      the signal

      After watching this movie, it seems to give people a kind of thinking. Human beings have always been looking for a species that is more advanced, advanced and stronger than themselves. The purpose may be out of curiosity, wanting to know and be exposed to new things. Our attitude may be friendly, but what we are looking for may not necessarily want to communicate, it may be unfriendly, and we don’t want to be disturbed, and the consequences are borne by ourselves…………………………………………...

      Without faith, people go mad

      I watched it a second time and felt a little creepy. . .
      In fact, watch it again, many places in the film hint at the audience,
      such as the alien at 29:37: Are you sure you are tracking hackers?
      At 54:30, a crazy old woman drove over and paid attention to their conversation. It was very incongruous. The male protagonist asked,
      "Where is this?" The
      old woman said, "It doesn't matter, I have seen many people. Don't think about it, he will always protect us." The
      hero...

      a targeted film

      Everyone has mixed opinions on this movie, and yes, movies are aimed at people, and what a movie looks like is completely based on personal preferences, some like it, some don't like it, I think this is okay. In the end, the answer to the mystery has also been revealed. It turns out that they are the guinea pigs of the aliens, but there are also puzzling places in the movie, such as the people in the gas station and the person killed by the big boss. What are they doing? At first, I was afraid...

      curiosity kills the cat

      If you are used to watching Tomboy-style sci-fi films, you like muscles and battles, and you firmly believe that justice will eventually defeat evil. Obviously not for you.

      Some people question that the production cost of this film is more than 2 million US dollars. I want to say that you underestimate the technological level of the United States, especially the extensive application of special effects in the film and television industry in the United States. A certain university or a...

      Real spoilers.


      1. Putting aside everything and talking about dreams, Nick encountered a river and couldn't cross it, just like he encountered a road and couldn't cross it. What the director wants to tell us is very simple, that in the face of difficulties, you can choose to escape, detour, or even trouble, but you must overcome it. In the end Nick stepped over and saw a different world, a different reality.

      2. 2.3.5.41 is not Area 51 at all, this is fabricated, it is guesswork, and it is clear...

      The filming was so abstract, I thought it was the third type of contact at first, but then it became more and more like the Matrix. The plot went deep into thinking that it was the thirteenth degree of evil, and in the end it turned out to be a creation, and then the plot did not understand at the end, it was in the black 51....

      Literary science fiction similar to "Super Body", with mixed styles, starting to dig holes in various suspense, fleeing on the middle road, interspersed with surreal streams of consciousness, when you are tired of this kind of petty experimental color, the last three minutes suddenly give you a gorgeous nothingness The big picture is really staggering. Cut off the side branches and make it into a short story and it's...

    Movie quotes

    • Haley: Nic, I offer to help, not because I think you need it, but because I know you don't.

    • Nic: The truth of the matter? What is the truth of the matter here? The only thing I know for certain is that you don't know what you're dealing with. You will be pulled from this shitty little shack you call a research facility so fast that the only thing relevant to be shown for any of this is the way it's all exposed, wrecked, and forgotten. You have *no* idea! You have no clue! Do you? Have any clue how fast dumb, lost little kids like me, Jonah, or Nomad could ruin a place like this? Have it come grinding to a halt like the stone wheel it is? You're clueless law in the Wild West, Damon. You're a relic protecting ruins. You're pathetic! The truth of the matter is that I'm the only one that has any sense around here.

    • Jonah: They're testing us, Nic. Like little rats.
