Edge of Tomorrow hasn't written a movie review by himself for many years, so feel free to say a few words today. I watched Tom Cruise's recent best movies a few days ago. I went to see it with my mother. After watching it for a while, I felt speechless, and I felt quite a lot. The best sci-fi movies that I watched by mistake in the theater before are Cloud Atlas and Oblivion. I feel that this time I watched it too right. . . General evaluation: The story is logical and hierarchical, the narration is very clear, the editing is very refined, the character performance is also in place, the screen is well-made and rigorous, and the story behind the story is thought-provoking. Let's talk about the actors first: 1. Brother Tom is already fifty, and he still feels really not old, and really handsome! Although it started with "High Aspirations" and created the image of the handsome national guy, and later became popular in the Mission Impossible series, in fact, I have always liked some of his other more delicate inner performances, such as the stall in "Rain Man" The younger brother of the mentally retarded brother, the betrayed sports agent in "Mr. Sweetheart", and the neurotic speaker in "Magnolia" are all unforgettable characters. During the thirty years of riding in Hollywood, he has proven time and time again that he is indeed the undisputed top-tier actor in Hollywood with his appearance, enthusiasm for acting, and proficiency in constantly improving acting skills. And in "Edge of Tomorrow", he also successfully portrayed how a handsome deserter can grow into a brave fighter with perseverance and a spirit of sacrifice. In such a two-hour film, the characterization of this character is successful. At the beginning of the film, his cowardice and fear of death, his weakness and helplessness, his ignorance, and then gradually awakening, the sense of mission possessed, and the courage after frustration step by step is bursting, until the single-handedly go to the meeting and lead the team to a decisive battle. This step by step is very convincing of "this is what it should be". Every look and body language in his eyes is what William Cage, the protagonist of this story, meant. 2. I have to mention that it must be boldly reminded that the heroine Emily Blunt, she is really beautiful, is there? ? Although she is in The Devil Wears The female number three or four in Prada, they seem to be very fashionable. Even in recent years, there have been female number one performances in "The Ring Messenger", but they didn't leave any impression on me. On the contrary, in this kind of hard science fiction film, which emphasizes the bloody intense scenes and the masculine breath of the big production, it shows her unusual beauty, that tight figure, firm eyes and delicately carved faces. (Especially the side face), that cool energy to clean up Alien, a metallic breath of a heroine is permeating, is there any. . . I have been silently sighing in the process of watching the movie: I haven't seen such a beautiful hero in a movie for a long time, is there any? . . The image of a strong, courageous, beautiful and indomitable woman is not only the goddess of men, but also the role model of women. Secondly, I want to talk about the story itself, which is adapted from the 2004 young Japanese novel "Reincarnation of Killing" (the Japanese manga version is now available on the Internet). The American version of the movie has undergone major changes on the basis of the original, but the story is still compact and interesting and logically rigorous. A story that repeats thousands of deaths in a single day, or unfolds it without repetition and does not bore the audience. The screenwriter Skill can be seen. (Digression: In recent years, I still feel that the story itself is brilliant enough with cloud pictures and attacking giants.) In a cruel battle of life and death, a rookie rushed to the street in less than ten minutes, but it was unexpected. Get the ability to control time due to the blood of alien species, and continue to restart today, and give you the opportunity to exercise your own abilities, design escape routes and turn defensive into offensive strategies. . . Oh, this kind of story is wonderful, but it really should not be easy to shoot, but the omnipotent American Hollywood has done it again, succinctly speaking of a seemingly complicated story, which cannot but be praised as an ability that is not easy to obtain. And from this, the charm of humor that is hard to be ignored and forgotten (even dark humor, okay) is extended in the set steps of repeating the same day. Think of it this way, like Iron Man, the classic Marvel series that shocked me as soon as they came out, are also filled with wonderful stories with a strong taste of humor, which will make you feel aftertaste. Going back to this film, since the hero controls the ability to restart today, after so many repetitions, it is not surprising that he can insight into the words and actions of others and "foresee" the next move. I am deeply impressed by the full jokes. They are listed in chronological order. For example, when doing push-ups, they turned sideways over the truck tires and escaped (the first time they were directly crushed by the wheels, unsuccessful); went to the heroine to explain the story of self-rebirth. , Began physical training against the enemy, countless times (yes, countless times!) were injured and died (or was impatiently shot directly by the heroine); when I went to the general to get the enemy’s equipment, I had more than one direct attack because of ineffective communication The general wounded to seize items, during which there were a few surprises due to the general's unexpected cooperation. Ha ha! There are many interesting details, and I believe that friends who have seen it will certainly smile at that moment. Finally, I want to talk about some feelings behind the story: 1. The cruelty of war and the difficulty of the protagonist to make a living. As in the past, the interstellar war, the disparity between the military forces of the enemy and the enemy, and the bloody and brutal enemy attacks are dazzlingly presented through beautiful CG production. Then the living humans may be dead before they even take the first step after landing. , For example, the fat man who had just landed for a second or two was still shouting something, and the fighter that was hit had fallen on him. What is very impressive is the difficult survival process of the hero and heroine in the beach landing battle. There are countless times when they die. The timing, location and attack strategy of the enemy's appearance are really calculated countless times in advance, but the final scene is that the heroine appears. Beautiful lifeless face. . Seeing this, I really feel that they are too difficult and too difficult. To leave the beach and go to the dam alive with the power of two people, this simplest process is really too difficult for both of them. . . But in the end, they managed to get past this step. I really think they were lucky. Yes, it was just good enough! And this is only the first step. 2. Human stupidity and ignorance and authority paranoia and weakness. In fact, from the beginning of the story, you can already understand that this is another typical American personal heroism movie. I didn’t understand it before, why Americans put so much emphasis on personal heroism and paranoid personal ideals, beliefs and power. In fact, think of it this way. Personal heroes are the stories of individual elites against authority and the majority. Sometimes the truth may indeed be in the hands of a few people, and these few people can only practice or test him through fierce confrontation. The truth she knows. Our film Zili is telling such a story. No matter how the protagonist communicates with his superiors, he is still unable to gain trust and ask for help, so he can only survive by himself. Just imagine, if the coalition general believed their story and helped them implement this plan, how much energy and resources should be used in the correct confrontation strategy. . . (Interruption: It reminds me that this is in stark contrast to the government power of S.H.I.E.L.D.in The Avengers.) Even if it’s just a try, what does it matter, but the idiots of authority are so paranoid and terrible, so I dominate. There should only be failure. . . 3. Full of human brilliance and warmth. Since it is individual heroism, it is commendable that the heroes and heroines sacrifice the ego and fulfill the spirit of mankind. Here I want to specifically talk about the original cowardly male protagonist, who is really a rookie, but was inadvertently forced to experience countless deaths. Just thinking about the pain of injury and/or death is enough. . . At the end of the helicopter, the man made tea and added sugar packs to the woman. There was a little warmth between the woman and the place (ps: here, the director's rhythm is really well grasped, or it may be the oriental in the original novel. Humanistic feelings), people really feel soft. It suddenly became clear that it was not the first time they came there like this. Therefore, afterwards, the man resolutely alone, he chose not to go to the dam with the heroine to look for aliens, and his dedication is even more admirable. Unconsciously, some of the feelings came out with the memories, but it should not be all of them, but I seem to be able to only speak here. Returning to my own life, I will think: In fact, a person, no matter what the situation, always has the right to choose himself. Like our protagonist, even if he has the ability to regenerate, he can continue to choose to escape and continue to die within ten minutes, but slowly he chooses to become stronger and more courageous to face his own difficulties and focus on Want to change the destiny of self and even mankind. I have to say that such characterization is also the author's affirmative expectation and useful discussion on the possibility and growth of human beings. After all, the cowardly and fearful self may no longer be so afraid and cowardly after experiencing some things. The same is true for children and adults. It is for remembering. . . .
