A good idea alone is not enough to hold up a two-hour movie

It is another science fiction film whose actual level is far below expectations. A good idea alone is not enough to hold up a two-hour movie. In order to make up the time, the screenwriter and the director also worked hard, with close-ups everywhere ➕ the background is blurred, and the viewing effect is very bad. After the camera is turned, the 2D movie will make me feel sick. The structure is too small to form a persuasive point of view, and the handling of other countries and regions is simple and rude, or even purely unilateral. Part of the plot setting, such as the explosion incident, has very weak logic, and there is no reasonable explanation at all. The final reversal is to laugh me to death, using the grandmother's paradox as a gimmick, can I say that this is a fraud? Give me back two hours!

    I haven't had time to forget it. When I understand it, I will meet you again seriously and walk into the known future without hesitation. Maybe it's just because of what you said at the beginning - I am the brightest star in your night sky!

    I don't know if it is the communication that human beings have imagined, or whether this is just the imagination of Lao Mei after reading Chinese freehand calligraphy. Like the last call, you can't even speak a quarter of human language, and you say it is a linguist.

Arrival quotes

  • Louise Banks: Trust me, you can, uh, understand communication and still end up single.

  • Louise Banks: I forgot how good it felt to be held by you.
