Even though this movie flopped, this is the most awesome thing ive ever seen in movies
What do you mean flopped?
@@mythic2385
Financially it flopped
@@Ssure2nope. It flopped because it wasn’t accurate to the book.
@@darkestnightproductions doesn't change the fact that it flopped financially tho does it?
This is visually one of the best movie scenes I've EVER seen. So well made,original and imaginative. Can't say the same for the rest of the movie unfortunately.
The fact that this movie flopped is one of the greatest injustices in Cinema next to Master And Commander not getting a sequel.
Just watched MaC for the first time tonight! Weird that I now see this comment.
And I agree.
Criminally under rated
One of the best Openings I know. I litteraly get shivers down the spine when the little Cities start to flee.
02:36
Transform and roll out!
It was a dark, blustery afternoon in spring, and the city of London was chasing a small mining town across the dried-out bed of the old North Sea.
Is your comment, a reference to beginning of the first book or is it a reference to the ending of the fourth book? :-D
(I finished the last one today, and i liked the end of the story very much)
Cody.tvt, wouldn’t it be both
Somehow, they took that simple sentence and turned it into Mad Max: City Road. It's kind of awesome.
@@tvtenhagen yes this is 2 years after your comment but it's both
@@Novahri i forgot that i wrote it xD
this scene is the prime example of what i like about fictional storytelling, its how you can come up with creative imaginative ideas and make them come to life on the screen for audiences to see
the problem is that a lot of movie directors tend to forget that and try to make movies as close to boring real life as possible, to the point to where when someone actually does try to make something creative everyone says its "wierd" and it becomes a flop
"60 minutes..." (shivers down spine) 🤧🤧🤧
Little ting comes and london like nah fam you ain't going no where hahaha
That Minions cameo though...
Looks like England is trying to get back its colonies
Bavaria wasn't one of theirs.
3:44 They honestly probably coulda escaped if they kept going forward and went AROUND London's treads, completely outmaneuvering it thanks to the size difference.
clearly they attended the prometheus school of running away from things
@@DarkTakanuva Kong Skull Island put it best
“Run to the side, you idiot!”
Its no use. The city has cannons that can one shot salthook
London’s too wide. Salthook would’ve gotten flattened before it could go to the side.
@@chatterycasque9594 idk the speed advantage looked like it was enough.
So is this like the best scene in the movie?
No, I wouldn’t say so. Shrike had some awesome scenes
Even in the dystopian future you can count on British Colonialism :/
You are a idiot .....grow a brain cell if you can fool .
Darcy Mcnabb Love how the high school drop out is telling me that I am an idiot. Learn some history inbreeder
How is this colonialism?
speaking of, colonialism wouldnt have failed if everyone didnt pull out of africa.
think of all the reaources that are now locked behind decades of tribals trying to stabalize their shithole.
Mortal Engines is like that weak doge/strong doge meme.
Mortal Engines: Noo the storyline isn't that bad, please don't hate us...
Also Mortal Engines: *We have the best vehicle designs and special effects since Star Wars.*
I really don't know why this movie flopped. I thought it was really amazing piece of theatre considering, like always, fact that any movie based on books is inherently flawed. Do people really are THAT uncomfortable with idea that we actually can destroy our civilisation in mere moments? The answer is YES, WE ARE...
Also, it just had a bad luck of being emitted at very unfortunate moment, combination of no famous actors (Hugo Weaving being notable exception, plus _AMAZING_ performance of Stephen Lang) , relative non-accessibility of original books (aside from English version, of course), it all made this movie into what is called "flop". It is actually quite sad...
I like the movie but i don't know the books so i can't say if the movie was better or worse
The writing isn't good. It's easy to tell where Tom, Hester, Valentine, and the entire damn story are going. Valentine is just mega evil for no reason. Magnus Crome at least seems justified because he's pushing the "Darwinism" thing even if it won't last. But Valentine doesn't see a chance at peace with Shan Guo because...?
It really just felt cliche. Absolutely nothing new is done with Hester and Tom's romance; it happens so quickly, too. The characters just move from place to place without a lot of purpose, seemingly more for setting up big spectacle after spectacle. And the most interesting thing in the movie, this city-eating, is seen ONCE.
Of course I don't think the movie is bad. It at least gets a 5/10 for visuals and for playing it so safe with all the writing stuff that I've seen a bunch before. I think the actors are competent in their roles.
I will say, I didn't go see this movie when it came out, because it didn't interest me a whole lot. It looked cool but it wasn't a must-see.
The plot of the film is just terrible. They literally make it Star wars at the end, with a "Death star trench run" and an "I am your father moment. They made Hester into some prophecised hero when all she wants is to kill Valentine. None of these things happen in the book. Nor does London survive *at all*. The film makers literally blew up the wrong city just because one of the producers said "oh you can't blow up *London*!"
No one's uncomfortable at the idea of ending civilization in film. This one was just a poor effort story wise.
Edit: I mean even just "small" things too. Hester is described as *horribly* misfigured due to what Valentine did. As in, missing an eye and half her nose. An injury that completely warps how she sees the world *and* how she is treated by others. And in the film she just has a slightly deep scar on her cheek? Why?
probably wouldnt have sunk in theatres if they didnt pander to tweens and gut the story.
Yup. Though I guess an adaptation of a book aimed at tweens makes sense to be a tween-focused movie. Just wish it spent less time establishing how badassed and relatable the characters were and more time with world-building. Potential squandered.
I think this movie easily could've been better if we saw more of the giant machines.
I wonder what this would be like if David Attenborough was in it?
Underrated
what they needed were 200 PSI turbos on their engines
This film had so much potential. I reckon if Peter Jackson was actually directing this film, it would've been alot better. Say what you will about The Hobbit, but at least those films had some interesting characters in them, as well as some well-directed moments in them. This film on the other hand, I literally can't get myself invested in much of the characters in it. That, and most of the time, besides the action, much of this film tends to be rather heavy on exposition.
Does somebody know if there is a Version of the Music in the Background that is not the London suite from the official soundtrack?
I have it on my channel
Damn son
Should have stuck closer to the source material instead of trying to pander to China.
England's back at it again
They went to the Prometheus school of running away from things
this remind me of final fantasy 8
0:15 Shrike The Narrator
فلم كامل
Hahahaha city vs city Don Don don
They should feel glad to be feeding a bigger city
And being turned into slaves
If only they could just go against the London city and drives past them
name of song?
London Suite in C Major
Director- I liked the movie water world and hunger Games.
Goes to show you, you can have the coolest idea ever for a sci-Fi world, but if you don’t have a good story to tell in it, it’ll never work.
Ya it's a kids book but a lot of great movies are. I do think they should have made some changes but the source material is definitely solid.
@@brycepeddicord6763 Haven’t read it, myself. How many books are there?
@@sacredterrador5611 4 books in the original series, 3 prequels set around the time London was just becoming a mobile city. Calling it a kid's book is a bit of a disservice given that it's a considerably darker and more cynical story than the movie itself. Indeed, the movie basically threw out the entire back half of the story in favour of redoing Star Wars. It was a mostly understandable decision, given that the original book doesn't have a happy ending, and it takes pretty much the entire series for things to gradually get meaningfully better in the otherwise messed up world, but in throwing out the original tone they kind of ended up losing the thing that drew many people to the books in the first place. I'd give a solid recommendation to reading the books whether or not you liked the film. Just don't expect happily ever after to happen.
Main character does nothing. Doesn't warn the town. Does nothing!!
Maybe there are some reasons, she wants to enter the city of London,she wanted to kill mr.valentine,some revenge.
Maybe she are who destroyed engine on Bavaria city.
She is a selfish, somewhat sociopathic person, which is well established in the books. Her aim is to end up on a town that will get chased down in order to kill Valentine. Warning the towns about oncoming London will reduce the time she has to get onto a town most likely to get captured and also will give the towns a head start, reducing the odds of any being captured by London at all. Warning towns would have been very counterproductive to what she had in mind.
@@Neuromant1991 Agreed, considering Valentine is true evil of the movie, one can be excused for prioritizing his death over safety of hundred or so people in little moving settlement. Not that she knew what EXACTLY her mother has found on Dead Continent (formerly USA)...
@@Definitelylnterested well, she doesn't really care until much later in the movie that he is the main evil, she just wants to kill him in revenge. And in the books he is not the main villain anyway.
@@Neuromant1991 He isn't? Oh wait, don't answer that. I actually didn't read this series, only watched movie and was amazed enough to read 2 articles on website of this movie/book series. Now I am deep in search for it in various shops. Too bad it is not translated, but I know English rather well, so it is not total wash. Anyway, thanks for clearing it up xD
I wanna give the narrator some water...
The narrator is a Stalker. Basically a zombie that can think rationally and was used as a soldier before the technology to make more was lost.
This movie needed more of these chase and city battle scenes, and less of the convoluted mismatched drama involving Cyborg Zombies. People who were interested in this film wanted to see mobile cities fighting not the wacky relationship drama.
Thats not really what the book is about though...
Hate to think what Detroit would be like in this world...XD
Destroyed most likely. The books described North America as the 'Dead Continent' so fortunately, there would be no Detroit in this universe. And anyways, do you really think the people of Detroit are civilised enough to mobilise that shithole of a city, had they survived the Sixty Minute War?
_I never understood how they generate enough power to move an entire city on wheels, was it oil or uranium, either one would require so much juice, that it would cause an explosion of radiation poisonings, plus how are they replacing the wheels, it's no wonder this movie flop._
Steam power
Probably the most epic first 60 seconds of a movie. Too bad they completely ruined it and made it a generic teen romance
Well they weren't actually in love, they were just friends.
There are a lot of logical flaws in the movie. What's the point of of even hunting such a small city. Again if they had such tech to build such giant moving cities with huge power coresa nd motors. Rathe rebuild a normal city in a place and grow it into a thriving civilization.
Having not seen it, I can assume that they didn't have the resources to stay in one place
I didn’t read the books, but in the them it is said the land was irradiated, nothing would likely grow-let alone enough to feed a
Civilization.
@@Tigerman1138 okay see the amount of fuel needed to keep it moving consumes far more energy than a stationary civilization. Land maybe irradiated, then you can build an elevated platform from the ground. All am saying is it's contradictory to say it's apocalyptic and then build such mega cities with such high energy needs.
Hi ni by
The opening sucks, and was the moment I realized the movie was probably gonna suck and not be able to live up to the novel. Sadly, I was right. It would have been a much better move if they simply used the opening from the book.
I rewatch this intro to remind me to hate this movie. I want it not to exist. Stop making it! You can't stop because it is already released! This is not ok!
The only scene in this whole stupid movie that was faithful to the book.....
