The Russians' Insight and Lack of Imagination

It is clearly business and politics, but it happens to be under the guise of fantasy science fiction.
After watching it carefully, I think it's okay, the idea is good, the understanding of advertising and brands is very full, the commercial methods in the film are also brilliant, the actors are very powerful, the acting is good, but the narration and performance are not good, and the screen special effects And the ability to create monster images is very poor (surely the Russians have no imagination), which makes people feel boring and hypnotic.
At first I thought it was a sci-fi film, but looking at its narrative method made me feel like a fantasy animation. The director's ambition was so great that after combining various expression techniques and elements, its suspense and fantasy The effect no longer exists, it is completely different, and it is counterproductive. And the previous narration is really too much, not only too much, but also too slow, there is no sense of rhythm, and it can't keep up with the rhythm behind.
But after reading it carefully, I still feel that it is very meaningful and worth thinking about. If it is just an ordinary viewer who only pursues the special effects and shock of the blockbuster, then it is definitely disappointing and there is no need to watch it.
