1. Except for the last episode of the air cannon duel, which is a bit silly, the picture, atmosphere, and suspense of the whole movie are all in place. self-consistent. In the dark and cold city, in the dark corners, most of the scenes in the whole film are oppressive and suffocating, but the darkness cannot hide the brilliance of human nature: John, who subconsciously wants to rescue a goldfish even if he loses all his memories, is at the end of the movie. She has lost her memory of Emma but still chooses to protect her; in order to resist the humiliation of aliens, Doctor can be said to be a full-length mvp, who unearthed John's potential with one hand and finally injects memory to realize the comeback of human beings; the kind and sensitive Emma is loyal to love , Although he didn't know John after his memory was reconstructed, he still doubted his goodwill; Uncle Cral, whose memory was reconstructed, would also give up his seat on the bus for Emma, who he didn't know; In order to protect John, he eventually perished with an alien in the vast space.
2. The city created by the aliens - or the laboratory is cold and lifeless, there is no sunlight all year round, there are no other animals and plants in the city, there is only cold metal and blood. Humans with a bright heart wanted to escape from here, but due to the alien's "tuning" ability, all their attempts to escape were in vain. The truth finally came to light when John brought the Sheriff and the Doctor to the city border with the purpose of finding the sea, and discovered that there was a vast universe outside. The cages set up by aliens and the experiments of memory exchange on human beings have never been able to explore the emotional essence of human beings. The darkness and coldness they create are diametrically opposed to the bright and fresh beauty created by John at the end of the film. This is also the reason why aliens have never been able to understand human beings.
3. What does Shell Beach mean? In the "tune-in" of the aliens again and again, Shell Beach is like a bug, which can never be erased by the aliens, but is always an unreachable location. Most people in the city have good memories there: from taxi drivers to John, Emma, Sheriff, etc., under the influence of aliens, they forgot how to get to that wonderful place, but the beauty in their hearts It will never change, which is why the first thing John did after defeating the boss and able to control the alien machine was to create Shell Beach, this kind of beautiful memory may belong to a kind of "human" group Memory", is the bond of emotional connection, even if it doesn't exist.
4. What does memory really mean to us? Unexplained people in the city of moving souls will continue to live in this city day by day. Although the creator of their memory has changed from a ghostly alien to John, the memory that belongs to them is still illusory in nature. Real, or else, everything in their life is unreal, and all love, hatred, and hatred are false under the guidance of a creator. In this case, what is the meaning of life? At this time, I was thinking, sometimes it is good to be a puppet of unknown origin. As long as memory and life are real to me, why should I care about its objectivity? If there is a mentally ill person living happily in a world of his own making, why wake him up?
5. The mvp of the whole film is Doctor, but he is the most painful character in the whole film. In order to resist the alien race, he carefully guided John and helped him master the ability to "tune" to fight against the aliens; later he fell into the hands of the alien race and was forced to join them, but he himself also suffered great pain: because he was coerced by the aliens to delete Going away from all other memories, it was lonely and painful; despite this, he still persisted in the struggle, and in the end it was the Doctor's deceit that decided this war belonged to the Doctor, and it was his skillful adjustment of the syringe that inspired John's final potential. But what surprised me was that after the victory of the war, John didn't look directly at the benefactor. The first thing he thought of was Emma and the creation of Shell Beach - here I can't help thinking about what he would think from the Doctor's point of view: As one of the only two people in the city where everyone is drunk and awake, both John and the Doctor have endured humiliation, but now John has acquired an unparalleled ability, he can create light and change the world as he wants. As for the Doctor, what's the use of being sober? Losing the good memories of the past, my mind is full of painful and unbearable experiences of working with aliens, knowing that the environment I am in is false and indifferent, but still living strong, this is a great spiritual torment. The most terrible thing is that no one except John will remember his contribution. People on earth have no understanding of all this thrilling, and people in the city of moving souls are unaware of all these illusions. No one knows that he once Great sacrifice to save humanity. Instead, it is better to be a silly puppet like other people, living a false life in false happiness - in the face of the iron-cold reality, the truth seems pale and the boundary between the true and the false seems so blurred.
