Hello, today I will talk about the movie that impressed me.
What is it about? A human policeman (Will Smith) has an orc as an associate. The first orc to be part of the police force after millennia of war between species - and everybody puts pressure on him to leave the police forces, but he resists, despite the clear signs that no one wants him there (except a Force who insists that the orc be a cop).
We are talking about a fantastic urban where three of the four fundamental races of Tolkien's fantastic (humans, orcs, and elves) meet to participate in a class B class thriller of the 1970s. The story is slim but not non-existent - the theme is copied, "two completely different cops work together despite the fact that they are dismayed." The elves are bizarre, half "dark" half too arrogant and superior to integrate cleanly into society, and the orcs seem to me to have been too much copied after an American ghetto and too little original.
I think it's not a brilliant movie, but it's decent. He's brave, even if the racial theme is exaggerated. If the idea of the creator of the series (because there is a sequel) is that he wants to capture racism today, he does not succeed. But I understand that he's beating in that direction, and it's an interesting theme for a fantasy frame. Unfortunately they clustered a little too hard to climb clichés and did not have much time to develop the action.
But the movie is not as bad as the world screams on the internet. On the other hand, I am tired of this attitude in which everyone takes negative reviews and repeats them without thinking. It is further evidence that we are far too likely to repeat the opinions of others without thinking individually about the way we listen to an artistic work.
My verdict is that Bright is a decent start. The second movie will prove whether it's worth pursuing it or not. What's unfortunate is that Will Smith did not say "I'm too old for this shit." Maybe in the second movie.
