Coquettish Rebirth

After shooting such a scene, it can be said that the shots shot in Pittsburgh are basically the same, and the last thing to shoot is just a fight shot. ± Vertex Fiction, such a fighting scene was arranged by Jia Hongjian and the others on the roof of Pittsburgh’s City Hall, where the man playing Bane and Batman’s ex-girlfriend fought against Batman.The result is that Batman nearly fractured his spine, fell into the river next to the city hall, and disappeared.

To be honest, Jia Hongjian was a little nervous before shooting such a fighting scene, because he had never actually shot a fighting scene!Although Jia Hung-chien has never filmed the stunt shots of cranes before, the question is, don’t we have Nolan’s notes before that we can take pictures of them?Although Nolan's shot-by-shot script is not so exquisitely drawn, at least the text description is in place, and there is a simple shot setting that can express the effect he wants, and Jia Hongjian can just shoot according to it.But for such a martial arts scene, there is no way to learn from it, because Nolan himself is not good at filming martial arts scenes!

Originally the third Batman in history, the fighting itself is the biggest weakness in the whole play.The fighting up to the midpoint of the last part has become the tedious left hook, right hook, push down, lifting and throwing in the third part. Because there is really a lack of details but the length must be maintained, it is necessary to work hard with each hit There is a roar, and the piercing impact foley comes to make up the number.As a result, you said "ah", and I said "oh", a scene is full of men's groans and "collision of soul and flesh". Those who know know that this is watching Batman fight, but I don't know Some people still think that this is a pornographic film about gay men!This is what Jia Hongjian said, if Nolan wants to add action scenes to increase easy-to-understand viewability, then he can hire a decent action director, in fact, hire an action director or even a martial arts instructor.The price is not expensive... The action design is not good-looking, which makes it impossible to achieve the effect of "The Matrix" in the play.

And Nolan likes to show fights in this film, punching with his fists, rushing with his head sullen, and falling with his arms around his waist, it is so realistic that it almost becomes a memoir of street fights.It is also filming the so-called "real fighting".But the shit is not as good as the boxing movie "Million Dollar Baby", let alone the "Rocky" filmed by Stallone decades ago!People's "Rocky" is also a boxing movie, even the first 20 minutes is a lengthy opening, people who watch it want to sleep, but it doesn't prevent Stallone from finally becoming popular with such a movie!And "Rocky" has also become a symbol of inspiration in the minds of a generation of Americans!Of course, some people may say that this fight is not good because Batman has old arms and legs. In the third "Batman" in Nolan's history, it was 8 years after the second one. Master En usually walks with a cane...

But the problem is that there are physical limitations if you can't beat it.That also has physical restrictions!There should be various action designs for the legs!If you want to say something realistic or real, Batman is also an ordinary person—please, Batman’s settings also say that Batman is proficient in hundreds of fighting techniques in the world, and that he is the pinnacle of human beings!Is this the effect of the emotional peak of human beings?Fist and kick kung fu can be both realistic, beautifully and imaginatively shot, with the toughness of fists and kicks, the sense of attack and defense, and the eye-catching destructive effect... It can be said that Jia Hongjian thinks that in the third part Too many things are shortcomings, not just fighting, but also the design of the plot.There are also various shots that seem to be very intense switching, but in fact the switching does not talk about anything... It can be said that this is the third part of Nolan's "Batman".It is also a bit similar to the third part of Da Liu's "Three-Body Problem", as if the previous plot was too big, and I was in a hurry to end and had to leave various unsatisfactory places in various places. If the previous chapter is a bit longer, it might be better to have a more eloquent ending.

Like Nolan's signature cross-editing, the tension generated by the interweaving of memories and the status quo.The back and forth echoes can be seen everywhere, the cruel words that the villain said when he defeated himself must be returned to the villain when he defeated the villain, these elements are still there.At the beginning of the film, Mr. Kane's longing for Bell to quit his job and spend the rest of his life in a foreign country is echoed at the end of the film.Create a joint force of looking at each other from afar, time and feelings.Reminiscent of "Good Will Catcher", the protagonist's friend once said, I really hope you are not at home when I come to your house to drink with you, and you will never be there, it means that you have gone far and successfully. At the end of the film, this friend came to the protagonist There was a knock on the door, and the protagonist was gone. The friend smiled thoughtfully and left.It's really well choreographed.

At other times, the cross-editing is a bit dull due to the lack of plot-driven support and the audience's empathy for the characters.For example, in the final episode, the camera repeatedly cuts between Director Gordon hanging on the truck and Batman and other characters, and each time it cuts back to the swaying Director, the content is the same, just to show that the events are happening at the same time ——The plot seems tense, the sound effects are deafening, and the music is intense and surging, but there is no progress.Especially after the habitual bang bang bang bang and cross-editing hypertrophy throughout the story, and then repeatedly watching missiles chasing back and forth, bombs being transported back and forth, characters climbing up and down, and supporting characters talking about this and that... the audience began to look at the watch.Machine display, explosion effects, speeding car chases, group fight scenes, gun battle shots, and shocking sound effects. If you take the above "lords" from Nolan's previous work, please get off the unstoppable "survival chariot" and look at these effects alone. Just an average Hollywood blockbuster.Nolan does not rely heavily on the above elements, but his previous housekeeping skills - duel between two heroes, playing with concepts, complex relationships between several characters, pressing questions about the bottom line of human nature, etc., in this work, they are all diluted and paralyzed in simplicity. Lehe's flat and straightforward narrative is in the middle...

There is even a reduction in the amount of descriptions of the villains, resulting in a qualitative loss in the confrontation process between the pros and the villains, resulting in a lack of comprehension and soul-stirring reflection after watching the movie for a long time without speaking.The villain leader has transformed from an unfathomable and ever-changing dark thinker and actor into a symbolic face; the long and in-depth explanation of the clown has been replaced by a flat overview of Bane; Dao Lai's description is exaggerated step by step, and this work is an understatement from point to point, blunt and cheap.

Then he portrayed Bane as a completely different character from the clown. He used violence and power to enslave people's hearts. This is no problem, but it must be described wonderfully.The villain boss has almost no communication and confrontation. After the riot, he seems to have nothing to do, vague and weak, and can't see the excavation of psychology and human nature.Compared with the clown's subordinates, the thugs are all the same. Whether they are Bain's subordinates or the released prisoners, they have no performance on the outside and no logic on the inside; although the boss shoots and kills for no reason, the younger brothers still do not respond, just like in the game. "Bing," the walking dead, is pale and unconvincing.

Then there is also the metaphor of anarchism or what some people call "Oriental collectivism", which caused a big riot, but it was too pale and weak. Even if you want to satirize some metaphor, can you make it interesting?The inexplicable Bane led everyone to a successful riot?It's that simple?Do you just judge rich people casually in court?Why do you want to make everyone look the same?Why do you want to do this?Nothing is explained, and there is no detailed performance. It is just shown like a formula. The effect of brainwashing is not achieved at all, and it is obviously a drag on the story of the film. Most viewers have no time to delve into it. Alluding to the meaning; in this way, it is hard to say which one is more pros and cons.Bane dryly twists his neck when he sees people, scripted speeches, and low-level criminal methods make the characters boring and mediocre.The big villain was finally bombarded and disappeared within half a second. Without any foreshadowing or signs, he couldn't react—is this the end?The BOSS that everyone respectfully exalts was nothing, and then it was not pursued.

Jia Hongjian didn't know why Nolan made such a film in history, after all, he was never so close to Nolan in history.But in his opinion, such a film may indicate that Nolan's level is temporarily unable to control this subject matter, and his second film was too successful, causing both commercial and word-of-mouth repercussions.And the result, I don’t know if it raised the expectations of the film company, or Nolan’s own expectations, which led to the fact that in the third part, Nolan wanted to make it a little deeper, but he was afraid that it would not be profitable if it was too deep. After getting the money, and then the two accommodate each other until the end, the resulting film is no longer like Nolan's film, but like something made by a rookie director who doesn't know how to balance the weight of business and literature!

Since such a film is now made by Jia Hongjian, of course Jia Hongjian can completely avoid the mistakes made by Nolan in history.This is not to say that Jia Hongjian is much better than Nolan, but that Jia Hongjian is calmer than Nolan - Jia Hongjian is the owner of the film company, and he has no performance requirements for this film!Even he understands that no matter how the film is made, it can actually earn back its cost, because the word-of-mouth of the first two films is really good. Under such circumstances, what else is he worried about?Just shoot in the direction of word of mouth, and shoot directly in the direction of profound boutique!And the popularity of the second film proves that American audiences are actually very receptive to such an elite and profound film?

After all, this is a superhero feature film in itself. This is not a film like "Drug Network" that deeply tells the problems of modern society. The inspiration of the main creator, isn't this just word of mouth?What are we afraid of?As the saying goes, if you don’t want to be strong, as long as you don’t have both ends, as long as you don’t want word-of-mouth and commercial success, then you won’t be as uncontrollable as Nolan!Besides, Jia Hongjian is the boss, who can put pressure on him?If there is no pressure, he is the boss, so he can't control this film?
