The Day the Earth Stood Still evaluation action

One of the strengths of this sci-fi disaster film is that its commercialization is not out of the original intention, and the non-funny parts in the film are simply boring.
Scott Derrickson’s "The Day the Earth Stood Still" is costly, but it doesn’t help.
The "boring" of the film has nothing to do with Keanu Reeves's performance. To blame, the director is incapable of this subject, and therefore unable to build a temperament compatible sci-fi atmosphere around him. In the adaptation of the overall story atmosphere, the screenwriter still took a certain amount of thought. However, it is a pity that, at a critical juncture, the director refused to open the skylight to speak up and directly explain the fact that human uncontrolled activities are harmful to the environment. Instead, it became the ambiguous and pretentious "Earth is dead, mankind will die; mankind will die." The mysterious proposition of "Earth Birth". Regardless of the scale of the scene or the level of detail, the film lacks highlights. It is like a delusion to use a new bottle of new wine, and the result is a mess. Not only the selected bottle is inferior, but the bottle is filled with loose sand.
