Wandering the earth, too bad

The Wandering Earth is too bad, worse than expected. I have read the novel, and I am also a Liu Cixin fan, but when it was put on the screen, I was still too disappointed. The screenwriter's ability is really pediatric, although I can see that He took care of himself before and after, and put in a little effort, but the book itself was not selected. The director's basic skills are not enough, and the set of the whole film is too amateur. With such set skills, it is impossible to support the pattern of this kind of film. The biggest slot, can the earth's so many pushers really push the earth instead of letting it fall apart? The plot in the novel is still passable, but when it is made into a movie, especially a sci-fi movie, the story should be rationalized in terms of basic physical logic. The only commendable thing about the whole film is that the logic of the story is still coherent, and the excitement is also considered. It's in place, but this is not a romance movie, my friend, the quality of the whole movie is poor, there are too many imitations of other successful movies, it is too contrived, and the screenwriter does not work hard on science, so those who advocate "the first year of Chinese science fiction movies" , you are harming Chinese science fiction. If you really want to make a science fiction film, you should start with a good script and a good director, instead of surpassing someone and setting a benchmark. The whole movie is so unkind, it makes it clear that it is playing Liu Cixin's card to make money, like a poor-quality composition that a primary school student gave to his teacher after the holiday, but to make this kind of money you have to respect the audience, you have no rationality, no With control over this subject matter, why make sci-fi movies?

    When I walked out of the theater, a girl behind me said three words to her companion: "The plot of this movie is very general, and the high score on the Internet is probably because of the special effects. And why are there so many sensationalities." I agree with her view. This film makes me feel the most insufficiency, that is, the lack of people, humanity, human civilization and humanistic care. I can't see all kinds of people, I can't see human nature with emotions and six desires, and I can't see colorful human civilization. I only see all kinds of bad sci-fi settings, and all kinds of high-tech that are not necessarily brilliant. To the highest level of special effects in domestic films. However, without people, all this is pale. When refugees in "The Day After Tomorrow" argue in the library over whether to burn Nietzsche's books, trying to protect the Gutenberg Bible, a landmark of Western civilization, such details can be awe-inspiring. High civilization is not so pale that only high technology is left. Even at the most critical moment, we still think of some eternal human cultural motifs. Their value transcends little love and love, and also transcends family and country feelings. I am afraid that they are the true meaning of a community with a shared future for mankind. 【Xiantao Drama Corner】

    As a sci-fi fan, it's disappointing. If you want to get two stars, at best it's a mediocre Hollywood space disaster movie. There is absolutely no super shock as expected, because this film is actually not imaginative. Many of the pictures and plots are transplanted from classic/well-known sci-fi films, and they don't even have their own style. Nothing new can make you feel the awe and dense attraction of mysterious universe exploration. If you are a sci-fi fan who has watched a lot of sci-fi movies, you will not be excited or even tremble at any picture or plot. As a Chinese audience, I think I can still give it three and a half stars. After all, at least the level of special effects has gone up, and at least it won't look too low in front of Hollywood. Overall, this is still a hundred and eighty thousand miles away from the high-level sci-fi film I expected, which is full of humanities, scientific wisdom and aesthetics. Sigh again, Kubrick is really awesome, Lao Lei is worth kneeling down, and Nolan is really irreplaceable!
