It's worth seeing, but don't expect too much

A blockbuster film, beautiful visual art, impressive. The director tried to combine science fiction and politics, but it was obvious that he failed. The sudden death of Judy Foster made the story easier.

Moreover, the most important thing is that he did not say a better theme-limited resources can not satisfy all people, then, should the rich and the poor be equalized, or the rich and the poor should be differentiated?

I personally think that this kind of discussion based on economic significance is more practical and philosophical, because in the real world, any suitable resources are limited. How to allocate is the ultimate proposition? How to solve the problem of the gap between the rich and the poor? This is of broad significance in China today, and even the whole world.

Oh, forgot to score. Comprehensive score, C+. In any case, this is a wonderful movie worth seeing in the cinema, if the ticket price does not exceed 35 yuan.

    The story is so-so, Xiao Ma has a good mechanical appearance.

    For a qualified Hollywood commercial action film, director Neil Blomkamp retains his own aesthetic characteristics, and the control of rhythm, background settings and scene details are all first-class technical standards. In the future world, good political themes such as race, the gap between rich and poor, and the smuggling of immigrants will eventually be left with individual heroism and ridiculously idealized endings in the rhythm of Hollywood genre films. Pity. ★★★
