The Chinese translation of the film "Moscow Has Fallen" obviously misled domestic audiences, because the content of the work could not be said to have "fallen" at all. Looking back at the English translation now, it is clear at a glance, "Attraction" (attraction), this translation is appropriate, and directly reflects the outline of the story - the heroine empathizes and does not love aliens.
Although the film is under the banner of science fiction, the actual content of the discussion goes far beyond the word "science fiction". In some respects, especially the first half of the work, it is reminiscent of the American sci-fi ethics and philosophy film "Arrival" released some time ago, while the second half of the "dog blood" plot makes the style of the work take a turn for the worse, the old-fashioned love triangle. , cheesy fighting scenes, so that the film's highlights dropped sharply.
Not much gossip, entering the film review stage, divided into two parts, one main line "love" - the heroine and aliens (similar to the Korean romance film "You Who Came From the Stars"), and the other main line "chaos"- - In particular, the complexity and chaos of the plot.
Love Chapter - The heroine falls in love with an alien. Just a little background. The alien spacecraft crashed into Moscow, which directly led to the death of the heroine's girlfriend. The heroine and her boyfriend were both angry and went to the high-rise building with guns to settle accounts with the aliens. As a result, the heroine fell accidentally and was rescued by the aliens. Then the style of painting changed, and the boyfriend brought someone along, KO the alien (male protagonist), the female protagonist was grateful for his life-saving grace, and secretly saved the male protagonist. Afterwards, the plot went all the way to "qingqing, me and me", looking for a crystal ball, chatting, eating and eating, it was simply indulging in singing and dancing, flying together. Although the boyfriend came out to disrupt the situation at the end of the film (killing the male and female protagonists), but the script limited the relationship. The aliens brought them back to the spaceship, put them into the medical cabin, and then the female protagonist was resurrected with blood (staying on Earth); the male protagonist continued In a coma, he was taken away from the earth; his boyfriend was taken away by the military due to his own impulse. Three people, three roads.
"Messy" article. Speaking of love, let's take a look at the structure and plot of the story.
The first impression is that the overall sense is not strong and the structure is loose. Human nature, politics, war and other in-depth content are covered, but the point is to stop, you need to think twice before you can fully understand the content.
Secondly, the inexplicable turn from the selling point of science fiction to the theme of "fraternity" (to be precise, "love"). The alien plane crashed at the beginning, which suddenly pulled the audience's judgment to the category of "disaster movie". As a result, this was just a pretense, and the audience was stunned. As the heroine came into contact with the alien hero, the style of the film began to change. Suddenly changed - from hard science fiction to cute love. The magical turning point of the painting style and the bizarre change of the plot made the audience who were waiting to watch the sci-fi film stunned. The director of "Maozi" won again. The audience is once again deceived.
Finally, the deep connotation is just a touch of the water. Different from the unique connotation of "Arrival", the metaphors of this work are numerous and scattered. Perhaps due to the limited amount of sponsorship, the human nature (fraternity), politics (arrogance), and war (preemptive strikes) are all just scratching the surface. To make it clear, there is a feeling of wanting to stop talking and want to stop, which makes the audience anxious.
I spent more than 2 hours drowsy. After the curtain ended, I still remembered only the beginning and end of the movie. One was the crash of the spaceship and the other was over the spaceship. As for the plot of the love triangle, just forget it after reading it. Overall, slightly disappointed.
