Preface
In other words, the competition for movies in this year's summer file can be described as extremely fierce, and all major themes are on the battlefield, only what you can't think of, and there is nothing that filmmakers can't do.
In addition to the common family, love, crime suspense, and anime, there is also a costume war type film.
It can be said that this year's summer file is really crazy!
No, even Jackie Chan himself couldn't sit still, and came to compete for a seat in the summer file with his new movie "Legend".
It is said that the plot in this film not only continues the past and present life of "Myth", but also uses AI to restore the 27-year-old Jackie Chan.
As soon as these words were spoken, it can be said that the audience's appetite was satisfied, and the box office of screenings and pre-sales alone exceeded 30 million, which shows that this popularity should not be underestimated.
But as more and more viewers watched it, word of mouth also came out, and the audience's evaluations were all "ugly", the plot was too bad, the AI was too fake, and the action was poor, which was completely incomparable with "Myth".
What kind of plot caused the audience to complain so fiercely?
The plot is awkward and patchworked, and I can't bear to read it
According to the audience who watched the screening of this film, it is really difficult to comment on this movie, it will be good and ugly, and the good thing is that the fighting part is very exciting, and the audience is so cool that it even feels like returning to "Myth".
The ugly thing is the plot of the whole movie, pieced together, I really don't have the desire to watch it at all, the one sitting in the movie theater is like sitting on pins and needles, and finally I can't bear to watch the whole film.
It's not a little embarrassing, I've never seen a costume war film, and at the beginning, let the male and female protagonists who just met sit together and talk about the boring topic of "like dandelions or not", it's really embarrassing for the audience to pick their toes.
Let's just say that there are really no other lines to say, this sentence has never made netizens understand its meaning.
After that, it was the heroine (Nazha) who inexplicably began to dance her sword in a bunch of flowers, this confusing plot is really a bit incomprehensible to the audience, and it is estimated that there are a bunch of question marks on her head at this moment.
Just look at this Nazha dancing with her face covered in the flowers, beautiful is really beautiful, but it is the five-cent special effect behind her, which really makes the audience a little dramatic, this special effect is really not as good as Nazha's beautiful face, it's just blind.
Then there is the scene of the rescue of the Huns, this paragraph is really funny, that is, this villain can't move a step to the side when shooting arrows, and he has to turn around with the whole trick.
What's the matter in the end, the show off skills are show-off, and the people are gone, this is not "losing the lady and breaking the soldiers", just caring about the cool action, and the people are useless without the previous flowers.
This paragraph is for people to watch, I thought it was a funny drama, but I didn't see the excitement of fighting on the battlefield at all.
What makes the audience speechless the most is that in the film, the protagonist was poisoned, and no one followed him when he went to get the antidote, and no one took care of him when he came back, lying on the ground for a long time, that is, is this really the protagonist, I don't know, I think it's an unimportant supporting role.
It's so overwhelming that some people can't help but complain: This plot is completely patchwork and imitates the plot of mythology.
Due to the headline revision, it only takes 5 seconds to unlock it halfway, and it is not easy to create, thank you!
Martial arts movies are not like martial arts, feature films are not like stories, and the battle scenes are also dealt with there, I have never seen a few people deal with tens of thousands of people, and I left the scene after watching half of it, I really can't stand it a little.
Some people even preached: How dare you release this quality film, I want to play with my mobile phone in the first 10 minutes, it's ugly to death.
It can be called the "worst film of the year", there is no one, if it is not a minimum score of 1, I really want to give it a score of 0.1.
Of course, in addition to the plot causing many netizens to complain, it is not enough, the AI and the actors' acting skills have made the audience scold.
The AI face is too fake, and the actor's acting skills collapse
It stands to reason that the technology of AI should be very OK in these years, but in this film, it really makes people feel the low-level technology, especially making people play, and the audience is too spicy!
That face doesn't feel like it's on the same layer as everyone else, and even if you look closely, the big brother Jackie Chan after this AI actually has a little shadow of Zheng Yecheng, which is not like him at all, and it looks 100,000 unnatural in the lens, so I can't say it.
Just this point, the audience complained that the body was incomplete, and all of them were saying: The person who looks at the AI face is really embarrassing, and it is just a waste of my time, so fake.
In addition, the acting skills of the actors in the film can't support this gorgeous scene, it is a state where all the staff are not online.
The first is the heroine Naza, who really can't support the heroine's aura at all, her face is very stiff and sluggish, it's really uncomfortable to watch, if you really want to praise it, it's beautiful, and there's nothing else.
is not only the heroine's acting skills, but Zhang Yixing and Peng Xiaoran's acting skills in it are also not as good as one, I can only say that this film is wrong in the casting from the beginning, and it is no wonder that the audience who watched the film complained about it.
Of course, in the whole film, there is not a little surprise, there are still some, that is, the appearance of Kim Hee-sun in the ending easter egg in "Myth", which really brought the audience an unexpected sense of surprise.
It's a pity that she only has one line in it, and it's not the original voice, but the dubbing, and the audience complained: "Sincerity is not enough", and the lip sync doesn't match.
It seems that the film "Legend" really brought "great hope" to the audience before, and the "big disappointment" after watching it still needs to be improved and improved.
epilogue
But on the whole, although there are a lot of viewers complaining, the box office still looks okay at present, and I look forward to bringing some unexpected surprises to the audience when it is officially released later.
But if you want to continue the peak of "Myth", it is estimated that it is a little difficult, after all, "Myth" is irreplaceable in the hearts of many audiences.
Do you have any other thoughts on this?
