I know that most people will not like this interstellar exploration, despite the participation of the male god Brad Pitt.
I can fully understand that compared to the same type of space movies, this movie has almost no story to tell, and the special effects we see are not unfamiliar.
Interstellar, Space Traveler, Alien Awakening and more
But I also don't hesitate to express my 5-star review for this one.
Film, an artistic medium, is used by some people as a recreational tool, and some people use it as an outlet for the accumulation of thoughts.
The experience that this movie brought to me is real, deja vu real
I think I like this kind of literary sci-fi movies very much now. They don’t have a storyline or even a lot of dialogue, but one thing in common is that the sound effects are enough to make people immerse.
This immersive experience made me feel far away from reality, and I was able to immerse myself in it and feel the loneliness of the male god
And this kind of loneliness, I often experience, the reality within reach.
In the dark and lonely moments of the night, I often face the night and talk to myself,
This kind of loneliness away from the crowd is like the feeling of drowning, which makes people suffocated and panicked
I used to have that self-destructive tendency, too, and I often had images of a bald guy holding a pistol at his temple in his right hand.
Sometimes I can't help but raise my right hand with my index finger against my temple, as if I'm holding a gun in my hand.
Occasionally, in the silent blackness where no one is around, I will shout out loud, shouting fuck
I can understand why the male protagonist's father finally chose to give up. Being alone to the extreme will really destroy a person.
And Pete is another kind of loneliness, which I understand as a desire to survive after drowning.
It's like when I've been quiet for a long time without speaking, I'll frantically find an exit, find a way to prove that I'm still alive
I also realized later that I couldn't be alone, I couldn't live without social interaction, even if I saw a person and heard a person's breath, it was enough to make me come alive.
The male protagonist is like this. At the beginning of the movie, his heart is not unified with his appearance, and he doesn't like being touched by others.
But at the end, the close-up of the stranger reaching out is enough to make us feel that the male protagonist longs to be touched after experiencing the loneliness to death
He chooses hope, chooses to return to gregarious life, he is not his father.
Although this movie is called Interstellar Exploration, I think it is more of an inner excavation. The male protagonist's eloquent narration and the long and almost scary soundtrack all make people feel deeply immersed.
This movie is a stage for Pete alone. He has played to his level, and there is even a compassionate and touching impulse to care, which may be the breath of a person who is extremely lonely.
I love this movie, it doesn't matter what other people think.
PS, this soundtrack reminds me of "Arrival" and "Blade Runner 2049";
Lonely to the extreme, reminds me of K from Blade Runner 2049; Elliott from Hackers; Sam from Moon; 1900 from Pianist at Sea
I don't know if there will be friends and I would like to go together.
