It can be seen that the director is very attentive, but it just feels a little bit worse.

First of all, I'm not a fan of the original book, I just went to see if I could find the feeling of watching the return of the mummy when I was a child to find out.

I went to see it today, forgot to bring my eyes, and read it vaguely, so I won't talk about the special effects. In terms of special effects, the gap between domestic films and Hollywood will only get smaller and smaller as time goes on.

No spoilers, just feelings. It can be seen that the entire team from the director to the actors is very attentive, the film screen to the actors' acting skills are really good, probably very much want to make this series a benchmark for domestic adventure films, similar to The Mummy and Dr. Jones.

The first 20 minutes of the film and the introduction of the characters, as well as the aftermath of the film's ending, have the feeling of a Hollywood adventure movie.

The following points are put forward where personal feelings are insufficient, and netizens lightly spray.

1. The story line is a bit single, the plot is not ups and downs enough, and there is no sense of adventure after going through a dangerous situation and returning safely

2. The villain is too weak and there is not enough conflict.

3. The relevant knowledge of the tomb robbery part is too little. It is just those few words that are repeated over and over again. The gossip appears on the screen twice, which can only be understood as the director's lack of imagination and no means to express the relevant content.

4. The rhythm of the emotional drama is too slow, and the rhythm of the adventure drama is too different, especially the emotional drama in the final stage of the tomb robbery, which is full of drama.

5. The soundtrack of the film is too simple, the soundtrack of some scenes is too passionate, and the rhythm of the film does not seem to be so climax. (It seems to be a common problem with domestic films.)

Finally, I hope that domestic filmmakers will continue to work hard and make better films. come on!
