The special effects are ok, the plot is weak

Compared with the first film, this film has indeed made a lot of progress in the production of scenes and special effects, which is no wonder, because this film uses the special effects teams of "The Lord of the Rings" and "Harry Potter". Many war scenes made me feel deja vu. But there are not many new ideas, many of the ideas are moved from other blockbusters in the Middle East, such as that chivalrous mouse, isn't it "The Elf Mouse Little Brother"? The most shocking scene of the "Water Man" sweeping the army at the end was also seen in "The Mummy 2". But one thing is undeniable, these special effects are more refined and more realistic.

In terms of plot, I think that in this film targeting children, the plot is a little naive. Moreover, the cruel contents of war and killing are linked to several teenagers who are still a little childish. Is it a little out of place? In the film, the eldest sister Susan has a bit of the style of the elf prince in "The Lord of the Rings", bending bows and arrows, facing thousands of human soldiers, in danger, one arrow at a time, shooting those soldiers to their knees, Really cruel "cool" home. Even the youngest Lucy took up the dagger and killed one or two soldiers who had attacked her.

The character design of the prince was not successful. First of all, we were confused about his growth. Before the accident, whether he was a king or his uncle was a king was not explained in the film; when we learned that his father's death might also be a conspiracy, The prince went to the first task, that is, to open the city gate and go to his uncle's dormitory for questioning, which led to the failure of the entire offensive operation; at the end of the film, the duel with the king should be the prince, not 4 Big brother among siblings. So I don't think the Prince's character in the whole film is sufficiently fleshed out, he's just a vase at best.

    The eldest sister is great, there are fewer freckles. Lion, will you die if you come out early? If you have to die, you will pretend to be B Fan Er's death.

    After all, it is an adaptation of a fairy tale, and the momentum, pattern, character characteristics and storyline cannot be compared with the Lord of the Rings
