This first-class technological special effects production, but abandoning the industry’s established subject line (neither a pure science fiction nor an action movie) is the first film of director Kike Maíllo. In terms of the novelty and difficulty of its story setting, as well as the level of completion, it is completely There is no need to criticize the so-called flaws in his narrative. The Spaniard may not know what the three laws of robots are, but he wrote down the main elements that can be aggregated into a movie on this test paper: the suspense buried in the title, the beautiful and uniform picture, the protagonist is vivid and restrained As for the performance of the film, as for the too monotonous and plain narrative commented by many fans, it actually complements the emotional tone of the whole film. For the little girl’s simple and smart eyes, innocent and self-willed personality, confession of the mistakes committed, and the tears of nostalgia for the world full of complex human nature at the end of the movie, if we need to use multiple lines to advance, time line staggered organization, big turning point and big scheduling To achieve this, even if you dig deep into the character’s emotions to speed up the development of the plot or enrich the depth of the story, or even add the popular skills of flashback when eva is crying, it is inadequate and very ridiculous. It seems that the Spaniard is very clear about what he is going to do, and he has done very satisfactorily, especially in the most sensational part by no means lose to the French.
I really want to share with you some thoughts that are triggered by several plots of the film reflecting on human weaknesses. Of course, the director’s intention to put too much ink here is correct, or the things I want to talk about are digressions. Eva and the protagonist’s robot (called bare metal here, meaning a computer without a system installed) and the housekeeping robot SI-7 Max are actually the carriers of human emotions. In the film, they are actually The flaws of human nature are engraved from the side.
These defects, which can be summed up as ignorance and greed, are rooted in the original sin deep in our souls, so that we are so accustomed to turning a blind eye that it is difficult to perceive and detect in the film. Only when film critics commented that the film did not rise to the philosophical level. The protagonist and talented engineer Alex, who pursues to create an outstandingly interesting emotional robot, is the biggest source of this ignorance and greed in the film. He wishfully relied on technological means to produce robots that meet the excellent quality of human beings, but failed to recognize that every moving characteristic of human beings is always accompanied by others. In other cases, it may be transformed into similarities (human beings in the eyes of artificial robots) and the outside world. harm. A "fun" and beloved little girl, Eva, killed her mother when she was excited; the bare metal that fits Eva's "fun" characteristics even almost killed Alex himself who made it. This transformation is also reversed. The protagonist may realize this. Max was lowered his emotional level because he was not used to getting along with the Doraemon. Later, he was raised because of Max’s concern, which gave him a warm hug. (Emotional level is an indicator of the degree of emotional expansion. Human beings are ridiculous but great. Use this switch to control the robot to eliminate boredom, and use it to give yourself hypocritical care). How many centuries have passed since people discovered this ancient dialectic method, but it is specific to all aspects of human life. How many people can restrain their greed?
Chocolate contains 30% fat, but the silly girls who talk about weight loss every day stubbornly believe in advertising and brick homes to eat healthy sweets, and most of them don’t even bother to find an excuse when they lift chocolate. , Watching this film, they should understand the director’s words: "You are fat, you are stupid!"
Of course, there are more meaningful clips in this film, such as Alex’s different attitudes towards Eva and bare metal (this is what The director deliberately wants to show the audience), topics between humans and robots, clones and other humanoids, as well as family ethics, and so on. Summarize and comprehensively, but isn't this the charm of film as the seventh art?
