Before watching the movie, if you've read the original book, if you've heard wind of the reviews, you should be prepared for this.
But the performance of the movie is still amazing. It is hard to understand why a movie with an investment of more than 100 million yuan is so vulgar that it puts 80% of the wonderful scenes in the trailer like those low-budget movies.
But at the beginning of the film, there is no such clue.
The opening of the movie, Comedian's fight, is very exciting and neat, and the opening song after that is even more exciting. It briefly and concisely introduces the deeds of the old heroes, explains the changes in their status, and quickly passes through some details. It depicts the background of the era in such a way, and with a hint of black humor, it really makes people applaud.
But from the series of historical events and political figures that frequently appear in the opening song, we should know that many children have been abandoned outside the plot of this movie from the very beginning.
After that, from the perspective of the effect film, except for some bloody scenes, the wonderful pictures were lackluster, and obviously had a feeling of getting rougher and rougher. I always felt that every time Comrade Manhattan appeared, the skin was a little less shiny. Moreover, most of the scenes that appeared in the trailers are actually secondary scenes that flashed by in the movie, and I have to once again lament the sinister intentions of the publishers.
There are some twists in the plot, but there is nothing difficult to understand, but understanding is a very difficult problem.
The whole story is based on the miserable and desperate mentality of the nuclear bomb crisis, and the story assumes that the United States won the Vietnam War and Nixon was in power, which made the possibility of a nuclear war infinitely greater than that in reality.
In the context of that era, Comedian's self-abandonment, Manhattan's indifference, Rorschach's cynicism, Dan's escapism, Silk Girl's incompetence, and the silent effort of the smartest one basically reflected the feelings of all the American people at that time. different mentality. (I think so, I don't know if it is true)
Perhaps they are a group of comic heroes who are closest to the mentality of normal people. They face life with the ideas that an ordinary person may have rather than the ideas of a "hero". I like this realistic portrayal, but many people may not be used to accepting a non-idol hero who is too close to a normal person.
But idols are everywhere. After all, there is also a Rorschach who is far away from ordinary people, and basically every bloody scene in the movie is related to him. His experience, his character, are actually very complicated, but his attitude towards life and dealing with things is simple, direct, and persistent. When looking at Rorschach, it may be very reminiscent of Marv in Sin City. He also uses violence to control violence, and his character is hearty.
Rorschach's character is destined to be a hit if the Watchmen movie's influence is big enough.
Back to the plot, in fact, after a long time, we can only try to understand the mentality of that era. After all, it is too far away from us. Maybe the old Americans will have more experience.
All in all, the plot of the story is good, and the overall level of the movie is also good. But distributors and directors are always misleading people into thinking it's an effects film and that the way the movie is viewed is unkind.
In fact, everyone knows that the director's filming is very good, but he spent his energy in some inappropriate places.
Silk Girl Er can be called the hottest female protagonist in the hero movies in recent years after the director's efforts. Her nude scene on the spaceship can also be regarded as the most worthy of the audience in the bed scene in the movie. Well, her smooth ass is the first shot I often see in my recollection of this movie. This is not how lewd I am, but the plot is really long enough, and the description is too delicate. . . It's hard not to be impressed.
Another profound scene believes that many people have a consensus. It's Dr. Manhattan's crystal-clear genitals. And it appears frequently. I don't know what the director's nonsense setting is for the thinking or purpose. What is even more unacceptable is that in the early days of the film, Dr. Manhattan was very reserved, rarely exposing his lower body in front of the camera, and occasionally when facing the camera, he always used a blur to express it, and it was clearer several times. Even wearing stretch pants. But I don't know when, Dr. Manhattan suddenly put aside his shyness and began to show his heart. Could it be that this is the external manifestation of his spiritual world when he sees through the world and prepares to go to Mars to recuperate? unknown.
