I watched this film on the day of its premiere in Country I three years ago. A friend who likes science fiction took me to go. He knew that I never watch science fiction.
But this time the exception is that the background music of the bitter mutant sprinting in Washington at the beginning of the film is exactly the part of Dies Irae (Days of Wrath) in Mozart's Requiem. Later, the music played by Sir Ian McKellan against the leaders of the armed struggle was also my favorite serenade (Eine Kleine Nachtmusik), and my defense was put down.
The story just says that mutants want to live in peace with humans, even though many of humans want to exterminate mutants.
However, the reality of the film is also obvious: mutants allude to a small number of people who make up a small part of the population, such as homosexuals. When the little boy who could make the water freeze came out to his family, his mother said in disappointment: Can you not be a mutant? Seeing this, everyone in the audience smiled kindly. But we can't just say that, mutants are talking about such a group. Because the film clearly conveys the message: Anyone with extraordinary talents is vulnerable to the mainstream society, and cannot complain about it.
Science fiction movies are sometimes a kind of obscenity. Because writing a story in the semantic field of reality, there are still some scruples, but in science fiction, the information can be expressed more directly. This film is obviously an irony of society by people with superior brainpower. Professor Xavier, that is, Professor X, unknown. He is disabled and can't move freely, but his brain is a powerful tool for dominance, so he is the old patriarch in mutants. It is a very Chinese view to know the world without walking. However, this society is not the people with superb brains who are struggling, so I want to say that the reason why the original author was able to cherish the sci-fi obsession is because of this contradiction to reality.
Although I don't like this contradiction, I am still attracted by the rich information contained in it. The stunts are not purely for fighting or killing, or like "Titanic", spending money to buy a chance to destroy good things again.
