(The camera is mounted on the helmet to make the first-person perspective)
From short films to movies, no matter which one is a bold attempt, in today's business-oriented environment, new attempts may not be conducive to box office revenue, maybe There will be different opinions and different opinions, but Russian director Ilya Naishuler presents the hard core to the audience with the spirit of the fighting nation, which is a success.
As the first first-person movie, the hardcore has successfully stunned the audience, especially in parkour and fighting scenes. The moment the protagonist falls to the ground, there is a feeling of being hit hard; you should get used to it when you see half of it. With this perspective, it becomes more like playing a game, the shooting scene is more obvious, and the development of the new product VR (virtual reality), I really can't imagine what it is like to watch it with VR. (It must be cool)
As a sci-fi movie, although it wins in the shooting technique, it is still slightly inferior to the sci-fi blockbuster in terms of plot. The development of the plot is very similar to the game, probably because of the first person. The protagonist Henry wakes up in the laboratory, and is equipped with mechanical arms and legs by a beautiful doctor, and is in a state of amnesia. These are not the point. The point is that the beautiful doctor claims to be the protagonist's wife. Since the female hormones emitted by Russian girls from the first perspective are unstoppable, it is like a beautiful wife falling from the sky when she wakes up. How can you not, Henry is like this, even Don't even think about it, I'll admit it right away. (Princess is online) The
princess was kidnapped by the evil boss within a few minutes of the launch, so the protagonist started the journey to save the princess and defeat the Boss.
Since you want to fight monsters, you must have NPCs to guide them and give the heroes maps and weapons, so the old NPC Jimmy went online. Jimmy is a very interesting setting. The first and second Jimmy died in seconds, which is very confusing. It was obvious that the second male appeared, but he could not live for ten minutes. It was not until the middle and late stages that the real Jimmy emerged. It turned out to be a The upgraded version of Hawking controls multiple robots to help the male protagonist all the way, just to see his own achievements. (The beginning of the final chapter)
It turned out that Jimmy had a past with the Boss and wanted to take revenge, so they embarked on the road of crusade against the Boss together. This also reached the climax of the film, where a large wave of gunfights struck, and of course, blood was flying.
It's still the same as the old plot. All the NPCs died inexplicably when they were about to fight the Boss. The protagonist had no choice but to start a solo show, killing a cyborg like himself with one attack. This fully reflects the first and mass production. insurmountable gap.
The BOSS battle begins
to add here that the protagonist has no language function. It may be that the director thinks that since it is from a first-person perspective, the audience should be allowed to imagine adding lines. The protagonist only speaks once in the whole film, that is, when Akon wants to abuse the princess, he sends out a desperate "no", which shows how deep the love is! The functions that are not there are stimulated, so it can only be explained by "because of love".
Boss Akon has been on the hook from the very beginning. When others use guns, he uses superpowers. If machine guns can't solve it, he will finish with a wave of his hand, but this seems to lose blood and cost mana. He vomits blood when he hits. But the game can be resurrected!
Just when the countdown of the resurrection CD, the male protagonist Henry found out that everything was a conspiracy...
I won't spoil this last point, anyway, it's to kill the Boss game.
The unique perspective, visual experience, parkour gunfights and hand-to-hand combat, as well as endless blood and plot, needless to say, are the characteristics of this film.
I think the biggest highlight is the soundtrack. The intermittent technique of the soundtrack is perfect. It combines perfectly with the picture and has a strong sense of immersion, especially when the protagonist injects adrenaline into himself when he cuts a hundred people at the end, he takes out a Queen song. Queen's "Don't Stop Me Now" was on fire! ! ! There is an urge to fight side by side.
Overall it's a movie worth watching, although you may not like the dizzying perspective, old-fashioned plot, gore and violence, but it is the first first-person film after all, and I recommend everyone to watch it ,Feel it.
