empty skin

Audiences like me who only give [Avengers] two stars are hard to please, and I always think that a movie has to tell a story first and foremost. The story doesn't have to be great, at least you have to tell it all. Just like [raid], even such a simple and rough story, it can't be said to have a plot, but it is also well told, vivid, vivid, swords, lights, swords and shadows come and go, this is a good movie. So the key question is not whether the story is good or bad, but how to tell it. You can't use the stupidity of the characters to drive the story, you can't use the stupidity to create dramatic conflict, and I don't believe there's no other way to express it. There is always a better way to express it.
At the beginning of the film, I also whispered a praise: Yo! not bad! Looking forward to the result, but the worse it gets, the more restless, and the sense of not being replaced at all. The crux of the problem lies in the immaturity of the narrative, the plot is too jumpy, it is not telling a complete story, but telling small stories one by one, and then ask the viewer to assemble it by himself. "Take the Heart of Prince Sirius" is the first short story, "The Princess Saves the Fox Demon" (a play written and directed by the Fox Demon) is the second short story, "The Princess and the Fox Demon spend the night in the wild" is the second short story. This is the third short story, "The Demon Catcher tells a story and meets the fox demon" which is the fourth short story, and "The Childhood Memories of the Princess and Huo Xin" is the fifth short story, and the princess and the fox demon , the fox demon and Huo Xin, the princess and Huo Xin after changing skins, the marriage of the Heavenly Wolf Kingdom, the real purpose of the Heavenly Wolf Kingdom wanting to take the princess' heart to save the prince, the demon hunter and the sparrow spirit... and so on, [ The tedious narrative of Painted Skin 2] is easy to skip, the tension is too great, and it cannot be taken back, which makes people think of "what kind of story do you want to tell". And there is a big problem with the connection between the story and the story. Several lines are almost completely independent. In layman's terms, the story cannot be told roundly. This makes the good feeling of the title disappear. And it's not a suspense movie.
I would like to express the reason why I think the storytelling is stupid with a few questions. Why did the princess carry the fox demon back to Baicheng the next day after being bitten by the scorpion summoned by the fox demon? (Don't tell me that the fox demon cast a spell to make the princess lose her memory. You didn't use the camera to show it. I don't know if she was bitten? Then she still struggled and fell from a height?) Why can't even enter the general's mansion to catch After the demon master can freely enter and leave the general's mansion? And you can find General Huo Xin casually, pretending to be a ghost beside him? (Don't say you really believe that they are brothers Baibaozi, and brothers Baibaozi can't get into the general's mansion? What nonsense?) Why did Queling bring in a monster hunter who was not exhausted during the decisive battle with the Heavenly Wolf Kingdom? A decisive battle with the mage of Sirius? Just so that the blood of the demon catcher can hurt you? Why did the Master of the Heavenly Wolf Kingdom kick him away first if he wanted to kill the Demon Hunter? Why does the Master of the Heavenly Wolf Kingdom stand on the stage to watch the battle if he wants to win the princess' heart? (Attracted by the wonderful fight?) Why did the mage of the Heavenly Wolf country crush the monster-seeking lamp thrown by the monster hunter for no reason? Why are there so many unpleasant slow-motion close-ups? (To be fair, some slow-motion close-ups are quite interesting.) Why did the queen, who was eagerly looking forward to the resurrection of her brother, disappeared when she held a ritual?
All in all, the plot can't stand up to scrutiny, and it's difficult to get into the drama in a mess. This is also the reason why many people leave midway.
After the end credits came out, many people applauded sincerely. It is true that [Painted Skin 2] is not useless, and it can also win the favor of many audiences. It is undeniable that the lens is beautiful and the special effects are also passable. The film is also very freehand. The most freehand is the big white ass looming in the water. If the treatment of this butt is not so freehand, it is just an ordinary butt. Under such freehand shots, this butt will change. Become a freehand ass. Of course, no matter who this ass belongs to, it is always a good-looking ass. Huo Xin's battles and battles in the 100,000 warriors of the Heavenly Wolf Country alone are very exciting, and the changing of skins is very beautiful and magical. It's just that this happened more than an hour later, and I sighed to myself and thought that the orgasm came too late, but I didn't expect the orgasm not long ago, and immediately became impotent. In addition, some of the cleverness are also commendable, and the burden of adjusting the atmosphere is also good. Fei Xiang amused the audience when he appeared on the stage, and when he spoke Sanskrit, he was happy again. The sparrow spirit and the monster hunter are the most interesting one The story line, Yang Mi and Feng Shaofeng's cute PK is very interesting. It's just that there is no skeleton to support it, just like there is no heart in the play, what's the use of having a layer of skin that is painted on it? As long as there is money and time, who can't find a place with beautiful scenery and make beautiful special effects? As long as there are a few good actors with selling points, who can't shake off a few decent burdens? To be honest, my expectations for [Painted Skin 2] were high, but I was disappointed.
It's just that there is no way, in my mind, the standard of a good movie is still the perfect storytelling.



PS: This is all the navy to drown me. . I've been fair enough to evaluate. . By the way, female compatriots are more likely to like this film. The two female colleagues who went with me to watch the film at the opening ceremony of the Shanghai Film Festival both liked this film.
