Chapter 80: The Gladiator Premiere (End)

Brent and Haven's attention returns to the movie, and Maximus' conversation with the old emperor makes these experts smile a little impatiently—an old emperor who is about to end his life suddenly wakes up? But from a professional point of view, this episode is crucial in explaining Maximus's fanaticism for the emperor and establishing a heroic character.

The average viewer will not know what kind of emperor Marcus is, nor will they know that he single-handedly ended the future of the Great Roman Empire, and their impression of Marcus may have to rely on the movie "Gladiator", a large number of people will say that Marcus is a great emperor who declares righteousness - after they have seen the movie.

"Is there a showdown?"

On the big screen, Commodius walked into Marcus's tent, his steps were not steady, he did not look like a well-mannered Roman prince - this would not be a design to criticize his lack of manners, it does not matter whether a person's heart, character and manners are thoughtful or not, in fact, too many people who appear to be incapable of making mistakes have become careerists and rebels.

This may only indicate something.

Commodius walked up to the sculpted head of Marcus, and he reached out and gently stroked his face.

"No, no, no, after that, how can you show such a deep affection for your father, it is so intense—obviously suppressed." Brent frowned, he felt that Daniel's one-man show was overdone, according to the character design of Commerdius, he should not have such reverence and love for Marcus, "Still inexperienced, but at least not smashed." ”

Marcus suddenly appeared behind Commodius, and he turned abruptly, the obscurity that flashed in his eyes did not escape Brent's eyes.

Marcus gave the result almost cruelly - you will not inherit the position of Roman emperor.

"Why is that?" Brent stared at Daniel's expression carefully, his facial muscles and the corners of his mouth were shaking slightly, and even the upper half of his chest was rising and falling sharply, indicating that his emotions were in a state of drastic change at the moment.

Loss, anger, resentment—this qiē explanation is not convincing when Brent sees Commodius's eyes.

The reappearance of that obscurity just now gradually permeated the entire eyes, except for these eyes, his qiē expression and micro-movements were telling the audience that he was like a son abandoned by his father.

But these eyes tell the audience that he is not surprised, nor is he completely angry, and his feelings are not as intense as they appear.

Why?

The exalted position of the Roman emperor was about to leave him, and why he reacted this way - what is hidden is real, this is a law.

Brent felt that he had just asserted a little prematurely.

The scene was supposed to be as expected, but now it seems that Daniel doesn't intend to contribute a mediocre good play.

Commodius's crying and Marcus's fatherly attitude made Brent's sense of anticipation even higher.

Because when Commodius said those words, he was not focused with tears in his eyes, and if I were talking to you, and I was facing you, I would have looked at you wholeheartedly, but Commodius did not.

So who exactly is he talking about?

Say it to himself!

Brent reacted immediately.

At the beginning, Commodius's expression of emotions for Marcus's sculpture was too strong, and his calm eyes when he heard that he could not succeed to the throne, and the cry at this moment was actually said to himself, all of which foreshadowed a little.

He's ready to do something.

One thing he needs to keep hinting at himself, keep convincing himself.

Brent had already guessed, and he was waiting to see when the results of this qiē foreshadowing would be revealed.

Commodius took Marcus into his arms, and he kissed Marcus on the forehead.

Then, Brent saw that his eyes had changed, and so had his expression.

My heart lifted up at once.

"In order to get your love, I will not hesitate to wash the world in blood." Commodius finally had a pained expression on his face, but his tone was cold and sharp.

Marcus began to struggle wildly with his hands in his hands, and his head was held tightly in his arms by Commerdius.

Brent exhaled lightly.

He has a bit of a sense of satisfaction, just such a short scene, even the mood of a veteran film critic like him is a little ups and downs, which is indeed wonderful. Of course, this has something to do with the fact that he has relatively low expectations for Daniel, if it was Russell Crowe's role, he wouldn't have set it to be a mediocre episode at the beginning, and naturally he wouldn't have enjoyed the thrill of ups and downs.

But that's where the surprise lies, and no one can avoid their contempt for a new face, and it also means that the surprise of a new face will affect a very wide range of people.

That's Daniel Sandler's success.

The plot enters the rhythm, and Brent will not keep thinking about Daniel's acting skills, the old-fashioned drama - the hero is not rewarded.

Maximus rejected Conmerdius's offer and escaped from the guards, only to find his cherished family no longer alive and his home a scorched earth.

Heroes are necessarily tragic - this is the iron law.

Gladiator! Maximus was picked up and became a gladiator.

Ridley's prowess is truly extraordinary, and these plain and powerful shots reveal a brutal gladiator world where it's as simple as winning or dying. But it's not without flaws.

It seems that Ridley wants to arrange a friend for Maximus at the bottom - a gladiator played by Germaine Hansu, who always gets some nourishment from the little people when the hero falls, and it is easy to brew sensational scenes.

But it's a pity that the director didn't do it very successfully, of course, it may be that he is careless about this scene itself, because it seems that the setting of this friendship is indeed a bit arbitrary, loose and unattractive,

This should be a failure. Brent pondered that Germain's performance was still very good, which provided some help in covering up this failure.

The hero is hibernating, he is bound to return to Rome, but now is not the time - everyone can't help but start looking forward to it, this is the innate advantage of the theme, the hero will always succeed in revenge, so when to start revenge has become a natural focus of expectation.

Brent found himself even more excited about the role of Commerdeus.

It was Daniel who added a lot of surprises to his movie-watching experience.

The new emperor returned to the throne and competed with the Senate, Daniel's eyes and the short sword in his hand were simply accurate.

This paragraph is actually an upright acting skill.

A young man of courage, and indeed a man of great talent! Brent couldn't remember the first time he had been surprised by Daniel's appearance, but he knew full well that many people's plans were about to change, and that the young man's interpretation of Commerdius had so far been perfect.

Some roles may really be tailor-made for certain actors.

This is the greatest luck and chance of an actor.

Maximus soon returned to the Roman capital with the party, and the road to revenge had begun—this was the thought of everyone.

A bloody fight begins in the Colosseum, and the plot enters an exciting plot - that is, **.

Maximus's anger and forbearance, his deep-seated love for Rome, Princess Lucilla's good and evil, and the positions and performances of members of the Senate such as Igus, as well as the cruelty and insecurity of the new emperor of Rome, all appeared.

The beautiful and textured shots have made film critics deeply involved, and although their minds are still almost instinctively tracing words, it is difficult to concentrate on a certain detail and a certain actor.

A good movie that is catchy enough.

This became the consensus.

Brent looked at the time, and there were still ten minutes left in the film.

This should be the last wave of the plot, and the grievances will end here.

"Open dueling?" Brent's expression was a bit complicated, which could not be said to be unreasonable, and it clearly made sense for a new emperor who wanted to gain the reverence of the citizens of Rome to defeat someone who challenged his position. But this qiē is not so reasonable, in terms of force value, Commodius and Maximus are not of the same magnitude.

He has the upper hand, does he really want to bet on a duel?

It seems that the movie is still going to be naïve in the end and give the new emperor a little positive color.

These conjectures were dispelled after Commodius had a hole in Maximus' back.

Sensible, this would save viewers from doubting the IQ of Commoddius.

Whether Maximus in his hand can still beat Commodius is in suspense, and after all, he still has a large circle of guards.

The last conscience of the captain of the guard, and the dagger he hid in his arm guard in violation of the rules, ended the life of Commodius once and for all.

The death of the new emperor heralds the end of the movie

The film ends with the hero's nostalgia for his beloved wife and son, as well as the grief after death - an unsurprising but qualified ending design.

The lights came on, and the screening room burst into long-lasting applause.

There's a bit of a genuine effort in this, and while some are worried about how to deliver it, they do think Ridley Scott has delivered an Oscar-caliber work.

Russell Crowe also delivered an Oscar-level performance.

As for Daniel Sandler, it may only be said that a new star will shine in the starry night sky of Hollywood.
