Saw the film's trailor and immediately grapsed by the concept. The mere collision between alien monsters, Chinese governmental forces, and teenager superhero is already captivating enough, but I was further thrilled by what they accomplished when watching it on the big screen.
The pandemic did greatly impact the world film market and interrupted many film's post productions. As a result, I haven't step in the theatre to watch a blockbuster film for years. But this film finally provided me wiht visually stunning and uniquely designed VFX after years of waiting. Little spoiler here, the monster designs, especially the monster birds are vibrant, dynamic, and horrifying. The aliens are even on another level.
The film's plots are fairly straightforward, but the protagonist's arc is still emotionally empathetic and the supportive characters also show enough emotional depths. A superhero movie on its surface, the story itself explores the themes of self identity and put extra focus on family dynamics, and different storylines support each other organically. This is the film that can be appreciated by everyone in a family.
I like the director's Kekexili and Missing Gun, but I never though he could also direct big budget movies like this one. In his interviews, the director said he directed this movie since he wanted to step out of his comfort zone - I have to admit he did it, and with great success.
I gave it a 10. Can't wait for it to be released worldwide.

It's a great movie, and it was so much fun for me, a big sci-fi fan, to watch. It's awesome, and I highly recommend it.
The entire story is wrapped in warmth and growth, and the male lead in the story is very handsome and has a heavy responsibility. It's hard to explain in just a few words, but I really like this movie. If you are like me and enjoy science fiction, you must see it
It's highly recommended, especially for science fiction lovers. You should definitely check it out!

749 is a great sci-fi movie to watch with friends on vacation! I'm surprised that Director
Lu Chuan tells the story in a passionate and vigorous way this time which is totally different from his previous films. He was used to focusing on those realistic themes, such as the discussion of nature, survival and human nature.
I really enjoy this film and fulled touched by director's portrayal of Ma Shan. This born-different young man tries to escape and rebel at the beginning, turns to be "different and proud" at the end. A true hero is born when Ma Shan bravely leads the third team to complete the final mission. It's very burning and empathic. The Chinese-style "father-son love" between Ma Shan and Cao Guouncle is also very delicate and moving.
I have learned how hard the production and post production of this film is. I admire Director Lu Chuan's exploration and persistence in science fiction film production standards and international collaborations. I am willing to offer my support to every director who explores new technologies and new directions, and look forward to more excellent works by Director Lu Chuan.

The cinematography and special effects are equally commendable, showcasing a leap in technical prowess for domestic films. Overall, 749 is a masterpiece that balances entertainment with depth, making it well worth watching.

It's actually pretty good.
I think the best part is the last 20, 30 minutes The special effects are very cool to say that Ultraman fights monsters in fact, I don't think I necessarily understand that they fight for 749 and fight for the people to save humanity reflects not only the soul of the group but also patriotic enthusiasm, so I think we must personally see these words rather than believe these words because it is very likely that the black review Wang Junkai has honestly seen a lot of his works He played Ma Shan this time although the age is immature, but I want to say that the acting is really excellent!
Including Miao Miao and Ren Min eye play is really extraordinary there is a Mashan mutation fragment everyone when he is a monster of various photos I directly burst into tears I don't think different is equal to a monster and finally Mashan has become a savior overall I think it is good.
