The Minecraft Movie is finally here! Adventurers, are you ready for this pixelated storm? As the most anticipated video game adaptation of the year, the Minecraft Movie has set the global box office ablaze! $300 million! In a short time, it easily surpassed its production costs and broke a bunch of box office records along the way! It’s basically a money-printing machine!
But! Life is always full of “buts”! Just as the box office was soaring, critics collectively started “mining” for flaws, frantically complaining that the movie’s plot wasn’t exciting enough, the fidelity wasn’t high enough, and the characters weren’t three-dimensional enough… The Metacritic score is a pathetic 46! It’s just too horrible to look at!
However, adventurers, don’t be scared off! Ordinary viewers don’t buy the critics’ arguments! CinemaScore B+, PostTrak 4/5 stars! This is the real public opinion! Many viewers said that the movie was great, the special effects were awesome, and it evoked a lot of memories!
So, the question is! Why is there such a “fire and ice” evaluation?
- Our happiness, the critics don’t understand! Critics are all “academic,” pursuing artistry and depth. But what we ordinary players want is happiness! The Minecraft Movie has cool special effects, stunning scenes, and can let us relive the joy of “mining” and “chopping trees” in the cinema, which is enough!
- Nostalgia is priceless! For old players, Minecraft is not just a game, but a memory of youth! Seeing the familiar blocky world, familiar monsters, and familiar music in the movie, I burst into tears instantly! Nostalgia bonus, five-star praise must be given!
- Game adaptations are destined to be “nitpicked”! Adapting video games into movies has always been a difficult problem. If it is faithful to the original, it will be said to be uncreative; if the changes are too big, it will be said to ruin the classic! The Minecraft Movie has done its best, and we must give it a thumbs up!
All in all, the Minecraft Movie is a decent popcorn movie that will allow you to have a pleasant time in the cinema. If you are a loyal Minecraft player, then you can’t miss it even more! Bring your friends and go “mining” in the cinema together!
