belongs to the latter, and I fully understand that kind: I know that my academic performance is not good, but at any rate, my specialty is fighting, and it is the invincible player who has beaten primary schools all over the world. So learn what to learn, concentrate on fighting. The plot is entirely for the sake of fighting scenes, but you are not fighting heavyweight boxing, nor is it WWE, but the primary school group! No, no, in fact, in addition to serving the fight, it also serves for the protagonist to install 13.
But I thought, the director and the star are not a man named Ma? And I can't understand Keanu Reeves, who has been working hard in action movies for so many years. Although this love is worthy of praise, can you make quality movies? I'm sorry, I don't watch enough movies, I really can't think of Keanu Reeves other than the "Matrix" series, which other works can be produced. Is "The Matrix" really a talent black hole that sucks out the talents of many people?
But having said that, in today's decline of action films, it is indeed difficult to find good action films with both coolness and plot. What's more, the definition of cool in China is becoming more and more in fantasy and fairy tales. Maybe firearms and fighting have gradually become old boys' old dreams. But even so, I still stubbornly insist, even if the works of this theme can no longer find half-frame traces in the cinema, no amount of feelings and nostalgia can affect my requirements and pursuit of the quality of the film.
