Today, I finished the Tomb Raider: Battle of Origins, so I can calm down and write my thoughts on this movie. I'm a fake fan of Tomb Raider. I have played it in 1-6 generations. I have rarely cleared the level. It is too difficult. It happens that 9 is the generation I have cleared three times. Compared with the game, I personally think that this This movie is another failure for game fans, just like movies like Warcraft, Assassin's Creed, etc., it has nothing to do with it. If you have never played games, it can be regarded as a medium-to-high-level movie. The actors have excellent acting skills, high character fit, superb special effects, and a very tight rhythm. However, the film is produced by applying this IP, not just to catch more Do you have more game fans? Sadly, this movie is not friendly to game fans. The screenwriter ignores the most fascinating part of this generation of games, the sense of history and mystery! In the game, Eimatai is an ancient country in Japan, and even my celestial dynasty has sent envoys. This island of Eimatai has also experienced World War II. The island is full of bunkers, ruins and soldiers’ bones from that period, and is in control. The Queen of Himako, who has been in the Yamatai country for thousands of years, has powerful powers, can control the weather, and constantly transfers her soul to the newly selected saints to continue her life and rule (in the film, the mysterious Queen Himehu unexpectedly What a super virus?!). Due to the abilities of Queen Himehu, shipwrecks and plane crashes continue to occur in the surrounding waters (the sinking of Laura's ship and the wreckage of the World War II bomber in the film are all related to this). This area is the Devil Dragon Triangle, which is as famous as Bermuda. How about it? Is it a sense of substitution? Very mysterious? very attractive? And there are more thrilling plots and scenes in the game. For example, the planes and helicopters that rescued Laura and others were struck and crashed by sudden lightning, and there were people in the dark clouds whispering "No one can escape. "The skeletons of wrecked ships and airplanes are all over the sea, from three-masted sailing ships to battleships and modern yachts. This is the origin of the "no one can escape" that flashed in the film, and it also strengthened this The mysterious color of the island, the "no one can escape" in the game makes people have a strong sense of depression and urgency, and this sentence in the movie is more like a rant of Laura’s father’s illness, except for the Holy Trinity It's not impossible to escape from the control of his control, and the tension suddenly weakened. In the game, Himihu’s zombie guards are still wandering in the royal city, guarding the queen. When groups of guards pass by and hold the ceremony, the tension and depression can make the player’s breathing almost stop. It’s too scary. It's weird! And the thousand female guards in the film turned out to be just a thousand corpses lying quietly. We all know that the specific props or characters that appeared in the first minute of the film will definitely be Play its role in the next minute, so can the screenwriter tell me what the thousand corpses in the film are for? For viewing? Game comparison movies, there are too many such mismatches, the history of Eimatai, the origin of the Devil’s Dragon Triangle, the experience of the soldiers of World War II on this island, the despair of the aliens stranded on the island due to accidents and desolation. For the mob, it is not in the movie, and the heavyness of the movie is also lost, so many contents have become dispensable. Some people may say that I watch movies from the perspective of games are critical, but what I want to say is that the charm of Tomb Raider is exactly what Laura has made through unremitting efforts to uncover the secrets of a period of dusty history and discover the mysterious power of ancient times. Existence, fighting against the heavens, fighting against the earth, fighting against people, fighting against ghosts and gods... And this war of origin that passes all these history, mystery, and supernatural, or even completely obliterates it, is only Laura. Tomb Raider with a skin but no soul.
