The scene is magnificent and beautiful, the desert is as spectacular as Star Wars, and the dreamlike wedding is as beautiful as Final Fantasy. The male protagonist, to be precise, "travels" to Mars, which caters to the popularity of Japanese girl manga in the 1980s and the current Chinese Qing dress. The growth process of the male protagonist is the classic line of American Super Hero.
It's a typical Hollywood chowder.
——Just as I was about to draw conclusions like this, I suddenly heard that the film was adapted from a novel, which was written in 1917.
In an instant, I was in awe of the author: At that time, the small broken glider of the Wright brothers had just crossed the blue sky, and the author's idea of a large flying warship in the book was so brilliant. At that time, there were few excellent works of fantasy novels, and the author's imagination of different races and exotic technologies was so unconventional. It is not a chowder, nor is it plagiarism, it is the grandfather of all the above-mentioned masterpieces of later generations!
It is a pity that my respect for this novel does not improve my experience of watching the film. In fact, no matter how old-fashioned the plot, you can tell wonderful stories, such as Ironman and Dark Knight-this film obviously does not have this ability. The explanations of several key plots in the film are too simple and rude (for example, Sola's identity...it's too rude for me to take it off--b), resulting in the character image not being full. When I heard that the director of the film and Wall E were the same, I was shocked at the time.
The beginning of the film gave me a lot of surprises and expectations when the protagonist first arrived on Mars, and the suspense at the end also refreshed me. It's not ugly, it's still ugly, but I won't recommend it to friends.
PS (Spoiler):
After the "brainwashing" of masterpieces like Nausicaa and Avatar, which advocated that "life is precious", I couldn't bear to see the heroic hero "slaying" Thrarks. Some people praise this scene of alternate processing of tragic and magnificent scenes...Maybe it is indeed one of the highlights of the film from the perspective of film aesthetics, but I really look at it both disgusting and sad:(
