First of all, the film is too long... I don't remember how long the Lord of the Rings series and the Harry Potter series were, this kind of fictional film is usually long, but this film is obviously very disabling, and it is not only me. There are a lot of long films, White Deer Plain, The Sound of Music... Watching the disabled audience shows that the excitement is too low.
Compared with the Lord of the Rings, it is probably one of the Lord of the Rings prequels or prequels, of course, if you have not seen it, you can only go to see it for the special effects. Well, I'm not a filmmaker, so I don't have to be too real.
The Douban score has a total of five stars, which is probably the same in my heart. The actor performs one star, the plot design has a star, the picture details have a star, the editing and photography has a star, and the film theme has a star.
This film undoubtedly relies mainly on special effects, so there is no picture good evaluation, and the lighting makeup of the cloth shadow is post-production, praise! There's a star here. And because it is a special effect, it brings great difficulty to the actor's performance, such as the appearance of dwarves in it, etc., because of the proportion of the body, Gandalf's actors and dwarves are filmed separately and then synthesized in post-production, at the beginning of the film in the male protagonist's house a bunch of people lively eating and drinking Scene should be the old man alone in the air, making concessions, taking the wine... So it goes without saying that it's about editing and scene scheduling. There are two stars here.
The plot is very general and strange, the credentials for the expedition are not explained in detail, it is seen in the clouds, and in my opinion, the male protagonist is not irreplaceable, and many scenes that he does not need to appear in force him to participate in because he is the protagonist. The most unsatisfactory thing is that it seems that popular movies are shooting up and down now? Why can't you tell a story for more than two hours in this film? Moreover, the plot is not complicated. The dragon mentioned repeatedly at the beginning of the film, that is, at the end of the film, the eyes are opened, and even the whole face is not revealed, of course, it will appear in the back, so it does not matter. The white half-orc is not killed at the end of the film, not even "I'll be back!" The like didn't let the family say a word. The dwarven king and the half-orc had a vendetta because the half-orcs had invaded their homeland and killed the king, but why did they? It didn't make it clear. The bad point of this is that everyone goes to vomit. A dilemma breakout is also far-fetched.
Although the performance is excellent, but the screenwriter's portrayal of the character image is a failure, although many people in it do have difficulties, but in fact, many people do not need to appear, the seven dwarfs are also very smooth, and smooth, but also a character to shoot posters. The reason for the appearance is probably that the screenwriter thinks that adding the male protagonist and the dwarf king only seven people to fight the strange people is too few, and there are still a few who have to die in order to highlight the brotherhood, which is not enough. But the image portrayal is very poor, except for the leader, the other can not remember clearly, there is a pair of brothers, that is because they are very handsome, but the thought of the elf prince Orlando Bloom, who is more skilled at riding and shooting, and then thinking that he also married the victoria's secret model Ke'er, the high and low points became a male dick. Off topic.
The theme should have been full of justice and redemption, and then accompanied by the ups and downs of events there are changes in the minds of the characters, especially the protagonists plus personality evolution, and although the playwright's responsibility is to create enough conflicts to make your audience interested, but... But...... In caves, on cliffs ... The male protagonist and the male second question each other, answer questions, conflicts, reconciliation, are tvb's way, simply unbearable. And usually in the unexpected, no matter what he says or does, when putting enough pressure on the character to make a choice to reflect the truth of the character, the film is set up too bluntly, and the character conflict does not have a great effect on driving the plot. Then the biggest enemy-friend conflict in this film is not explained, very incomplete, if there is a b-side, it is another story.
There is also a slot point is the "last minute rescue" setting of this film, too much setting and not enough suspense, and failed to make better use of the plot of the parallel development of montage, all relying on the audience's memory and the appearance of the main characters. The main and secondary scenes are not very divided, which wastes a lot of time and plot points.
There is no doubt that the hobbit is the protagonist, but the character setting is simply... The main characters of the film represent the peak of the level of character shaping in the whole film, and to this extent, it all depends on the audience's Lord of the Rings foundation. The character's first appearance is too casual, neither reflecting the character nor pre-empting contradictions and conflicts, oh no, the character's personality is no personality. The first ten minutes of the film also really tell us who the protagonist is, the premise of the play and the dramatic situation, which is simply a metaphor: too naked and still playing code in some places. Wasted, not even accounting for the protagonist's plot needs and what drives him to change his doctrine towards the end of the story. The characters have no distinct personality, and the film's contradictory and conflict settings, plot arrangements, details selection and utilization, and the handling of the scenes cannot be talked about.
Can't help but think of the shaping of another hobbit protagonist in the Lord of the Rings, that is, his grandson, the character image, personality, contradictions are vivid and three-dimensional, leaving a deep impression, coupled with the fact that the film mostly uses parallel montages, the hobbit's trek and the clues of cooperation between the human race and the elves are matched, and one by one complement each other. The structure of this hobbit... Oh, it is the traditional causal linear structure, interspersed with a few memories.
The most prominent character image is Gollum, with more advanced post-production technology and actor performance, and his part is even the hair on my thighs. However, this is created by the Ring King, and the credit for the screenwriter cannot be counted.
Anyway, this film gives me the feeling that a few producers and directors are chatting, ah the Lord of the Rings really made money, yes, yes, then let's do it again. Audience friends come to see, this is a prequel ~ if you think it is good, then let's shoot an elf prequel Terran prequel to you Oh ~ what? Wizard prequel? That's Harry Potter~ Gandalf got a lot of land after the victory of the war, and then went to school.
