Uncle Cai said: A small-cost movie is made like this.

Hello everyone, I am Xiao Ahua.

Today, the movie that Ahua recommends to everyone is amazing. This is a World War II zombie movie called "Overlord".

The background of the story is set on the eve of the "Normandy Landing" during World War II.

France has been completely occupied by Germany, and allied forces (the United States, Britain, Canada, Free France, Poland, the Netherlands, Norway) landed in Normandy, France, and opened up a second battlefield.

On the eve of the landing, due to the lack of soldiers, a lot of conscription work was carried out. Many American boys received telegrams from the post office and asked them to join the army. This is war. After a short training in the new barracks, they were put on the battlefield. The male protagonist Xiaohei is like this.

Their task is to find and destroy the interference tower.

The plot starts from the early days of the Normandy landing, and the US military parachutes into the enemy's back. It accidentally finds the Nazi laboratory, and escapes after a desperate struggle.

It can be said that there are no bright spots in the plot, but the victory of this film is better than the excellent rhythm.

From the beginning of the airborne show, it has firmly grasped the audience's attention.

Several downed "paratroopers" fled from the crashed plane, evaded Nazi search, and then inadvertently sneaked into the Nazi laboratory to discover the secrets of evil. The emotional drama so far did not cause any burden to the plot. It can be said that the rhythm is absolutely great.

First of all, in the opening skydiving operation, a thrilling long shot of skydiving was used as soon as it came up, which instantly caught the audience's attention.

The crashed fuselage, the soaring artillery, and the American soldiers like birds, were crumbling in the air.

This rain of bullets can be said to be quite exciting, and it is in sharp contrast with the brief calm that immediately follows.

The experimental legends about the Nazis have always been mysterious, and they are also the subject of everlasting film industry.

And this film has also been processed and transformed, and the visual effect it presents is very scary.

A group of people found the carcasses of rotting animals in the woods.

A strangely ill old man in the small town.

The male protagonist Xiaohei got on the German military vehicle going to the laboratory by mistake and found a car of wounded soldiers with weird appearance.

Through the crack of the door, a person with a serious "skin disease" almost didn't scare the male protagonist Xiao Hei to pee.

In the laboratory, there are also various human monsters.

Woman with head and neck separated.

A man soaked in a potion and wearing an oxygen mask.

All the anti-human images seen above are from human experiments conducted secretly by the Nazis.

In order to dominate the world, in order to create invincible soldiers, they captured innocent people and hit various reagents on them.

As a result, various monsters and zombies that make people physically uncomfortable appeared in the movie.

In this way, upgrading and fighting monsters became the main theme of the second half of the film.

The male protagonist Xiaohei stole a "resurrected" experimental serum in the laboratory. When his comrade was killed by the Germans, he injected the serum into his comrade’s body...

Then the comrades mutated directly in front of them! ! !

Netizens are criticizing the halo of the Virgin Mary on the male protagonist Xiao Hei.

At this time, the male protagonist Xiaohei and his teammates realized that it was more important than destroying the interference tower to destroy the Nazi human laboratory before these dead people turned into monsters.

Here comes the climax of the film-destroy the laboratory!

The first zombie appeared, twisted his body, and performed an unprecedentedly difficult movement, which made people startled in a cold sweat.

The second zombie was chasing after his life, even if he got a headshot, his life was really hard.

The third zombie is even more powerful, and the protagonists are so dizzy that they can't be killed or killed.

How to destroy these monsters?

The protagonists are united, fancy fighting monsters, and the blood plasma level rises.

The only heroine of the film, fighting alone, wiped out a zombie that had just successfully mutated.

The battle in the laboratory should be regarded as the highlight of the film: two American soldiers against a mutated German soldier.

Although the two U.S. soldiers were often brutally abused by zombies, the victory was exciting and exciting in the whole process.

It was both nervous and painful to see.

The bloodiness of this film should be regarded as the first-class level in recent years. From the beginning to the end, they kept fighting.

In addition, the rhythm is tight enough and the impact of the picture is strong enough, and the audience will be very enjoyable to watch it.

Although there are three zombies in this film, these three zombies support the skeleton of half of the movie.

The reason is mainly due to budgetary issues.

The number of actors will always be those of normal people, and there will be three zombies.

Shooting scenes, turning over and over again to a forest, a village, and a laboratory.

It is estimated that the money was spent on the opening war scenes.

The small-cost film industry is pretty good.

But overall the film is still very interesting.

    The opening ten minutes of the airborne bridge is really a blockbuster, the overall feeling of "Call of Duty" + "Return to Wolfenstein"; it is more like a clearance game than a regular war movie, but it is similar to the same type of movie "Death". Compared with the "Snow" series, it is a bit stronger; the STG-44 assault rifle is very cool. It has been used by third world countries after the war until now, and its design concept has a huge impact (the ZH-05 of my dynasty is finally better than the 95. It is more like a good gun. The design of the bullet ejection port of the latter can be called a face-slapping artifact. After adding sights, it will be given to the head 1024); the black brother is possessed by the Virgin + all the way to open and hang almost full of blood to clear the customs. The rhythm of "Political Correctness" is unpleasant; there are too few zombies, too weak attack power, and too little ketchup (suddenly thinking that "The Return of the Living Dead 3" was really fierce at that time); Mathilde Olivier Yay is handsome.

    The story is too bad, illogical, and without surprises, the US military has grass, the German has dung, and the black male protagonist, the Madonna, is nauseating.
