Because he is Ang Lee

Ang Lee is a gentle person, the kind of person who speaks slowly even when he gets angry. The same seems to be true of Will Smith in Gemini Man, even if he is a killer who can kill a target sitting on a moving high-speed train from a hundred meters away. However, it should be difficult for people without prior knowledge to guess that "Gemini Man" and "The Wedding Banquet" were produced by the same person. The same can be said for the recent "Billy Lynn". Ang Lee's works are always changing. .

The amazing special effects, the almost distorted scenery in the lens, the sharp language of the editing, the tight plot, the two hours of the movie is not redundant at all... Wait, because he is Ang Lee, so he is the best I can be. All can feel excusable.

Also because he is Ang Lee, I would think that he pulled out the question of human nature in such a straightforward way, and then left the question of to be or not to be to us on purpose, and it was not the director's skill. hook up. It's a pity that my skill is not enough to prove whether giving up one person to save ten thousand people will destroy humanity, or whether giving up ten thousand people to save one person will destroy human nature.

ps: I think that the old friends of the protagonist die one after another, maybe because a person has gained a complete self, and he will lose something other than himself.

    "Children wait for their parents to say sorry, but parents wait for their children to say thank you". The "Father Trilogy" focuses on the compromise of fatherhood in Eastern families; after becoming a father, he turns to emphasize the resistance of sons in his writings in Western families. With the sci-fi proposition of "Gemini", Ang Lee explores the collision of "rationality and sensibility" faced by the relationship of "father and son" from two perspectives of different age groups on the same character. The father and son have truly become a whole, and the opposites can be unified to extend/retrospect the eternal creative motif: the emotional formula between Yu Jiaolong, Li Mubai, and the blue-eyed fox, which is also "clone" by the author to the two Smith and Owen Love and Kill in the command.

    120fps+3D+2K / The texture of the water shot in the three-dimensional space still makes me feel fascinating. The light and faces under the night are also favored by this new camera. The effects (emotional and technical) presented by Smith, young and old, are also well completed. It is a pity that the script problem is really big, and there are too many waste pens. Obviously this is because Ang Lee did not get greater creative freedom, but in the audiovisual scheduling of several key scenes, we can clearly see the ingenuity of dealing with symbiosis.
