Character Evaluation
Alex Garland uses profound themes and sharp dialogue as his creative style. His "Dredd" has successfully set a lot of humor and irony for the mechanically blunt protagonist. The zombie movie "28 Days Later" brought subtle political themes to the stage. In addition to the thrilling adventures, "Sunshine" also tries to make the audience think about the truth behind the movie. Alex Garland's movies are very powerful for creating tension and the structure of the world
.
As a director born as a writer, Alex Garland likes to add some metaphysical philosophies to his works more than ordinary directors. His extraordinary sci-fi film thinking and delicate control of human emotions have begun to take shape in "Never Let Me Go". The film established his position in the field of science fiction movies
. And his taste in music has been proven in "Annihilation". Many atonal, avant-garde electronic soundtracks and sound effects cover the plot of alien "life" appearance, and shape alien civilization auditoryly. They are different, emphasizing that they are completely different from human beings, and they are refreshing
