The movie has some good points but not enough

.Space and time are common and never old subjects in sci-fi movies...The biggest problem in the movie is "pseudo-logic"..
When he foresees the future, it actually creates a double future..All he foresees is the inaction of the master The future under normal circumstances...but he chose to change..then the second future becomes reality (that is, the future after changing something)..and the second future can never be foreseen for long..at most In fact, you can only foresee the time of one thing (unless you choose not to act after the foreseen future, but who will choose?) The future is actually changing forever... This logical problem has not been solved by the director... As for what you said the plot will be Happened according to his plan.. all I can say is... they are going according to the script... that's nothing to discuss... if there is a fake plot in the movie and it continues to happen... I can only It is said that it is necessary for the plot...or the director is not talented...
the best logical processing I have ever seen is "Inception"..it is perfect..this movie is also the theme of space and time...this The movie is really like it... As for the "memory rift", I think it is better.. but it is not enough. . . . I just read another film reviewer that the protagonist predicts the future over and over again and then designs his own route... well... I'm afraid that's the only way to tell what didn't happen in the protagonist's second future movie... ...but...the movie doesn't reflect the situation that the protagonist has foreseen the future many times...still not good enough... .
But aside from the nitpick... this movie is worth watching overall... not bad.... but I found this "memory rift" name on some of the "most mind-blowing movies" lists.. .but I think they got it wrong...that should be "Memento" (yes..this movie also seems to have been made by a famous director...I can't remember)...that's what it's called Brainstorming...this is not really...the list is really unprofessional...I can't get used to it...counting movies....

    The suspense rhythm of the first hour was very exciting, downplaying the sci-fi attributes, starting from a pile of junk, all kinds of suspense were well laid out, and the "wrong person" mode was well used, and even many places looked very "Hitch" Kirk". It's a pity that the explanation in the second half was weak, which ruined the originally good suspense and turned into a John Woo-style action movie. The protagonist also played his due level.

    Barely two points. Look asleep. If this is the cost of the announcement, it should not lose money, but it can't hide the failure of "Wind Whisperer", and it is finally John Woo's curtain call performance in Hollywood. The script should focus on science fiction. Big Ben will act as a scientific research talent. After each completion, he will be brainwashed by the employer to clear his working memory. After working for a friend for three years, he will use his ability to predict the future to get rid of the suspicion of illegality and reap nearly 100 million yuan in compensation. It’s still quite interesting, brainwashing and traveling through time and space in disguise. The big book without amnesia left a bunch of inexplicable but useful little things for the future self, but the actual processing is like "Escape from the Clone Island", adding a bunch of The clumsy action scenes, the killer had to block the balloon shooting when sniping at Big Ben, and the confrontation between two people with guns in the subway was a mechanical presentation of John Woo's past movie scenes, and then the scene where the train was forced to stop was handled in a shabby way, which is a thrilling design that is not thrilling. The emaciated Thurman was nothing to show off as a complete tool man. It shows how Big Ben, who has not lost his memory, saves that pile of small objects after trial and error, which is more interesting than the current main line
