to read This film, I think there are many shortcomings in the film, because it should be said that this film has only one or two highlights, and the rest of the film has a lot of potential for expansion. So in summary, I give this film The comment is: The film should be renamed The Expandables, so it only needs to change one letter.
There are spoilers below. Shen Jin
first talks about the shining points. The scenes of this film are very good, full of pleasure, the editing is very hard, the screen is cut as fast as a dead person, and the shaking of the camera is sometimes used a little bit, let me Lovers of such scenes are sometimes a little dizzy.
The scenes in the whole film are hard hits, except for the explosion and the explosion model (a bit obvious), they are basically not special effects, and they are all things that the old man Stallone used to play back then. Throwing knives, close combat, heavy weapons blasting (actually an AA12 with a drum, a shotgun, just like a howitzer.), a quick gun (revolver and Glock quick changer Shooting)
The essence of the whole film is Classical Gun Blazing Sequences, classic and old-brand gunfighting shots, and then selected for you in one film, and let a group of well-known tough guys perform them one by one by setting up the scenery.
Unless you are a girl who likes these muscular guys, otherwise, this movie should make you feel very boring. I expected this movie to make my girlfriend feel boring like watching me play CS, so I went with a guy Looked. So female compatriots, if you like to watch this film, it’s great, if you don’t like it, uh, this is not your problem.
In addition, the film lineup is very strong.
Although Mickey Locke, the governor and Bruce Willis did not play, they just showed a face. Even Jet Li, one of the three leading actors in the name, was beaten on the field, but there is no doubt that this is the case. The starring group of the film is considered to be one of the most powerful in today's action movies.
It's a pity that the only big name when he was playing is Jason, but he is an Englishman, and he is very unaccustomed to such a purely old American film with a British accent that he tried to cover up. For this, I think it would be nice to replace him with Vin Diesel.
In short, the price of this movie is spent on the above two points. Don’t expect too much. You will not see the wonderful love, hatred, suspenseful storyline and even some basics in the film directed by Stallone. The logic of this film is also absent.
Next, the Expandables
film started as a rescue mission, and then portrayed a small villain.
Not surprisingly, the man in the film staged a chase with the male protagonist and was knocked down. Tell Stallone who sent him to the
end of the film, he I went back to the group of friends and sat there with a cool smile, even if it was a man's friendship, it was too exaggerated.
After the rescue at the beginning of the film, Jason went to find his girlfriend, and found that his girlfriend had been with another man for the
second time, and found that she had been beaten, and then Jason went to put down the man who beat her and some of the dragon sleeves together, and I pierced this man’s basketball and told him: Next Time I See You I’ll Flat All Your Balls, where his British accent is at a glance, and I meditated on the Balls he said in my heart. ···Bolls"
these two segments are basically not very helpful to the development of the plot. It can be said that they are completely meaningless segments, but you don't think they are redundant when they are shot in the film. Why?
Because the script of this film is actually a fictitious film, I feel that the director doesn’t need a script. Just set up a scene and give a reason to stage a fight. You don’t have to worry about why Jason went to find his girlfriend. Anyway, his ex-girlfriend was beaten, Jason. Is about to stage a basketball court bare-handed 1V8 or 1v10 A
man: What do u want
Jason (English accent): Your life...
As for the big man rebellion, first of all, Stallone is going to save the heroine, so the reason to go back is already there, so the big man is not a reason to let Stallone go back, but also to stage the car chase Sequence2 + car gunfight + Jet Li was beaten second Cut the
whole If the movie is compared to a game, this game is CS.
You only use Enjoy to kill, police kill terrorists, good guys beat bad guys, or mercenaries beat the warlord of a small South American country + the former CIA defector
doesn’t need to think about it, why Want to fight? Why did we come to Dust1 and Dust2
(please ignore this paragraph if you don’t understand what I’m saying)
So the plot is purely dispensable and belongs to one of the expandables.
In addition, logically, a group of protagonists opened the door and rushed out. A group of people didn’t shoot. Several people hid in the door again. Then the villain killed the warlord. A soldier from a barracks shot at the small door. They had rifles and heavy machine guns, but no one knew how many grenades were thrown. , The grenade, like the C4 bomb, is unique to the protagonist.
Then in the hail of bullets, several roles actually see the heroine escorted nearly 3,500 meters away, so Stallone pressed the detonator, an obvious model is the thing blew up the house
blown up on the bombing
later on It’s an exaggeration. Terry Cruise took a shotgun, AA12, with his mother’s howitzer-style bursts, and bombed the concrete-enclosed machine gun tower, and it bombed two, and it’s seen from the explosion screen. , Obviously it was exploded inside the tower...
Then Jason was Xiao Li's flying knife. After the submachine gun was shot, the enemy appeared and brushed. He killed one with a flying knife, and then hit the enemy with a pistol. The bullets ended. The enemy appeared, swiped, and he had another throwing knife. Whenever he saw an enemy in a shot and he had no weapons, he would always swipe a throwing knife. Then when the enemy boss was destroyed, he brushed his stomach and was pierced by a knife. His flying knife. At the end of the film, he turned his head back again. In
this film, the protagonists have unlimited bullets. Change the magazine. The details of the shots are also super handsome, but the flying knives are also infinite...
To sum up, this film is only for the appetite of some old action movie fans. If you are less than 20 years old, watching action movies from a young age starts with movies like The Matrix. This movie is definitely not suitable for you to watch.
But if you are like me, sitting on the sofa with an adult, staring at a large 15-inch color TV and a video recorder that had been fiddled with for half an hour, this movie will definitely let you regain the feeling of the past.
To be honest, this film is not suitable for watching high-definition, shooting like Machete, using a video tape as a carrier will be more enjoyable.
4 stars is an objective evaluation. Give 10 stars to pay tribute to the 63-year-old Grandpa Stallone. After
he and Arnold leave, this kind of film will become extinct.
Finally, I don’t think this film can be classified as an action movie or a gunfight or war movie. of
this film to be classified as "Stallone film"
