Sono state pubblicate online le prime reazioni alla visione di Gemini Man, la pellicola in 120FPS 4K e 3D diretta da Ang Lee.
A giudicare dai commenti le coreografie dei combattimenti sono fantastiche.
There’s one scene in #GeminiMan where old Smith and young Smith have an all-out brawl with one another. It’s pretty amazing to watch. I asked Ang Lee how they executed that sequence, and he said it was so involved it took 9 months to complete. 9 months for a fight scene! pic.twitter.com/aPq0RwTRSD

Vibrating from excitement after seeing GEMINI MAN, it uses 120FPS and 3D to create some of the most exciting action sequences I’ve seen in years. Happy to see Ang Lee return to action, the choreography feels intense because it looks so realistic pic.twitter.com/qXM3lq1sn2

Can’t wait to rewatch this to dissect the action, there’s a motorcycle chase that feels as visceral as the cab chase from Bourne Supremacy, whew

A livello tecnico il film fornisce uno spettacolo che poche volte abbiamo visto nelle sale e che merita di essere visto in 3D.
Just saw Ang Lee’s #GeminiMan and it’s legit. Old Will Smith vs young Will Smith equals a visually visceral experience that’s absolutely wild to watch at times. Again, Ang Lee delivers bold, unique action that’s on par w/ the best. See it in 3D, for sure. pic.twitter.com/wRNlNfJQ9w

Just saw the final cut of Ang Lee’s #GeminiMan and it’s probably the only movie I’d ever say absolutely must be seen in 3D (and 4K, if possible). I’ve never seen anything like it — it felt like I was inside the movie.

Also, we got to see the film in 120 FPS 3D. It’s clear and bright, as any good 3D should be, but doesn’t push the envelope like Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk did.

Ang Lee’s #GeminiMan is a huge breakthrough for 120FPS presentation. Action sequences are breathtaking in the format. Will Smith’s winning performance shows the level of scrutiny a real movie star can stand up to. If you don’t see it in theaters you’re missing a true experience. pic.twitter.com/k6nlyH6kD9

The script is a bit generic, but I think the visuals and Smith’s performance overcomes it. In terms of groundbreaking visual experiments, this feels as important as Avatar. The HFR is vastly improved from Billy Lynn, and the young Smith CG looks surprisingly accurate

GEMINI MAN is a technical marvel. In its high frame rate of 120fps, the action sequences legitimately took my breath away. The 20-year-old script leaves something to be desired but seeing a young Will Smith pull off the dramatic moments was a treat.

Le interpretazioni che hanno più colpito sono quelle di Will Smith e di Mary Elizabeth Winstead.
Just saw #GeminiMan and it’s wiiiiiiild. The young version of Wil Smith is incredible, plus some truly beautiful action sequences and a really great performance by Mary Elizabeth Winstead. The only 3D movie I’ll ever endorse.

On the bright side, it feels like we’re headed for a Mary Elizabeth Winstead renaissance, as she becomes an action lead. This has me uber excited for her in #BirdsOfPrey.

Gemini Man è un fenomenale thriller d’azione interpretato da Will Smith nei panni di Henry Brogan, un assassino d’élite, che viene improvvisamente preso di mira e perseguitato da un misterioso giovane agente che sembra poter predire ogni sua mossa.
Mary Elizabeth Winstead presta il volto a Danny, una collega di Henry che viene incaricata di sorvegliarlo, ma finisce per fare squadra con lui. Clive Owen è invece uno degli antagonisti, capo del programma di clonazione. Chiudono il cast Benedict Wong, Linda Emond, Ralph Brown e Theodora Miranne.
Gemini Man, prodotto da Jerry Bruckheimer, David Ellison, Dana Goldberg e Don Granger, verrà distribuito nei cinema americani dal 11 ottobre 2019.
