A hybrid of business and action

From the point of view of an ordinary blockbuster movie fan like me who doesn't say that it is too tall, it is actually a person who likes to watch special effects. From the point of view of this film, it can give between three and a half stars to four stars.
First of all, it is out of love for the subject matter itself. Even though the painting style of the whole film is a bit off-line, and there are some inexplicable irrelevance everywhere, when I saw Optimus Prime appearing, I still burst into tears... The battle scenes were also exciting, and it was quite enjoyable to watch.
The thing that makes me most dissatisfied is that the previous protagonist has been replaced. At that time, it was a pity when megan fox was replaced. As a result, the human protagonist this time has nothing to do with sam. . So the sam line is even broken. Very, very, very sorry.
Also replaced is the theme song. The previous three films were all in charge of Linkin Park. It can be said that Lincoln and Transformer have a mutually reinforcing relationship, and their styles match well. This time, the theme song of Change 4 was not replaced by Lincoln. It was replaced by Imagine Dragon, which has been popular in the OST world in recent years. I followed the trend or did not say anything. I regret Lincoln's absence, but at the same time, the OST of Change 4 did is also very good.
What makes people's impression is greatly reduced is the last half hour of filming in China, which really makes people's favorability for this film plummet. I don’t know if it’s because they are Chinese, foreigners will be more interested in watching such a Chinese scene. Maybe.
The worst part of the whole film is the human struggle in Hong Kong. I came to the theater to watch Transformers, not to see how people and people play gunfights, and almost all the implanted advertisements are in this part too. Bright. obviously. The swarming in, such a method of inserting advertisements will really cause discomfort in watching movies. I hope that future directors can avoid such large-scale blunt advertisement placement, which is really annoying to watch. That was the only time I was watching the movie when I was a little bit distracted.
Within 40 minutes of filming in China, a strong commercial atmosphere hit, and it felt like an advertisement, which was unpleasant.
But in any case, the battle of Transformers still fascinates me. Every battle is very exciting, and there are many notable points. Bumblebee's various cute sales are definitely the highlight, and it has also shaped a lot of characters. Very different Autobots, very cute.
On the human line, the theme of "all kinds of love" has been sublimated to a certain extent, and the line of thought is very correct--. .
A mediocre blockbuster.
When Transformers 1 came out, because I was too young, I didn't go to the theater to watch it. The last three movies have been watched in theaters until now, and I should still watch it when it comes out later. I'm a fan of special effects, haha.
