The success of the last episode lies in telling the superhero dream of an otaku in a self-deprecating tone, a high school student with no talent, without the wealth of Batman, without the superpower of Spiderman, and even in the sequel, there are still several street gangsters. They can't figure it out, just relying on their blood, wearing a hood and wanting to punish the evil and punish the traitor, such a heroic road is destined to be tragic. This led to a series of jokes in the previous work. After all, heroes with extraordinary talents such as Super Killer are rare, and it is difficult for ordinary people to become superheroes. It is this unique vision that makes this unique superhero movies. The sequel, however, has become a collective carnival of civilian hero dreams. Uncles, aunts, comrades, and chubby dudes can easily beat bad guys. The result of excessive romanticism is vulgar and boring, and the highlights of the previous work have disappeared.
The sequel tells a slightly cliché story. Both King Hai Bian and Super Killer encountered "growing pains". Like most parents, their parents also want their children to be good children, study hard, and find a good job in the future. , get married. Simply put, it is to live an ordinary life. Being a superhero is as unrealistic as the outlandish dreams of many young people. I don’t know when, our society has a deep-rooted concept that ordinary people are normal people, and people with extraordinary dreams are abnormal. This concept, which is highly praised by parents, has finally changed countless teenagers with dreams. Become an office worker who rushes to life every day. Just as King Kippie said in the final showdown, "We want to do good things," the villain said, "No, people want to win the lottery, they want to go to Scarlett Johansson." In reality, most people finally succumb to reality and become ordinary and vulgar people.
The super-killer girl in the movie was attracted by the dreamy campus life, while King Hai-bian was "influenced" by his loving father's hard work. However, people with extraordinary hearts are destined to be unable to integrate into the world of ordinary people, and the hero complex in their bones has never really disappeared. In the end, it is no surprise that they put on battle clothes again, police evil and punish traitors, both returned to their true self and continued their own hero dream. This is "Kai Bian Wang 2", an old-fashioned story about choosing a life path, seasoned with violent B-level film elements, which is enough for me.
Finally, let’s talk about the actors. The male protagonist is obviously covered by the light of the female protagonist. Many people complain that Chloe Moretz has changed from a little girl to a little girl. Chloe Moretz's super-killing girl has fully proved her acting skills. And the former king of comedy Jim Carrey played this sad soy sauce, which made countless old movie fans sigh, and the past is no more!
