When the mech is full of plastic wind - "Pacific Rim: Uprising"

The first was shot by Guillermo del Toro, the director we love to call Top. It's notoriously a monster lover, so we get to see every flesh-and-blood monster in the first installment. Nor will there be logically different worldviews, logic, etc.

The first one from the beginning of driving the Nomad back to the base alone, to the back of the Hong Kong war. The sacrifice of the Chinese mecha "Storm Crimson" and the Russian mecha "Cherno Alpha". That moment also touched my heart, because although Chinese mechas and Russian mechas don't have much foreshadowing in movies, they have a corresponding world view. So I feel like it really happened.

Although after the baptism of "Transformers", the battle between mechas has really changed to smoking, rivets on the mecha, and hitting the monsters in circles, the feeling is really the same as "Transformers" Sci-fi fighting is different.

In the end, it was difficult to close the wormhole, which made me refresh the Pacific Rim world and look forward to the birth of more mechs.


And let's go back to our film "Pacific Rim 2", perhaps we feel that the first film has achieved good results in the Chinese market. So it can be said that the film is full of sincerity. Jing Tian will not talk about it, Zhang Jin's performance is a small highlight. But it doesn't compare to the plot, it's just too ridiculous !

In the beginning, the son of the first hero earns war money. Then, by mistake, he met Amara who could assemble the mecha by himself. You told me that you can assemble a "boxer" by yourself as a person who doesn't know anything. So what do you need those scientists for?

Then a male protagonist who did not want to be a soldier and a female protagonist who assembled his own mecha were brought to China "Mo Yulan"? Then the plot is that Jing Tian brought her unmanned mecha to Mo Yulan and said that she would replace the current soldiers. The male protagonist's sister didn't want the drone armor to appear, so he asked the male protagonist to drive the Nomad, and then accidentally ran into the revenge obsidian. In the end, the battle was defeated, and the male protagonist and sister died. Before she died, she decrypted where the obsidian of revenge was produced. It's a bit logical to make no sense?

The next plot is nothing more than saving the world, right? Then we will release another major protagonist of this film - the monster. How to release it is very simple. Because Newt linked with the monsters in the first part, the second part directly thought that he was completely occupied by the monsters. He actually controlled Jing Tian's drone army and directly destroyed Mo Yulan. Inside the soldiers died dead, wounded wounds. Mecha broken, broken, broken. The most ridiculous thing is that it was so difficult to close in the first part. The destroyed wormhole was actually opened by a few laser cannons.


Then there is the plot where the protagonist saves the world. Repair the mecha and let a few interns who were unable to operate at first take office. Directly control 3 mechs to stop monsters from destroying the world. But when the mecha came out, I really couldn't complain.

what is this? There is no heaviness of the first step at all, okay? Each mecha has its own unique trick, assassin? meat shield? shooter? warrior? Your King's Glory is black? The development of such technology is for close hand-to-hand combat? That feeling is not even as strong as the first one gave me. The most speechless thing is that monsters can be directly combined through earth technology. But we can transform, why transform? Because of the lack of time, the protagonist has not yet shown that miserable feeling.

So, we are left with 3 mechs that should be fried. Leaving the heroine and the hero to drive the Nomad to save the earth, and the way to save the earth is also very unique - hit and killed. By the way, at this time, we have to let our real protagonists appear - Jing Tian and Boxer, and let them help install the propulsion device.


When the worldview of the first part, the sense of history, and even the feeling of smoking, the rivets about to be sprayed out, were replaced by high-tech blades and the stunts of the mechas. When the monsters can still fit together, each monster even comes from the plot. Really the first magnificent history has been wiped out, and only my special effects are left, so why don't I watch "Transformers"? I added Chinese plots for Chinese audiences, so why don't I watch domestic films? So please, don't ruin the world of mechas, don't arbitrarily fabricate mecha monsters without a sense of history for the sake of plot and box office. Your second, I prefer to believe it's Transformers 6

    Be honest! It's really not that good, I still like Da Tiantian's Datang Glory, and Da Tiantian's acting is average here.
