The film shows the eye-catching technology, the most meaningful seems to be the data storage, call implantation technology based on the human brain and the genetic code reconstruction technology-let me call it that! The former is a device that flashes behind the ears of those elites, and the latter is a medical device in Elysium that can almost cure all diseases. These two magical combinations are completely reasonable from the perspective of development. The data storage device based on the human brain can be regarded as the liberation of the human brain. It is not only safe, but the creativity of the human brain combined with the data analysis and calling ability of computer technology is almost a perfect intelligent system; as for the reconstruction of genetic code, from a certain perspective It can indeed cure all diseases. The human body is actually a system with a soul. Re-cleaning, installation, and updating should not be as exaggerated as in the movie, but it is basically reasonable. So, what is worth considering is what impact will it have on society when these two technologies can be realized at the same time? It is very scary to think about-the data storage and transfer implantation technology based on the human brain can make knowledge a commodity of the wealthy class, so there is the possibility of corresponding monopoly. Just like the problem of the distribution of educational resources that has been discussed now that it is difficult for the poor to get out of the elite because of the lack of knowledge environment for the poor, then in the era when knowledge can be easily imported and used, the elite may really be directly linked to wealth. , You can buy as much knowledge as you have to become an elite, and the elite group can become extremely stable, while the channel for ordinary people to enter the elite group is completely lost. And another genetic code reconstruction technology that can make people almost immortal, and from the physical level, guarantees that elite groups can gain long-term rule... So the bliss world floating above the earth in the movie is possible and necessary. , Completely separate the elite groups that govern and govern from the general public.
Here we can mention a problem that technology changes mankind. From a certain perspective, the nature of human development is driven by science and technology mastered by mankind, but the impact often comes from something that can be called an idea in human nature. The composition of the environment in Elysium can be imagined as the elites and the rich finally obtain the data storage, call implantation technology and genetic code reconstruction technology based on the human brain after huge investment. It is likely that these technologies are only used due to limited resources and other reasons. Because these elite groups have closed up such technologies as their own and used them for governance and management. This is good or bad, because theoretically such a development process is feasible, but people have many perceptual levels, and the so-called wealthy elite is destined to not be monolithic, so there are scenes in this movie-the president and Judifu The power struggle of the Secretary of Defense played by Sturt is, in the final analysis, a struggle of ideas. This eventually led to the system restart plan for the entire Elysium. The only possibility that the world in the film will not come may come from the perceptual elements of people and the conceptual struggle that people cannot eliminate. It is precisely because of the different repeated games and compromises that partly avoid complete social strata. Fragmentation risk. Here I want to say that democracy is a good thing, and the Internet is also a good thing. The former is the system and the latter is technology. Both promote the repeated collision and game of various ideas. If these two good things do not exist, perhaps the world of bliss is true. Will appear, here may be a reference to the dynasty change of the celestial dynasty!
Science fiction films bring reasonable imagination, which may be more meaningful than dazzling visual effects. Some of the grooves or highlights of this movie are the attributes of human beings. Matt Damon, who was equipped with a copy of the mechanical limbs, eventually defeated the villain agent wearing the genuine mechanical limbs, and did not have the human brain data storage call implant technology. Inferior people can also use computer technology to counterattack the bliss space system. This may be the meaning of people. It is because of the differences and uncertainties of people that this world is colorful and not so boring and rigid.
The last thing I want to say is that the acting skills of Matt Damon and Judy Foster are quite outstanding, which makes this seemingly bad movie a lot of extra points. The ending of the movie is the widespread medical improvement of the entire planet-the widespread popularization and civilianization of genetic code reconstruction technology. Regardless of the limitation of resources, the story leads to the emotional side, which is a happy ending, but what happens afterwards? Maybe there is no need to think about it, but it can be seen from the attitude of robots in Elysium that they follow commands after the system restarts-human beings are more or less kidnapped by machines. How to move on is not just a problem in the movie, it seems The present has been touched.
