Talking about the film, the overall impression is good, because the rhythm is fast, the huge waves start in about 10 minutes in the opening, and then it sinks. Several protagonists start their escape journey, and then the climax continues. The complex structure has made the protagonists suffer, it is water, fire, and electricity, which makes people nervous to death, and sensory stimulation is achieved.
But after watching it, I think quietly, it makes sense that this film has a score of only 5.6 on IMDB. Looking at the Cast of this film, there is no big star who can do it. This kind of film is also a disaster film. What do you rely on? win? By human nature! What do people watch when they watch disaster movies? Many people are watching the scene, but what the real fans see is the touching effect of the various conflict films of human nature stirring each other when the disaster strikes! But watch this movie? Have we found this touch? Have we ever seen a place where our heart skips a beat? no. The 99-minute time-shortened director's leeway prevented Wolfgang Petersen from being able to play out the portrayal of the characters and the conflict between human nature in "The Perfect Storm", making the film "inside the Poseidon". Adventure", not only does not have a group portrait of the passengers when the disaster comes, there is not even a character with a personality, which is simply incredible. From the perspective of this character portrayal, this film is considered rotten, and the only one that is possible The brilliant place is the very vulgar "bridge": the father died on behalf of his daughter's lover, and he brought happiness to his daughter, but he also brought it in a hurry (Bruce Willis also did it in Armageddon, but look at how they took it! ), it seems that I don’t even bother to stir up sentimentality, so please don’t do that, Mr. Peter, spending an extra 5 minutes here can improve the grade of a movie.
Some people want to compare this movie with the Titanic. In my opinion, there is no comparison at all. First of all, the length is too much, which makes it impossible for "Poseidon" to shape the various behaviors of many passengers in a crisis. and the humanity behind it. Secondly, "Poseidon" is not a traditional disaster film at all, it can only be said to be an escape film. This kind of plot limited to a limited number of protagonists greatly reduces the shock. Third, the music is far from good, so let's not mention this. After all, it is a bit unfair to compare the master-level works of such master-level figures as James Horner with others.
Finally, summarize: "Poseidon", is it exciting? Exciting, can you watch it? Can see, see the second time? Never!
