After two years, the filmmakers finally confirmed the appearance of the sequel, and fans were eagerly waiting for a whole year. The result is exactly as the Chinese saying goes, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. The latest episode of "Kai Bian Wang" continues the story of the previous episode, focusing the main plot on the plot of the villain's revenge, while the previous discussion of heroes and bears has become a foil.
The former "Kick-Bian King" is so charming because it shows the public a bad boy's dream. In reality, people's selfishness reminds themselves that they should protect themselves in times of danger. Heroes are a beautiful dream in comics, and they are too far from reality. But even so, people still yearn for heroes.
After going through a series of reverie of tall, handsome and rich, "Kai Bian Wang" makes the hero no longer just brilliance, he is like the boy next door, and he will appear at any time. Moreover, the hero is not achieved overnight, it is tempered by a strong heart and a durable body. This brings hero-hungry people one step closer to their expectations. The geeky spirit in the film makes the geeks crazy. In the case of the scarcity of this subject matter, "King Bian Wang" is like their rare treasure.
However, the situation of "Kai Bian Wang 2" completely deviating from the topic makes 1 look like a straight-forward accident, and the hero shape without the geek spirit has been reduced to a cosplay character that resembles a street performer.
Don't say that a group of people who wear anime costumes to maintain "justice" on the streets are geeks, the director didn't take their passion seriously at all. The deeper the plot develops, the more they are like passers-by who like to join in the fun. At most, at the end, when they fight with the awkward idiot villain, they will gather soy sauce again. The reason for the fight is personal hatred, and there is absolutely no justice at all.
To make matters worse, the director tried to instill the troubles of youth in the heroic dream of the poor boy. This superfluous action, instead of adding luster to the plot, made the story more boring.
Unscientific return to reality is another killer that destroys the overall beauty of the film. The pictures of several beautiful girls vomiting and diarrhea in the cafeteria are not good-looking, or even disgusting. The contrast with the heavy taste in the audience's consciousness is too great, and it will only scare people in the end. In addition, the way of revenge by means of destroying the image is also not "super-killing women", which vividly strips the audience's good impression of the heroine.
As for the bad boy, it's always the bad boy. The progress of kung fu does not mean the progress of thinking, because of his stubbornness and stupidity, his father died in the hands of an idiot with a distorted personality.
Blind sense of justice and powerless justice behavior make it impossible for the film to be saved. In particular, the personal feud with blurred boundaries between pros and cons weakens the image of a hero. There is no sense of justice in a fight, just like a child playing a house, and it will be fine after the fight. In the end, adults (policemen) are required to clean up the mess. The two heroic-looking protagonists are more like children who have done something wrong and fled the scene. They are still not convinced.
Adding to the film's tragedy, the children entered puberty two years apart. The killer Loli, who has fascinated thousands of otaku, can't stop the pace of growth. The handsome and handsome guy in "Anna Karenina" before is speechless in this film.
The shape of the self-destructive image is matched with unreasonable violence, and finally embellished with an unintelligible plot. "Kickstarter 2" is like a castration film that has been tampered with, walking on the dead end.
