Rough to the realm of cult

This 1990 sci-fi action film starring Schwarzenegger is said to be adapted from a well-known science fiction novel. The theme is that memory is unreliable, the contradiction between memory and reality brings people confusion, and the basis for people’s self-identification is memory Or what I saw and heard at the moment.

Obviously, the film has basically adapted the essence without a trace. Just because of its roughness, it can be included in the category of cult today, or it was deliberately followed by the cult route. In an era when humans can embed memories for virtual travel and establish magnificent colonies on Mars, people who think that postmodern designs are actually ugly taxis run on the streets, and people live in shapes and interiors that are not as good as 21 In the house at the beginning of the century, with the crude display screen and the stupid pistol, Schwarzenegger's job turned out to be a concrete construction worker working in the 20th century. The colony air shield was not bulletproof, which caused the main casualties of the film.

Schwarzenegger's acting skills can be said to be close to no acting skills, and the clumsy fight reveals a sense of humor. One of the heroines is actually Sharon Stone, and she is indeed only one decent film. Supporting the whole film is the suspense of the air spring, and the only interesting bridge section subway security check in this film. In addition, there are no lack of disgusting shots, especially the shots that suffocate people's eyeballs in a vacuum.

In short, it is all kinds of rough. Comparing the 1990 movies "Human Ghosts Are Not Over" and "Hunting Red October" shows that the age is not an excuse.

    Looking back on the original version, whether it is suspense or action, sci-fi setting or humorous cells, clear storyline and character relationships and conflicts, it is much stronger than the new version. As a 1990 movie, it is really good, and the concept of many scenes was innovative at that time, and I have to add another star.
