    A True Parody If all sci-fi movies are parodies of 2001, Interstellar is a parody of parody. A Shakespeare-like fate story should have some new ideas in the context of space, but it is mixed with too many classic elements, resulting in a lot of content that has no beginning and no end, which seems to be convoluted. Some of the base scenes have the aesthetic charm of Blade Runner, and the spaceship is in a realistic space station style, and the overall temperament is fragmented. The inspiration...

    (8.9/10) James Gray's "Interstellar" is actually an exploration of the self. An exploration of human nature. This is a romantic and sad road movie. Humans bring all their qualities into outer space. Only there is no good part. Roy reflects on his life as he searches for his father. And get out of this phase of life. Move to the next stage. | Gray's script is as refined as ever. Full of intertextualities and symbols. Roy shares the same abandonment rage as the baboons in the spaceship lab....

    The first impression may be that after Alien and 2001: A Space Odyssey, this is the first sci-fi movie that made me feel the ultimate horror of space from a human perspective, and Gray seems to be back to the patriarchy, the father is everywhere. Originating from the existence of the eternal entanglement between the human subject and human beings, the ultimate exploration is ultimately just a challenge to the limit of the human heart. The confrontation with the father captain is only a...

    https://music.apple.com/de/playlist/ad-astra-by-james-gray/pl.u-jV89ampTlp11BJ The second brush is completed. Both are TKS fans overjoyed//embargo. After that, hurry to the battlefield. I didn't buy the expedition of finding lost civilizations, but once I pointed to the universe as an interstellar colonist I fully understood it. All everyday and poetic perfectly nested tks-style narrative long poems, precise face-reading techniques in string and electronic music, no speech,...

    I understand why the movie reviews are polarized. People who like it say that it is difficult to tell personal emotions in a hardcore sci-fi story, but the movie does it. People who don't like it say that the emotions in the movie can't support the volume of the movie. . In fact, it all makes sense. The production and performance (the male protagonist's one-man show) are excellent, and the script is unexpectedly neat, but the third act, which should give people a serious emotional blow at the...

    The film, like prose and poetry, strips away the drama and returns to the heart. Such a lonely universe, such a lonely life. I especially like Pete's delicate performance, which moved me very...

    3.5 is not as dull as expected. The scheduling of the space disaster in the opening is full of immersion, and the many types of paragraphs in the latter paragraphs also stimulate the look and feel from time to time. After all, this is still a James Gray, "Lost Z City" space adventure. The exploration of unknown civilization and the confusion of self-recognition are full of romance and philosophical speculation under Gray's grand narrative, which is meaningful and sad. However, the end point of...

    For the first time in a movie, the monologue of Gray was used to make Roy's space journey closer to Willard in the Vietnamese jungle. Willard found fear, but Roy found something more important than wandering alone in the universe trying to conquer fear, Gray has the usual tenderness and compassion for his character. The first half of the film is like Roy's heartbeat not exceeding 80bpm, extremely objective and calm; the narrative deepens and the rhythm is gradual. The moment the father on Mars...

    Advanced... It's Grey Huge's Heart of Darkness. The language of the film has always followed the inner development of the characters, the play is solid, the rhythm is steady, and the performances of poker and waffle are the best of the year. Photography is also great. The eternal loneliness of man (the unknown inner world) and the boundless starry sky (the unknown outer world) are both terrifying and poetic, and Gray gives them the brutal beauty they deserve. His heaviness and tenderness are...

    [82 points] An extremely romantic real space road film, from the earth to the moon, from Mars to Jupiter and Saturn, and then to Neptune at the end. Each place shows a different hue and the environment is memorable (especially Mars). A journey to explore the human spirit. The whole film focuses on the character of Brad Pitt, and uses very beautiful lens editing to show the helplessness in space and the former family love. The whole film uses a lot of narration, and some effective parts are...
