There is a clear stream in the zombie film, and another wonderful flower in the World War II film

"Overlord" will not be a very good movie. In fact, anyone who has watched the trailer and looked forward to it will know that the combination of World War II and the theme of zombies is definitely not a human excavation and deconstruction. But it must be wild enough, eye-catching enough, violent and bloody enough.

If you watch this film with such thoughts, then "Overlord" is still very good, although it has an 18 rating, bloody violence and even a little bit of pornography, but you are chewing popcorn and drinking It seems to be good to have a Coke, with a film of bloody bullets flying in front of you.

I have watched many zombie movies, most of which are low-cost, and even some zombie movies have taken another path to the no return of literary and artistic zombies. To talk about large-cost zombie movies, the first "Zombie World War" is recommended. It’s the "Resident Evil" that is getting worse and worse. "Pretty Girl Squad" also has steampunk German zombies. However, no matter how the film is shot, one of the characteristics that must be highlighted for the loss of the film is: more.

Endless zombies, no matter how fast you run, you must see wherever you see, they are covered with zombies, and all kinds of games are also the same, the zombies in the zombie siege series can make you fancy slaughter like the waves, and the mighty zombies on the road to survival The tide is all rendering the word "many".

However, in "Overlord", after breaking his fingers, there were only three zombies in contact with the protagonist, but these three zombies supported the skeleton of this half-zombie film.

Not by quantity, but by quality.

The movie can be said to have achieved this point. The first mutated zombie twisted its body and made a super difficulty that has never been seen before. It can be described as shocking and shocking, making people sweat; the second zombie is chasing after him. Chasing your life at every step, even if you get a headshot without stopping, you can be described as a hero among the zombies. The third zombie is even more powerful. He abuses the protagonist and a group of people and can't kill him. It's probably what the overlord in the title refers to.

Rather than making the streets of zombies cheap, we might as well hide them, after all, we don't have much money.

The funding of this film can be described as a mystery. The stunning air combat special effects scene at the beginning is not small, but looking at the whole film, it feels that it is also the funding of an ordinary zombie film, but the film is very clever to put the modest cost on the blade. The two pseudo-long shots with special effects at the beginning and the end are more exciting, instead of making many flashy zombies, but focusing on a few plot points, coupled with the occasional horror elements and jokes interspersed in the film, it also makes this film unique. taste.

Of course, the organic combination of zombies and World War II is also a very appropriate element. The brutal blood in the general World War II movie is not surprised by the zombies, but it seems that the two seem to be created in heaven. World War II The Nazi German army is about to be involved. The Nazis mean cruel conspiracy. It seems harmless to build a zombie in the conspiracy to rule the world. After all, the Nazis can build bases on the back of the moon, ride dinosaurs in the underground world, and even the capital of Yuan Dynasty can run to modern times to play computers. Roughly, the brain hole is so wide that we all think that zombies are normal.

Regarding the regret of this film, one is that the scene is still too small after all. Although it is a good sketch, it is a bit weaker than other zombie films. The second is that the black male protagonist has some Virgins, but fortunately has the protagonist's halo. Occasionally, the Virgin is innocent. , The third is to feel the tragic experience of the German military officer. I just wanted to spend the Spring Festival with a beautiful French girl, but I didn’t want to be arrested, beaten up and imprisoned, even blown up half of my face, and finally saved my life with zombie medicine. , I was plugged in a steel pipe from behind, blown up by a gas cylinder, and blown up by various explosives. What did I do wrong? The girl is so beautiful, and if she is a man, she will be excited!

Because of the beauty, I decided to put three pictures in a row.

    Five points for the airborne scene, three points for the number of zombies, and two points for the rhythm.

    There are too many plot holes, some completely missing the basic logic. Most of the foreshadowing of the first and second acts are the brutal acts of the Nazis, and only the third act has an R-rated plot of human experiments, which is also an upgraded version of the brutal acts of the Nazis.
