Unqualified movie full of sincerity

Is this movie good? Not good, at most it is enough to pass the line. And this movie has a major flaw that cannot be repaired from the script, that is, it is too complicated. The eldest prince looks like a bad man, but he is a good man; his uncle looks like a good man, but he is a bad man; the second prince looks like a bad man, but he is a good man; the businessman looks like a bad man, but he is a good man, not to mention the prince And the princess mainly from conflict with each other to mutual love, the plot is so complicated enough to make a TV series. I suspect that the screenwriter is an American drama writer. Is it interesting to have so many reversals?

The most direct impact of such a complex plot is that the prince has become a plot narrator: "Ah! I found it! The conspiracy of the eldest prince is like this." After a few shots, "Ah! I found it again! Uncle's conspiracy is like this." The prince needs to keep talking, trying to explain all the plot clearly. It's really hard for him. It seems that the director is also not confident that the audience can keep up with such a complicated plot in 2 hours.

In addition, the prince is also a life lecturer. A lot of big truths are thrown on your face. First, tell the second prince that brothers are united, and their profits will break the gold. Then he turned his head and said to the eldest prince, follow your heart, and finally turned to himself. Said, I should stick to the right decision, no matter the cost. oh my gosh

The plot is complex and logical loopholes are inevitable. The most incomprehensible thing is that Uncle Wang has already killed the eldest prince and the second prince. The protagonist prince, not to mention no royal blood, is a wanted criminal who betrayed the king and killed his father. It is reasonable to assume that he can successfully ascend the throne and inherit the throne. He also needs the dagger of time. What does reverse time do? Is it because I didn't have the opportunity to enjoy it before, and now I don't, so do I have to turn back time to make up for my regrets?

Despite all the obvious problems, I still love this movie. Why? There are two reasons. First of all, it is worthy of game fans. Since there are game adaptations, game fans are naturally looking forward to seeing the shadow of the game in the movie. And this movie did it beyond expectations. For example, when sieging a city, Bees explained to the prince that the city gate was opened, and the use of the matching camera reproduced the game design in which the prince would look around all the climbing routes when he entered a new scene. Others such as various parkour moves, and even wall jumping moves are shown. As a fan, what else is there to complain about? Oh, by the way, the movie also gave you a leap of faith in "Assassin's Creed", Ubisoft's true love fans. Also, although the plots are all bad, the screenwriter has obviously played games and tried to insert various classic plots of games. For example, the princess sacrificed herself to save the world, which is the plot of "Prince of Persia: Rebirth". The prince hopes that the protagonist will Using the dagger of time as a gift for myself, but was prevented by Uncle Wang from re-enacting the plot of the evil wizard in "Prince of Persia: Sands of Time" who wanted to get the dagger of time as a reward and was rejected by the king of Persia, the classic princess Farah sacrificed herself to save the prince Not to mention the plot. The dagger of time, the sand of time, and the reversal of time that I hope to see are also available. For fans, the sincerity of this movie is really full.

But the surprising thing about the movie is that it not only has re-enactments, but also plus. The designs of the Hassassin Assassination Group are full of imagination, such as manipulating poisonous snakes to carry out sneak attacks, and using the characteristics of snakes to devour to steal. The design of the Flying Needle Assassin is not only accurate and sharp with hidden weapons, but also with hidden weapons to carry out raids. The hidden weapons are suddenly placed in the dark, highlighting the cold and cunning characteristics of the assassin, instead of using raindrops of hidden weapons to fight against the enemy like in Hong Kong and Japanese movies. . The confrontation between the black flying knife man and the flying needle assassin in the later period also has the flavor of a two-man confrontation. The top hidden weapon masters fought their lives at the last moment, and both died in the end, which not only highlighted the loyalty of black people but also respected their opponents. Of course, because of the script, there were so many distinctive assassins in 2 hours that it was impossible to focus on each of them, and even the leader of the assassination team was hastily in the end, which I feel quite a pity. Oh, by the way, there is also the beginning of the bow and arrow climbing the city wall, which is also very creative.

In short, if it is only a movie, this movie is not worth mentioning, but if it is based on the love of the game, this game adaptation movie will definitely not let you down.
