Thanks to the organization of the film group, I am fortunate to watch the top version of "120 frames + 4K + 3D" in advance.
Let’s talk about the hardware technology first, the 4K effect of 120 frames is not covered, the clearest movie I have ever seen (Billy Sean because he didn’t watch 120 frames), to be honest, every scene with a lot of scenery always has a kind of need. The feeling of being integrated into it is really that the pores, fine hair, and hair are clearly visible. Some people complain that Ang Lee is too addicted to technology, but I really think that "hardware can drive software". In such a high-definition situation, if there is any makeup, props, and acting skills Defects will be magnified at a glance, so technological innovation means that related skills in the industry must be improved. This must be one of the important factors in the progress of the film's development history. The details can be seen in the movie when Xiao Ke cried with bloodshot eyes. , facial twitching, etc., some domestic traffic actors "fighting thick foundation concealer", "filter + five hair special effects photo editing", "eye drops and crying", "shoulder shaking and crying" are all included in ordinary movies. It is extremely embarrassing. If it becomes 120 frames + 4K, it will be very eye-catching, so I also want to praise Ang Lee for pushing the film forward.
In addition, under the effect of 120 frames + 4K + 3D, hand-to-hand fighting is really enjoyable. It is not a gimmick that suddenly scares the audience, but it really feels like the real effect of someone fighting beside you. .
When it comes to stories, Ang Lee is really good at telling stories. The topic of "cloning" is already a commonplace, and there is not much new ideas, but Ang Lee can make every character have a story halo. There is the possibility of deep digging, which is very rare, because there are many points to think about with each character, so a two-hour movie can be said to have no urine points. After watching it, it feels like ninety minutes. The following is Some personal thoughts on the role:
The protagonist Henry (the English name I gave myself is also Henry hahaha), an ordinary person has been trained to become the backbone killer of the intelligence bureau. While gaining achievements, he sacrificed many experiences that ordinary people should have in their lives, such as family love. , family, emotions, etc., as he got older and some real information from the intelligence bureau, he began to discover his conscience and hoped to return to ordinary life. Here it shows that he regrets the sacrifice of his previous achievements, and the appearance of Xiaoke in the movie—— A young self who came from himself, with the exact same genes, is walking on the old path that he regrets, so he wants to change that self (suddenly thinking of the lyrics: If I can do it all over again, I will choose Li Bai), not letting him ( My younger self at the moment) I regret it like I am now in 30 years, here is a dialogue with another self, so it is a story of myself and myself, many people say that the father-son relationship here is too weak, I just want to say that from Where can I see that there is a father-son relationship between these two characters, and in the movie, Xiao Ke has been asking about the image of Henry's mother. This mother is Henry's mother who was conceived through human beings. Xiao Ke thinks that this is also his own mother (here it can be understood. Because Xiaoke's genes are copied from Henry, but Henry's genes are not created by himself, but by his parents, so Xiaoke's genes are also created by Henry's parents, not Henry, which means Henry The parents are also Xiao Ke's parents), so there is no father-son relationship here, but an old self preaching and persuading the younger self (in the movie, Xiao Ke has been taught what to avoid and what to do, including what to do for the sake of children K's mental health killed Clay for him, so that Xiao Ke would not have the righteous experience of "killing his father"), the younger self saw a possibility of getting old (Xiao Ke exclaimed at the end that after 30 years, he would become Henry now), that's the relationship.
The other protagonist, Xiao Ke, I think he has a lot of discussion points. First of all, he is a person (or tool) cloned by Clay through the Henry gene, but he always regards Clay as a father, even if he knows that he is He copied it through technology, and he copied many more. This kind of psychology shows that Henry and Danny were in deep danger. He just knocked Clay out. After knowing that Clay copied a lot of Henry, even if he wanted to kill him It's hard to get started. But that's not the main thing, his psychological changes are a sense of loss from a self-confessed good person when he learns that he is a substitute for someone who was good before, resentment of himself from being a "son" to a "tool" and wanting to kill" self” contradiction, and the acceptance of reality from being a successful replica of No. 1, to the emergence of a replica No. 2 whose “instrumentality” is stronger than himself, but his “humanity” is weaker than himself (there are even 3, 4, 5, 6 No.)'s three views are unacceptable, his changes are very rich, and he can see deep skills from his acting skills.
In fact, I really want to talk more about the role of "villain" Clay, because the subjective consciousness and three views of this role are very clear and strong, and the more traditional human rights of human clones are also mainly reflected in him. He is absolutely It is believed that human cloning has no human rights, because human cloning is a tool, and this topic has been discussed in many film and television literature works. "Contributors who provide healthy organs by the owner, such as "Blood Linglong" by domestic writer Bi Shumin, although it is not about human cloning, it is also a discussion of human rights for life with the same genes. The unborn mentioned in the book is a tool. Leaving the mother's body is an independent person, etc., let's get down to the business of Clay's character, he has his own theory of justice, that is, using clone tools to solve the harm caused by war to human beings, from his point of view, he is not only right, but also for the benefit of human beings . Another topic is actually the scene of the father-son relationship. If it has to be mentioned, it must be Clay and Xiaoke, not Henry and Xiaoke. Although Clay and Xiaoke have no blood relationship, Xiaoke is Clay's experiment. The No. 1 successful product, he has a unique feeling for Xiaoke. Through the movie, it is described that Clay's colleague Janet has been unmarried and childless, and Clay's state seems to be similar, so Clay should also have no family, so he put it. He believes that his emotional sustenance for his children is entirely on Xiao Ke (he emphasizes that his feelings for Xiao Ke are father-son love from the beginning to the end of the film, although it seems distorted), and he also believes that he can pass This kind of emotional control of Xiaoke (like in the end he doesn't believe Xiaoke will kill him), but Clone 3 (and probably more) is a tool for quantification, Clay has absolutely no feelings for them, so Clay The characters are also very rich in flesh and blood.
In addition, the role of flowers this time, Actress, does not have the kind of acting effect that needs to be very amazing, but the whole movie feels very comfortable and full of oxygen, especially the smile is very, very beautiful.
Ang Lee is really a treasure trove.
Because I am not a technical streamer, I cannot write anything of value from a technical point of view. Just starting from personal feelings, subjective things will still vary from person to person, and there may be many different voices. Let’s chat and discuss together. .
