There are really a lot of sci-fi elements in this film. Like many film critics said, you can see many shadows, monsters, parasites, Inception, Truman's world, The Matrix, Balabala, especially the shell. The ultimate dream of the beach should pay tribute to Truman.
The actual underlying logic of the movie is actually quite simple, at least simpler than The Matrix seems.
Aliens control the city, and their group with shared memories has faced extinction, so they want to study human beings with independent personalities, so they continue to control human memories to carry out experiments of stripping and inputting, and experiments that keep the entire city in absolute night. At 12 o’clock, the time was stopped to facilitate their experiments. In the end, the male protagonist was a man who surpassed his spirit in willpower. Genki Bomb), and finally won the victory as well as the beauty.
The early stage of the film is dark, full of suspense style, full of expectations and texture, and the ending is a bit anticlimactic, which is a pity.
The director's romantic atmosphere is very heavy, and many details of the film are not suitable for watching in the cinema.
For example, it is also created in the city, distorted buildings, Inception and this urban creation that is set at night, the visual impact is countless.
In fact, many directors in the United States regard videotape and digital income as an important part, and do not care much about the audience experience of the theater.
The singing performed by the heroine has nothing to do with the film. The shell beach in the hero's memory is like Haizi's facing the sea, and the spring flowers are blooming. They are all alternative artistic expressions, including aliens wearing black suits and belts. The dress style of wearing a black round hat reveals an absurd atmosphere.
Of course, there are a lot of bugs in the movie. There is no way. The screenwriter's setting is there, so you can't see it, otherwise it will affect the viewing experience.
