This film has changed the tone of the previous film's serious and abstinence, and it is cynical and even a bit indulgent, which is evident from the performance of the Betty crew. When I checked the credits, it was actually French director Jean-Pierre Genet, and I was relieved of this style change. In fact, this is also the charm of the Alien series. Although each plot revolves around aliens, different choreographers have their own styles and characteristics, and they all try to explain their understanding of alien life in different ways, avoiding stereotyped narratives and giving the audience more Movie viewing experience. It is precisely because the film was directed by a French director, that the No. 2 scientist in the film is full of a strong French flavor, and that little braid is so cute, and I thought it was an American insinuating a French woman. The art of guns. At the end of the film, the collapsed Eiffel Tower is used as a symbol of the destruction of the earth's civilization, which can be regarded as the director's opportunity to pay tribute to his motherland.
For a long time, the aliens have used humans as hosts, and finally broke out of their chests and put humans to death. And in this episode, human beings can be regarded as a turnaround. After the new alien was born from the alien queen, he did not agree with his alien identity, and killing the queen was a response to the ancient principle of "wicked people have their own wicked grind". Not to mention, this new alien looks much more pleasing to the eye than the original insect-like alien because it incorporates the characteristics of a humanoid. . .
Looking through the previous discussions on the Alien series, I found that everyone has a lot of opinions on the appearance of the heroines. It goes without saying that Ripley is the female version of Rambo, while Elizabeth in "Prometheus" has a bun face, and she is estimated to be shortlisted mainly because of her international background. But in Alien 4, I finally found a beauty, and that is the female No. 2 Kaur. She has both the sharp outline of a Westerner and the delicate verve of an Easterner, which is usually the favorite of French directors. Winona Ryder, who plays the role, used to be Johnny Depp's ex-girlfriend in her life, and we can only envy the good fortune of Young Master Depp.
In the end, a clip in the film evoked an unpleasant memory in the back of my mind. That was about 20 years ago, and I was still in elementary school when I was young. One day, my friends and I passed by the street cultural center and saw an exhibition about prenatal and postnatal care being held in the basement there. Out of curiosity, we visited the museum together. After I went in, I found out, Omg, the original theme of the exhibition was the prevention of deformed fetuses. In the basement, which smells of formalin, tables are lined up with barrels of glass jars filled with specimens of grotesquely deformed fetuses. Those stillbirths are no different from the failed specimens at the end of the film. I have to say that when I was young, my ability to resist these foreign objects was far better than what I am today. For the purpose of popular science, my friends and I watched the entire exhibition with disgust and curiosity. When we came out of the basement, we let out a long sigh and sighed that it was good to be alive. And the related memory was too unbearable, and I immediately swept it into the trash, until Alien 4 woke it up again. Looking back on the past, prenatal and postnatal care is really a major event that has merit in contemporary times and benefits in the future.
