Now that 16 years have passed, 7 "Fast and Furious" have been shot in succession. On April 14 this year, "Super 8" hit a box office miracle of 1.3 billion in just three days after its release. Van Diesel is old and rough. There are only Dominic and Letty left in the original speeding car family. Paul Walker, who had agreed to take on the role of "Super 8", is no longer alive, and Jason Statham, The appearance of the two muscular uncles of Dawn Johnson is really a bit of the rhythm of "The Expendables". The plot of "Super 8" is also a lot sadder than before. It is once again the assembly number of the speeding family, and another dangerous action to defeat the enemy and crack the nuclear crisis. Every time I see such a plot, there is always a sense of deja vu boredom. , "Super 8" will fall into such a cliché, inevitably there is a sense of poverty.
In 16 years, the actors have changed and the plot has changed. Although everything has changed, the speed and passion of the car will not change. This is the key to the attention of film companies, screenwriters, directors, actors and all fans.
Cars are enough, in a 136-minute movie theater.
Everything is the ultimate, isn't it? Cuba, Havana, deep blue sea, rugged women, unique car culture, a thrilling street racing is ready to go. Dominic said: "Maybe I only enjoy the ten seconds of racing, and only at that moment can I get real relief." The same thing is revealed in "Speed 1", racing includes winning, and winning can bring money. , Honor, respect, value, etc., but it is not just about winning. In the role of the engine and the roar of the engine, the pursuit of speed, freedom, and the joy of that moment seems to be a matter of life. Be passionate.
In "Fast and Furious", Dominic is the king of racing. In "Super 8", Dominic drove a fast-burning car across the finish line; in the speeding family, it was almost divided into five horses. At that time, Dominic broke free; in the last big battle in Iceland, Dominic finally returned to the team, and the speed family battle tank reloading force prevented the nuclear submarine, which was so cool. In addition, the scenes of Jason Statham and Dawn Johnson fighting in prison are also very eye-catching. It can be said that Super 8 is almost flawless in terms of racing, scenes and action scenes.
At the end of the film, familiar pre-dinner prayers also appeared. Faith, emphasis on family, and friendship are once again shown in the film as a value. But I think this film is more important to bring us an ultimate life experience. Beautiful enough that no one can compare, too fast to replicate, so handsome that no one surpasses, loves to be consistent, and brave enough to crush all conspiracies. It's like this movie again, to be the most passionate, to be the most self, to be the most serious, maybe it is not perfect, but it has reached a kind of extreme. Hope that we, like the people in this movie, live seriously and live our ultimate life.
