But pay attention here: the key word in this sentence is not the word "wonderful", but "the same as the first two".
One, the screen.
As a film with action scenes as its main selling point, the picture will naturally always be the eternal lifeblood of "Change 3". Two and a half hours later, the action scenes are still enjoyable and bloody. The quality of the picture did not drop in any way.
However, the level has not dropped for "Transformers 3", far from enough.
If the success of "Change 1" is because the childhood dreams of several generations have finally become a reality in front of them, the success of "Change 2" is that the action drama has changed from a small experiment in the previous work to a large-scale It's a fun and enjoyable fire, so when the freshness of the "Change 1" screen has completely subsided, what means should "Change 3" use to completely conquer us on the screen?
Improvement is obvious. All the models in "Change 3" have been completely redesigned. Bumblebee's semi-transform fighting style has become more speedy. The new body design with great personality among the Autobots, whether it is a car shape with a barrel embedded or a Harley style wearing sunglasses, is a highlight. The hand-to-hand combat has become, uh... more R-rated than the previous games. Fortunately, these are only limited to battles between robots. Otherwise, if there are images of abdominal headshots, dismemberment, spinal cord spasms, etc. in the human battle scene, this movie will definitely belong to the group of "120 Days of Sodom". went to - -b. For the description of the slaughtering of human beings, the director humanely replaced the bloody scene with a cloud of green smoke, which is considered relatively harmonious. When artillery, sharp blades and even fists smash the body, and a bunch of messy parts smashed into your face, the feeling is exactly the same as the weird refreshing feeling of the lead singer's saliva spraying his face when listening to ROCK LIVE. . Very enjoyable. In addition, "Change 3" enhanced the performance of several grand scenes. The scene where the natural enemy Zen gives the leader seat on the African wasteland, the image of the collective awakening of the Cybertron Legion on the dark side of the moon, etc., are also several highlights of the movie.
However, I regret to see that many of the problems from the first game still remain in the third installment. First of all, the fighting style of the protagonist's body is too old-fashioned. After everyone has basically seen enough of Optimus Prime's momentum to block the killing Buddha and the Bumblebee jumping up and down, more people may have been thinking about it in their hearts: see what new tricks you have in this movie~~~ Very Regrettably, this one really doesn't exist... Except for Optimus Prime's addition of a flying equipment (haven't shown his face a few times...), everything is almost the same as the previous one, and the similarity is unbearable. = =. Second, the lack of non-protagonist body portrayal. When everyone is familiar with the protagonist, more people will turn their attention to the new body. It's a pity that their part is almost limited to a few glimpses of machine guns being fired in the distance. As for Optimus Prime being tied up by a few nylon ropes, the plot of the Autobots being captured collectively also makes people feel extremely inexplicable. Second, many battle scenes begin to ignore common sense and basic laws of physics. In the second half of the fire and the plot, when I watched a lot of protagonists and supporting characters toss and turn in a folded glass building but couldn't fall; when I watched as I killed N Autobots When the shock wave was beaten to death by a group of small human machine guns; when I watched SAM being thrown around like a yoyo by Starscream but was unscathed like a sacred enchantment; when I watched a group of people As the GI miraculously traversed the 180 blocks above Chicago in a dress-like glider, I couldn't control my endless tangle: The laws of physics couldn't stop Michael Bay! ! ! You can't afford to hurt the hard-working director who shoots sci-fi action scenes! ! ! Can not afford to hurt ah! ! !
As the saying goes, there are only three things. When the same picture and the same special effects have been used for three films, it is time for Michael Bay to calm down and think about how to create a revolutionary "Transformers 4".
Of course, on the premise that there is a fourth part.
Second, the plot.
I guess a lot of people would sum it up as a dud. But I don't think the word "daddy" is exactly the same. Of course, in general, the plot is not only cheating father, but also cheating uncle = =b.
The first half of the plot is still very interesting. The director skillfully connects a virtual worldview with historical facts. There is no shortage of mysterious and urgent atmospheres during the period. Incidents, investigations, and clues lead to the plot of the entire movie, which is generally very successful. But when the movie went to the second half, the plot was like a space shuttle in which the Autobots were riding, and a big collapse occurred. Let's not mention that the aliens occupied Chicago, a posture that completely copied the "Chicago War", and the nonsense of human beings to get a group of Decepticons with a few light weapons alone can make people spray it. The dog is bleeding. And the role of the human villain is simply inexplicable... As for Yu Tian enemy's bloody rebellion like taking the wrong medicine, Megatron rushed out inexplicably at the last moment and slashed Yu Tian enemy, which made people doubt the relationship between these three leaders. Is there a base or a few legs = =#.
In addition, the hilarious subdivisions that gave the movie a lot of flair in the previous work have been drastically cut in this one. This also makes the whole movie a lot darker. But fortunately, the few funny scenes are still relatively high level, and the boring performances of the supporting characters basically satisfy the audience.
In the end, the thing that makes people feel extremely brainless, tangled, and even broken is the advertisement! advertise! ! ! advertise! ! ! advertise! ! ! Her sister's overwhelming placement ads! ! ! I put up with you blatantly asking SAM to directly check the engine performance of the new Mercedes-Benz sports car on the website plus the quotation, I put up with your TCL color TV and turned into a big bird and came to shoot at SAM, I put up with you and let SAM come up Showing off the awesome Smith Barney MTEE in front of a bunch of beauties in shorts , One, sentence: "MAY I FINISH MY Shuhua MILK PLEASE?"! ! ! Do you dare to break the egg a little more, Yili Shu Hua milk? ! dare? ! dare? ! ! …
Three, the characters.
There is no doubt that the main character's acting skills have dropped significantly. The exchange of blood of the heroine can be said to be the biggest flaw in the character creation. Although the heroine is beautiful, her acting skills are really unsatisfactory. Without Meghan's hot, wild, spiritual and soul-stirring eyes, it's almost like an empty vase. SAM's performance has also become lack of new ideas, the only bright spot is probably the moving performance when he said goodbye to Bumblebee. Compared to the last show that started frantically in class, this one is really a lot worse.
Relatively speaking, the supporting role's performance is much better. Simmons played by John Turturro is still insane and funny; Dutch played by Alan Tudyk's dumb and fierce looks reveal the cuteness of this character. As for the Korean actor Ken Jeong, needless to say, MAY I FINISH MY Shuhua MILK FIRST? Enough to make him instantly change from a passerby to a super popular supporting role in China~~
General review:
Overall, I personally give the film a rating: 9.1/10. Despite its many flaws, some of which are deadly, Transformers is still one of the year's highest-quality films. Since it's an action movie, let's take a relaxed and entertaining mentality and enjoy this blockbuster at the IMAX theater on weekends~
