The film "Carrier:Legacy "(actors - Ed Skrein, Ray Stevenson, Loan Shabanol, Gabriella Wright, Tatiana Paikovich and others) - a new project by Luc Besson, the result of chaotic changes in the cast and within the group of the creators of the picture.
More than a decade ago, a famous producer(director, director, screenwriter) Luc Besson and director Louis Leterrier showed the world Jason Statham, making him the main character of the cycle of criminal fighters "Carrier". Participation in the trilogy made the actor super popular and very highly paid. Over time, Statham's fees became fabulous, so the creators decided to replace him with Ed Skrein. Now he is the main character in Besson's new brainchild "Carrier: The Legacy". Reviews of the film immediately noted the replacement of the main character, and in a negative way. Scryn is a model rather than an actor, he positively poses, builds eyes and plays with muscles, but he is not categorically perceived as a soldier capable of neutralizing a dozen people in a fight. Depressing and the choice of actress for the role of the protagonist, Lohan Shabanol is not impressive as an actress, while it is not very pretty externally.
This misses the novelty did not end.And the reviews of the film "The Carrier: The Legacy" did not forget to mention another incomprehensible castling, this time among the creators. The director of the picture was little-known director Camille Delamarr, so from the formula for the success of the trilogy there was only Besson. Nevertheless, the "Legacy" outperforms the previous, third part of the cycle, although Ed Skrane proved to be a weak substitute for Jason Staham, despite having left the "Game of Thrones" for the sake of a large screen. But in comparison with the original criminal insurgent of 2002, which made an indelible impression on the audience and gained the status of a cult, the restart of the "Carrier: Heritage" trilogy (the confirmation of the film confirms this) frankly loses.
The first "Carrier" was instantly successful onmany reasons (and Jason Statham's charisma among them). A huge role was played by the participation of the legendary action choreographer from Hong Kong, Corey Yuen, who taught how to properly shoot scenes of hand-to-hand combat. And the unpretentious and battered story of Luke Besson about the silent tough guy has become phenomenally popular. After the triumph the producer decided to develop the obtained formula of success independently, which turned out to be with varying success - the sequel turned out to be a cartoonish one, and the third picture was similar to cutting the most successful moments from the first two. Therefore, the main inspirer decided to restart the cycle with a very modest budget - the film "Carrier: The Legacy." Actors coped with the task set by the director, although there is not one star name among the cast members.
Reviews and reviews of the movie "Carrier:Heritage "is called a few positive moments of the picture. Interesting and intriguing intrigue - Frank Martin and four fighting beauties-girlfriends - this plot conjures up a comparison with the recent "Mad Max" that flatter the film. Introduction to the narrative of the father of the protagonist, Ray Stevenson, causes an association with "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade." And, assuring all those around him that he is an ordinary sales representative, Martin the elder demonstrates excellent combat training and remarkable ingenuity. And the reviews about the film "Carrier: Heritage" did not miss this curious fact.
Former professional military Frank Martin (EdScrien) earns a comfortable existence by doing risky transportation. The hero in certain sectors of society is famous for the observance of agreements, punctuality and laconicity. But by agreeing to a new order, Frank contacts the customer, which involves in embarrassment not only him, but his father, forcing him to confront a whole gang of steep Russian bandits. So you can, without revealing the main intrigue, briefly describe the plot lines of the picture "Carrier: The Legacy."
Reviews, reviews the main problem of "Heritage"call it a story about anyone, but not about the Carrier. Frank Martin is constantly pushed to the background by all the heroes resolutely, and our compatriot Yuri Kolokolnikov, who played the role of one of the villains, including. The performer of the main role is catastrophically short of brutality, he looks like a model, and not a former commando, trained to kill with one glance only. Although in some action episodes this impression is somewhat dissipated. Still, Besson can shoot and set dizzying car chases and brisk melee fights. Evaluating the "Carrier: Heritage", reviews of the film mark the scene of the fight, which occurs in a very narrow corridor, where the hero actively uses all the surrounding objects (cabinets with retractable shelves).
Pleases the fact that during the creation of the filmneed for a cunning and sophisticated installation conditions did not arise, and therefore the camera shook not very much. The picture causes a sufficient number of pleasant associations, it has a lot of frisky action. Therefore, "Carrier: Heritage" reviews of the film is generally called a good film, noting that the cycle has finally ceased to roll into the tartar.
