Regarding some of the points in the film that may be confusing:
1. The children in wheelchairs in the orphanage interspersed in the film are not the sons of the male protagonist, but the female doctor. There are already several hints in the film: ×The heroine's shoes are the same as those of children, and things that are cherished since childhood have been worn until they grow older. Although there is also a BUG saying that the feet are not too long. ×In the film, there is a shot of the heroine looking at the feet of the heroine when the heroine and the heroine are running, and the heroine's left foot is a little dragged. Then the male protagonist said that the female protagonist was doing well and should go to practice track and field, not knowing whether he intended to compliment or comfort the female protagonist. ×There is a scar on the heroine's back, which should be a scar from the spine surgery, which also implies the heroine's past experience. ×In the last shot, the wheelchair child in the orphanage said: I am not a child, I am Tatiana. I better understand why the director handled this way: he gave many shots in the film to mislead the audience, and suddenly gave a reversal at the end of the film to surprise the audience. Many suspense films have this technique. I am more convinced of this statement than many people say that children are parasitized by the opposite sex. The reason is that although a good suspense film will set you to reverse, it will definitely give you a lot of hints in the process, so that it is reversed. It will make everyone feel suddenly open, as if the previous puzzles have been solved. And if there is no hint of forcing the reversal, it will not surprise the audience. This is also a common technique used in suspense films. It is said that the child was parasitized by aliens and ended up miraculously after leaving the orphanage. There is no hint in the film, not even a word. So I don't think this view holds true. Although this film is not as clever as some films with wonderful plot designs, the director and screenwriter's skills can be seen to be good. Will not make this common sense mistake.
2. About the Virgin Mary. In fact, this movie is much better than the Virgin Mary in the American blockbuster. The heroine is not a Virgin. First of all, there is no problem with the logic of the screenwriter: the first reaction of the heroine after learning of the symbiotic relationship between the hero and the monster is to save the hero, and to save the hero, he must get the person out. The best solution to this incident is to rescue people secretly. When the base personnel find that they can't catch up, everyone is happy. However, the reality is often not so ideal. It is unexpected to be blocked in the rescue process. It has been pushed to a dead end. If you don't kill, you have to be killed. It's not like in other Madonna films who know that more people must sacrifice for morals. Moreover, the purpose of the heroine to save the hero in the film is also normal, not a Virgin. The military does not want to separate the aliens at all. What they hope is that the male protagonist can control the aliens autonomously and become a super weapon. This will always be the common purpose of the military in science fiction films, and the purpose of the evil doctor is always to rule the world... According to common sense, if this thing is really as the military wishes, there will be no peace and more people will die. The reason is simple: when you return to the Stone Age with sufficient modern weapons, no one will be willing to live with them peacefully, and the imbalance of power will eventually lead to resource plunder and enslavement. People who imagine that they have super weapons in their hands and hold people in their arms are still too naive.
Generally speaking, this film is not bad, there is no logical flaw, and there is no perfect heroism and Virgin Mary thought that are often found in American films. Everyone has a private purpose. However, compared with the more mature European and American markets of suspense films, the turn of the film is still too small, and you can basically guess the general plot direction at the beginning. But the film focuses on science fiction, so this point can also be ignored. Maozi's film can be so good.
