The "everything" finale

This movie is the final chapter of the "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" trilogy series, and it is also the end of the legend of a generation of leaders, and it is also the beginning of the creation of a new civilization by the ape tribe... Let this ape who is "more human than human" cover everything Let's make a conclusion. The technical issues will not be discussed. The "motion capture" of this series has reached its perfection. There is no need to repeat it. I still want to talk about the core. After watching the film, my biggest feeling is that it "covers everything" - it seems that "The Ultimate Battle" has taken care of almost all the elements and aspects that can be considered. There are no absolutely outstanding highlights and "fist products" at the end... As a result, it seems that it tastes delicious after eating, but I just feel that it is not enough to eat. The most "vulgar" point of view in the Planet of the Apes series, "War of the Apes", yes! Right at the beginning. While Caesar still hopes to coexist peacefully with humans, humans keep marching into the mountains to try to beheaded, and conflicts are inevitable... With the help of the "donkey", the human soldiers come out on top, and then they are defeated by the army of apes. The collision of hot weapons is quite interesting. From the level of the "starting battle", the performance of the film is not bad. There are also core main lines that never tire of watching! Caesar embarks on a path of revenge. The colonel is determined to eradicate the ape leader who has opened his mind, so the front foot is still with his wife and children, and the warm Caesar loses his two beloved ones on the back foot, and he has to watch the enemy escape from the corpse of his relatives... ... Afterwards, Caesar went for revenge regardless of the migration of the ethnic group. He realized that he also had the shadow of Koba in him, and he couldn't resist and lingered. Indulge in landscape paintings of the times, still there! It's like half a "road movie". From the lush "Huaguoshan Water Curtain Cave", to the broken walls and ruins with withered vegetation, to the wide sandy beach in the Tianshui line, and finally to the icy and snowy fortified military village... I can't worry about Caesar's Maurice, Rocket, Luca Three Monkeys also picked up a speechless human loli on the road, and met a talking solitary orangutan. No matter how you shoot, you can make a few good scenes with good effect. Funny and thought-provoking characters, of course! Not to mention the bad gorilla stealing the spotlight. The bad orangutan's setting is quite clever. He is an orangutan from a zoo. He has been fascinated by the words and deeds of human beings. After his intelligence has been further developed, he lives like a human being: talking, dressing, seeking good luck and avoiding evil... But He was an orangutan, and he hid in order to avoid human annihilation. This strong sense of contrast and dislocation contributed a lot of jokes, and people couldn't help but think "existence is reasonable", and whether the outside world is not. There are other species of apes. There are also character scenes showing self-cognition struggling and swaying! The Colonel's base camp is simply a microcosm of a society. Among them, the most eye-catching is the "Red Donkey". The few ape tribes represented by him are willing to be the colonel and slaughter the eagle dogs of the same clan. They can spy on their own position and the uncertainty of the future... In addition, the colonel did not The ape races are slaughtered, but use them as slave labor, and then staged captivity, conflict, communication, escape, escape, etc., can also find the shadow of the collision between species, ethnic groups, camps, ideas, and beliefs. Even if it is a replica of "Beauty and the Beast" and "King Kong", there are still! The little girl Nova is simply the most beautiful bright color among the group of orangutans and soldiers. This is about a setting in this film: in the case that most of the human beings are infected and killed by a deadly virus, only a few people who are immune can survive. Now, after the virus mutates, the survivors’ brains will degenerate and eventually lose their lives. Language and thinking ability... After being beaten to death by Caesar, Nova became an orphan waiting to die. It was obviously a mistake to take her on the road of revenge. Maurice's persistence was exchanged for Caesar's remaining mercy. , and Nova's innocence has gradually been recognized by Luca and others. In the end, Nova can even become an important helper to turn the tide. On the contrary, it is the "big villain" Colonel of the film. In order to prevent the further spread of the virus, he disobeyed the order, resolutely and ruthlessly eliminated all infected people, and kept saying to the "sentimental" Caesar, "You are too much." Emotional!"... It is not difficult to find that in the film, the ape becomes more and more human, while the human is more and more animal. The irony is that it was the colonel who was so dehumanized, but in the end, he was infected by the virus by accident and became the one he hated the most... It seems that everything should be there, but why is it still not enough? Perhaps, it is this kind of comprehensiveness that has led to all explorations and efforts to become superficial. In addition, the setting of the third part is also subverted (contrary) to the tone laid by the first two parts - in the second "Battle of the Dawn", the ape tribe that thrives in the wild is already thriving, and Koba provoked During the Great War between the apes, Caesar was even able to pull out an army to stand against the humans. In "The Ultimate Battle", the ape family seems to have become a vulnerable group hiding in Tibet. The young and middle-aged people, including women and children, are counted, and the size of the ethnic group is also high. Not much more than at the end of the first part; on the contrary, human beings on the verge of extinction have appeared in a large-scale organized army, bursting with unparalleled new vitality. Therefore, the "Ultimate Battle" in the movie actually happened between people, and the ape family as the protagonist was just a vulnerable bystander. Coupled with the above-mentioned "all-round development = all-round mediocrity", the result is: I want to watch the great movie War of the Apes, but I only have the opening paragraph; I want to see the changes in the population reflect social reality, but the pattern becomes smaller; I want to see human nature Discussing good and evil, beauty and ugliness, but it turns out that the depth is not enough; I want to see the rise of the ruler of the earth in the future, but an avalanche teaches that everyone can become a "survivor" only if they can climb a tree; A member of the ape tribe... To be honest, there are still a lot of metaphors in this film, including politics, society, religion, etc. For example, in the end, Caesar dragged the injured body to the ape tribe to a new home, Some people say that it is very similar to Moses in the book of Exodus. The prophet Moses was ordered by Jehovah to lead the enslaved Hebrews to escape from ancient Egypt and go to the fertile land of Canaan. He died when he was about to reach the destination. In the end, the Hebrews got rid of their enslaved life and became the first nation in history to worship a monotheistic religion. 3: The Ultimate Battle" is obviously written by a "good student". He is round in all aspects and learns from others' strengths. At the same time, he has gorgeous rhetoric, quoted scriptures, and even wrote a lot of metaphors and hints that require a certain literary literacy to understand. No matter which individual scoring item is judged, it is remarkable, and it is definitely not a low score... But after reading the whole article, it is not easy for people to grasp the key points, but the theme and soul on the bright side. It's also a little empty and tasteless, and I always feel that something is missing. The quality is good but it's hard to shake the breath, and it has a good appearance but is not exciting. With such an ending, I really don't know if it is too conservative or too forgetful. The war movie is so addicting, but only the opening paragraph; I want to see population changes reflect social reality, but the pattern becomes smaller; I want to see human nature discussing good, evil, beauty, and ugliness, but I don’t have enough depth; I want to see the rise of the future ruler of the earth, and the result is one The avalanche taught everyone that you can only be a "survivor" if you can climb trees; even if you watch a little Loli Nova, you will simply become a member of the ape family in the end... To be honest, there are still a lot of metaphors in this film. , politics, society, religion, etc. are all involved. For example, in the end, Caesar dragged the wounded body to bring the ape to a new home. Some people say that it is very similar to Moses in Exodus - the prophet Moses was ordered by Jehovah, He led the enslaved Hebrews to escape from ancient Egypt and went to the rich land of Canaan. After more than 40 years of difficult treks, he died just before reaching his destination. In the end, the Hebrews got rid of their enslaved life. And become the first nation in history to worship a single religion...
