From anticipation to disappointment, to thinking.

When the trailer came out, I was still looking forward to it. For so many years, it is quite rare for action movies with women to be really successful.

An action movie that both men and women can appreciate, even if it is a cool action movie, it is also exciting.

Unfortunately, it is the old saying, the most exciting is in the trailer.

From the appearance and performance, Blake Lively has considerable potential, and Sialon is old after all.

From the performance, what Blake Lively did is acceptable, but the rest of the film is hard to say.

Recalling empathy is not that it cannot impress the audience, but first of all it requires a relatively high skill, and secondly, even if there is, it is part of the audience.

And this film is not only a memory, but also an intermittent memory. The experience of the heroine is gradually explained during the interspersed film. But this is not a detective film or a suspense film, not a clue to a case, a series, or a literary novel. There is no such explanation. Necessary.

For most audiences to understand the protagonist’s pain and identify with the protagonist, a simple narrative is quite necessary.

Coupled with the initiative to remove the female label from the clothing styling, and the emotional expression that does not follow the classic on-site feedback, it is difficult for ordinary audiences to empathize with the heroine, and all the heroine's behaviors and choices become lack of persuasiveness and no sense of substitution. .

From the setting of the script, the heroine is not as cool as "Dragon Tattoo Girl". It is very ordinary, has no special features, has a thin role, and lacks attractive charm in all aspects.

Attempts to increase the sense of substitution of ordinary audiences with ordinary images are in most cases pseudo-propositions. They are truly ordinary with no characteristics at all. They are not ordinary that the protagonist needs. The protagonist is the kind of "ordinary family".

Coupled with not-so-exciting action scenes, it is inevitable that the box office will lose word of mouth.

Among them, the stage of learning to swim, which shows the heroine's perseverance, is quite impressive. The heroine's state is exhausted in long-distance running, can't swim, and the weather is cold. In this case, she suddenly enters the water and swims a considerable distance while learning. Anyone with experience knows that this is suicide.

In fact, the men's wear of Bree Cleverly is quite handsome, with the classic men's image as the protagonist, the background is derived, and a cool simple action film is made, even if it moves closer to the rapid pursuit series and becomes a rich man. For the female version, the box office will be much better, and the audience will also like it.

If it's so handsome and cool

For example, women who came from the upper class and were interested in college days were mostly third place in the UFO Olympics. The family changed, they were affected by terrorist organizations, or they were specifically killed for some reason. They funded secret organizations like "Ghost Attack" and were discovered by terrorists. , Deterrent killing, the whole family. Missed the heroine who was dating Xiaoxianrou?

Many female directors habitually deliberately remove the female label and are not friendly to both male and female audiences. The typical Harley Quinn...

The best way to emphasize feminism is not to come up with an omnipotent male master born in MI6, especially Jude Law, who is quite popular among women born in the seventies (age group of female directors).

The heroine only needs to rely on her own learning ability, and previous skills (Olympic third runner-up), montage fast learning, play the strengths of shooting, and avoid physical weaknesses.

Picking up the sealed game gun, although the actual combat ability is weak, but he is handsome, like having long blonde hair.

Then there are counter-kills against terrorists one after another. In the middle, a two-meter tall man can be arranged to suppress the heroine. The whole body of bulletproof equipment step by step closes, grabs the gun, shoots the fly, and approaches again, showing like a gorilla. Physical advantage, coercion, but never scratch your hair! Suddenly the heroine took out a mini gun from her underwear, headshots along the gap, and exploded, in a tragic or humorous way.

Then the sequel 234 can be released.

Not too politically correct, the large-scale rifle association advertisement promotes the consumption of guns by young women...
