Formula successful sikvelizatsii passing into trikvelizatsiyu, invented long ago the father of all things – George Lucas, the Demiurge of the Great trilogy. She is a formula, both simple and ingenious, so that even a surprise that the all-around do not do. Do not shoot great trilogy.
Most of the preference scheme of the ordinary prolongation – provided that the public swallowed their liquor, do not sobered up and will not abandon the proposal to slap another one. Something similar happened with Steven Sommerse – sobering public and its attendant symptoms akkurat happened to "Van Helsing." The audience, which danced on the tables, using a cocktail "The Mummy Returns", suddenly caught up with the desire to totally problevatsya after the adoption of the chest, "Transylvanian special." Satiety, a pancake.
More gifted directors – such as James Cameron – prefer to continue to rent, fully replacing the genre orientation. Not quite honestly, but it works – though only until the wits, who decides that a comedy – exactly the genre that will bring the series into a new orbit.
Totally different thing when a director in his head sits a sharp thorn thought in three parts. The second film may be like "Empire, causing a retaliatory strike" and "The Matrix: Reloaded." The latter option – no nonsense tragedy. It's better, by God, to be simple and even somewhat charming laughingstock.
Accidents and smoky funnel cases where the sequels do staging posts en route to the third part. When the desire to conquer the peak, or search for new (and why should she, he wondered, to conquer or to seek, if the viewer is already on the hook?) – Lost. Simply go the same way, only this time in the company of clowns from the big top or the front orchestra, than again to climb the steep and tempt fate. In short, it suffices to match – and the trick is done.
Sorry for stretching the opening preamble, but to know what is unique, "Dead Man's Chest" as a film-extension – is vital. In the first place to mitigate the explosion of impressions from the meeting.
What's in the "Pirates" remnants of the original? Just something a couple of things. Visual range still looks juicier than shown in television commercials fruit. It seems that the broadcast image comes from some other universe, where the palette is richer, any dust is not as a class, and all things look either freshly prepared or nobly antiquated.
But this – not all. In addition to succulence was added a healthy, reasonable fraction of the theatricality of the structure frame. Unobtrusive cameraman admiration simple household items – such as the cups in the rain – would not make a picture in a still life, and only adds to her life – believe me, no?
Better believe me, for life is real hard hits from the movie high geyser. And we're not on the local action-packed scenes, which, like the cost to assume, are worthy of inclusion in the platinum oldies. Although … Well, since I mentioned this topic of no small importance, we consider it more closely.
Only a local brick-busting action – not only to combine serious action with humor, but also in the duration of the scenes, during which the hearts of the audience relentlessly pounding aki mad, trying to jump out of the chest and fall down from the floor far away – in a more peaceful place. Really, surprisingly zaboristye cocktails are obtained from the local bartender. And one must be called something terribly brutal type wrench on temechku or there, say, "reinforcing a sup." Name, you know, must reflect the effect produced by the body.
What did the stunt coordinator and the operator during the break between the first and second film, we are even afraid to imagine. Well, that is, there is speculation – the operator of a billion and one revising the latest film by Alex Proyas ("I, Robot", loved Dunces "), constantly exclaiming:" Wow, e-my, did not know what you can do so, " and the main stuntman clearly not shied away from illegal herbs, zakinuvshih awareness of the disease in the transcendental region of huge rolling water wheels and flying men-kebabs.
As already mentioned, in addition to enthusiastic sob from the scope of almost any fantasy action-sequent can not look, do not parallel giggling like a real schizophrenic, pumped to the eyeballs laughing gas. Another tradition of the series, to do without it? That's just – I do not remember how much lasted the first duel of Jack and Will? Five minutes, right? And how about a quarter of an hour of nonstop Rubilovo whose members explicitly claim to be a presidential award for quality performance? Sure that your body will cope? If not – is it useful to work out a little. We recommend you do a show bar with a simultaneous reading Terry Pratchett. A similar effect with the film – guaranteed.
The truth is, if the worst happened, and "Dead Man's Chest" were cut to all okromya action, then it would be enough to melt the iron heart muscle expensive edition. But the apocalypse did not happen – the rest of the content is also ignites. According to the new, the special, piratically.
It turned out that predsemochny General Discussion may be concrete truth. What a, a pancake, surprise! Series really took a course on the do not bode well protagonists horizon. For example, they are heroes, somewhere lost their own, as it turned out, not very a precious positivity. Snapped everything – except, perhaps, an eternal hero-martyr of Will Turner. However, the role is clearly found the right destination – and the plot requires at least some character, other times just waiting for the equivalent neighbor put a pillow perdushki in a large scale.
Think, exaggerates, makes the microbe Tyrannosaurus rex? Certainly not.
Jack Sparrow no longer looks like a fine fellow, who sometimes goes to the dark side, but zavsegda remains true Jedi. No, this type is ready to go by printing step on the corpses. No, not even so – in the mountains of corpses. Speaking of which: Meet the new feature supposedly familiar faces – namely, that the mountains, namely, that the corpses. In the first film too was killed, but how would a make-believe (except, perhaps, of the macabre scene in "smashing") and "Dead Man's Chest" has literally cut the throats, and then looks at the audience an appraising look of Davy Jones. Choked on a pop, not stuck in the throat is popcorn? Oh, and then another? Well and good.
Of course, there were no casualties. In order to tell a story, submit new characters and old characters in a spicy sauce, almost all equidistant from the plot. Be brave – and Captain Jack Sparrow as well. So if you expected the sequel to the banal give you a double portion of beloved buccaneer with pickles, keep in mind – none of that.
Another thing is that to drop tears on this occasion it is not necessary, because the return is given a lot – luxury villain, chokes on the tragedy itself Barbossa, more pronounced on the premise that it should be regarded as a threat – sea monsters or a soulless people … And much, much more.
In conclusion, I want to say that, probably, director Gore Verbinski choice in the development of the franchise let's not easy. It is not excluded that some fans of the first part innovations seem too revolutionary and radical. Most likely, there are people, raskochegarennye rhythm of the narrative, which will be called the most stupid ending of the movie. One unexpected and totally unpredictable "Pirates" became the film is not for everyone.
But their fans still easy to distinguish from ordinary people. They are waiting for manic May next year, constantly whistling little changed Zimmer tune (though in fairness it is worth noting – there is a "Dead Man's Chest" are two very smart new songs!) And repeatedly go to the cinema on the same film.
How do we not know? After all, we – some of them.
