The meaning of "Satellite" is probably to describe "symbiosis". The film is a bit of the meaning of "Arrival", but the pattern is obviously smaller, and the "motivation" that promotes the development of the plot is simpler. The question of the survival of the "alien symbiote". Keeping the symbiote means sacrificing a living person to feed it, and killing the parasite seems to make the male protagonist die. The choice of the heroine is very important and unreasonable, which is not a good part of this movie.
On the whole, the unsatisfactory places are:
1. The emotional development of the female protagonist and the male protagonist is not obvious; 2. The "sacrifice" of the original project male leader’s "self-sacrifice" reversal is not driven by a strong plot; 3. The overall clues are not very clear, in fact The general initially told the heroine that the "research purpose (separation)" was false. The real purpose was to study how humans in the symbiote can control this living body so that it can be used as a weapon. This led to a series of strong "resistances" by the heroine. "behavior. But the expression of the film can easily be understood as a drama "saint bitch saves the beloved man", which is wrong.
The third point above is actually the most prominent and ingenious part of the film. In the Cold War era, even if it is an unknown creature, as long as it is controllable and reproducible, it is the "big killer" and the "straw" that overwhelms the opponent. So in the end, the classic combination of space science fiction and thriller aliens was packaged into the research content of a "secret project". After the movie ended, I couldn't help but shudder:
The early development of modern science and medicine was also the period when the Iron Curtain of the Cold War surrounded the world. Scientists have crazy research enthusiasm and nearly zero research taboos. They don’t need to consider the moral bottom line and have strong support from the state. During that time, will we What did you really find? Does an unknown life like "Apollo 18" really exist? Is a plot similar to this film actually performed in history?
In the part of feeding the living people, there is a video recorder recording every picture. Whether there are video tapes with similar images is stored in the warehouse of Russian confidential documents. How many are unknown to us? Even in the United States, how many of you and I know the CIA's infamous "MKUltra Project"?
Even now, every ordinary 24 hours we spend, perhaps, in a certain laboratory on the earth, we are conducting research on the "fourth type of contact", the so-called "urban legends" in history, perhaps It's just the camouflage coat before they are confirmed.
