aside, let's not talk about the quality of the film, just the gathering of so many tough guys on the screen is enough to make fans who love action movies bloody, and this also proves that "The Expendables" is a commemorative film that has more significance than comprehensive quality. Vegetarian movie. The so-called commemorative film is actually to make the audience's long-awaited dream come true. Just like "Kung Fu King" two years ago, in order to realize a dream of the audience, it made two Chinese kung fu superstars abruptly. Pinch a fight. And when commemoration trumps everything, logic can be ignored for a while and boiled down to adrenaline.
However, the strong cast of "The Expendables" did not fall into the quagmire of Hollywood commercial fast food movies and thus affect the overall quality of the film. Stallone, who also serves as the editor and director, can be said to lead a group of action superstars this time. A beautiful comeback to feast for the eyes of action movie fans.
First of all, the rescue of the hostages at the beginning of "The Expendables" shows a fierce and fierce style, and then brings out the story clues of the members of the Expendables. It's amazing to watch the joking between the main characters, and it makes people laugh. Under the arrangement of Stallone, these action superstars who have been with us for many years have sparked a lot of sparks in many rival plays, which makes people look full of interest, but also makes people miss the era of drifting away. Therefore, this is not only a hot action movie, but many literary dramas are also interesting. For example, the self-deprecation of Stallone and Jet Li, the humor of Statham and Locke, and the gathering in the church of the legendary three giants make the film even more sarcastic, somewhat a heroic sigh. After all, the average age of the actors in the film is 52.5 years old. When you see Stallone's rough hands and the vicissitudes of life left on his face, the whole film shows some sadness. Because you realize, The Expendables might be the last fight for these old guys.
Of course, the action scenes of these old guys are the most anticipated part by fans. Now 64 years old, Stallone's sword is not old, and he is still able to control a big production with ease. Therefore, in the movie "The Expendables", he can still present a super shocking scene with his unparalleled qualifications and rich experience, and reproduce the momentum of pointing the country. In "The Expendables", he presents action scenes in various forms, making the whole film a masterpiece of traditional Hollywood action films. Not only bullets, knives, explosions, chases, hand-to-hand combat and other action elements are available, but also heavyweight weapons such as planes, tanks, and cannons can be put into battle. As a result, the screen burst into flames and roared loudly for a while. Stallone completely created a thrilling and bloody image that was as popular as "Transformers 2" and "Special Forces", in line with the commercial blockbuster of this era. all features. The team headed by Stallone seems to be proclaiming that the lone hero is not too late, and the action legend continues.
Compared with the innovation and upgrading of action scenes, the plot appears to be "old". Although the film follows the pace of the times and is created according to the tastes of current movie audiences, it is still set up in accordance with the traditional Hollywood action film mode. Therefore, there are inevitably many old scenes from the peak of Hollywood action films in the last century. For example, the members of the death squad can basically act as a guard, and the bullets seem to go around him; and whenever a character is in danger, someone will always come to the rescue and other stereotyped things. It can be seen that Stallone is in the Play the nostalgia card. However, all this is very familiar, because you know, the traditional action movie era that once ceased to exist and was replaced by a large number of CG special effects is gradually reappearing at this moment, so the excitement in my heart suddenly rises.
Witnessing these tough guys who are still active on the screen in the summer of 2010 fighting the ultimate battle of action movies, in addition to accepting the excitement of hot images, I feel a touch of emotion in my heart. Because, they will always be heroes that are difficult to replicate in the era of action movies. And "The Expendables" is a bullet that pours all over the place, it is a sturdy thing that needs no explanation, and it can also be a visual shock.
