Time Network News Success is the guide, and the defeat is also the guide.
The zombie action movie "The Master of Death" easily became the hottest Netflix movie of recent times because of Zach Schneider's signature. But also because of the fans' high expectations of Za Director, the film's groove point has been multiplied, and "The Master of Death" may be a more disappointing work than "Love, Death and Robot Season 2".
The director, screenwriter, producer, and cinematographer are shoulder to shoulder, plus his wife is also a producer, Netflix only gives money, and the director has achieved a "wayward" zombie blockbuster.
There are too many loopholes and slots, and how many pits have the director who just completed the "Justice League" director cut this time? The new time to spit on the conference to take stock for you.
By the way, we also tried to force the director to explain some of the audience's doubts, but gave up halfway through... We're still looking forward to the director's cut to explain these issues.
Forced to explain the za guide a wave, and ended in failure (old sheep)
1. Sanada Hiromasa is a casino owner, asking Batista to team up to get back $200 million, why not tell them the vault password?

I heard you knew the bomb was coming from watching TV? (Sheep)
1. Seeing that the US military is going to launch a nuclear bomb, this should be the last squad that can perform the task for Sanada Hiroyuki, why does Sanada Hiroyuki believe in Batista so much, this brother has nothing to do except a little bit, and the other people in the team Sanada Hiroyuki do not know, why is it so desperate?
2. Sanada Hiroyuki is not so bad money, directly to Batista: Cut me a zombie head back, give you 200 million US dollars, isn't it good? If the task had just been to cut off the head, it would have been successfully completed long ago, right? Just playing?
3. Sanada Hiroka moved his lips, and if he didn't pay a deposit, Batista believed him? The probability of this kind of thing being fooled is very high, right? And Batista recruited a team just by writing a blank cheque, is it so easy for Americans to trust people?
4. The locksmith claims that if there is one person in the world who can open the door of the "Twilight of the Gods", it is him, Batista, so lucky? Just look for it and find a big god?
5. Sanada Hirogeno promised to give Batista 50 million after getting $200 million, and the contractor Batista prepared 15 million for each of the core members, and the others for each of them between 2 million and 500,000, and the allocation amount was confidential. The point is, the $200 million in the vault is cash, and those who can only get 2 million to 500,000 yuan will not be confused when they see so much cash? Why can I only divide so little?
6. Sanada Hiroyuki claims that there is a no-fly zone, Batista they entered within a few hours of the nuclear bomb came, indicating that there have been no troops around for a long time, and they have been tricked? Helicopters flying into the speed of battle are not fragrant?
7. How did Batista know the nuclear bomb was launched early? The answer is to watch TV in a casino. On such a dangerous mission and do you have time to watch TV? And I happened to see the news. What if they didn't watch TV? Directly destroyed by a nuclear bomb during the celebration?
8. The zombie tiger is obviously stronger than the zombie king, how can such an important character eat a person and disappear? Isn't it nice to end up with a big fight with Batista? Special effects budget spent ahead of schedule?
9. Can zombies still have children? All turned zombies still thinking xxoo?
10. Why did Batista's daughter do a headshot when she hit a zombie? Practiced? Gifted?
11. Aren't the blacks of the Chainsaws The Best Brothers of Batista? After he and the locksmith were left behind, how could Batista not think for a second to go back and save the brother? Only care about your daughter? Don't talk about righteous people?
12. In contrast, the female "coyote" is too righteous, right? At that time, she threatened the zombie king with the head of a female zombie, and she had every chance to get on the plane. Be sure to make sure battistas have only been acquainted for a few hours? In love with him?
13. After the Negro and the Locksmith are blocked by the Zombie King, shouldn't their first reaction be to hide in the vault? Also 1v1 heads-up, where does the confidence come from?
14. Can a person locked in a vault open the door? If the vault door ended up being blown open by a nuclear bomb, why were the negroes okay?
15. Sanada Hirokashi arranged why did the traitor lock the escape passage of the vault, at that time, others did not kill him, ah, is not the chance of survival with the team is higher? I don't see that he has any exquisite plan to escape alone?
16. Knowing that you have to face so many zombies, can you prepare some effective equipment in advance? The Zombie King knows to wear an iron helmet, and The Batistas can't wear a bite-proof sleeve?
Who did the "Virgin" daughter save by tossing and turning? (Part 8.5)
1. The pre-plot story and character building are too long, the rhythm is delayed, and the plot takes nearly a third (50 minutes) to form a team to succeed and start the adventure. The thrilling suspense of the opening chapter hoisted the appetite, the MV picture is also amazing, but the dinner is delayed. In such commercial genre films, the distribution of literary drama and martial arts drama is somewhat out of balance, including the buffer transition after each action scene in the film's subsequent stages, and the character dialogue arrangement is too long and lengthy, weakening the tension created before and after.
2. The most thunderous place in the plot, which is also the most criticized, is undoubtedly the line of Batista's daughter. Because of the rescue of friends in the quarantine area, on impulse, the Virgin Mary was heartbroken, regardless of the danger to life and personal ability to join the team. Acting quietly and alone in the middle of the way, making people confuse the logic of their action lines, which is completely not the rational judgment of ordinary people. If these are reluctantly acceptable, then there is no shot of her caring about the life and death of her friends after the end of the plane, which makes the whole motive of the character inexplicable.
Perhaps, from the beginning of Batista to meet the daughter's arbitrary requirements, the middle of the conversation with the daughter to open their hearts, break through the misunderstanding, and finally sacrifice themselves to protect the daughter, the father-daughter relationship that runs through the whole film can not help but remind people of some emotional reflections of Zadao's real life. However, because the character modeling is too thin or even "brainless", such entrained smuggling is not too strongly moving.
3. The two-stage sacrifice rescue is puzzling. One is the unlocked man who sacrificed his life to save the black brother, in the case of the original opportunity to escape, but did not hesitate to give up his life to rescue a friend who had just met and whose friendship was not deep; the other was the coyote (white short-haired woman) to save the male protagonist Batista, who originally had the opportunity to leave the queen's head and take a plane to escape, but finally chose a person to fight the zombie BOSS. Such a temporary team, which is mainly maintained by money, saves companions regardless of life and death, and is confusing when there are other ways to survive.
4. The real purpose of the undercover who created the internal troubles is to take the queen's head back to the boss behind the scenes to do research, why the action has not been obtained at the beginning, it will frame the team members and weaken the power of the human side. If it is impossible to let people know his purpose, then why did he take the queen's head and then tell the coyotes of the action secretly.
In addition, since the action is so important and the boss behind the scenes is also very powerful, why did he only install his own undercover agent, and at the beginning only appointed Batista to complete it. The background of the initiation of the forces behind the scenes is unknown, and the personnel equipment is not bright, but the zombies representing the villain are a bit fresh. Unlike the brainless zombies of the past, they have self-awareness, like humans, there are classes, hierarchical, management and command, and the top can even reproduce themselves.
5. In summary, in order to cause conflict, the screenwriter has to arrange for characters to join, the team is built in pieces, in order to create tension and empathy, some logical details are forcibly placed, for conflict and conflict, deliberately create a sense of drama, and finally presented as a clichéd and logically confused farce.
In addition to the stylized picture composition with hazy artistic texture, the interspersed soundtrack, as well as the modeling design and some action scenes of the zombie kingdom, the corpse of the dead horse, the corpse of the dead tiger, etc., there is not much praise for the bright spots.
