I really like this show. I saw it by chance when I was bored. I always have respect for science fiction: first, more imagination is needed; second, more special effects; third, more self-justification is needed ; Fourth, there are often more complaints. Therefore, it is not easy to make a science fiction drama. It is really not easy to add the brain and the computer to the audience, and the investment is relatively large. If there are fluctuations, the pressure is relatively large.
From the future to 2012, judging from the current 4 episodes, it is obviously a combination of science fiction and crime solving. It can defend a position in the popular crime dramas in the United States. To be conservative, it means to stand firm at the beginning. , Don’t worry about being chopped and insomnia at night. This setting is beneficial. On the one hand, there will be more conflicts in the plot, and it is convenient for the narrative to continue. On the other hand, it gives the audience a strong sense of substitution. After all, crime dramas are too familiar to everyone. Excluding the identity background from the future, the bug-like coat and bug-like sci-fi brain and eyes, this drama is not much different from traditional crime dramas.
The difference is that those who have traveled from the future want to start a war in 2012. It remains to be seen what this war will look like, but these so-called "terrorists" are not easy to provoke.
Judging from the existing plot conflicts, it will be interesting to follow along.
The struggle between the future female guardian and the future "terrorist". From the beginning, the two sides were at war. From the beginning, the two sides were incompatible. However, there were also people with different intentions among the "terrorists", and some scenes emerged from them. They were both hostile to the guardian and maintained a hostile side, which made the plot trending. Yu is complicated. Judging from the existing "terrorists", there are three highly recognizable, one is a male engineer, the other is a real leader, and the other is a handsome guy who doesn't want to go back to the future.
The guardian and the new police partner. This is the standard configuration method for men and women, and the operation method of Panacea. The question now is whether the female guardian will have feelings with a male partner. A female guardian with a family in the future will live with a handsome male partner who has no girlfriend all day long in 2012. Will it last forever? Affection?
Guardian and computer genius Eric. This pair of partners is very interesting, in the 4th episode, the two sides finally officially met. And Eric is the actual controller of the future society. It is estimated that there will be more and more rival dramas between them in the future, which is very exciting. In episode 4, Eric said to the guardian Kiera: "IF these scientists are playing God, in a way, so are you......" I think what Kiera did not say is that in the future, you are the GOD that rules mankind. . I remember a scene in an episode. In the future world, the Kiera family chatted with Eric. When her husband introduced her to the elderly version of Eric, Eric said, "It's nice to see you again" (to the effect) ). This raises a question that I am very interested in. Did Kiera really find it in Eric’s world in the past, so is such a cycle somewhat contradictory?
This drama is basically a two-line narrative. On the one hand, it continued to advance the plot in 2012, and the current 4 episodes are closely related to the future. On the other hand, it provides necessary explanations on future life and social conditions. The two parties are organically combined, neither conflict nor abrupt.
The "terrorists" in the series actually have a noble purpose, which is to go back to the past, change history, and help people regain their lost freedom. It's just that the means are violent. Then, the process is unjust and the pursuit of the result is justice. Is justice? In the future, Kiera chooses to be a guardian in order to protect her happy life from "terrorists". In fact, she has maintained the dictatorship. Is this justice?
I will keep chasing this drama to see how they film it.
