Predatory City: Deadly Engines (2018)

The poster is intriguing, and the movie starts with curiosity about the story of the masked woman. As a result, the plot is really disappointing compared to the poster.

It is about a story about the survival of the fittest in the context of nuclear weapons causing huge damage to the world, the plundering of existing resources by mobile cities, and the subsequent greed eating the consequences.

Disappointment summary: lack of bright spots, insufficient character creation, slightly reluctant love line.

As an Oscar nominee for best visual effects, the work with an investment of up to 100 million yuan, the special effects are OK, and the exquisite details are worthy of praise.

Like the name of the movie, the purpose of the movie may be to simply show the steampunk apocalyptic scene of the earth and warn the world to stay away from nuclear weapons and war, right?

Mortal Engines quotes

  • Katherine Valentine: How can a society so advanced, so scientific, be so stupid?

    Tom Natsworthy: Well, no more stupid than people today.

  • Thaddeus Valentine: He's afraid. He's trying to hang on to a way of life that doesn't exist anymore. Municipal Darwinism. It's a dying system. Prey has all but gone. Soon, there'll be nothing left.
