The fancy showmanship does not support the point of a movie, in the face of a second creation of the script, Michael Bay just after “Transformers 5” once again proved himself now how bad he is on the control of the pace, so that the creation of this dragging deadly escape.

Michael Bay in the “Ambulance” although as much as possible to play out his ability to show off, the extensive use of drone overhead shots also broadened the film’s vision, but unfortunately from the lack of plot, to the pale characters, all make the film’s intended visual impact in the end seems only to make people feel tired, and hard to sit still.

Based on the remake of the Danish film of the same name, the small format of the subject makes the original film is only 80 minutes long, the original story is not outstanding, and Michael Bay may be found in this story is very consistent with their own style, so took the script of the second creation, the first and most different from the previous film is the film was stretched to 136 minutes in time, as the director of his attempts through a more full story As a director, he tried to give the film a fuller story to fit the depth of the American social reality, but this attempt in my opinion did not become the highlight of the film, but rather make the film become long and empty.

In the original film is the motive of the two robbing the bank is a brother to save his mother, to this version became a retired black veteran of Afghanistan, in order to save his wife was adopted brother Danny pulled down the bank robbery, the two robbed the bank to escape the hijacked ambulance, trying to get rid of the police in Los Angeles in the end of the siege, it seems that the plot because the identity of the main characters rich plot becomes full, but in the finished film is not so. In the movie, although the two brothers do not let people feel brotherly love, desperate robbers are not forced to desperate look, nearly an hour and a half of the so-called highway escape is close to get off the walk, more people criticize the movie is trying to rob the robbers want to rescue the police in the emergency vehicle, and on the other hand, no scruples to other police officers, contradictory settings make the plot seems unwise and scribble.

In special effects, Michael Bay, who is keen on creating thrilling scenes, should not have had any problems if he had played according to his previous standard, but he made a lot of new attempts in this film, but whether it is handheld camera, or drone overhead, the use of this film is not impressive enough, and even too frequent camera switching is offensive, and the story of “Ambulance” itself limits the use of special effects. The story of “Ambulance” itself limits the use of special effects, although the film occasionally thrilling scenes, but this level of thrills again and again, again and again the abuse, to the end has been visually exhausted.

In fact, from the substantial deletion of the original work, it can be seen that Michael Bay has great expectations for this film, behind the thrill of the film, the director wanted to transplant the film to the American soil burst out of a stronger dramatic tension between good and evil human nature should have become the biggest point of the film, but obviously Michael Bay may play special effects, but for how to shape the vivid three-dimensional characters, obviously The film’s rhythm began to collapse in the middle, so that the film ultimately failed to find a fulcrum between the text and the martial arts.

The fancy showmanship does not support the point of a movie, in the face of a second creation of the script, Michael Bay just after “Transformers 5” once again proved himself now how bad his control of the pace, so much so that the creation of this dragging deadly escape.
