The main point of the story is what will our world be like when people increasingly seek convenience and disconnect from real human life? Although this theme is very mainstream and necessary in today's world, and the idea is novel, the film does not have a very new feel. Bruce Willis is still the middle-aged uncle who likes to show his little melancholy with his head tilted sideways, although he wears a wig that he knows is fake at first glance in order to play his own proxy robot. The screenwriter seems to tell us that we use cars instead of walking, screens instead of eyes, and mobile phones instead of talking, then we can also use machine agents to replace the perfect self in our hearts to work and live. The more important reason for this is that we can avoid the harm of going out. If you don't go out, there will be no car accident, no robbery, no murder, and no swine flu. Even if there is, the only thing that will hurt is your own machine agent. It is nothing more than sending it back to the manufacturer for repair or buying another one.
Maybe the movie's assumptions are exaggerated, and the scene of handsome and beautiful robots all over the street will not appear, but the otaku in our society is not much lower than the human in the movie. When the Internet can solve all our problems, going out seems like an unnecessary act. You can buy anything online, you can see a doctor online, order medicines, you can travel in virtual machines, you can make friends and get married online. According to this development, what we need is not to let the machine become our agent, but to let the robot become everyone's logistics. You place an order online for what you need, the other party accepts your order online, and then the robot delivers it to your home. The public affairs in society are handled by the robot, and people only need to sit at home and direct it. But, what if you want to go to a party, it doesn't matter, just install a holographic portrait projection at home, of course, you still have to do some things yourself, such as sex, of course, you can also buy a smart rubber man and input the data of the person you like into it, Or it can be done directly through neural stimulation in the game simulator. As for having a child, come on, it's better to raise a robot that simulates a whole life, so you don't have to worry about him getting sick or having an accident, and you don't have to worry about his life.
