Seemingly profound pipeline works

Typical assembly line work: The feature is to deliberately add some seemingly profound speculations [What is the definition of human and machine in this film? Is free will an illusion? ], but will not really explore. Zhao Jun is right: when the male protagonist violated the system's authority and shot at the Boss, the film's rating was suddenly reduced by two stars - this kind of self-slap in the face not only destroys the setting, but also proves that this film is nothing more than a A commercial film that pursues a big reunion. Wouldn't it be a better ending if the male protagonist could only helplessly watch the Boss kidnap his wife and children in the end?
This film is also too rigid in the old version. According to the technical level set in the photo, how can the male protagonist who is transformed into a prosthesis look like a steampunk? Ghost in the Shell wins this film from the setting to the depth of the plot.
In addition, the stand-alone 3D+Dobly 3D of Mega Joy Studios is not at all [happy], the picture is very dim, and the sound effect is remarkable~

    I haven't seen the old version, but the stories and ideas of the new version are still not fresh, and can only be regarded as a well-established assembly line product. Compared with the new version of "Special Police Judge" with a similar theme, this film is indeed much more refined in special effects production. The all-black armor is modern, but unfortunately it is not very good-looking... But "The Judge" at least has absolute justice. The philosophical thinking is in it, and when it comes to this film, it is completely popcorn, and the rank is slightly lower...

    The reborn new chapter sets the shape and story background in line with modern aesthetics. After lowering my expectations, I found that it wasn't too bad. Literary dramas basically made sense, but action dramas. The realism, which is widely praised in elite troops, is a hindrance here. Several major scenes have no imagination, lack of power and sense of speed. Also, I like the scrawny drug addict in Murder more than Officer Murphy.

RoboCop quotes

  • Alex Murphy: Holy Christ, there's nothing left.

    Dr. Dennett Norton: Your body may have gone, but you're still here.

    Alex Murphy: That's not even my brain.

    Dr. Dennett Norton: We had to repair the damaged areas, but we didn't interfere with your emotion or your intellect. Do you... do you understand me, Alex? You're... you're in control.

    Alex Murphy: I'm in control?

    Dr. Dennett Norton: Yes.

    Alex Murphy: Okay. If I'm in control, then I wanna die. Just unplug whatever it is keepin' me alive and end this nightmare.

    Dr. Dennett Norton: Now, say I did that - w-which is, as a doctor, would almost be impossible for me, but... but say I did. Wh... w-what do I say to your wife? What does she say to your son?

    Alex Murphy: That it didn't work. That you tried. Somethin' went wrong. You did everything you could, but I died.

    Dr. Dennett Norton: So after all they've been through, all the pain, all their hope restored, we would just rip that away? Your wife loves you, Alex. She signed the consent forms herself; otherwise, you couldn't have undergone the procedure. She loves you and she gave you a second chance. I need you to take it.

    Alex Murphy: I don't wanna see myself like this again. Ever. And the same goes for my family. Just put me back in.

  • Liz Kline: Dr. Norton, how... how is he doing this?

    Dr. Dennett Norton: His software is faster. His hardware is stronger. He's a better machine.

    Liz Kline: But you said humans hesitate.

    Dr. Dennett Norton: Only when they're making decisions.

    Liz Kline: He's not making decisions?

    Dr. Dennett Norton: Well, yes and no. In his everyday life, man rules over the machine; Alex makes his own decisions. Now, when he engages in battle, the visor comes down and the software takes over, then the... the machine does everything. Alex is a... he's a passenger, just along for the ride.

    Liz Kline: But if the machine is in control, then how is Murphy accountable? Who's pulling the trigger?

    Dr. Dennett Norton: When the machine fights, the system releases signals into Alex's brain making him think he's doing what our computers are actually doing. I mean, Alex believes right now he is in control, but he's not. It... it's the illusion of free will.
