Four years ago, I thought "Transformers" was a movie for fans, and for a girl who had no toys since she was a child, it did not have a pre-emptive attraction to nostalgic childhood. From that movie I knew Michael Bay - oh, blockbuster director, loves wars, loves beautiful women, loves bloody Hollywood. It was only when I watched Transformers 3 this year that I realized that the series was actually a G-spot movie. Its cheap and sullenness always scratches your inner thirst for a bunch of classic elements until the harazis are flowing against the river. Sophisticated machinery, alien battles, slaughter and destruction, cool cars and beauties, apocalyptic heroes. Either one is enough to lure Chinese audiences into weekend theater seats with popcorn in their hands. As for humanistic care, it has never been a box-office thing.
Spielberg said four years ago that if there was one person who could bring the Transformers class to the screen, it would be Michael Bay. Now it seems that Mr. Mai's ballet-style sliding camera, prophet-style camera selection, and string-style speed control have made him a top Hollywood craftsman. Mr. Si said frankly that he is just a craftsman and eats craft rice. Therefore, there is a reason for the sympathy between the two great directors.
My favorable impression of "Change 3" largely comes from Shia LaBeouf, who is already familiar with him. At this time, it seems that he is no longer a silly little Zhengtai, and he has more handsome qualities in "Wall Street 2". . And the beautiful girl Rosie Huntington-Whiteley (= =), who replaces Megan Fox, is so kind and beautiful that she is very different from her sexy and enchanting appearance. I always feel that such a woman should be a bad person. ! It's neither bad nor too good! Of course, this is originally a game and a dream movie, and it doesn't need to be close to reality.
"Change 3" tells the story of a group of promising young people who prevent the demise of the human world with the help of alien Autobots. It's an old Hollywood hero story, not my type, and its ultimate purpose is to prevent destruction from happening, and all the violent elements become bleak. In contrast, I prefer to be set on the premise of the Great Destruction, and tell the story of the afterlife, which makes the cheap and ordinary details dyed with a kind of saintly tragic beauty. Sam's heroic ingredients are not outstanding. In addition to the previous experience of saving the world, this character only has the courage of the angry youth and the kindness of Qiong Yao.
"Change 3" is better than I thought, maybe the previous reviews and word-of-mouth have pulled the expectations to a minimum and I chose 2D for price considerations. It's hard to tell if the watery gorgeous shots are more the director's credit or the cinematography's heavier. Amir M. Mokri has been the DP on several hardcore blockbusters, including my favorite Lord of War. His shots have an eye-like scorching heat, swiping and sliding on this pile of sophisticated machinery before falling into focus on the subject, pulling back the entire framed beauty of the composition. The motion of the image is fully utilized.
I found that there is a good way to judge whether a movie is bloody Hollywood, which is to sleep a few times in the middle and wake up every time you can continue to watch it. The "Transformers" series attacked the fragile domestic film market with its domineering dominance from the West. The kind of healthy competition that should have been brought about by the industry insider was dispelled. No matter how many flaws it has, I still hope it will continue, at least longer than Fairy Princess.
