A few days ago, when Transformers 4 was just released, it happened that I had just arrived in Beijing. I was not familiar with my life and had a lot of chores to arrange, so the movie viewing plan has been shelved. Originally, to be honest, my heart is not very itchy, but every day there are always a few people talking about changing 4 in the circle of friends or in life, and they generally hear good comments. In this way, I couldn't hold back, I went to the front door to run errands today, and went to Souxiu Cinema alone to watch a 3-hour movie. (Tucao, why is the group purchase of movie tickets in Beijing so messed up, it is the group purchase of the theater and the group purchase of the theater line, I can't figure out, so I bought the tickets directly at the counter, 60 per piece, and I found out that Meituan came for 41 yuan. Come on, fall!)
Overall experience: the plot is mediocre, there are so many fights that the latter part is completely exhausted, and there are too many Chinese elements that the audience often plays! ! ! (The following focuses on the plot and Chinese elements)
1. Plot
1. The beginning is very chaotic - what magical fire did the villain use to burn all the dinosaurs, the sports car is carrying the beautiful girls, two young adults are collecting the dilapidated theater, a woman I went to the North Pole and saw metal dinosaurs. . . . . . Every shot seems to want to reveal the feeling of "blockbuster", which often makes people feel that this is the main line of the film, but "blockbuster" shots appear so frequently that it is not clear what the main line is.
2. In the second half of the film, Optimus Prime summoned a metal beast in order to save mankind. I personally feel that the screenwriter is too shameless. Because the screenwriter knows that simple human-to-human, robot-to-human, robot-to-robot fights will always make people tired, so when the robot fails, he calls out a huge and bad-looking metal monster! ! ! What kind of trick is this? ! Don't shamelessly keep coming up with new species to fight just because the background of Transformers is the universe! How shameless!
3. There is also the girl's boyfriend, who is very brave at first, then very cowardly, and then very brave. . . When I got on the pirate ship, I said to my dad handsomely, "You are here to help me rescue my girlfriend." drop! ! Just can't look straight. . . Is this to reflect the complexity of human nature? . .
4. The biggest highlight of the whole play should be the Decepticon spreading his virus with machine lice in the KSI laboratory, thinking that the humans who controlled the Decepticons were actually controlled by the Decepticons. Personally, I think such a reversal can actually be made a little more dramatic. It would be great if the screenplay could make people feel like they "wake up".
Summary of the plot: Very general, if there is no reputation and influence of the Transformers series, and the effect of money is removed, then this plot is completely the plot of a third-rate movie. I still insist that effects are just a plus, and that a movie is a failure if it doesn't have a good story at its heart.
2. Chinese elements. . . .
Forgive me for not being able to spit out the Chinese elements in this film, because there are too many! ! ! Moreover, rather than "Chinese elements", I prefer to call it "Chinese figure". When we talk about "elements", we are actually talking about a special cultural representation that is integrated into the work. For example, Chinese Su embroidery is added to a big brand's clothes, which makes the clothes more charming. However, the Chinese figure who changed four miles really can't bear the title of "element". Because the appearance of these things does not make people feel that they are integrated with the film, on the contrary, they are greatly separated from the film and pull the audience out of the plot! When a certain milk appeared, the whole audience laughed! When the huge red light advertisement of a certain wine appeared, my eyes were lit up and blinded! There is also Li Bingbing, I think her English is already qualified, don't expect people to speak the same as Americans, a little accent is also quite sexy, exotic~ However, the thought in my heart that runs through the whole movie is "Where is Li Bingbing going? Is she still playing?" I don't know if it's just me. . . However, her performance has generally met my expectations, and the latter is better than the former.
I beg the local tyrants in China not to spend so much money, okay? Can you still watch commercial films well in the future? . . T. T
3. The other
last words of Optimus Prime are still very good. The point is not where we come from, but the point is that we must protect the things we cherish.
Too much fighting. . . As long as it's a hero movie, there are fights, and I'm tired of watching it.
After reading it, I felt that it was not worth 60 yuan, and I almost fell asleep afterwards.
