The uncle took out his favorite record from the drawer and put it on the gramophone to start playing. As soon as the music stopped, the whole building began to disintegrate from a steel column... This kind of scene belongs to the best category in the surreal theme, ignoring its steampunk classification, it is almost similar to "Inception" Get a comparison.

My statement may be a little vexatious. But I don't know when the movie started, I regarded it as a steampunk type film. The rationality of the plot can be solved by brain supplementation... It's just because your imagination is limited. Although I can't remember all the details of the scene of the disintegration of the building, it can already be regarded as a top work in the hearts of steampunk fans - so the public acceptance of this film may not be high... But in our hearts it is Absolutely perfect movie...just like you can't depreciate Inception for the same reason, you have no reason to depreciate it this way.

I'm a bit arrogant, there may be many problems with the overall structure of the film - you can't understand Picasso's paintings at a glance... Of course I don't mean to belittle Picasso... Steampunk as a unique subculture is certainly not comparable to the mainstream A star in the art world. It's just that their concepts are the same, and they all express human's understanding of the world with minimal symbolic symbols.

The above is all my nonsense. There are many details in the movie that are not very rigorous, and the script cannot be self-consistent in simple language.

This is a film review with a personal standpoint. I don't actually see many steampunk works, but from the perspective of my appreciation of works of art, there are some enduring bright spots in the film.

I didn't mention the word wasteland throughout, I thought it was the tone of the movie. Generally speaking, wasteland themes are inevitably connected with steampunk, and there are always some exceptions that I can find. For example, Resident Evil does not feel like steampunk, but it means cyberpunk. I can't tell the difference between the two feelings. If you really like it, you can choose based on your own feelings.

My favorite character is that old man. I haven't seen the third one yet. Don't take my advice. If you are interested in steampunk, you can recommend some to me. There are too few live-action steampunk-themed film and television works that can be found. So I couldn't help but get excited. I thought I had found gold.

Again, I don't like to mention the word wasteland, this movie is quite mixed, I don't know how they are related, and I don't want to know. The dream is over. Movies help us do things we can't do in reality.

Going back to the scene mentioned at the beginning, when the automatic tone arm of the gramophone moves to the vinyl record, no matter what year, month, and place the plot takes place, even if it seems to be nothing and nothing, when the yellow When the light fell on the teasing face of the black uncle, everything made sense.
