There are no ultimate questions and answers at all

Let's seriously think about whether we wake up every morning with as many things as the hero of the film does. Unfinished work, career development confusion, bosses who don't take them seriously, 30 years of loans owed to banks, and love that's been shattered by reality. When the protagonist wakes up, he finds that there are several bulldozers parked outside waiting to demolish his house, because the government wants to build a highway, and the earth will be destroyed in twelve minutes because of the construction of the multi-dimensional space highway of the Milky Way.

The film is a ridiculous and ridiculous exaggeration. The president of the galaxy is selected by appearance, a robot suffering from depression, an alien lurking on the earth, and two earthlings who survived the destruction of the planet. So they know that in order to get the ultimate answer to the questions about life, universe and everything, they came to the supercomputer Deep Thought after all the hardships. to calculate, and humans are just elements of a program in the rat calculation of the ultimate problem, and Earth 2 is being rebuilt. After being shot by a stance switcher, each individual discovers his true thoughts and meanings.

The whole film is very nonsensical, so it does not need to be measured by common sense. The process is a combination of character performances and pictures, and the technical content of science fiction is not high. Beneath the nonsensical exaggeration and funny, is the discussion of the ultimate question and the ultimate answer. People always hope that there will be a deeper meaning in life, but if there is no such thing, what should we do? The answer is to find a way to make yourself happy!

PS: I really like the robot that suffers from mental depression~~ Very stylish!

    The part of creating the earth is very imaginative, but the plot is fragmented and illogical. Just an introduction to settings? . . . (Expansion, there are comments that it is mainly a variety of metaphors?). . . Also, many people like that melancholy robot, Marvin~
