I haven't eaten the first bowl of rice, and the second bowl is sour again.

On Friday evening at 6:15, a friend called me to tell me that there was an extra movie ticket for Alice 2 at 7 o'clock, and asked if I wanted to watch it. I looked at the freshly boiled spicy beef instant noodles on the induction cooker, hesitated for five seconds and agreed. This five-second hesitation is because I haven't watched Alice 1, but I have watched Alice 1's trailer countless times. On the electronic screen of Hangzhou City Railway Station, I felt like I really wanted to watch it. Movies, but because I was still a very poor student at the time, I always took the slowest green-skinned train, and loved Laotan pickled cabbage noodles and pickled chicken feet, which were the most stimulating to my taste buds. At that time, I was almost reluctant to go to the cinema to watch a movie. The ticket price for one movie was almost the cost of my food for a week. Later, when I could watch it online, I watched the title for about five minutes, but I didn’t continue to watch it. , because I think this type of movie is made for the cinema, and my 14-inch HP laptop can't explain it. Later, the projector was very long grass, and I swore that when I got a projector, I would definitely watch all the movies I didn't see in the cinema. This includes Alice 1 .
When I received a call from a friend, my heart almost collapsed. The first reaction in my brain was how can I finish this steaming pot of instant noodles as quickly as possible and then rush to the cinema; the second The first reaction is that I haven't watched Alice 1, the plot will not keep up, but the idea of ​​not watching it for nothing finally defeated everything, because although I am no longer a student, I am still not rich.
Now let’s talk about the main topic. The film begins in the Straits of Malacca, and I began to guess that this is a film related to Chinese culture. I actually don’t like foreign films that talk about Chinese culture. I always feel that they don’t understand. Fortunately, there is no depth other than clothes. The picture, color, and clothing are all unsuccessful. To be honest, I don't think it has the expected effect. When she entered the mirror and started her fantasy journey, God, all I had in my mind was the simple and crude combination of the two movies "The Thief" and "Night at the Museum". I also told myself that this is just an opening, and the exciting things may be at the back. When she came to the fairy tale world, I probably knew the story began. When I saw Anne Hathaway and Johnny Depp babbling on, I thought the story was about to begin. Sure enough, the brave Alice was determined to travel and find time, and the story really wanted to become more and more interesting.
But it seems that the story is really not as exciting as you think. Time is a person. Well, where does time come from? If he is time, how did he come into being? Who was the time before people. This question is really maddening, but fortunately this is still a simple story, Alice just wants to get a magic ball, so that she can move freely like a drawer in Doraemon. Next is probably a set of special relativity. Can we change the present by traveling back to the past? So Alice began her surfing in the sea of ​​time. After a few rounds, we found that Alice was unable to change, and forcing the change would freeze time and freeze the love. So will time pass after being frozen? Is time a wave or a particle? During the whole process, I was actually recalling the "A Brief History of Time" that Wuwei pretended to have watched a little at that time, and then I became even more confused.
As for whether the special effects can be worth the ticket price, I didn't spend any money anyway, it just took some time, and I probably won't watch the first one again, the time saved just equalized. Just like eating a bowl of sour rice, you don't even want to know what it tastes like when it's not sour.
