"The New Mummy": Atang Ge's own attributes cannot revitalize the thriller magic theme movie

author:Wang Twenty Film Review

Is it because of the natural attributes of Brother Tang, as long as there are movies in which he participates, it vaguely gives people the feeling of a secret agent-like attribute. Even this movie with a mythological nature has been driven by Atang Ge to change a lot of flavors. This is the self-centered function of Brother Tang, in the whole movie, it is completely in accordance with the style of Brother Tang, so that the mythological horror that was originally emitted was diluted and eliminated by the style characteristics of Brother Tang.

I have to say that this makes the movie less characteristic, but also misses a lot of diversified content, the movie can not really play the charm it should have in the theme, lingering around the superstar has completely become a fan movie. In particular, the movie itself is a well-known IP remake, which not only deviates from the unique content style of the movie, but also completely changes the layout of the movie, so the joining of the superstar is not a good thing for a classic movie.

Compared with the grand visual effects and exotic style of the old version of the film, the film moves the story scene to the modern city. Compared with the old version, the bright and stimulating red and yellow warm color is used as the background color of the story, so that the overall appearance of the movie gives people a feeling of spring breeze and warmth, and the sunrise feeling of vitality. The background color of the new version of the movie uses blue and black cool colors to create an atmosphere for the movie, making the whole movie look dark and lifeless, even if It is a joke between Brother Tang and the dead friend to mediate the atmosphere, it still makes people feel the relaxed mood brought by the movie.

Maybe it was deliberately designed to create the Universal Dark Universe, but the film lacks any plot that any movie can remember. The whole viewing process is spent in gloom and gloom, as if only the resurrection of Brother Atang can let people know that the protagonist will not easily hang up like that. Such a portrayal of the protagonist's aura, so that the plot of the movie tends to be thin, since you know that the protagonist can not die, where is there anything worth watching and suspense?

Especially as a film about the story of a mummy, the film almost did not appear in the exotic scenes of the Arab world in the whole film process, and the scene story was completely transplanted to London, and the urban magic became a bit unsympathetic. There is no reverence for the gods, just a group of archaeologists and evil forces fighting each other, such a plot story is not at all careful, okay? Even myths and stories can be designed and controlled by elite people, and the world of our ordinary people is simply dark.

The mummy in this movie is the most uninhabited villain, not only did not burst out of his own horror and power, but even appeared on the scene and was used for experiments. Not only was he not respected and sought after by people, but he even had to sacrifice his own hue to let Brother Tang rescue himself from the fire. Such a trapped and depressed character, who was wronged before he was born, and after resurrection, he had to be used for experiments, and he was not the main villain in the movie in the end, but a transitional role to summon the god of death, Seth, and had never seen such a fading mummy role.

But the most unpleasant thing is princess Knight's dress, in the movie she is always a corpse shroud, did not wear any gorgeous clothes, almost like a stinky meal, not a little tabletop. As a princess, you must at least have some face, or a woman, and you should at least dress up after your resurrection. The crew shouldn't even have the money to buy clothes, but the reality is that there really isn't. If I had to give the costume design of this movie a score, I would give it a zero.

Compared with princess Knight's pity, the most hated character in the movie is Still Brother Atang, the prodigal son who has always been chaotic and abandoned, although he has successfully deceived the trust of the two beautiful women. But in the end, the god of death did not do a single thing in the upper body, and the first thing he chose to do was to settle old accounts. Let's not say that the power of the gods not only did not dominate him, but was dominated by him in such a brainless plot. Let's just say that as a god of death, he did not choose to kill people, but chose to save people. Death has become a good person, how do you let the other gods play?

In the end, this movie gives people the feeling of being a small family. There are no groundbreaking scenes, no steamy stories, and no wonderful and beautiful plots. Circumventing the conspiracy of the elite, it is also known as saving mankind. This kind of movie with no story, no plot and no point of view, just to open up a dark universe, consumes such a well-known IP, which is really not worth it at all. If the entire dark universe were this kind of cargo, you would know what the result would be without looking at it.

Brother Tang's importance to the movie is self-evident, but Brother Tang plays with the movie like this. Sitting in this movie as a big star, I didn't inject any vitality into the movie at all, and I also took the plot of the whole movie astray, which is a bit too much to say. In particular, the role he plays in this movie is both good and evil, neither good nor bad, circling among the various characters, sometimes glorious and positive, sometimes despicable and dirty, it is really difficult to define what kind of position he is in in the movie.

To interpret one side, he must do a good job of playing a good role, but he has to be comprehensive in the movie and wants to play a variety of roles. To be a prodigal son, to be a hero, to be a gentleman, and to be a villain. All kinds of interpretations, all kinds of interpretations, all kinds of complexity. Let's fully see a versatile Tom Cruise in the movie, so the drama of him completely disregards the feelings of other actors, how do you play other roles like this?

So the genuine girlfriend in the movie becomes a silly white sweet, Princess Knight becomes a mindless shield villain, and even the appearance of Dr. Avatar in the movie is just to play a role of threading the needle. Only Brother Atang can do whatever he wants in the movie, can stage a hero to save the United States with the doctor's girlfriend, can spend the night with Princess Knight in the consciousness, and even have fun with a good friend, and finally evolve into a god and rule the world with divine power. Playing with movies like this, why don't you go to heaven?

Such an unprincipled movie protagonist makes the whole movie seem so unruly and unorthodox. What good people do, bad people also do, and you can't die, and you can't live. In the end, I became a living dead on the upper body of the god of death, but the most unacceptable thing was that God was controlled by man, not god controlling man. It seems that the day of the human counterattack has really arrived, which can completely reverse the position of the human god and open up a whole new world for the movie.
