a big game of chess

I guess this is the pilot version I saw.

But the ambition of the production unit or the screenwriter can already be seen. It seems that the keywords of film language that we are familiar with can be found here. And just seeing Hank and the female FBI going to the North Pole, and the two young people going to Germany, the scene design knows that the production unit will also cost a lot of money (I know of course that there is computer technology to complete the set, but this is also included in the design. budget). Of course, it can be seen that the screenwriter is going to play a big game of chess!

Religious groups, Nazis, holy objects, prophets, holy babies, reincarnation, 12 saints, the end of the world, all the keywords you can think of about such suspense dramas can be found in this drama. You said that the screenwriter is not in the whole What is a big game of chess for? ! The effect achieved is of course good, because the curiosity of the audience has been mobilized. And the purpose of the series has basically been achieved - it is half done.

In such episodes, religious groups always hold the most powerful and mysterious secrets. This time this one is called the Rosicrucian Order; this time the secret can save or destroy the world (which one is not); this time The selected person is the editor-in-chief of a sci-fi magazine; this time, the partner is a female FBI agent and the editor under the editor-in-chief; the amount of information this time is too much, I can only understand it after reading it twice.

Life doesn't stop, but it goes on and on and on. Your present life will always reflect your past lives, and your past lives will also affect your present life. This, is the central idea of ​​the six-story blockbuster that was released recently, right? The theme of this "Zero Hour" is estimated to be the same. The male protagonist, Mr. Hank, sacrificed to save the world in his previous life. It seems to be the same today, but can I say, Nima, ABC, do you want to show the male protagonist's appearance? Are they all the same? ! There is also the big villain, Mr. Killer, who has always dominated TOP 1 in the world of bad guys. He should be immortal. His eyes betrayed his heart-isn't this the baby who appeared in the cradle at the beginning of the chapter and wasn't born? But I have a puzzled question: I can understand and accept that he is not dead, but how can I keep such an age forever? ! In other words, if I had such a secret, I wouldn't care about how the world changed. I applied for a world patent and sold it to entertainment stars. In this case, the title of the richest man on earth should be left to Bill Gates. The first is not too much, right? ! If I don’t achieve such a grand goal, I would rather be a killer who is banned from flying, can’t eat, can’t sleep well, and has to drive across the Arctic by himself. Such a strange pursuit, I really understand incompetence, incompetence! ! ! ! As for the female FBI agent, because her husband was blown up by Mr. Killer a few years ago, she turned into a black widow from a community teacher and insisted on killing Mr. Killer. I can understand and accept this, but your aura is really not like this As for the two editors, in fact, I don't understand their die-hard loyalty to the male lead Hank. I can only say that the male lead is too charming. If not, then these two people are also arranged by fate.

In fact, to be honest, I don’t really like watching this type of drama and movie, because Western religion is an insurmountable mountain, and the lack of background information will lead to a fatal shortcoming in understanding such dramas. For the sake of watching the fun, I usually detour, I don't know why and how can I understand it? But because this drama is new, the beginning is quite attractive, so I decided to follow it first. Of course, in the usual style of the production unit ABC, the final ending of this drama is estimated to be the following two: OH, the building is rotten, the building is really rotten and OH, the building is rotten, and the building is finally rotten!

The reason why I say this is because such a drama that combines religious suspense, sci-fi suspense, needs the support of a particularly strong script, and according to my experience, ABC really does not have this. In fact, not only ABC, but the entire American drama industry is also rare (in fact, I want to say no, but leave a way out for yourself). In addition, one of the magic weapons for such topics is to form a concentrated bombardment of a large amount of information in a relatively compact period of time, thereby causing tension and conflict, and such an effect is basically difficult to achieve for more than one season of American dramas. It's just dragging the initial curiosity into murder, especially the writer's urge, and the vision to end the show quickly.

Because the screenwriter has made the chess game so big this time, I still have expectations. Although I still don't know which of the two endings I expect, ABC's courage to try is still worthy of recognition. So basically it will still be chased, but how long it will be unknown.

Then I wanted to say, is this show likely to be compared to something like The Da Vinci Code or Angels and Demons, especially the former? Because according to my understanding after watching the show, the so-called world destruction is not necessarily the same as in 2012, and the collapse of beliefs is also very terrifying, right?

Finally, let's spit it out, it's too disrespectful to not complain about such a big chess game. In fact, I want to say, that, the Nazis are really the most powerful organization in the world. The world may have secrets before it came into being, but after it appears, there should be no more, right? ! Is there anything they haven't done? ! Also, that male protagonist is a little weak, I'm not talking about looks, I'm saying that his aura doesn't seem like he can save the world anyway; then the watchmaker in his 90s is a little younger, haha! !

——————————————————————————— When
I wrote it, I always thought I had seen the name Rosicrucian before, and then I finally remembered that it was the famous book. "The Da Vinci Code", which is the original movie mentioned above, the name of this religious group was mentioned in the book. I checked this book, and it was mentioned after the professor and the hostess got the box in the bank. Yes, it seems that the screenwriter of this story is still attentive, which further proves that the show really has the ambition to play a big game of chess.

    Every new ABC drama is very attractive to me, but it is said that the higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment, and the filming will be rotten to death. In order to create a tense atmosphere, the original more than one hour of the plot was just stuffed into the first half hour, so The preview set is simply logically confusing, inexplicably nondescript, and confounding Mahler Gobi.
