Don't talk about the box office, let's talk about the movie. It was quite enjoyable to watch, although it didn't sell very well, in my personal opinion, it was a little bit better than the first episode, and a little bit better than the second episode. The first episode was because of the first appearance, it was so cool, including the scene where he was almost at the end and suddenly flattened his body without touching the ground, and then stretched out his hand to pick up the beads of sweat. It was really classic. The second episode, filmed by John Woo, this guy is an old man and disrespectful. He is a master and he is lazy. He took out all the flower racks that he had used before, so everyone had to draw guns in an arc, and white pigeons were flying everywhere. I've seen it, damn it, it's really fucking fierce, but it can only be used once, and it won't work if you use it again. Looking back now, episode 2 was the weakest.
Where is this episode so good? The first is that the action scenes are better. For those of you who like to watch action movies, you are blessed. The foreigners are still very good at making this. Violent, especially in the scene of robbing people on the cross-sea bridge, it can be seen that both sides are fighting for their lives. Uncle Tom is not as invincible as he used to be, but he was dizzy from the fall, especially the scene where the blast wave hit the car next to him, which I think is very classic. The second is that the director JJABRAMS gave Uncle Tom as much human taste as possible. The scene where he shot his wife (of course a fake) in front of him was something that would not have happened in the first two episodes. Tom also gave his feelings to him. Enough to play.
Of course, there are also some benefits that are only for our Chinese audience, the most important of which is the location in Shanghai. I don’t know how much money was sponsored by Bank of China (maybe not, but Y occupies a good location), from the central bank to the Pacific Insurance (or Ping An Insurance? I don’t remember), the section between the two high-rise buildings is still very good. . What I'm a little puzzled about is that next, he succeeded in stealing, and he didn't explain it at all. Maybe it was because he thought it would be too vulgar to expand on this part. It's a set that would be filmed in the next three rambunctious action movies. The traffic police didn't even see it, let alone the armed police and the people's soldiers. If it was filmed in other countries, it is estimated that the tanks would all come out. Although they drove a luxurious Land Rover and followed a BMW, they were all private bodyguards, and their attraction was less than half. I guess it may be because it can be staged in China (it is said that it has been submitted to the Ministry of Radio, Film and Television for review three times), so try not to be too sensitive, this government is more vulnerable to injury, there is no way.
But that's fine. You want to make the streets full of soldiers, which is not in line with China's national conditions. From this point of view, I think this movie is a Hollywood movie that reflects the most authentic Chinese style so far. I remember seeing a "SPY GAME" handsome guy Brad Peter before, and it received rave reviews in the United States. I watched it. Shit no, you said that it is possible for the United States to build a permanent military base 130 kilometers away from Suzhou? Like the Cultural Revolution, Suzhou Street can be filled with tattered big-character posters and slogans. But it is very interesting that in the western movies I have watched, the protagonists and heroes always seem to be like a fish in water in other countries, but every time they are captured by the Chinese police or army, it seems that in their eyes, those in uniforms in China are still very powerful. I guess the city management can catch two terrorists.
Having said that, I will go on to say that "MI3" truly reflects the style of Shanghai, whether it is an alley, Zhouzhuang or Pudong financial district, it is all very real, but Uncle Tom's two Chinese words "go away" and "be careful" are really inauthentic , and there is no Shanghai accent, how can those old Shanghai understand it! The most "long face" is also the most proof that this movie truly reflects the style of China's cities. It is the license number on the white wall for a moment - it is said that it has been called "the strongest small advertisement in history". I've seen one that hasn't been mosaicked, but I can't find it, so I'll take a look at this.
The other one is the joining of MAGGIE Q. She is really pretty and speaks English very SEXY, especially when she is about to detonate that car "SUCH A NICE CAR", the nasal voice is very heavy and very provocative. Oh, by the way, the actor who played "MATCH POINT" also played a supporting role here.
In fact, what really makes this film interesting is the No. 1 PHILLIP on the back. He hadn't won the Oscar for Best Actor when he played it. Obviously, the producer's vision was very poisonous. The villain he played was really awesome, the kind of cow whose calm and coldness makes you shudder. He was not cruel or vicious at all, even if he was kidnapped by Brother Tang on the plane, he would still ignore the torture, looked straight at Brother Tang, and said word by word, "Who are you? You are dead. Do you have family, they also Dead." I still rarely see such a calm and powerful villain. The problem is that Y did what he said and nearly killed Uncle Tom and his beloved. I estimate that in the future, the number one role in the reverse side of action films will have to be played by him. He didn't scare people by being covered in muscles or psychopathic sullenness like the doctor in Silence of the Lambs, but the kind of deep boredom that calmly said: Oh, you're so annoying, I'm too lazy to care about you , so just chop you up.
To talk about the shortcomings, there are also, Uncle Tom is too old, it is not suitable to always act in this kind of movie that combines thousands of favorites, so many bells and whistles are like toys in the hands of children, which do not suit him. The oldest problem is that the plot is not easy to understand. This started from the first episode, and the same is true for this episode. I still haven't figured out what the top secret thing about that rabbit footprint or rabbit shit is. But who cares, everyone is watching him run, jump, kill, set fire, run for his life, and things explode around him.
