17-year-old Josh Hutcherson receives a distress signal from a mysterious island. He goes there with his stepfather (Dwayne Johnson) to find his grandfather. What happens next?
According to the theory of reversing the genes adopted by the movie, here you will find elephants the size of cats, bees riding like a glider, lizards like dinosaurs, and ornamental birds as big as the legendary rook. Rely on it is some cheap optical illusions, along with some fun and humor, that originated from the creator (Louis Guzman) and (Dwayne Janson), who I see more shining in action films.
Even the beginning of the movie, which is the most important part of it, was very weak. Going to a lost island, it is almost legendary, it is always difficult to decipher access to it or its map and coordinates, but here you find everything easy and easy as if you are heading to Tahrir Square, and any road you take will reach It became clear when (Sean) received an encrypted message in Russian from an unknown source, and after a few seconds his stepfather (Hank) could easily reveal to him that it had the word (it's real).
From here, Sean rushes to his review to discover the location of the lost island, and as usual, Hank can easily reveal its location and coordinates by cutting 3 maps from 3 different books and placing them on top of each other, and from here begins their journey accompanied by (Gabato) and his daughter (Kelani). After renting their helicopter, which crashes after being hit by a devastating hurricane, and by chance, the plane drops over the lost island, and from here everyone begins to discover the island and find Shawn's grandfather, missing two years ago, who (Shaun) thinks he sent him that encrypted message.
Was the movie illogical?
Not to mention that modest story and completely unconvincing optical illusions, there are many points that are taken on the director (Brad Piston), the first of which is that his legendary movie is poor in chases between its heroes and strange creatures, which is completely unacceptable, and the strangest thing is when you see a small tree trunk killing a lizard Huge, her hand is only twice the size of that torso. Also, the rise of the Atlantis continent to the surface of the water again is unacceptable, even after their illogical interpretation of the film, as the ocean does not fluctuate with its surface like quicksand in order to pronounce that continent from its bottom to its surface again, no matter how time passes.
Also, the appearance of the electric eel is very exaggerated, and it is crowded with electric charges as if it were a short circuit or manual thunder in the place, and the maximum electric charge of that fish may reach 600 volts, not 1000 as it appeared in the movie in order to activate the submarine battery. Worse than that, the force of Hank's fling of the spear attached to the submarine under the water, appeared as if it came from a hunting rifle and not a human hand, which increases the director's insistence on violating everything that is normal but in an unacceptable naive way.
Thank You
