      The girl's crazy choice: don't become a god, or rather die!

      The creator of the world must be lonely, there is no love in this film, and the relationship with the male protagonist is just borrowing. ,

      Survival, reproduction; end time, new age; accident, inevitable; death, life.

      After destroying Mother Earth with her own hands, human beings chose to abandon their homeland and go to colonization with an uncertain future. Only the heroine, only the heroine, did not give up, endured loneliness, and tried every means to adapt....

      Genesis

      Movies are not the type that can be called "good-looking". What drove me to watch was a little curiosity hidden in the process that was far from wonderful but not too boring. The whole film is being paved, so I have to say something.

      Towards the end of the film, the heroine once again looked at the metaphorical painting "Zeus and Leda" that has appeared many times throughout the film, revealing the mystery: this is a story about the heroine’s genesis. The hero came by hot air balloon....

      The work of boring and sick moaning

      The girl lives on the earth alone, playing the recordings of her dead father every day. But what she and her father insisted on caused many people to stay on the earth and finally died. The black man came to ask his guilt, and finally wanted to take her away from the earth.

      The girl communicated with her boyfriend and learned that it was impossible to meet each other. So as soon as he turned his head and left the computer, he hugged the black man and cheated. I can't help but feel that...

      People don’t change themselves to adapt to the environment, they try every means to change the environment to adapt to themselves, so there is no way.

      People cannot change themselves to adapt to the environment, they try every means to change the environment to adapt to themselves. Humans have evolved their brains, and their ability to resist cold, heat, hunger, and disease has deteriorated. These problems can only be solved with air conditioning, heating, fine and clean diet, and antibiotics. Whether the environment can withstand this human tossing pressure is not something that individual individuals, governments, and all mankind who are...

      The life of a poor girl (reminds me of pine nuts)

      The literary and artistic films under the banner of science fiction, the overall rhythm of the film is very slow, and it is boring to watch it if you can't bear it. . . The girl regards herself as the savior of the world, not knowing whether she inherited her father's will or she is too persistent with her own research. . . Finally did not leave. In fact, even if he didn't die in the end, no one would want to return to Earth again.

      Did a great god answer a few questions? How did the...

    Movie quotes

    • [first lines]

      Sam: [narrating] It's like we were doomed to destroy our planet. Some say it was because of the increasing pollution. I just call it human nature. A few scientists predicted what would happen. They started working on a power station that could be sent into space to harvest geothermal energy from other planets. But it was too late. People would start dying in their sleep... suffocating in the streets, the blood in their veins turning black. "An unexpected change in atmosphere composition," they said. To me it was just our planet desperately trying to survive by kicking us out.

      Sam: So one day, a hundred ships flew off into the sky.

      [numerous glowing dots across the planet]

      Sam: It was the Exodus mission. They turned the power station into a colony, like a lifeboat floating above Jupiter's volcanic moon, also known as...

      Title Card: IO

    • Sam: [in a letter to Elon] Earth is not dying, it's being reborn. I know things aren't easy on the IO Colony, but... please write back soon. I love you, Elon. From Earth until the end of the universe. -Sam.

    • Sam: Do you think it's absurd to love someone that's millions of miles away?

      Micah: Not at all. So ancient is the desire for one another which is implanted in us. Reuniting our original nature, seeking to make one of two and healing the state of man.

      Sam: What's that?

      Micah: Plato. Symposium.

      Sam: What does it mean?

      Micah: He says, humans originally had two faces. Four arms, four legs. And they were happy like that. Complete. Then they defied the gods, so the gods split us in two as punishment. Tore us away from our other halves. He said, each of us, when separated, is always looking for our other half. It's our nature. But when one is met with this other half... the pair are lost in an amazement of love, friendship, intimacy. And one will not be seen out of the other's sight. See, the reason is, human nature was once originally one. And we were whole. And the desire and the pursuit of the whole... is called love.
