Since I decided to write a film review a day, I hope that I will no longer look at any film emotionally, but love each film objectively and calmly. It was not until today in 2014 that I found that it is easy to make vows. But it's really hard to do it. In any case, I still want to thank Journey to the West for making a big havoc in the Heavenly Palace. After all, it feels good to break the ring.
There was such a simple story. An old man lived alone in a room. The young man upstairs went home every night and threw two leather shoes on the floor, waking the old man downstairs. Later, the old man asked the young man and said It affected my life. The next night, the sound of a shoe slamming woke the old man up. The old man continued to wait for the sound of the second shoe, but there was no sound all night. I believe everyone knows this story. In fact, in today's Chinese film market, every one of us in the audience plays the role of an old man. We are always looking forward to the sound of the next leather shoe and the birth of the next bad movie. We wait silently and patiently. Accepted, now that one leather shoe is thrown down, who knows when the next one will be thrown down, hundreds of millions of spectators are waiting like this, and at the same time, they will give them silver taels in their pockets.
We are not unfamiliar with the theme of Journey to the West, whether it is the classic image created by TV dramas, or the later remakes of cartoons, Zhou Xingchi's big talk about Journey to the West, Xu Zheng's Brilliant Spring Pig Bajie, or the various future bosses, the predecessors have exhausted this infinitely. The nutrition of this classic masterpiece. A hundred years later, on this barren land, the miners came again, and they used an instrument called 3D technology to grab a little bit of dirt. Such a movie has long been published.
In fact, it is not uncommon for cases of reshaping classic characters, and even subversion is possible. For example, Ju Zunbao also adds elements of love. For example, the once sequel series of Journey to the West also played the script of the War of the Three Realms. Of course, this is also a movie. Poor movie, but none of these can compare to this big story, Journey to the West. We are not afraid of disgusting people. We are afraid that after disgusting people, people will applaud after them. This is not called shamelessness, but it is called a crime.
Often when we judge the quality of a movie, we will look at it from several aspects such as plot, performance, and visual effects. Okay, let's take a look at this movie. In general, this is an adaptation that seems to be based on the original book. However, if it is not an adaptation of the same time and space, it is possible. However, for the plot of the havoc in the heavenly palace, Joining the Demon Clan abruptly is not only an insult to Wu Guanzhong, but also an insult to the audience. It also means that the so-called conspiracy in the movie is not mentioned. Don't worry, we can guess it without the lines. There are only two and a half people in total. , a fool can see what is going on. Let's talk about the performance. I'm sorry, I can't see anything behind the mask, but some monsters are quite like the orcs in the Lord of the Rings. Do you want to thank Peter the Great? As for the effect, I really don't want to say anything. If you want to shoot in 3D, or something else, we should persuade the director to hire a professional person. At least the cutout should be cleaned up. We are already very satisfied.
In fact, whenever I see a movie of this level, I always think about a question. Maybe this is not the fault of the producers, but the fault of the audience. We allow such a thing to happen. We compromise again and again, time and time again. of spending money to walk into a movie theater. To say that Chinese audiences are easy to fool, I first disapprove. Our average movie viewing quality is not high, but our movie viewing level is indeed improving rapidly. We know how to check the ratings before entering the theater, and how to know how to check the ratings on social platforms. Follow the critics and learn to book the best seats in a movie theater, but, in the end, we keep ignoring the question of why we watch movies. Is this lifestyle what we want?
Going through one bad movie after another is like living in vain in society. On second thought, it turns out that this is actually the case.
