First of all, I have to say that there is a gap between the film and the expectations. Of course, this is related to my personal factors. I unfortunately watched two unspoiled good reviews before watching the film. The expectation of the film was so high that I have been waiting for "Super 8" after watching more than half of the film. It debuts

as the fans like spoilers I will need to remind you that "super 8" is a play that sets 8mm camera! Don't wait for what super weapons don't have at all! Don't wait for any special effects scenes, don't expect all majestic visual effects! Even after the aliens appeared, I couldn't see the true meaning of it for a while.

What's so good about this film? I think it should be the subject matter.
Film critics love to tap the deep value behind the film. There is no doubt that this film is good because of its purpose. The clarity and clarity is not so obvious that ordinary fans can discover the highlights from the seemingly implicit plot and dialogue. Grasp the main theme and get the greatest respect. This lovely shooting technique is fundamentally different from "Source Code" and "Inception". But it is also because the theme is "too" that the original mystery of the film is greatly reduced. My suspense when watching the film was even about what alien creatures look like. The

film did not have a strong emotional impact but at the end it passed the little boy and The dialogue of alien creatures sublimated in an instant. As the boy let go and let the mother’s relics drift away with gravity, the theme image of “let go” was shown concretely in the

film. There was another point in the film that impressed me deeply, that is, the children’s interest in shooting their own movies. Perseverance and professional The work of the protagonist in the film is to be responsible for the makeup of the actors. A group of children secretly drove to the train station at night and used an 8mm camera to tell their dreams. This was enough to make me jealous of what I was doing when I was young. Drooling at the cartoon...

the "Easter egg" after the film is the most "beneficial" since I have watched so many movies. It not only extends the plot, but more importantly, it connects with some seemingly nonsensical plots in the feature film. making the original story to explain the doubts disappear and reasonable explanation
that makes the film look more like a movie set with another film's approach is too high and clear
