The topic of this April movie seems to revolve around the old and beautiful ships. Following the "Titanic" in "Titanic 3D", there are battleships such as "Missouri" in "Battleship". The release of "Titanic 3D" allowed new and old fans to relive the tragedy of the "Unsinkable Legend", and "Battleship" is a typical Hollywood sci-fi war movie.

The theme is still Hollywood's old-fashioned human war against aliens to defend the earth. Of course, Hollywood's screenwriters are familiar with this type of film. Establish the eternal theme of defending the earth, and then show off your skills on the scene. Most of the time Hollywood's sci-fi scenes are still guaranteed to a certain extent. Of course, there are also "Sky Cataclysm" and "Green Lantern". 's bullshit. The film "Battleship" was directed by Peter Berg, the director of "Superman Hancock". The production cost of $200 million has also become a legend. It is easy to imagine that most of this money was spent on Production of stunt scenes. Of course, the scenes are really hot and dazzling, but this movie is only supported by stunt scenes, and the others can almost be regarded as bubbles.

The sci-fi scenes are gorgeous and colorful, especially the confrontation on the battlefield. And the topic of gunfire is very attractive no matter the circumstances. The scene of fighting guns in "Battleship" is very hot, making the audio-visual effect reach a climax, especially when shooting guns, it makes people feel particularly exciting. Before that, several famous American warships headed by the "Missouri" were also the finale of the film, and they were rarely worth watching. For example, the warships had a strong image shock when they were sailing, especially when shooting high-altitude shots, let The scene is quite grand.

There are many substantial loopholes in the film, which cannot be concealed under the sole support of the scene. The design of the aliens is a big failure, not to mention the appearance of nothing new, what makes people feel nonsensical is that the aliens were finally beaten by a disability. Weapons and equipment, come on, this makes the vision of sci-fi a lot less, and the large-scale combat aircraft controlled by aliens will always launch a kind of cannonball, which makes the point of view of sci-fi a lot less. What's more, the first time I saw aliens, I was not interested in people. The two head-to-head confrontations between aliens and humans were both defeated by humans, which made the film's sci-fi point of view even less. a lot.

When the aliens erected a protective barrier on the sea, they basically guessed that this was a one-on-one battle. After a fighter jet broke through the barrier and blew itself up, it explained to the audience that a large human force could not break through the barrier, and could only rely on a few ships inside. Battleship against aliens. So naturally, I entered the savior-like plot preparation track unique to Hollywood. The plot is too unconcerned, and I hardly feel any dynamic point of view, even the humor of the characters in a few specific designs. It feels too rigid.

So far, this "Battleship" is really only supported by scenes, and there is nothing to watch except for stunt scenes.

Don't walk away after the subtitles, there are foreshadowings behind, in order to tell everyone that there is a sequel.

As a movie audience in China, I actually saw the plot that paid tribute to "The Art of War" in the film. Damn, "The Art of War" is used in such a Hollywood sci-fi war movie. I can't figure out whether it is a praise or a Satire. The most interesting part of the film is the artillery shooting. The pictures of several shells fired from the barrel are very dynamic, and the visual effects are still very shocking. When watching "Battleship", let's take a look at the gun.

    Alien looks embarrassing. It's fun to go out on old warships. Three and a half.

    I think it's not bad, but I found all kinds of complaints. .
