Two groups of people are on an isolated island, and one party vows to kill the other. Separation and reunion, good and evil, are all human characteristics. William used to dissect it for you to see, and now so does the great director.
It's just that Scott is more particular about character design and visual effects. And the two groups of people in the movie are humans and robots, a classic dramatic conflict.
Female killing robots continue to discover themselves, and male babysitting robots continue to increase cultural self-confidence. Watching her fly and kill is the coolest (high-energy ultrasound?), the flying posture is close to the Marvel series, and the shape is close to the metropolis. A cruel matriarchal society, big feminism.
On the human side, Caleb, an orphan who grew up in the war, put on another high-level human skin and began to live with his wife. There was also a high level that ruled by religion, which was later replaced.
2 What kind of setup the robot has is important. "Mother" seems to have passed the Turing experiment and has not only its own mind, but also its own feelings. If she flew up, she would be a killing machine, invincible in the world.
In episode 5, we see her falling in love with her creator, Campion. She expresses love and experiences love. For children, her feelings are not limited to a robot. She left tears for the 6th baby during the delivery in episode 1, so she is a human wearing a robot coat.
Scott's setting of the heroine is at the heart of the contradiction. It also makes the development of the plot uncertain. She can be a warm mother on Kepler 22B, and suddenly she is a killing machine, even her son and husband can't stand him.
This setting reminds me of the heroines in Westworld. 3
Scott's biggest flaw is that he did not introduce the philosophical dialogue mechanism of The Matrix and Westworld. Using philosophical dialogue to comment on the technological phenomenon that occurred is an excellent complement.
Therefore, the film focuses on small things, such as human couples who are always quarreling about changing their appearance or adopting a new child. The adopted son always pays attention to the little white mouse. The Man in the Iron Mask is always praying. Almost all of them appear in a stereotyped image, without deep excavation.
Scott is technical, so he likes to play with these external things. Always arouse the curiosity of the audience with a new invention or new mechanism, but the rest he does nothing. So what we are most impressed with is his two spaceships, one designed like a razor, the other designed like a whistle.
