As a delayed film, "Wolverine 2" was released in China more than two months later than in North America. With the box-office reputation being finalized, the challenges it is expected to encounter in China are also very obvious. Of course, under the great country created by the X-Men, it is another time when there are not many big movies, and it can still attract a large number of Wolverine fans to the cinema.
When I watched the film, I found that it was not like a sequel to "Wolverine 1". It should be about the story after the X-Men trilogy. Facing the messy narrative and the insufficient premise of the plot, the audience really got used to it. But come. And let Logan fight shirtless in a group of oriental faces, showing off his muscles, is this still the Wolverine? Because the film is adapted from the Wolverine-themed mini-comic created by Frank Miller in 1982, and Frank Miller is greatly influenced by Japanese comics, it is normal for the headquarters' "Wolverine" to look like a Nissan product. .
The story framework of the whole film stems from Logan's rescue of Yashida, who was about to fulfill the spirit of Bushido, in the Nagasaki atomic bomb disaster. The two naturally became friends. When Yazhitian was about to die, he sent Dongying woman Xuesheng to ask Logan to meet him for the last time. Our Wolverine Logan embarked on a path of disaster full of conspiracies and blood stars. The duel between Wolverine and the Japanese Samurai kicked off.
"Wolverine 2" has always been used as a stunt fight scene, which makes people uninterested. Wolverine, who has lost his self-healing ability, seems to be stumbling and stumbling. Throughout the whole film, the only thing that makes people's adrenal hormones soar and blood boil is the fight on the roof of the moving car. On the high-speed Shinkansen, two people on the top of the fast-moving car compete not only for their fighting skills, but also for their intelligence. Wolverine's cunning jab is a joke, this mutant lets the audience see that he never Exposed humor and wit.
What happens when Wolverine meets Japanese Bushido and Steel Claw meets katana? Obviously, Logan was obviously unaccustomed to the environment, and only got beaten up. In the end, the invincible Wolverine could only cut off the head of the robot with the samurai sword. Whether it's kitsch, the Wolverine in this episode is the most failed one in this series, except for the attractive muscles that are getting stronger and stronger!
In the film, Logan sticks his chopsticks in the rice, and this detail of being taught by Mariko is worth pondering. When Wolverine met Japanese Bushido, what collided was not only the difference between Eastern and Western cultures, but how a mutant was nurtured in secular culture. Logan has always wanted to restore normal people, but it is not just the body that needs to be restored. What really needs to be restored is a sense of cultural identity with the secular world. In the end, the appearance of Magneto and Professor X heralded the return of the X-Men, and also showed that the secular culture was unable to accommodate mutants.
