A very magical film that almost makes me feel that there is no cliché at all. This grotesque philosophical thinking makes the illogical and unclear plot in the film irrelevant. Wang Xiaobo said that he didn't like preaching and telling stories, so I thought I had heard a story that I had never heard before. In addition, there are a lot of dewy tits in it, so I'm so...

Guns and erections, reproduction and immortality, masks and domination, knowledge and truth. A gigantic drug-heavy psychological sociology experiment, too fancy. Zardoz, Wizard of...

The plot is embarrassing, and the shape is even more embarrassing. Sean Connery has a Qing Dynasty braid on his head and wears red pants. Charlotte Rampling is quite beautiful, with a cool bunt and a waist that is too thin to...

Zed: What is it you want?
Friend: Sweet death. Oblivion.
Zed: For yourself, or for the whole Vortex?
Friend: For Everybody. An end to the human race. It has plagued this pretty planet for far too long.
Zed: You stink of despair. Fight back! Fight for death, if that's what you want.
Friend: I thought at first you were the one to help. But it's hopeless. All my powers have gone.
Zed: Where is it? The Tabernacle?
Friend: The Tabernacle... is... I can't remember!
Zed: Who made it? Someone must know how to break it.
Friend: Yes, but you can meet him for yourself! One of our founders, one of the geniuses who discovered immortality.
[Friend goes to the bed of the Old Scientist and, rousing him noisily, shouts]
Friend: We want to die! Hm? What - what's the trick?
Old Scientist: [feebly] Death... death... Talk to May! May!

[Zed stands before a giant screen swarming with microscopic infusoria]
May: Look at it. It's you.
[Zed looks behind him, but May does not see him do so]
May: Your genetic structure, your life chart. Look.
[Obligingly, Zed does so again]
May: You are a mutant, second, maybe third generation - therefore genetically stable. Enlarged brain, total recall. Your potential is... Your breeding potential!
Zed: Breeding?
May: Frayn!
[May spins around to confront Zed]
May: How did you get into the Vortex? What is your purpose?
Zed: I'm just an Exterminator. I know nothing.
May: You must know that you're mentally and physically vastly superior to me, or to anyone else here. You could be anything, could *do* anything. You must be destroyed.
Zed: Why?
May: Because you could destroy us!
Zed: As *you* destroyed the rest of life? Can you un-know what you know now about me?
May: For the sake of science, I will keep this knowledge from the others, for the time being. But you must follow me, obey me, be circumspect, make no disruption, quietly do whatever work is given you. I will watch over you.
