It should be said that it is indeed a good film in a horror film. In addition to being frightened and terrified, it can also leave the audience with some thoughts. From the beginning of the film, the editing of the shots on the two timelines suddenly produced a sharp contrast. Alien The quietness of the street before the attack and the crowds of people on the street after the attack of the aliens are two scenes that seem to be separated from each other.

After gradually groping, the little girl has mastered the use of firelight to communicate, such as the beacon towers and beacon towers in modern my country, but the meaning is the opposite. Knowing that someone has existed here, the civil aviation code to decipher is to use the most primitive method, which is the most basic method. Practical means; the director sometimes blocked all the sound of the audience, which is very obvious in several places. The monsters in the car attacked, as if the world had stopped, and the little girl mistakenly thought that the hearing aid was cheated. At that time, the loneliness and noness help;

I remember that in the movie "The Hearer", only the blind man himself can listen to and recognize the electromagnetic waves from the space when he is very quiet inside and outside. And for the little girl, it is precisely to create such a role, the human beings in the outside world. Among the many senses, they were misunderstood and misled, and were eventually destroyed by monsters or by humans themselves. In the last scene of subduing the monster, she took off the hearing aid and could not receive any information from the outside world, and this was its best shield. The high-frequency noise had a strong deterrent effect on the monster.

Human greed, never-ending, limited, twelve boats, they can hold more people, but because of the shouting caused by the crowd, monsters are attracted and only two boats survived. A word from Emot , to the effect that the people who have stayed up to now are still normal, and also paved the way for the following;

Ai Mot's gun sight is always aimed at human companions, which can be analyzed from two dimensions. It can be understood as distrust of the same kind, or it can be understood as a protection that follows the eyes at all times; it's just that the shots of the monster's weakness are a bit quick, A scene flashed by, and the audience did not gain insight into various weaknesses, and needed to be gradually comprehended with the narration in the film.

In addition, it embodies the feelings of three levels of American movies, the level of national feelings, the nationalist feelings of the United States are silent, and the street scene of the American town that first entered the camera is not like the national flag that we moved out on National Day. The flags are also hung. On the quiet island, people, that may be the Garden of Eden that people dream of and yearn for, they also plant the flag in such an embarrassing environment; the American police still shoot at monsters at the last moment of sacrifice. , with appropriate blanking;

At the level of family feelings, when the black big brother escorted them into a safe area, he resolutely returned to be with his family, but was ruthlessly dragged away by the monster; the black uncle and the white uncle put two dolls, one black and one white. Go to the safest place, and then lure monsters by yourself, showing a very harmonious side of the race, regardless of whether the racial discrimination problem in the United States really exists, but it is a relatively positive orientation from the film;

From a personal level, the little boy has completed his transformation. From a doll who can't catch the ball even in baseball, to the boy's growth path, Mama has given him a lot; When they entered the steel tank and conspired, there were actually big differences, but in the end they were able to take their responsibilities when the crisis came.

A small detail reflects self-protection in a confined space. In a casting tank in a steel factory, when the oxygen in the air is exhausted, they enter the tank for the first time, illuminate their faces with the dim light of a lighter, and wait until The little boy escaped into the tank, a scene was hurriedly skipped, the lighter could no longer be ignited, and the oxygen had been exhausted, just like Ai Mot had to time every time he entered the tank, the string that protected himself could not be kept at all. Laxity has also taught more people the essentials of survival in a small space.
