From the destruction of the moon to the ecological collapse of the earth, from the high-altitude ecological villas to the suspended drones that scan in all directions, the first half of the movie builds a desolate and fascinating world of hardcore technology.
As the story unfolded, the fact that the garrison work could not retain memory, there were only two troops left behind, the high-tech aliens invaded and became stray bandits on the earth, etc. were all explained. Although the protagonist is still full of gunfights, the protagonist does not die, the enemy does not shoot when facing the heroine, and sacrifices for love, justice, and salvation of mankind, etc., but I have to say that this movie is rare in 2013. A good science fiction movie with a lot of ideas and a wide range of ideas.
1. The story
clarifies the world in the movie from the beginning. The sequence of the story should be like this:
Before 2017, Jack fell in love with Julia and proposed to Julia while she was looking into the distance with a telescope on a skyscraper. , Julia agreed to him. The two agreed to build a house by the lake in the future and live together.
In 2017, NASA sent 7 astronauts to explore Titan (Titan) aboard the Odyssey. 3 astronauts were the main pilot Jack (should be a soldier) and Julia (Jack) Wife), the co-pilot Vika. Due to the long journey, the spacecraft is equipped with a hibernation cabin.
When the Odyssey flies into near-Earth space (because the Odyssey and the Earth can maintain real-time contact in the movie, it can be seen that the Odyssey is not too far away from the Earth), an inverted pyramid-shaped alien spacecraft (called Tate in the movie) ) Appeared in low-Earth orbit. At this time, except for the two pilots, the other 5 personnel of the Odyssey had entered hibernation. The Odyssey changed its plan and prepared to make contact with the alien spacecraft Tate first.
When preparing for contact, Sally, the person who made ground contact with the Odyssey, chatted with Jack about the Super Bowl finals that year, but due to Tate's strong gravitational force on the Odyssey, the contact was interrupted. Jack detached the hibernation cabin from the Odyssey and set to return to Earth. Jack and Vika enter Tate with the Odyssey.
Tate shattered the half moon for some reason, and then cloned thousands of Jacks to invade the earth. During the war, the earth's ecosystem was greatly destroyed, and the few remaining humans went underground or caved to survive.
Tate built many platforms on the earth to extract energy from the water, and sent a large number of drones to wipe out the remaining humans. Using cloned Jack and Vika, each group of 2 people will be brainwashed and placed in different areas to distribute an ecological villa and some weapons and maintenance supplies to repair drones and guard platforms. Tate disguised as Sally to contact each group of Jack and Vika and issue instructions. Jack and Vika, who have lost their memory, believe that the destruction of the moon and the collapse of the earth’s ecosystem are due to the invasion of the earth by some kind of aliens whose mother star has been destroyed. To continue to survive, except for their own jurisdictions, they are all unsuitable radiation areas, so the remaining humans are moved to Tate. After the platform draws enough resources, all humans will be immigrated to Titan to live on Titan. . And their task is to stay on the earth, repair drones and guard platforms, and repel the harassment war of aliens remaining on the surface. Jack and Vika, who have lost their memories, think they are the best partners, and they are lovers.
Jack in the 49th group will always dream of the first fragment of Jack’s memory, including Julia. He collected some relics of human civilization during patrols and built a house by the lake in a valley in his jurisdiction.
In 2077, Jack 49 encountered an "alien" during a patrol and picked up a book. This situation was noticed by Malcolm, the leader of the "alien", who was actually the remnant of the terrestrial rebels. Malcolm believed that Jack 49 still retained humanity.
Jack 49 and Vika discovered that a certain platform was destroyed by "aliens."
Jack 49 detected the "alien" signal, which led the Odyssey hibernation chamber to land in the 17th area of ​​Jack 49's jurisdiction. Jack 49 rushed to the scene and rescued Julia from hibernation. The other four personnel were shot and killed by drones.
When Julia woke up, she saw her husband and Vika became a couple, and noticed that they had no memories of the past. She asked Jack to take her back to the Odyssey to retrieve the driving record. After returning to the Odyssey, the two were ambushed by Malcolm and others and brought them back to the Earth Resistance Base. Malcolm asked Jack to use drones and nuclear bombs to destroy Tate. Jack 49, who didn't know the truth, rejected Malcolm's proposal. Malcolm released Jack 49 and Julia, and told Jack that the truth was hidden in the radiation zone.
Jack 49 recovers the memory of being with Julia, knowing that Julia is his wife, and there is a conspiracy under Tate's order. Vicar, who had not recovered his memory, saw the intimacy of the two people, and did not listen to Jack's explanation in anger, but reported it to Tate. Tate activated the drone with the intention of destroying group 49 members, but only wiped out Weika 49. Tate asked Jack 49 to take Julia to Tate.
Jack 49 had a battle with the drone and crashed into the radiation zone. At this time, he discovered that the same himself was on duty in the radiation zone, but No. 52. Jack 52 flashed back his memory when he saw Julia. After a fight Jack 49 won, but the stray bullet hit Julia. Jack 49 snatched the No. 52 aircraft and returned to the residence of Group 52. He saw Vika No. 52. He retrieved the medical equipment and saved Julia (Jack No. 52, who had been tied up, escaped), and Take Julia to the lake house he built.
Jack 49 and Julia returned to Malcolm's base. Tate sent three drones to attack the base. The drone that was used to destroy Tate was scrapped in the battle.
Julia proposes to put the nuclear bomb in the hibernation chamber and follow Tate's request to go to Tate with Jack 49 to detonate the nuclear bomb. Jack 49 adopted Julia's strategy, but sent the hibernating Julia back to the lake house, put the nuclear bomb and Malcolm into the hibernation cabin and brought Tate.
Tate was successfully destroyed by Jack 49 and Malcolm. The drones on the earth have all lost control, and the humans on the earth have gained freedom.
In 2080, the rebels found Jack 52, who had restored their memory, and brought Jack 52 back to the lakeside cottage to meet Julia.
2. Analyze the
whole story flashbacks in memory and amnesia, sway between truth and falsehood, in some respects extremely high-end technology, but full of loopholes in some weak links, the whole story is actually the appearance of Tate The rebellion with humans is unclear.
1. Why was the moon destroyed?
Malcolm once mentioned that just like that, the moon was destroyed. In the movie, we also saw that the southern hemisphere of the moon on the sky was completely broken and turned into a ring. Terry's purpose in destroying the moon may have the following aspects: One is to deter mankind and urge mankind to surrender. The soldiers who surrendered without fighting allowed the earthlings to give up resistance, thereby turning all mankind into slaves, and the cost of building platforms and repairing drones was the lowest. But the riddled with holes on the earth prove that mankind has not surrendered weakly. Second, it is very likely that there is a human defense force on the moon against space invasion. In the film, we know that the Odyssey itself was to investigate Titan's flight into space. Now that mankind has the ability to investigate Titan, does it mean that mankind may have established a base on the moon, or even a military base? This is very possible. Whether it is to prevent asteroids from hitting the earth or to conduct weapon tests in outer space, there is a strong possibility that Tate has a headache on the moon. The third is the destruction of tidal energy, which facilitates the extraction of earth's water resources. Tate’s energy battery can be transformed into a nuclear bomb, so Tate may draw water from the earth to use heavy hydrogen such as deuterium and tritium as energy. Without tidal energy, the earth's calm and calm platform is easier to absorb. Although high-tech platforms should not care about the wind and waves, it is more convenient to achieve this goal while completing the first two projects.
2. What exactly is Tate?
Tate used a lot of methods that seemed clumsy to us, and did not look like an extraterrestrial creature with high intelligence and civilization. From the final image, Tate is closer to an intelligent machine. From the analysis of the movie, Tate can clone creatures, can make creatures amnesia and other biological means. Tate can also monitor the planet, issue instructions to platforms and drones, and draw planet resources. Tate also has some civilian industrial functions, such as the production of uniforms for humans, light weapons suitable for human use, aircraft and houses with swimming pools. But Tate is definitely not a von Neumann robot (that is, it can produce the same robot as itself). Tate will not build another Tate, and it will not produce platforms and drones. In the movie, Tate In particular, UAVs are in short supply. They can only be repaired by clones, and even they don’t even have the means to build a communications satellite. Once the earth’s rotation obstructs the signal, Tate cannot issue instructions to Group 49 “online”. When Tate exploded, all drones failed. We can imagine that in the night after the earth’s rotation, all drones actually lost control, because Tate couldn’t build communication satellites and build a ring. The signal network of the earth. All of this shows that Tate, who has destroyed the Earth's ecosystem and defeated all mankind, is probably just a scientific expedition spacecraft sent by an alien civilization! Or a commercial spaceship that plunders the resources of the wild planet and pulls it back to sell for money! This also explains why Tate has sent thousands of cloned Jacks to attack the earth. The answer is that this guy has no heavy weapons at all! (Analyzed from this perspective, Tate’s way of destroying the moon is probably also using a large number of unreplaceable drones as nuclear bombs. This also caused Tate to be so stingy in investing in drones.
3. Jack and Wei How many sets of cards are there?
The jurisdiction of the 49th group is really not small. If Jack stood on the sea level, he would be able to see the jurisdiction with a radius of 4 kilometers, and the 49-group station was at a very high position, and the platform for drawing resources was also quite a tall building. To prevent clones from knowing the existence of other clones, it must be restricted that Jack cannot see other places where there are residences, aircraft, and platforms when he rides in the aircraft. For example, when the platform explodes in 49 jurisdictions, it cannot be seen in other jurisdictions. At the same time, a large area of ​​"radiation zone" is needed between the jurisdiction and the jurisdiction as a buffer. Otherwise, one day the 49th will fly to the border and the opposite 52 will be flying close to the border. Even the "radiation zone" buffer zone is much larger than the jurisdiction of a group of clones. According to this analysis, there should not be more than 100 sets of Jack and Vika on the entire planet. Vika mentioned in the movie many times that he applied to Tate for resources, including drones and batteries, so it seems that their food reserves should also come from Tate. When the Tate is destroyed, the drone will lose control. The aircraft and motorcycle should still be able to use the battery until the battery is dead. The other groups of Jack and Vika can only depend on each other and find a way to find resources in their jurisdiction to survive. The poorest is Vika 52, because Jack 52 went to find Julia, she can only find a way to survive alone.
4. What about the future of mankind?
From the valley where Julia lives, it can be seen that the earth’s ecosystem has not been completely destroyed, and radiation is also a scam. A lot of water resources on the earth are stored in the platform, but have not been transported to Tate. After the war With fewer earth resources, but fewer creatures, the Rebels still lived for 60 years, and Julia also lived in the valley for 3 years. The only question is whether the destruction of the biological garden will affect the ecological balance, leading to a complete ecological collapse after decades, but according to the movie, nature's self-repair is still very powerful. It can be seen that as long as human beings work harder, there is still hope for recasting civilization.
5. Where is the creator of Tate?
From the perspective of Tate's ability to plunder resources, it is difficult for Tate's creators to perish due to lack of resources. As analyzed above, Tate basically does not have the ability to supplement its own weapons (referring to drones, rather than using biotechnology to create a cloned army), that is, Tate does not have the ability to sail in the universe. In other words, the location of the creator of Tate is very close to the earth (for them), which can facilitate Tate to send back resources, feed back biological information, supply drones and then re-survey in other directions. So unless the creator of Tate is completely wiped out due to a sudden cosmic disaster or war, and this film has a good box office response, we can look forward to the second one, the story of the creator of Tate coming to earth to continue fighting. .
3. The ending
humanity has won a victory, Jack 52 became a dad effortlessly, it seems that everyone is happy. But the moon has disappeared forever, and mankind has to work hard to retrieve technology, civilization, and everything.
The Tate facing this time is just a small character. Don’t look at it destroying the moon at once, but after that, it can only send clones to attack the earth. This is a single shot that can kill all of your force, but then only An enemy who can fight you hand-to-hand. Forget about the crisis, we can only become a race captive by powerful force. When we have the courage to find the truth, don't forget the enemies around us who keep spying on us. This is just a humble victory in a humble corner.
