Zhu xian I (2019)
Story with a lot of potential. But ...
The storyline had a lot of potential. The plot could have been exploited much better. However, this movie wrapped everything very quickly. The battles were not intense and the special effects very poor in quality.
Was this movie actually just a character introduction for an upcoming full series?
Alita: Battle Angel (2019)
Nice effet, attaching story, but...
Finally got to watch the long awaited Alita and in 3D what's more. Being a fan of Japanese animation,I was looking forward to seeing it. Like many I am sure. It was ingenious how Alita's story was presented. I felt attached to her character, merged in her emotions and having this feeling of suppot and compassion.
However, it was only about her. "Obviously" one would say. "Even the movie's title is her name". But being the main character doesn't mean to suppress the rest of the cast. That's what I felt. A movie (in my personal view of course) is a whole. The story, the effects, the different characters and their interaction with each other to lead the events and tell the story.
With all my respect for the great work this movie requested, I felt that the rest of the cast didn't get it's chance or enough attention. It seemed that the focusing was mainly in Alita's effects and parts of the fights. The acting felt dull, the texts not rich or interesting. A lot of silence sentences. What made the movie really heavy and made the viewer feel its long minutes.
Still, I don't want to end this (rather long :) ) review without thanking all the cast and members of the team for their efforts and their work.
Thank you for reading.
