The Japanese action/adventure/comedy film Gintama, released in 2017 and directed by Yuichi Fukuda and written by Hideaki Fukuda, tells the story of the late Edo period when aliens known as "Tenjin" attacked and the shogunate became a "puppet regime". In times like this, there is a story of a samurai and his companions happily living a whimsical life....
I was so disappointed when I saw it! Roughly made! Very boring! ManJun went to watch the movie with the expectation of "comic blockbuster", and found that he was watching a "comic embarrassing film"! Although there are some awkward chats that can make people laugh, the boring plot, poor rhythm and terrible fight scenes make people can't stand this film! Therefore, the movie advice given by ManJun is: If you are not a "Gintama fan", don't waste money and waste time watching this film!
The following "ten sentences of film review", Man Jun will comment on the advantages and disadvantages of this film, mainly to say the shortcomings of Ha!
1, first of all, the advantages. Because Manjun feels that there is only one advantage of this film, let's talk about it first! The biggest attraction and interesting point of this film is the various awkward chats and spits of the film, as well as the "laughing terriers" of a large number of Japanese classic anime involved in the awkward chats and spits - Dragon Ball, One Piece, Valley of the Wind, Parasitic Beast, Q Taro, etc., which can definitely make fans who like Japanese anime culture happy! The "junior lovers" of Japanese anime culture, such as Poison Tongue Jun, also laughed several times in the theater.
2, to talk about the film's favorite anime meme, that is, at the end of the film, even the "Live-action Version of "Valley of the Wind" with the flying machine was awkwardly chatted out, and he asked vigorously: "Is there really no problem with copyright?" Oguri even had to call out the name of the protagonist of "Nausicaa" directly, and he didn't know if it would really cause copyright problems or if it was purely for spoofing, he only shouted "Na... Card", the middle two words are directly silenced, and it feels funny when you watch it!
3, and the most interesting awkward chat role for Manjun is not the protagonist Ginshi Oh played by Oguri Shun, but a pure supporting role - Murata Tetsuya played by Yasuda Xian, his awkward way of talking from beginning to end "talking by yelling" and expression, which is a kind of awkward acting skill that is deliberately not annoying but funny!
4. The most popular supporting role for Man Jun is Shimura Myo, played by Masami Nagasawa. Maybe it's because she has fewer and more brilliant scenes in the film, unlike the main characters who have more scenes that are awkward and boring, so see her only leave a good impression and no bad impression! In particular, the "awkward reading" of her "Dragon Ball" imitating onomatopoeia for Oguri Shun was simply too funny!
5, the following focus on the shortcomings. First of all, what disappoints me the most is that this live-action version of a famous anime that brings together a superstar cast of Oguri Shun, Sugata Shoko, Hashimoto Kana, Yumi Yanagi, Masami Nagasawa, Shosio Okada, Tsuyoshi Domoto, Takayuki Yamada and other superstar casts, has nothing to say at the production level! This film in Japan is also regarded as the annual production of the public, it is actually not exquisite at the production level, but full of "rough LOW fake", there are several special effects are even more fake to burst, and even make people feel that this kind of production level on the "rough LOW fake" is the director's intention, is the director trying to form a kind of "stylization"? It is reasonable to say that everyone has also seen a lot of nonsensical and middle two anime and movies, but that feeling is definitely not the "rough LOW fake" look of this film!
6, "Gintama" this "rough LOW fake" style is also reflected in the role and performance, Oguri Shun, Sugata Shoki, Hashimoto Kanna, Okada Shosei these main characters of the performance is either too loose and casual, or deliberately exaggerated, Manjun in the movie feel that all the main characters including Oguri Shun are not colorful, none of them have a real attractive charm. I also want to say that there are many Japanese movies similar to the style of The Second Nonsense, but in terms of performance, it is definitely not the awkward and boring look of this film!
7, "Gintama" although there are some laughing stems and funny characters, but the plot of the whole film is still super boring, super procrastinating, super embarrassing, simply not like a big movie but a TV drama SP level, it is difficult for people to maintain enough enthusiasm and interest in the process of watching the movie, if there are not some laughing stems to support, really make people feel that they can't watch it! It even makes people feel that this is not a film that the director and the actor "shoot" together, but a film that is "played" together!
8. The most unsuccessful part of this film is not only the plot, but also the fight. The whole film is really a lot of fighting scenes, but there is no wonderful feeling to speak of! Especially the climactic battle at the end is even more unbearable, where is the handsome move? Where is the sharp photography and editing? What's even worse is that the ending play is actually smelly and long, and after the climactic showdown between everyone and "Red Sakura", a duel between Ginshi and Takasugi Shinsuke is arranged, which is so boring that people can't watch it! You may wish to go to see the original anime of this film, "Gintama Theater Edition: New Translation of Red Cherry Blossoms", and see if the animated version of the fight is as bad as the live-action version!
9, although the lead actor Oguri Shun said when promoting this film: "This is really a movie with no connotation." "But, how could it be! This is nothing more than a self-deprecating remark. As long as you have watched the anime version and the live-action version, you will find that these two versions will make the initial off-line nonsense comedy style eventually develop into a serious and deep style of heart-wandering + sadism, trying to sublimate at the "connotation" level! If it is true that there is "no connotation", then what is the purpose of the "childhood memory killing" that always flashes back to the three brothers? Isn't this an expression at the level of connotation? No matter how spoofed, in the end, there will always be a return to the "connotation" and "meaning", which is also a common "sun shadow routine", but the expression of this "sun shadow routine" in this film is too rigid, too deliberate, too boring, so that people have no interest in the "connotation" and "meaning" that the film wants to express!
10, not afraid of not knowing the goods, afraid of goods! In the end, ManJun would like to say that the same well-known anime live-action movie, the same is the "end of the curtain" as the historical background, the same stars gathered, there are also a large number of swordplay duel fight scenes, take the "Ranger Sword Heart" and "Gintama" compared, "Gintama" is simply like garbage! So Manjun finally just wanted to say to everyone: "If you can not look at it, don't look at it, huh! ”
Like me, retweet, like, favorite, arrange it?
