Directed by Huang Wei and written by Cui Yu and Bai Phosphorus, the animal disaster film "Big Bee: Origins" is being streamed, starring Qiang Ba Caidan, Zhou Yitong, Han Qiuchi and Su Linlin, and tells the story of a six-person squad fighting a mutant bee in an underground chamber.
On the one hand, "The Wild Bee" is easy to make the audience think of the science fiction work "Bumblebee"; on the other hand, it can also react in a short period of time, which is most likely a disaster film about animals, which is still rare in domestic movies in recent years.
However, "Big Bee: Origins" was broadcast in the form of a network movie, and the audience's standards had to be lowered.
A cursory review of this 63-minute online movie is not rough, but it looks very insincere, because there are very few scenes of humans fighting with the behemoth, the probability is to save costs, and the subtitle of the movie is "Origin", so more plots are used to tell how the bee was born.
Regarding the production of the Bee, the film uses flashbacks to show it. First, it tells that the six-person squad came to the bottom chamber to fight with the bee, and then met Dr. Tian to learn the origin of the bee.
The real contributor to the fighting process is only the male protagonist Tian Li, and the process of fighting is relatively simple. Although the heroine Li Fei'er is a mercenary sent by the villain Liu Chao, she has little time to participate in the battle, and she has not seen her ability to show, but she hides the secret of the mad bee in her, because she is the first person to experiment.
So what is this "Mad Bee" more about? Of course, it is the body of the female partner Park Jingjing.
At first, I didn't know why Liu Chao brought a role like Park Jingjing into the secret room, but after watching it, I learned that Park Jingjing may be more attractive than those big bees, and the director gave Park Jingjing more shots than the heroine.
When the bee attacked Park Jingjing, not only did it not cause real damage, but it just pulled off her clothes, and this shot looked like it was deliberately arranged.
Follow-up Park Jingjing still did not wear clothes well, after the injury of the heroine Li Fei'er changed her a new dress, still by Park Jingjing out of the "nightclub style", and the director's lens also stays on her, the light is also colorful and dreamlike, where is this like a disaster film?
At the end of the movie, the big bee was eliminated collectively, and the tool man Lao Li chose to sacrifice himself to attract the remaining bees to disappear collectively, and there was a taste of the network movie. No matter how scary and scary the previous descriptions of the villain and the behemoth are, in the end you can always think of a one-and-done way to finish, which saves more post-production by the way.
Although the film is only one hour long, two Easter eggs are left at the end, one is that Park Jingjing survived, and the second is that Lee Fei'er is also a big bee, which is enough to shoot the second part. Moreover, the subtitle of the first part is also "Origin", and the second part can consider creating some crises.
In fact, from the length of time, it can be seen that the second part should only be 60 minutes, originally a movie had to be split into two, perhaps to see the effect, or deeply understand the quality of their own work, so they are not willing to take risks, right?
