selfish and selfless

Well, the title of this time has nothing to do with movie reviews. I'm not good at naming names.
I really like this kind of big production, but despite the existence of this buff, I'm still very dissatisfied with this movie. First of all, it's the music. Who really deserves it? The music is so bad, especially the music of the war scenes, it is completely out of harmony. It does not require war music to be magnificent, but it is too mismatched. It sounds very abrupt. I think this is a very big failure. , and even the ending that usually gathers good music is extremely bland, just like the movie itself...
I was looking forward to this movie very much at first, it looked very strong from the preview, and then I heard people say it was terrible, I don't believe it, but it still greatly I lowered my expectations so that I wouldn't be disappointed after watching it,
but the actual result is still the same.
I will not say anything about the plot if I am greatly disappointed. Let's talk about the characters. I find that there are very few people who like this movie. Disgusting, especially the selfish heroine, and the very, very selfish male lead. The King of the Sarks felt good at first, but it was a little uncomfortable when he declared Carter as his warrior on his own, so he adjusted to be friendly.
The most popular is the daughter of the king of the Sacks. She is very kind. From the beginning of stealing the baby to being punished for the male lead, she has been hardworking and never complained. In the end, she just got a share of soy sauce. It's really selfless. People always stand in the back silently and work hard, and then selfish people stand in the front and steal all the glory. The more I go to the back, the more I hate Carter. I completely ignore her safety and only care about my
cute alien puppy. It is also a soy sauce, although it always plays a key role. When I see the male protagonist in the boudoir, I hate Carter even more. I don't care about the safety of others, and I also rob
Mark Strong of other people's alien puppies. This time, he is really personable. This enemy is really hated. After he caught Carter, he kept telling him stories and reasoning, but in the end he didn't know what his most basic purpose was.
The movie scenes were not very exciting. I wanted to give 3 stars, but I gave 4 stars because of the willingness to invest in special effects and the Sacks

John Carter quotes

  • John Carter: Fifty millions miles apart, and no way to bridge the gap, no way to return my body and my soul to their true home. Like a fool I'd thrown away my medallion. Then I recalled Matai Shang, his knowledge of earth, of my history. It mean Therns were a presence on this world, the cave in Arizona was proof. There might be other such proofs, other Thern way stations hidden all around the world. I knew now what the cave of gold must be used for. So for ten bitter years I searched, on the trail of rumor and legend, I fared it out every possible evidence of Therns, but I found no medallion. And then it came to me. And once it came, there were many plans I had to make in secret. I could trust no one else. I had long suspected that the Therns were following my movements. Now you'll understand the cause of my sudden death. The reason for my bizarre funeral instructions. Why the door can only be opened from the inside. For if my body dies on earth, then my copy dies on Mars. You are the key, this is the task I entrust to you along with all my fortune. Protect my body, the Therns will attempt to destroy it. In the time it has taken you to read these pages, they may have already done so.

  • Edgar Rice Burroughs: I am the key. I am the key! I, Edgar.

    [he looks for clues on the mausoleum door]

    Edgar Rice Burroughs: Ed! E... D!

    [he presses the letters E-D in 'Inter Mundos' engraved on the mausoleum door, but nothing happens, frustrated Burroughs takes out the telegraph Carter had sent him and reads]

    Edgar Rice Burroughs: 'Dear, Ned'. He never called me Edgar. He called me Ned!

    [he presses the letters N-E-D in the 'Inter Mundos' engraved on the mausoleum door and the door opens, Ned is shocked to discover his uncle's body is missing, Matai Shang appears behind him, about to kill him, but Carter appears and shoots him]

    John Carter: Hello, Ned.
