[Memory Rift Paycheck] If you show someone their future, they don't have a future

I think it's a very good science fiction movie.
First of all, let's talk about a few elements that attracted me to this film: Ben Affleck John Woo
Both director and the actor are my favorite styles.
This is a movie that foresees the future and changes the future, thereby saving itself and even the country.
The best thing in the film is the daily life objects in the big envelope. They all seem insignificant and can’t be hit by eight poles, but they play an extremely important role. Put the "key" to victory. There is no lack of Wu Yusen's style in the process ~ the hail of bullets, the shocking, and the intense fighting. The picture is not bad for the 2003 movie.
At the end of the film, I was deeply infected by a few lines in the film, which seemed to express the truth to the audience who watched the same film.

So the pause screen immediately copied these lines and shared them below -
if you show someone their future, they don't have a future.
If you show someone their future, They have no future.
To take away the mystery of the future is to take away hope.
if you take away the mystery, you take away hope
.
If you only look where you can't go, you will miss the riches below.

    I watched it in the movie theater back then, and it felt very wrong, but when I watched it again, it was just average.

    The woman is ugly and does not understand the aesthetics of foreigners very much. The story is actually not bad, the escape time and time again is attributed to meeting the future. Since the past cannot be changed, can the future be changed? Kind of reminds me of Minority Report, the most future-altering ending.

Paycheck quotes

  • Wolfe: So, you're saying he sent himself a different set of personal items, ones he'd selected after using the machine, and nothing our security would flag.

    Jimmy Rethrick: Everyday things. Combined with the power of foresight, transform Michael from engineer to escape artist.

    [Rethrick looks at the continued computer virus signal and adds grimly:]

    Jimmy Rethrick: I don't know about you, but I'd like to return the favor.

  • [Michael is focusing on the Einstein stamps on the envelope of items]

    Rachel Porter: What?

    Michael Jennings: You know, when I checked this envelope out of Reddy Grant, they told me I signed in twenty items. But there were only nineteen.

    Rachel Porter: I don't understand.

    [He picks up a magnifying glass and examines the Einstein stamps. One of them has a strangely pixelated eye. The camera cuts to a laboratory in which Jennings is examining the stamps under a microscope while Rachel stands behind him. The pixels turn out to be Seattle newspaper headlines, such as "Machine Predicts Future" and "Stock Market Panic."]

    Rachel Porter: [frightened] What are these pictures of?
