"What's missing?" Graham couldn't help but repeat William's words, but he also thought about it himself, indeed, after watching the first episode of "Pacific War", the familiar recipe and familiar taste did not seem to have the same enthusiasm as when he watched "Band of Brothers". Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info So, what is missing?

William frowned, unable to say why, "I don't know, but I always feel like there's a little less chemistry." "None of them are professional film critics, they are just enthusiastic audiences.

William and Graham looked at each other, and for a moment they fell silent. Before the start of the broadcast, the mood was high, but at this time suddenly stuck in mid-air, I felt like I couldn't get down, this feeling was quite embarrassing, "I don't mean I don't like it," William explained, "To be honest, I think the show is still very exciting, I still like it, it's a work made by Spielberg and Hanks, but it's ......"

It was this "but" that was a little overwhelming, and Graham suddenly proposed, "Why don't we go to the Yahoo community and IMDB and read the reviews?"

"Great idea!" William rejuvenated, and as a fan of "Band of Brothers", he hoped more than anyone that "War in the Pacific" would make a second classic.

So William ran back to the room quickly, like a tornado, Graham followed, and the Taylors sitting in the living room didn't have time to react, only heard a messy footsteps going up the stairs, "Billy, how is the show?

Quickly open the Yahoo community, the first place in instant popularity is the discussion post of the first episode of the "Pacific War", less than ten minutes have passed since the end of the episode, and the discussion post has more than 500 floors, and it is estimated that a small number of fans are participating in the discussion while watching the live broadcast.

Click on the post,The front floor is as expected,All of them are just excited about the show finally starting,It wasn't until more than fifty floors later that people began to discuss the series,William and Graham are obviously not the only two viewers who feel abnormal,In the post,Many people expressed similar doubts,Always feel that the series lacks some sparks;Among them, there are also several radical fans who scolded,The quality of the "Pacific War" is really terrible, and it is fundamentally related to "Band of Brothers" Not on a horizontal line, it's just rubbish.

It wasn't until the two hundred and thirty-first floors that a long reply made William stop pulling down the mouse.

"There is no doubt that because of the existence of such a divine drama as 'Band of Brothers', all the audience has great expectations for the 'Pacific War', but after actually watching it, there will inevitably be a gap. I have a different view.

The first episode of "Band of Brothers" didn't make people stunned, the excellence of the series comes from the completeness and sublimation of the content of the ten episodes of the whole series, and then when I re-watched the first episode, the taste was completely different, so the impression of the first episode was also sublimated. Now that 'War in the Pacific' has only aired the first episode, it is obviously biased to rely on the first episode to judge the death penalty for the entire miniseries.

The first episode of 'War in the Pacific' always feels like something is missing, and in a nutshell, it's the core idea.

In 'Band of Brothers', each episode has a core idea, and even each episode has a different protagonist and core character, which makes the main story line of the series very condensed, and the narrative rhythm and focus are highlighted, but in 'Pacific War', the first episode has no core idea, which also causes the content to be a little scattered and the rhythm to be a little unbalanced.

The first episode can be divided into three parts, the first part is about the daily life before departure, the second part is the rhythm of adaptation when you just landed on Kuah Island, and the third part is about the thrill after the first encounter broke out.

The focus of these three parts is different, especially the three protagonists in the first part, and only one is left in the next two parts, causing the audience to wonder: is the story not complete, and the sublimation of the theme condensed in Robert Lezzy has not been able to deal a fatal blow.

It can be seen that what the 'Pacific War' wants to highlight is the contrast on the psychological level, the warmth of the family between the battlefields and the cruel bloodshed after entering the war, and the killing game before the end not only shocked Robert Lezzie, but also shocked every viewer in front of the TV, and the distortion of human nature by war is really chilling.

From this point of view, the series still continues the quality of the previous work, but unfortunately, first, the expression is superficial, and second, the content of the first episode is already crowded, resulting in the character image is not full enough, and it is really difficult to quickly want to be in place in the first episode.

'Band of Brothers' excels at showing different sides of the war in each episode, looking at all aspects of the battlefield from different perspectives, and each flesh-and-blood character is built together to form a powerful shock to Brothers in Arms, and it can now be guessed that 'Pacific War' intends to focus on three characters - although this idea is still to be proven in later episodes, the disadvantage of this is that it weakens the team spirit, and the advantage is that each character will become fuller and more vivid.

Personally, I am full of expectations for the "Pacific War", if "Band of Brothers" shows the reality and cruelty of war, then can "Pacific War" show the impact of war on everyone? If it succeeds, then the 'Pacific War' is fully qualified to go toe-to-toe with the 'Band of Brothers'!

Therefore, it is too early to draw conclusions about the pros and cons of the series. 'Band of Brothers' is so good that 'War in the Pacific' at least deserves our time and chance, and a ten-episode miniseries isn't too difficult, isn't it?

It is worth mentioning that among the three protagonists who have appeared so far, the most impressive is not Robert Lezzie, who supported the main line of the first episode, nor John Baslon, the war hero known to all Americans, but the young master of the rich family. Is anyone like me?

At the moment of his appearance, the sunshine and time seemed to be unable to help but stop for him, and the regret, anger, struggle, bitterness, and longing left in those translucent eyes easily outlined the character! I can't believe it, I am now already looking forward to what will happen when he goes to the battlefield! He shouldn't be cannon fodder, right? He looks like one of the three protagonists!

This long reply sparked a follow-up heated discussion, some people agreed, some refuted, some scoffed, some scolded, some analyzed rationally, some watched and ate melons, and some people suddenly realized, and the boiling dispute was not lively.

However, there is one thing that most people agree with: this is a mini-series, and you need to watch the direction of the later episodes to make a comprehensive judgment.

Only a small number of avid viewers believe that the poor quality of the first episode has ruined the entire series, which is unforgivable for the brother chapter of such a divine drama as "Band of Brothers", and they even excitedly called on netizens to go to IMDB to score a score for "Pacific War". However, judging from the current scoring trend of IMDB, there are really not many viewers who are willing to respond to this call.

After reading this reply, William suddenly became enlightened, "I see!" His eyes opened up again, "Obviously, this time Spielberg and they are more ambitious, and they want to explore something more profound, because they can't repeat the set of 'Band of Brothers', and in terms of comradeship, there is no work that can surpass 'Band of Brothers'." So, the first episode is just the beginning!"

William couldn't help but clench his fists, and his mood flew again, because of the super high expectations before, he was so eager that the first episode was so exciting that it was suffocating. But in fact, it's impossible because it's a miniseries, not a movie. Even "Band of Brothers", its excitement and classics are a patchwork of ten episodes.

"No wonder!" Graham also realized, "I said that when I watched it, it was exciting, mixed and wonderful, but after watching it, I felt that something was missing." Graham bumped William on the shoulder and said excitedly, "The last scene was really well filmed, I think it was even better than 'Band of Brothers', and it reminded me of the scene where Winters shot the lone German soldier!"

"What impressed me the most, the same as that netizen......" William leaned over to the screen and looked at it, the registered account is called "Brando Mania", it seems that it should be a Marlon Brando fan, "It's the young master of the rich family." Then William chuckled, "Because he was the only unlucky guy in the first episode, and he didn't succeed in wanting to join the army." ”

Graham couldn't help but roll his eyes speechlessly, "According to you, what impresses me the most is the girl Robert Lezzy wanted to write to, she is so beautiful. ”

"You see, I'm not the only one who thinks so. William flipped through the post again and pulled Graham to continue browsing.

"Brando is fanatical, and I am too, the young master of that rich family is really brilliant, his performance seems to be born with his own halo, which makes people can't take their eyes off it at all!"

"Doesn't anyone think that the young master of the rich family is really too handsome? God, he is riding a bicycle and flying in the wind, but his eyes reveal a desperate heartbreak, and I am almost melted for him. ”

"That young master from a rich family is really outstanding, Robert Lezzie has a lot of inner drama performances, but he always feels that the strength is wrong, and that young master has only appeared for less than three minutes, and he easily portrayed the character, to be honest, I can't wait to see him go to the battlefield!"

"What is the young master of a rich family, his name is Eugene! Eugene! I have shouted many times in the TV series whether it is good or not, ignorance. ”

"Does anyone know who plays the young master of the rich family?"

Discussion, discussion, it seems that the building is starting to crooked.
