Shimmering City －－－ Find the way of light

The film is full of fantasy. The film creates a huge underground city. In order to escape, scientists and builders built this city, and at the same time left a mysterious box. It is set 200 years to crack one of them. Mystery, some people superficially think that this is a children's film, which shows that he has not understood the profound humanistic meaning contained in the film. The reason why the film sets the protagonists on the two teenagers is just to correspond to the fears of a group of old scientists about the fate of mankind at the beginning, and put the heroic characters who solve the mystery of darkness on the two children. The huge contrast of youthful curiosity at the end just reflects the value of this film, because only children have the most primitive curiosity, and only children can undertake the mission of solving the future destiny of this underground city. Instead of simply thinking that this is a children's film.



I admire Jill, the director of this film. Crane's talent, such a young and talented director can make the film so dreamy and philosophical is commendable. The city imagined in the film also has great imagination in props and scenery, full of modern and retro. It means that the light used in photography is clearly layered. The lighting system of the huge city uses a warm tone of red, which has a warm feeling, and the dark light is replaced by blue, which is dark but not indifferent, making the color of the whole film so magnificent. The city built under the city for two hundred years is colorful and colorful, so that the fantasy characteristics of the film can be fully expressed. Although the film is similar to a deciphering road of exploration and has any novelty, it has been seen in many Hollywood movies, and even a bit like 3D in the center of the earth, but the ending of the film is still different and novel, and what it brings to the audience is to break through the darkness The shock of seeing the light.



When the three children saw the light of the above world and the lights of the underground city through the cave, the strong contrast made the film sublime to a new height. When the doomsday comes, human beings can choose to escape, but they should be brave. of seeking light.
