    Robert Rodriguez has lately been a purveyor of grindhouse-homage laughs with his Machete franchise, and jaded 2D thrills in the Sin City movies. Now he’s in charge of something more conventional and colossal, co-written and co-produced by James Cameron. It’s a coming-of-age melodrama about young love in the postapocalyptic future, centring on a young woman called Alita with “the face of an angel and a body built for battle”, and involving plenty of human-slash-cyborg martial arts.

    近来,罗伯特·罗德里格兹拍摄了很多向剥削电影致敬的桥段,像是《弯刀》系列和已经让人腻味的《罪恶之城》电影系列里的 2D 惊悚场面,它们都沦为了笑柄。如今,他和詹姆斯·卡梅隆合作,共同担任编剧以及制作人,负责一个更为传统、更为庞大的电影项目。这部成人礼式的煽情电影讲述了年轻人之间的爱情故事,故事背景设定在末世之后的未来,影片主角是一个叫做阿丽塔的年轻女人,她有着“天使般的脸庞和为战斗而打造的身体”。此外,该片还包含了许多人类和机械改造人的武打情节。

    Alita: Battle Angel is based on the Japanese manga series Gunnm by Yukito Kishiro and like the remake of Ghost in the Shell it has been the subject of whitewashing complaints. Well, the original is set in Kansas, a location that here shifts to an indeterminate polyglot megacity of the 26th century. Its lead female character has the distinctive stylised big-eye look, a manga convention that is, perhaps, neither Asian nor western.

    电影《阿丽塔:战斗天使》根据木城雪户的日本漫画系列《铳梦》改编。和同样翻拍自日本漫画的《攻壳机动队》类似,《阿丽塔:战斗天使》也因为选择白人演员来扮演非白人的角色而饱受批评。好吧,漫画中的原始设定是在美国的堪萨斯州,影片则将故事发生地改成了 26 世纪的一座架空的多元化大都市。电影的女主角有着风格独特而不太现实的大眼睛,这类日漫艺术风格可能既不东方,也不西方。

    The extravagant cartoon violence involves damage to metal and circuitry rather than flesh and blood, which explains the 12A rating and the air of teen innocence that surrounds an essentially conservative film.

    这种用卡通形式表现出来的夸张暴力仅限于对金属和电路的破坏,而不是血腥的场面,这就解释了它的分级被划为 12A:即 12 岁以下儿童需成人陪同才能观看这部电影,同时也解释了为什么这一部本质上保守的电影却包含着青少年天真烂漫的气息。

    Alita: Battle Angel is a film with Imax spectacle and big effects. But for all its scale, it might end up being put on for 13-year-olds as a sleepover entertainment. It doesn’t have the grownup, challenging, complicated ideas of Ghost in the Shell.

    《阿丽塔:战斗天使》是一部兼具 IMAX 壮观场面和宏伟特效的影片。要不是因为其宏大的规模,这部电影也许会沦为放给 13 岁小孩观看的过夜消遣电影。比起《攻壳机动队》,这部电影缺少了成熟的、富有挑战性并且错综复杂的理念。
