The setting and plot of the movie are quite common, but the completeness, rationality and richness of the plot and the appropriate narrative rhythm still gave me a lot of surprises.
There are many elements in the whole article. It combines the main types of science fiction, action, and adventure, but also involves elements such as monsters, robots, disasters, etc., so it has its own presuppositions and rules. But the overall structure is very compact, and it goes straight to the theme at the beginning. Before the title of the film is released, the background of the story and what the male protagonist has experienced before are extremely simply told. The whole chapter is also in the development of the story, and some explanations are given naturally and not bluntly with a little pen and ink.
The male protagonist first came to the base and his teammates went from questioning to trusting. The male protagonist and the female protagonist slowly got to know each other and understood each other. The male protagonist re-acquainted with the old machine that has not been used for a long time. , the special affection between the heroine and the black general, the psychological shadow before the hero and heroine... There are many places where this film can be developed in detail. What is rare is that the narrative is concise and lively, everything serves the plot, and the emotional rendering is as far as it goes, and there is no excess. The brush and ink and superfluous sensationalism only depict the cause and effect of each character's behavior. The behavior of each character is in line with the previous situation, reasonable and naturally not abrupt. The actor expresses the emotions of the character very well. When the heroine first appeared, she felt that she was not beautiful and charming enough, but then she felt that she had her own experience, ability, and personality, and she didn't sell her looks very much.
The special effects are also commendable. The extremely abstract and imaginative plot of the two people connecting and sharing the brain to operate the machine is not bad. The special effects of robots and monsters fighting are also wonderful, whether it is at sea or on land. Poor Hong Kong should be messed up by monsters -_-|| But this movie shouldn't really come to Hong Kong to shoot, right? Although the street is full of shops in traditional Chinese characters, it is far from the feeling of the streets of Hong Kong that I have seen. . .
The soundtrack is also a highlight, and the atmosphere is calm and impressive. To say it's not enough, the only shortcoming is that the monsters are so ugly and disgusting, each one is different, but they are all so ugly!
Of course, this movie is not a masterpiece, but it can be regarded as a fairly mature sci-fi action movie with solid special effects and script.
By the way, in the end, the protagonists happily and firmly expressed that "the gap has been completely blocked, and the timing will never need to be restarted." . . Well, another monster base can be found in the Atlantic or Indian Ocean~
