Chapter 398: Fast and Furious (Third Update, Big Chapter)
It is different from "Detective Hell" in Charlotte's original world.
In that version, Daddy Midnight did not participate in the final battle.
But now in this magic version of Charlotte, Midnight Daddy is Konstantin's comrade-in-arms.
And the reason for this adjustment is that, on the one hand, as said in the previous shooting, Charlotte didn't want to let Chas get a bento-
He has always been a little superstitious that letting the characters who are responsible for selling cuteness receive bento boxes will reduce the luck of the movie and is not good for the movie as a whole.
Moreover, from the perspective of the plot, if the mastermind behind the scenes can easily kill Chas, then it is not a problem to kill Konstantin, why didn't the other party directly kill Konstantin?
And if the person who leads the general's bento is replaced by Midnight Daddy, who is better than Konstantin in terms of magic strength, it is very reasonable.
- Pick the most threatening ones first!
It is precisely because Midnight Daddy is stronger that the mastermind behind the scenes needs to sneak attack and kill him first.
In this way, it is very logical to keep Konstantin for the last big move to save the world.
Besides, Charlotte specially designed a lot of spell skills for Daddy Midnight played by Lawrence Fishburne, and wouldn't it be a waste if he didn't let him play a round?
In short, after taking a slightly nervous Chases to the mansion that was used as a lair by the demons, the three of them went their separate ways-
Chas goes to find a place where the building's fire system stores water, and prepares to throw the treated cross into it, creating endless holy water to weaken the demons;
Konstantin and Daddy Midnight split up to search for the snatched Angela.
In this regard, fortunately or unfortunately, Konstantin did not run into Angela, but broke into the room where a large number of demons gathered at once.
"Go back to hell!"
Konstantin was undaunted and had the grace to ride a thousand.
Of course, his self-confidence is not without reason -
Konstantin stood in a chair and casually used his Zippo lighter to trigger the fire alarm overhead.
Suddenly, the fire water that had been soaked in the cross and had turned into holy water poured down.
"Holy water!?"
The demons, who had originally maintained their human form, suddenly dried up and dissolved as if their faces had been splashed with sulfuric acid.
They screamed in pain, revealing the archetypes of the demons.
Konstantin took the opportunity to raise the sacred shotgun with the barrel of the cross, and began to snipe the weakened demons one by one......
"Cool !!"
Seeing the scene of Konstantin fighting the demon army on the big screen, Emily couldn't help but sigh in admiration.
Although at the instigation or guidance of her father, Emily has watched countless R-rated movies that are violent, bloody, and bloody before she is 18 years old, but she has never seen such an impactful and adrenaline-pumping action scene as this scene now-
In Emily's eyes, Konstantin first blasted the demons away with his holy shotgun, which seemed to be a large-caliber shotgun, and this scene was full of violent exuberance.
And although the demons were weakened, they were not without the power to fight back.
Relying on the strength of their own people, they continued to attack the lone Konstantin, and finally rushed to his close place while he was changing the magazine.
Konstantin didn't have time to shoot again, so he simply picked up the holy shotgun in his hand and used it as a war hammer, shattering the heads of the demons who rushed up with a few blows.
But even so, under the impact of the demons who are not afraid of death, Konstantin can't solve all the problems with a shotgun after all-
In order to avoid being entangled by the demons and unable to fight back, he discarded his shotgun in time and replaced it with the golden finger sleeve that he had used to deal with the demon Balthazar.
In this way, Konstantin avoided the problem of the Holy Shotgun not reacting in time when the demons were close to him.
With the effect of the golden finger cuff, which has an obvious effect on the demon, he can still guarantee to take down a demon with one punch.
It's just that as the fighting closer, the fighting has become more and more fierce......
"In this action scene, the use of the camera can really be said to be a classic!"
As a film critic, Kenneth Turan is not like Emily and other movie fans, who don't know why.
He can see that in this fight scene in which Konstantin is riding a thousand, director Charlotte Booth has made a lot of innovations.
It can be said that this scene can make people look like they are in a bloody situation, and the fighting style that is as sharp as when he destroyed the demon Balthazar before is certainly a contribution.
But what really plays a decisive role is actually the director's use of fast and slow shots.
From the very beginning of the battle, when Konstantin bombards the demons with a holy shotgun, the speed of the film's camera is quietly accelerating.
By the time he changed into the golden finger cuffs and fought the demons hand-to-hand, the speed was even faster.
Konstantin's movements, like real hand-to-hand combat in the real world, can often be completed between lightning and flint, making the viewer dizzying.
But because the lens is used well, every fight action can be shown very clearly.
In this way, in a very short period of time, the audience will be shocked by a large number of sharp action pictures, and it is naturally very easy to secrete adrenaline at high speed, and become more and more excited along the action scenes in the movie.
And when the action in the picture is fast enough to further stimulate the audience's adrenaline secretion, the movie will switch to a long shot in due course, or simply use a close-up slow motion to soothe the audience's nerves and enhance the expressiveness of the picture by the way-
For example, Konstantin changed into a golden finger cuff and smashed the head of a demon rushing in front of him with a single punch, using a slow-motion close-up.
In this close-up, the demon's shattered head and shattered teeth are clearly visible, and the picture of it gradually turning into ashes similar to volcanic ash in the process of flying shattering makes the audience clearly realize that this is the demon.
After that, the film returns to the normal speed of the camera again, and then spends up from normal to extremely fast again......
It can be said that in this fight scene that takes several minutes, this kind of fast and slow change from slow to fast appears several times, making the audience's nerves constantly oscillate between the peaks and troughs, and the tension gradually accumulates.
In particular, when Konstantin threw out the holy shotgun in the late stage of the fight and was gradually cornered by the demons, many viewers became nervous as if they were there.
Fortunately, Konstantin in the movie always has a back hand-
At the critical moment, he picked up the chair on the ground—the same one that had set off the fire alarm on which he had stood earlier—and smashed it on the nearest demon, and the broken chair swept away several nearby demons.
Then, he took the opportunity to pull out a short silver staff—
"Dragon's Breath Fire Staff!"
Emily has a strong memory of this fire-breathing metal staff, after all, it is the weapon that Johnny Depp's Beeman gave to Konstantin at the beginning, and Konstantin used it to force off the demons that attacked him......
Konstantin's use of the Dragon's Breath Rod was cleverly chosen, as he leaned his back against the corner and shot directly at the demons with the flames from the Rode.
And the demons, because they all flocked to Konstantin in the corner, were mostly huddled together, and they were suddenly spewed by the raging flames.
"Ahhh!!h
Under the scorching heat of the flames with the power to ward off evil spirits, the demons turned into ashes.
And after spewing out the Dragon's Breath Fire Staff or stored flames, Konstantin did not discard them.
He kicked straight back into the corner of the wall, jumped out with the help of his strength, and in one fell swoop down a demon that had not been burned by the flames, and plunged the silver staff into its eye.
The demon howled and turned to ashes, but Constantine took advantage of the momentum and rolled back to the side of the holy shotgun he had dropped.
He grabbed his shotgun and quickly swept away the last few remaining demons......
However, Konstantin was not possessed by "infinite bullets" after all, and when the last demon was left, he finally ran out of bullets in his gun.
Obviously, this situation was beyond Konstantin's expectations.
And just when he was stunned because he didn't react after pulling the trigger, the only remaining demon had already smirked and pounced.
"Bang!!"
The sound of gunfire stunned the demon for a moment, and then he turned to ashes.
"Hey!"
- Konstantin looked up, but it was Chas, who had arrived in time after placing the cross in the jug of fire water, fired the gun.
"This is probably the highlight of my character's performance in this movie, right?"
Seeing this, Joseph Gordon-Levitt felt a little proud in his heart.
At this point, his breathing was a little rapid.
The adrenaline-pumping fight scene just now also made him very excited to watch, so much so that when this scene ended, he, like many people, had the illusion that he had finished a strenuous exercise.
- Some tired, some excited, some comfortable.
"It's like the feeling after XXOO. 」
Well, this description of Joseph is not a pipe dream.
After all, in the United States in this era, there are not a few teenagers of his age who have experienced it.
- What's more, Joseph is still in the entertainment industry.
The only thing that puzzled him was that along with this intense fight scene, there was also a high-pitched rock music as an accompaniment.
This rock music is not very beautiful, but the heavy metal texture and the almost roaring voice of the lead singer are very much in line with the shot just now.
It's just—
"Why does this lead singer sound so much like Keanu? Mr. Director won't really agree to his request, right?"
Although he can only be regarded as a small supporting role in the crew of "Hell Detective", Joseph, as a child star who has been mixed in Hollywood since he was a child, is very eye-catching.
He vaguely remembered that after the filming was completed, Keanu Reeves once volunteered to recommend his Sirius band to the director for the soundtrack.
Of course, this request was politely declined by Mr. Director.
After all, even a small character like Joseph has heard that Keanu Reeves loves rock and roll, but that musicality is ......
Anyway, his Sirius band, the level is like that.
But now it seems that Mr. Director finally used Keanu Reeves's Sirius Band on this soundtrack. And—
"It's not bad!"
Richard Manson can naturally also hear Keanu Reeves' voice in the soundtrack.
To him, the level of this rock 'n' roll is actually quite low, and Keanu Reeves's Sirius Band did not play extraordinarily.
However, this piece of rock music, which should be very ordinary, with the blood-pumping fight scenes, is surprisingly appropriate-
"It's just a blast!!"
After watching this action scene, Diana and Kate, who was sitting next to her, both flushed with excitement on their faces.
Two detective ladies from the FBI grabbed each other to control the trembling sensation.
If you look at it with suspicion, others are likely to think that they have just done something......
"This scene is actually learned from the scene in "Ace Agent: Secret Service Academy", where Colin Firth played Hart fights in the church. 」
Charlotte nodded with some satisfaction, he muttered to himself in his heart, but his eyes looked ahead—
At this time, although his body was also watching the premiere in the night attack movie theater, his consciousness had already entered the world of the painting wall.
Now he is sitting in the home that was supposed to belong to Konstantin.
The door of Konstantin's house was open, and a man in a black gown and a high English hat with a somewhat face-like appearance of Gary Oldman was standing in the doorway.
"Piercing male?"
Charlotte asked.
