When science fiction films were born, their soul was scientific conception and profound meaning. Without them, science fiction could not be science fiction. For example, the world's first science fiction film "Moon Journey", the French have bold imagination and sense of humor. It is full of display and has a sense of pioneering work.
And look at our "Cyberman" and "Future Cop", I have an urge to cry after watching, is this a science fiction movie? This is obviously a special effects action movie! Such a film without scientific conception and profound meaning really cannot be called "science fiction".
And after I watched "Alternative Dimensional Hacker", I suddenly felt like I was stuck in it. "Different Dimensional Hacker" has the breath of Zhuang Zhou's dream of butterflies, the real and the illusion alternate, the reality with the illusion, the illusion with the reality, and the illusion even with a deeper illusion. The replacement link is the virtual Characters and their creators.
When the film's ending ends with the scene screen closed in 2024, we have to guess that everything in 2024 may not be real, and it may be another layer of illusion.
I think we should not discuss what is real and what is illusion in this film, because that is not what the film itself is telling us. In fact, it is not important to distinguish between reality and illusion. The important reminder lies in the powerful shot of the virtual police. : "Don't bother us again!"
Only if you believe in your own truth, this is the real truth.
