June 27, 2014 is a day destined to be included in Chinese film history. On this day, the summer file ushered in another film that was simultaneously released in North America. The super production, "Transformers 4: Extinction" from "Firework Shell" "Rebirth", since the detonation at 0:00, the mighty people of the Celestial Dynasty have used a desperate posture, with a firm mentality of surpassing the British and catching up with the United States, with the huge exchange rate difference almost equaling the American ghosts, setting a new record on this planet since the birth of mankind. "Overseas Box Office"! !

And this desperate momentum doesn't seem to end. In the past few days, most theaters in many big cities have sold out almost all the tickets for the show at noon. Many people began to try to exchange the movie tickets for tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. There are many couples. The feeling of seeing death and returning home is quite festive on his face, and this scene is all reminiscent of the 3D ticket shortage when "Avatar" was released. "Wherever you can make money, go where you can go" - this is the natural law of capital flow for businessmen. Knowing the Chinese is good, there is no reason for one who is willing to give to another who is willing to make money. After the accumulation of three "Transformers", Michael Bay has long discovered the hunger and thirst of Chinese audiences, so he cooperated with Pangu Daguan to move the second half of the film to China, increasing the number of Chinese actors, and created this veritable "China" Tegong" is much stronger than XX Xia's version of "only showing China to see all foreign countries deleted". And the result is that Michael Bay earns a lot of money and gets cramps in his hands. How can it not be beautiful to use Chinese money to make movies and then coax Chinese people to buy tickets? Anyway, there are a lot of Chinese elements such as Bird's Nest, Shuhua Milk, Yibao, Hong Kong's streets and alleys, and scenic Wulong.

In the blink of an eye, a month has passed, and the box office of Change 4 has grown by leaps and bounds, harvesting real money like the autumn wind sweeping leaves, killing a series of mainland box office records in an instant, and this film, which is gone forever, finally closed at 19.8 100 million, failed to reach the 2 billion mark, but increased the original record by nearly 100 million US dollars in one fell swoop, became a member of the 300 million US dollar club, and became another box office film that surpassed the North American headquarters, and China once again became the largest in the universe. ticket warehouse.

I have to say that a director who wants to do well in Hollywood must not only have excellent artistic standards, but also have excellent business management skills. Nowadays, our own filmmakers can't play with our audience, but everyone is obediently governed by an American, which is indeed worthy of our admiration. Of course, the popularity of Transformers also has a profound cultural background. After all, the imprints left by the animated version of King Kong in the hearts of the 70s and 80s were too deep, more than the various heroes and monsters under Marvel and DC. There is popularity, and eventually such a "scenery" was formed.

Going back to the film itself, there are so many flaws that it is impossible to vomit. Let’s talk about the plot first. This one still has no plot, but the last one has no plot. In fact, the two can be combined, but there is still no plot after the merger, so it is better to give up treatment as soon as possible.

As for the structure, looking at the current situation, only Comrade Firework Bei can shoot the entire series of movies with a fixed routine, and it is four consecutive movies, and each of them is a big hit. Looking back on the four Transformers, it is all a conspiracy at the beginning. Spread out, then Autobots vs. Decepticons, Decepticons vs. Autobots, Autobots vs. someone who doesn't know what to do, and it ends with Optimus Prime's philosophical narration, except every time "We will join hands with humans. A better future", in the blink of an eye, it was smashed by black-bellied humans in the next episode. Every time Shuhua milk appeared in the next episode, it became Shuhua milk, CCB, Jiannanchun, Red Bull, Nutrilite, Yibao, Zhou Heiya... . Every time there is a hero and heroine who have gone through hardships and dangers, lived and died together, and saved the world, they broke up and changed the heroine in the next episode, and then even the hero was changed in the next episode.
Come to the special effects, fireworks Beigui is the king of destruction, but the pyrotechnician is always to death. He loves to set off fireworks all the way from "Pearl Harbor" to "Changing Hearts 4". A close-up, ten years later, still unchanged.

The plot of the "Transformers" series always refers to the type of filming, editing and filming. Anyway, the screenwriter just borrowed a few characters from the original book and began to play freely. As for what was filmed in the comics in the previous cartoons, I have half a dime. relation! Like the plot in Change 3 where the planet Cybertron came to the solar system and was finally smashed, it was really mind-blowing and speechless. However, at a time when the "Avengers" series, "X-Men" series, and Spider-Man all began to closely sample the plots of comics, Michael Bay also realized the importance of fans of the original works. The act of contrasting with the original manga is a form of propaganda in itself and gives the series more lasting vitality. Therefore, with the introduction of the Creator, everyone speculates that the possibility of the Emperor of the Universe or the Five-faced Monster that may appear in the next episode is not small. The army of robotic dinosaurs headed by steel cables and the green-painted drifts that suddenly landed in the air can be seen from Comrade Michael's good intentions to the old fans. However, don't put too much hope on him. After all, he will not change the death star Michael. If you look at the appearance, he will be swept away by Optimus Prime, and then he will be reduced to a mount by the sword on his neck. The tightrope, uh... There are several petrified!

After the fireworks filled the sky, Optimus Prime left again, and the grievance between him and the revived Megatron began a new chapter. In this first round, Autobot led by 1:0. After almost sacrificing audiences in all other parts of the world, Fireworks Bei does not know if he will continue to hug the thighs of Chinese audiences in the next episode, move the battlefield to another city, and let some Chinese faces appear in the Tin Man Fist. In the gap between the addition and the hail of bullets. look forward!

    When I watched the first part, I was pregnant with my baby. My husband pressed all the clothes on my stomach for fear of scaring the baby. By the time the second child was born, I put the little guy in his grandma's house to watch with her husband. The two of us discussed the feeling of watching movies under the street lights like a funny comparison. Now you can take your kids to see the fourth part~~*^_^*

    Cool! The director knows too well how to satisfy audiences who like the series, and the exciting visual bombardment from beginning to end is refreshing and enjoyable! The Hong Kong War of Dinosaurs is very handsome, Bingbing is not soy sauce, and the fight is very powerful. Although it is different from the gentle and benevolent leader image in the original work, this time, Optimus Prime, who is like the loyal underworld elder brother Fan Er, is really impressed! And Bumblebee is still the most lovable one. - "Transformers 4: Age of Extinction"
