When "Escape Plan 1" came out, I was still very excited about such a theme. After reading it, I found out that it is the old wine in a new bottle of the escape room type, and the "Maze Runner" series is stronger than it. Today we are talking about "Escape Plan 2".
There is a causal relationship between the two films.
The first part is the story background of the second part. Stallone's company has hired new security agents. The business has expanded from testing the security performance of the prison to safety rescue. Unfortunately, this time the rescue was successful but the business failed because he died during the rescue. took a hostage. This is the rescue part where Huang Xiaoming shines at the beginning of the film "Escape Plan 2".
Everyone attributed the responsibility to his teammate, the colleague Kimbrough who infiltrated the terrorist organization undercover (this is the name translated by the subtitle team), because he developed a smart security program by himself, and violated the order in this rescue. , resulting in a 40-second delay in the rendezvous time, resulting in the death of one hostage. Kimbrough was fired by Stallone. The small climax at the beginning of the story ends here, and the cause of the entire movie story line is buried here.
Huang Xiaoming's younger brother Yusheng developed a super awesome software that can crack all computers and commands in the world. Because he applied for a patent and did not sell it to a technology giant, he was targeted by secret enemies. Embrace the guilt. Huang Xiaoming and his younger brother Yusheng were knocked unconscious in the street after attending a private party in Bangkok.
The story is divided into two parts from here, one is how Huang Xiaoming protects his younger brother, and through the experience he learned from Stallone, how to explore the prison situation, make friends, and make assumptions and the process of reasoning and verification. In the process, he knew that all this was a trap set by his former teammate Kimbrough. The computing program in the prison was the program he developed himself back then. He wanted to avenge his expulsion back then, and he also needed Yusheng's program information.
Another line is how Stallone outside investigates clues, seeks help from his old friends, and finds a way to rescue his men. In the process, after finding that the culprit was Kimbrough, Stallone arranged the rescue according to Kimbrough's thinking logic.
In the end, Stallone sent himself to prison, reunited with his subordinate employees, and with the help of outside employees, killed Kimbrough, destroyed the computing program, and escaped from the prison together. In the process, all the friends made in prison eventually became the victims who resisted the prison counterattack for them.
That's the story. It's very common and very routine. There were originally a few places in the story line that could be greatly developed, but unfortunately they were all taken by the screenwriter.
For example, the relationship between Huang Xiaoming and his younger brother Yusheng.
They are not brothers. Huang Xiaoming was brought to Yusheng's family to live together in a family accident when he was a child. But why would the two brothers be jealous of each other? The character given by the screenwriter is that Huang Xiaoming has traumatic stress, always wants to take on everything, and will vent when things get out of control, while his younger brother is very smart and has been shining brightly since childhood. He hated Huang Xiaoming because his family was poor at that time. Support one more Huang Xiaoming.
The emotional changes based on this and the sublimation when facing the test of life and death together in prison... are not, the relationship between the two of them has been taken away. In the prison, Jinbro asked Yusheng to hand over the program, otherwise he was tortured, Huang Xiaoming watched his younger brother's tortured acting... Let's tell the story, Huang Xiaoming only said that he wanted to delay time, and he didn't see any delay, nor did he Seeing how to protect my brother, this part is over.
Compared with this embarrassment, in the first part, Stallone had a good rhythm and psychological grasp when he asked Schwarzenegger to explain the location. Maybe it was because the first part was brilliant, and the second part was copied, but unfortunately he broke his foot.
In the same way, in the first part, Stallone was not allowed to rest when he was specifically targeted, and he was tortured constantly. In the second part, Huang Xiaoming took over the bridge and was tortured, tortured, tortured, and disappeared. Back to normal days.
And the logic is also flawed.
When the film opened to rescue the hostages and escaped, the terrorists shot at the truck covered with canvas, and they all hit the iron plate. The people in the car were intact, and the girl in the innermost was shot in the abdomen. The bullet was grabbing the carriage. jumped up.
When Huang Xiaoming entered the prison, whether he was drawing signs on the wall or exchanging information about the prison with the inmates, he did not consider the factors of being monitored, including the clues of the drawings of the three Romans. To set it up, in the end, when Stallone is caught in the prison, the communication will have to be interfering with the monitoring of the prison by outside men to communicate briefly. Does Kimbrough cooperate like this? Monitoring is also divided into time periods.
Yu Sheng, a scientist and an expensive company boss, knew that people outside of him were eyeing him, so he suddenly went to Bangkok to attend a private party, or was on the street, just to be knocked out and taken to prison.
When the prison police shot and killed two Romans head-on, the gunshot wounds on the heads of the two people in the camera turned out to be temples. This is the trajectory of the Assassin League that will turn.
There is also the most unreasonable one. When a group of people fled, Jinbro released poisonous gas, and a group of people climbed up the ventilation duct. As a result, the ventilation duct was more than two meters high and more than one meter wide. On the aisle in the middle of the church.
As an audience, I am shocked by Stallone's IQ. You can't find the plot after 30 minutes of searching for this entrance. Various foreshadowings say that it is the most mysterious and mysterious hell in the world...
Of course, everyone's requirements for watching movies are different. Some people are refreshing, some are happy, some are chasing idols, and some are paying for themselves... Everyone takes what they need, and I like to be a movie audience.
In fact, Huang Xiaoming is still a good person, but he is not suitable for action movies, his body is not enough, and the movements are not smooth. Moreover, the editor is not the editor of "Bourne Bourne", and he will not use fast-lens editing to express the protagonist's actions and power. It is not too rigorous to say that the movie Stallone starring Huang Xiaoming can't save, after all, the story is weak, but I hope Huang Xiaoming can make more progress and improve his acting skills. After all, he is someone who looks like my brother.
"Escape Plan 2" score: 3 points.
