“Grey film man” was originally the most anticipated spy action blockbuster in this summer. Russell brothers, director of the “Avengers” series, “commander high” Ryan Gosling, “Captain America” Chris Evans, “Bond girl” Anna de Armas, Netflix spent $200 million on production. I didn’t expect the film’s reputation to fail miserably, and the story was too brainless and stupid!
According to the adaptation of the series of novels of the same name by Mark Greene, commander Gao plays Kurt jancui, a criminal who was originally destined to be imprisoned, but was recruited by the CIA and trained as an agent specialized in assassination missions. The character set a beginning with great ambition, but he didn’t expect that the Russell brothers would fool around without grasping the script at all.
Once, after he was on duty, he privately took the USB flash drive with criminal evidence, which attracted the pursuit of everyone. The story is very mundane. At first glance, it looks like a low-end version of “spy shadow” and “suicide squad”, but the front procrastinates slowly, and the character narrative is extremely chaotic and out of control, making people look sleepy!
Even if there is no new idea, the most terrible thing is that the story is boring. The pace in front is slow, and there are a lot of loopholes in the back. What is the fate of the agents in front of “agent 6”? If you don’t explain, you won’t tell me in detail what the criminal evidence is in the USB flash drive. Finally, you just pay the outsourcer “to die” and end up confused.
The U-disk storing the evidence was desperately grabbed by both sides, but it was returned to the hands of the blackened agents and directly destroyed. The villain Lloyd Hansen seemed cold and cruel and flouted the rules, but he fell off the chain at every critical moment. The enemy’s agent team was of a low standard, which was equivalent to making the audience feel lonely.
What about the fighting scene after spending 200 million dollars on production? But it’s not as good as “speed and passion 9”. Shortly after the opening, the plane was destroyed by various items and disintegrated. Commander Gao was able to deal with the wreckage of the plane and the enemy’s personnel, and also pulled the enemy’s parachute in the air, but it was not as thrilling as mysterious sea at the beginning of the year.
During the attack on the Middle Road, the agents organized several waves of people to kill. Wearing terrorist masks and holding heavy firepower weapons, they not only indiscriminately killed dozens of passers-by and police, but also blew up buildings and steam turbines on the road. The scene was extremely hot.
Various heavy armour machine guns and artillery were staged in turn. The villain agents drove cars with machine guns, chased and hit the tram, and several villains also killed the tram. The heroine is also tracked by car, which is simply the soul possession of “explosive shell”. The Russell brothers finally showed their own level of scene control.
However, with heavy firepower and bazookas, the spy villain organization can’t kill commander Gao who is chained to the stone? These details can’t be deliberated basically, and “grey film man” doesn’t have the exquisite plot of Hollywood before. It goes on in a simple and rough way until it collapses!
Later, commander Gao and Anna fought hand to hand with an agent. Unexpectedly, both of them were beaten and chased unsuccessfully, and were robbed. When Anna and commander Gao climaxed, they directly killed the enemy base camp and swept all kinds of guns. Commander Gao also saved the little girl alone. All kinds of hanging fights are much like the low configuration version of Changjin lake!
" The “captain of the United States” villain actually put down the female hostility and fought hand to hand with Commander Gao. He couldn’t fight with his bare hands, so he took out a knife to cheat. As a result, the villain continued to be beaten violently by the hero. Finally, he was killed by his own people, which was surprising.
Hollywood film critics blasted that “if it weren’t for the charismatic power of Ryan Gosling and Chris Evans, the grey film man would be the most unbearable big budget movie in 2022.” Rumors are true!
With $200million burned out, such a director, lineup and scene could have been made into a classic, and made a name in film history like “brave and deadly island”. I didn’t expect that “grey film man” was made a mess more than “speed and passion 9”, which was amazing!
In recent years, Hollywood has been affected by the epidemic and the bad attitude of filmmakers. Big production qualities such as “speed and passion 9”, “black widow”, Liu Yifei’s version of “Mulan”, “eternal family” and “grey film man” have hit the streets one after another, which is sad! I hope Hollywood filmmakers can learn a lesson and try to avoid the birth of such a big bad film.
