Time: 16:20 on July 13th
Ticket price: 25 yuan, special
number of people with card: 9 people in the audience, less than expected. Perhaps because of the rolling release in Hall N, perhaps because I chose the Mandarin version, or perhaps it was an untimely afternoon. Some young people at the door are very fashionably waiting for the original version. An old man like me who does not understand English can only choose the Mandarin version, and I am more fortunate to find some problems with the translation of the subtitles. IMAX is the first choice, excluding the consideration of audio-visual effects, it is recommended to choose...
Trailer: The Secret that Can't Be Said, The Man's True Color, Heaven's Mouth, The Name of the Name, Bean's Golden Week, Big Talk, Harry Potter 5. Muggles will suffer for another month. There are 5 to 6 patch ads, basically they are related to Transformers. The trailer and patch ad totaled 18 minutes, the longest in history.
Others: The ending subtitle part was castrated by the projectionist again. Neither the conversation with Sam's parents nor the footage of Starscream flying into space is to be seen, again to remind everyone not to go first.
Viewing conclusion: 200% visual gluttony, not to be missed. Especially the steel wire of the post-80s generation.
It seems a little late to go back and write a review of Transformers. I don't feel it anymore, I can only say a few words.
First of all, I am not a tightrope, there is no attempt to retrieve my childhood memories, I am just watching the fun. In my impression, childhood is deficient in materials, and spiritual enjoyment is even more pitiful. I haven't seen many cartoons, but Yixiu's wisdom and Mole's kindness are basically gentle and elegant. Far less fiery (or violent) than the later "Transformers", "Saint Seiya" and so on. Regarding "Transformers", it basically exists in the turntable for a moment, and there is no tears of "Autobot, transform and start!" The blurred memory is destined to just enjoy the visual pleasure. Secondly, it is difficult for you to toss out any profound insights for a commercial blockbuster like "Transformers". Maybe I can make up a lot of bullshit theories about world peace, the greatness of human nature, equality and freedom, etc., but I’m just deceiving others.
Michael Bay and Spielberg's "Transformers" concentrates all the selling points of Hollywood movies: tight plots, intense fights, brilliant action design, vulgar routines... "Pearl Harbor" with aircraft carriers passing by, the Secretary of Defense in The back room of "Jedi Boys 2" shoots again, and Sam wields a signal flare to summon the fighters of "Breakthrough"... The lack of innovation is the most important fatal wound of "Transformers".
In fact, "Transformers" is no longer the cartoon we have seen, old bottles of new wine. In addition to the same name, the appearance of the Autobots or the plot of the story are completely different from the cartoons of 20 years. The protagonist of the live-action "Transformers" is a human being: the blindness of youth, the warmth of family, and the courage of adversity. Shapeshifting robots have been reduced to the biggest (or gigantic) supporting roles, and the once-invincible Autobots are just as low in the face of human ingenuity. In addition to Bumblebee, which is a little bit more showy because of the large number of scenes, the other Autobots in our eyes are nothing but tin bumps that will change. Autobots and Decepticons are almost indistinguishable. In addition to its amazing lethality, the cold mechanical metal only has shocking deformation and wonderful fighting. The portrayal of characters (whether human or Autobot) is clearly overkill.
"Transformers" is only a visual blockbuster, and it is worthwhile to enjoy a feast for the senses.
