My intuitive feeling is that this movie is relatively average and quite noisy. When the film was released in theaters, it received a lot of positive reviews. There are some who really care about each other and the director, and there are also those who are doing business. There are many people who have sympathy with director Li Yang. Deep inside every middle-aged man, there is a young man hidden inside. Li Yang's movie, about a boy who travels to the future to save the earth, can certainly satisfy everyone's teenage dreams.
But this movie is just a joke after all. I saw an announcement for this film saying that it was very difficult to shoot the film. As the filming continued, there was no money. The director later failed to complete some scenes, and there was no money for the special effects. Judging from the content of the main film, this is actually true. Li Yang's "Safe Evacuation from the 21st Century" is actually a typical "Hollywood script but no Hollywood special effects".
You must not think that "there is a Hollywood script" is a good saying. Hollywood's scripts in recent years have become heavily formulaic and streamlined, and you can see the finale at a glance. The main narrative line of this "Safe Evacuation from the 21st Century" is also typical of Hollywood. The young hero travels through time, encounters bad guys, and then fights. In the end, it is to save the earth. A large number of superhero movies in Hollywood are carved from this template.
"Safe Evacuation from the 21st Century" written and directed by Li Yang is also a similar template. After the male protagonist travels through time and has various adventures, he knows who the villain is and how the villain will harm the earth. Then, he and other decent characters Together, unite to fight the villains and save the earth. There are a lot of these kinds of scripts in Hollywood. This movie by Li Yang is wrapped in the stuff of youthful dreams. In fact, it is also the content that Hollywood scripts are good at manipulating, and there is nothing new.
However, if Hollywood shoots this kind of script to save the earth, it will definitely be for special effects. They know what the point of this kind of thing is. Established movie fans watch how the protagonists fight against the villains. Therefore, when this type of movie is shot in Hollywood, it will definitely end up crackling with lightning and become a simple popcorn movie. "Safe Evacuation from the 21st Century" directed by Li Yang, because he didn't have much money, so he could only scribble on the character fights.
The film’s current sloppy way of resolving fights is a double-edged sword. Movie fans who like it will think that this style is unique and deliberately sloppy. Some movie fans think that you are fooling me. I have seen what the fights in popcorn movies look like. You just don’t have money for special effects.
Some fans think this movie is good because everyone is willing to regard scrawling as beauty. There are similar examples on online platforms. For example, Erlong Lake's Zhang Hao , the earliest online movie shot, was his first one. It was very sloppy, but everyone thought it was original. Another example is Nanfang Chen Xiang's six-thirty online joke videos, which also use scrawling as their beauty, and have also gained the love of many grassroots viewers.
It doesn’t matter whether it’s scrawled or if you have money for special effects. The protagonists are fighting for world peace. This idea is not new. In other words, the core of this film is not interesting. Li Yang also knows this, so he needs to shout a slogan in the film - Don't become bad when you grow up. Moreover, this slogan is shouted repeatedly in the film. The more they shout repeatedly, the less confident the screenwriter and director are in their own films. A typical primary school student's work tries hard to stick to the central idea in the end.
Therefore, I think Li Yang's "Safe Evacuation from the 21st Century" is a very noisy movie, not very interesting. If you watch it for fun, it will be okay and it will be embarrassing.
