Buried masterpiece

In fact, the first time I knew about the movie Jupiter Ascending was when I saw friends in the WeChat circle tweeting about it. The title was as unscrupulous as a gossip magazine: the heroine who flushes the toilet is the reincarnation of the Queen of the Universe. Therefore, selection of films in the cinema, I have been tangled or else to look at this pretty poor reputation of Jupiter Ascending, then think ... still believe in the power of ... The Wachowskis

after reading the essay found Tucao It's just sensationalism at all! The hostess is a serious cleaning girl, okay! The lens of flushing the toilet only flashed 5 times, okay! The Queen of the Universe is just a rich and powerful party who has territory and industry in the universe, okay!

Can't understand why Jupiter Ascending's reputation is so bad.

Talk about the most memorable highlights:

1. The heroine's family portrayal is very real.

The heroine Jupiter is an illegal immigrant of Russian descent. A family of relatives squeezed into a house to make a living by high-end private customized sanitation and cleaning services. At the beginning, the atmosphere in the Jupiter family was not harmonious. Uncle(?) complained that Jupiter couldn’t get married and spent money. Auntie(?) and mother started to scold Jupiter because of his uncle's complaints, and his cousin was not ashamed to persuade Jupiter to sell eggs. The demand is 2:1 open, and the cousin (?) sinisterly complained to his parents about his cousin. However, this low-level selfish, vulgar and noisy family portrayal was very vivid with just one dinner. Uncle repeatedly emphasized that the Russian that Speak English and his mother blurted out from time to time was the epitome of every immigrant family.

But when it was revealed that my cousin encouraged my cousin to sell eggs, I was beaten by my uncle and the family raised money to give Jupiter the telescope that Jupiter dreamed of. I was a little touched. The warmth and kindness of this vulgar and busy immigrant family are well grasped and powerful, and they do not portray the fetters of the family too much to appear deliberately sentimental.

2. When the heroine finally confronted the eldest brother, he showed that the

mother-in-law control eldest brother took the heroine’s family as hostages. When Jupiter confronted the eldest brother, he asked the eldest brother a more unexpected question:

Jupiter asked How Long will you reap earth?

Big brother overcast to make sure that I will not touch the earth as long as you are alive.

Then Jupiter made an unexpected decision. She said that she would rather give up the lives of herself and her family than her ownership of the earth.

I have seen some middle-aged people talk about pollution at the dinner table joking. They said, "The pollution won’t affect me while I’m alive." People in later generations, but anyway, it is not themselves who bear the consequences and what is wrong. The future humans living in dense smog and dust storms in "Interstellar" have nothing to do with them anyway.

But Jupiter's awareness instantly sublimated her image. Before that, she had always been a cleaning girl who suddenly won the lottery. She was weak, confused, helpless, gullible, easy to deceive, and lacking ambition. But when her life is dying, she is willing to sacrifice herself to consider more people, and consider that she will not live in an era that will not affect her.

This period of Jupiter shines, instantly as dazzling and broad as Jupiter.

3. When Jupiter walked into the hall of candlelight swaying in the territory of the second sister, the second sister said:

reincarnation is the reappearance of the same gene in the same arrangement.

It was the first time I heard such an incisive definition of the word incarnation. It was not leaking and could not be refuted. It is strongly recommended to include this definition in the dictionary.

The second sister also said: Time is the only precious resource in the universe.

Although I think the second sister of beauty expert refers to time can keep her young forever. But thinking about it in conjunction with the theory of relativity, this sentence is completely correct and quite profound.

The second sister is really a series of golden sentences, and it is recommended that the annual golden words award be awarded.

4. Some small jokes adjusted the tense atmosphere, making the whole drama tight and powerful, but not overly stimulating the tense

heroine to use sanitary napkins to stop the bleeding of the heroine in the car;

When Jupiter and lawyers want to obtain legal rights in the federal office, each office's excuses are simply the epitome of the world. It's sad that robots have to learn to pay bribes.

At the solemn moment of the confrontation between Jupiter and the eldest brother, the eldest brother said abruptly: My mother has never used the toilet. The heroine answered her question smartly.

There is also Jupiter's sentence I like Dogs. (I also like the handsome and vigorous Dog like the male protagonist)

5. Sister Wachowski has always been very caring about the scene. Magnificent palaces, steampunk-style industrial buildings, gorgeous and dazzling spaceships and battleships, various high-end props and handsome shoes of the hero. It's a visual feast.

The heroine's actor looks fair, but she has a great body. Wearing tight jeans, black tights and a vest, he looks slim and capable. The male protagonist has a great body and a cold temperament. The combat suit, gun and boots he wears are very handsome.

And the wings of the last actor are very beautiful. I have always hoped that SPN can make special effect wings for angels, but the director always implicitly and tactfully use the silhouette of the wings to express...the

unsatisfactory shortcomings are in two places:

1. The elder brother, the second sister and the third brother’s territorial battleship daily necessities Obviously, it is the high-end technology style of the future world, and the clothing, jewelry and food are indeed the ancient European court style. These two styles are full of contradiction in the same life. Why do the highly-developed universe lords prefer to wear gorgeous retro dresses instead of more high-end and comfortable high-tech products? (And this kind of life is the retrogression of technological progress and democracy!)

But this is understandable. If you ask me how do you think high-tech aliens should eat, wear, and wear, and what jewelry, I can’t answer, and it’s hard to imagine. Because

YOU CANNOT imagine SOMETHING unimaginable!

No matter how imaginative, we are not people in the future world. I think human imagination is limited, and people cannot think of unimaginable things. For example, the shoes of warships and airplanes that are out of gravity, etc., designers still start from the prototype of existing objects to imagine; it is really not easy to imagine and create things like lifestyle changes.

2. The emotional line between the hero and the heroine goes a bit quickly and inexplicably.

Jupiter fell in love with Hunter who was hired to find him so quickly?! (The male

protagonist 's face and body can explain love at first sight) When did the male protagonist fall in love with Jupiter?

Is the black history of the male protagonist gone? The male protagonist hates the royal family and the heroine is a member of the royal family. Does this grudge pass?

Their kiss in the flames of war and the plot of the male protagonist encircling the female protagonist with his wings is extremely beautiful, but how they fell in love seems a bit far-fetched.

Wachowski’s love scenes are not as good as action scenes.

There are also a few small bugs:

1. When the mercenary hired by the second sister came to capture the heroine, the hero caught the hull of the spaceship to follow. Then the camera switches the spacecraft through the atmosphere. It seems that the hero does not need to breathe air.

But when the actor was exiled to the death zone, he wore a space suit, and there was a voice prompt that oxygen could only be used for 37 minutes.

Does the actor need to breathe air or not?

2. The earth originated 4.6 billion years ago. The late Cretaceous dinosaurs were extinct about 65.5 million years ago. The so-called queen of the universe was more than 90,000 years old... This doesn't seem right...

I always listen to English. The response of the numbers is relatively slow, I don’t know if the translation is wrong... Is it billion translation wrong?


Finally, let’s talk about word-of-mouth issues:

Jupiter Ascending’s scenes are magnificent and beautiful, the action scenes are wonderful, and the plot is okay. I really can’t understand why word-of-mouth is so bad.

At least the Wachowski brothers and sisters are sincere, creative and imaginative.

Today I saw a poster of Cinderella in the movie theater. Although there are two my goddesses, Kate and Helena, I have to make complaints:

These days, under the banner of subverting fairy tale feminism, look for a few beautiful and famous reputations. The actress of the actress plays a supporting role as a villain, such as a queen/stepmother/witch, and then a lesser-known young actor plays the leading actor and heroine, and then walks through the original book, and arranges several plays for the heroine. Feminism is on the rise, the hero is playing soy sauce in a group of stunning, focusing on portraying the tragic experience of the beautiful villain, even if the new perspective of the times exudes the glorious universal feelings of humanity. The final standard ending. After watching, the audience praised the beautiful villain’s face and acting skills, mocked the heroine’s face as inferior to the villain, questioned the aesthetics of the magic mirror or the prince, and finally felt joyful that they had watched a creative new interpretation of classic fairy tales. .

Why is it considered to be creative and thoughtful by adding new elements to an old-fashioned story? Why do people only complain about the vulgar story frame of works full of creativity and imagination?

(No Offense to Cinderella)
