Monster & Human, Who is Soy Sauce

Guido 2022-04-21 09:01:13

Compared to last year's "Pacific Rim" mecha fighting monsters, the monsters in this movie are justifiable. No matter how damaged they are, no matter how frightening they are, the monsters appear much more aboveboard! After all, it is a movie that focuses on monsters. Even if it is called out after a thousand calls, when the monsters reveal their true faces, they can really feel the theme of the movie! Because it is the main monster movie, the human role will inevitably be affected. Although the director deliberately guides the human plot to the monsters' stories naturally, it still feels more or less the soy sauce component of the human role. The plot of the movie seems to be too simple to be simple, and the simplicity of the main plot is covered up by human plots. No matter how touching or twisting the human plot is, we will not see it in our hearts, but the slightly dull and boring narrative makes it easier for us to fall asleep and forget the so-called storyline. We are looking forward to monsters, and watching monsters is also the main purpose of watching this film. No matter how the director tries to cover up the atmosphere and emotions before the arrival of the monsters, we can't feel the director's cleverness and sincerity in improving the quality of the film. The grasp and rhythm of this monster type film is a bit complicated and confusing. We just want to simply watch a monster. There is no need to use a profound human plot to set off the misfortune and sadness of the monster. What we enjoy is the monster's desire for destruction and the big scene after the disaster! Tossing about some irrelevant bastards has really lowered our expectations for this kind of monster disaster movie! Waiting and waiting finally ushered in the long-awaited monsters, and it seems that a spectacular and tragic visual feast is waiting for us! The human strikes did not show much power and effect, and the monsters did not seem to pay much attention to the human actions. This seems to strengthen the fate of being weak and vulnerable when dealing with disasters! Although the film emphasizes the positive response of human beings to the appearance of monsters, it does not seem to have the tense atmosphere of the deep film. On the contrary, the calmness of the monsters pushes the film to a mediocre edge!

The movie seems to want to follow the original book and regain the classic atmosphere of Japan, but it has changed in the film's chronological cycle so as to be more in line with the tastes and trends of modern people, enriching a very simple movie plot, delusional use of stories To impress and cover up the proportion of special effects to movies, but seems to have forgotten where the main commercial elements and audiences of such movies are? Originally, the typification and characterization made the movie the favorite of men, and the human plot was injected in an attempt to attract female audiences, which made the male audience who were not interested in the miserable and tragic plot to feel dissatisfied, and did not get the female audience. The attraction of this rough and rough genre movie! What I want to say is that the first hour is really drowsy, the second hour is too short to climax, and the ending is too rough. Although the cost of the movie is reduced, it hides the intensity of the movie! The movie invited the old white Bryan Cranston and Aaron Johnson from last year's hit American drama "Poison Master" to play the leading roles! Lao Bai, who was expected to be expected, did not let people feel his charm in Xiaoyingxun. Instead, he returned to the role of the soy sauce emperor in his early years! As for Aaron Johnson's performance, I can only say that a full-face paralysis performance does not feel a trace of the tense atmosphere in the movie! Although the director wanted to create another pair of old white and little fan in the movie, but unfortunately this is completely wrong!

For the movie as a whole, it is not as amazing as the media advertised. The movie belongs to the average level and does not feel that there is anything worthy of praise! As for creating suspense and creating an atmosphere, it's all nonsense. This kind of movie is still enjoyable when it is displayed directly and happily! Still holding a pipa with a half-covered face is only suitable for those half-dead romance films, how can it be so petty to shoot a disaster blockbuster?

However, the special effects of the movie are still very eye-catching. Whether it is the shape of the monster or the design of the scene, it is in line with the classic quality of Hollywood. However, compared to last year's "Pacific Rim", the monsters in the movie still lack a dangerous and ferocious atmosphere, and the movie doesn't feel so engaging, which is the most unacceptable part. ! Although it is a Hollywood blockbuster, with the addition of co-production and Ken Watanabe, the style of the film is still biased towards the Japanese style, lacking the usual Hollywood taste!

    Godzilla, who had been diving all the year round, was bought by a war company and turned into Fahai. I like the parachuting stage very much, human beings are indeed small enough.

    65/100, it's actually not bad. It uses the presentation method of "still holding a pipa half-covered" for Godzilla, using the night and smoke as a veil, and also has an excellent apocalyptic atmosphere, not directly but effectively shaping Godzilla's face. Image, with a certain degree of personification of the mind. Although the whole is still a Hollywood-style routine, it can be seen that the director intends to produce a little thinking and expression. Some human events are superfluous and uninteresting and silly, and if they can be dealt with, it will be very good.
