"The Night the Comet Came" - The party of old friends is an accident-prone area

I finally made up for this low-budget magic film. Although the swaying camera has a lower viewing experience, it is better than the script, and the small problems can be ignored. In addition, the film is one after another, with dazzling clues from the sketch in the secret room to the brain-burning drama that integrates quantum physics. The dramatic tension is really rare. It has been seen on the major suspense lists for a long time, which is enough to prove the audience's love for it.


This film is actually very much like the sci-fi version of "Perfect Stranger". Some small-probability events have brought out the true colors of a group of old friends: cheating is an inevitable drama of mid-life crisis, even as natural as having to eat and drink at a dinner party. Before the fuse, everyone wanted to be a good person. On the basis of reality, "Perfect Stranger" gives us another possibility, reminding the audience that if you don't die, you won't die; while "The Night When The Comet Came" nakedly disrupts countless parallel worlds before your eyes, It even gives you the hope of starting over again, like the bottle of ketamine in the guise of a pure plant, dangerous and deadly.


When they saw the comet coming, there were countless parallel worlds around them, and their thinking couldn't help jumping to the arrogance and insignificance of human beings themselves: the

arrogance is that even in the parallel world, although the time is slightly skewed, It is still a reality familiar to human beings, rather than opening the door to all kinds of whimsy in various dimensions and spaces. Of course, this is not a sci-fi blockbuster, and it has no derogatory meaning. It is just a sad arrogance-even if it can disrupt time and space. When the comet arrives, this world is still composed of the human world we know well. In short: people cannot escape the cage they set for themselves;


The small thing is that even in modern society, science, medicine, knowledge, etc. have made great achievements under the bloody efforts of the previous people. However, when the unknown mystery arrives, it is still full of ugliness. The social relations that have always been proud of do not stand up to much testing. Ugly secrets, fragile hearts, inflated possessiveness, etc., make unity become empty words when the end comes. The driving force of society to promote a person's life is so great that once the trajectory of society changes, people will irreversibly slip into the unknown abyss due to inertia.


This inertia is what we have always accepted as the world. So there are people in "annihilation" who can't accept that the DNA of all things can be randomly merged, desperately trying to find out the uniqueness and importance of what makes people human. However, whether it is ancient Chinese mythology or Greek mythology, there are stories of making people out of mud. No matter how the monarchs promote the divine empowerment of the monarchy, everyone is just a mass-produced creature of some higher life form at the beginning.


And the most hateful thing is that life is already so difficult, but there are countless times and spaces like this, and they may be worse or better. The similar rooms that the heroine walked through at the end made people restless: some had been tortured by the vision brought by the comet, collapsed and killed each other, some made a big noise and completely forgot the identity of their old friends, but some also The age of the world is indisputable. If you've ever experienced the cold, you know how tempting fire can be, even with the pain of burning forever.


Whether Schrödinger's cat is alive or not is a topic of interest to scientists. The cat does not know his identity as an experimental subject, and his old friends in countless similar time and space do not know his future situation. The topics of life and death, right and wrong can be big or small, but human selfish desires are exactly the same. It can be seen that old friends really shouldn't have too many gatherings. God knows which comet and meteor gorilla will pass by, and the cognition in this life will be completely destroyed.


Inexplicably think of the shuttle door in "Plants vs. Zombies". If there is a group of higher biological forms of life, the earth is used as the experimental object, and the shuttle door is placed between countless time and space, and observe how this bunch of lovely humans will react. Wouldn't it be a little funny. Just like humans experiment with mice for medical progress, experiment with other animals and plants to observe whether they have intelligence and emotion, and so on, I hope we are the experimental subjects that satisfy them.
