Beibei's Movie World: http://blog.sina.com.cn/bblovesmovies
If it wasn't for Johnny Depp, I probably wouldn't watch this movie, because it's really hard to shoot artificial intelligence or high-tech movies There are too many, but not many can be brilliant. As for this film, my preconceived impression is that it is similar to Tom's "Lost in the War" some time ago, and the recently released "Edge of Tomorrow", which is similar to the hero's look back after fighting and killing in the future world. But after watching the movie, I felt that this film actually has a certain connotation, because I heard a saying: Some screenwriters in Hollywood are highly educated and have or are still engaged in scientific research, so they put their own understanding of high technology and false impressions Zooming into the film industry, with a sense of social responsibility, let human beings realize the danger and anxiety that their actions may bring to the earth in the future, so as to play a vigilant role. For such screenwriters, directors, and producers who are willing to pay for the ecological and environmental protection responsibility, as well as actors who are willing to accept even if they know that they are not blockbusters, I think they should all praise.
The director of this film was originally a photographer, so the film does not stimulate the eye with a psychedelic and rapid visual impact. On the contrary, the film has a lot of close-up shots that are infinitely slowed down, such as the super slow drip of a drop of water. To express natural life, for example, the process of nanotechnology to reorganize cells and regenerate objects uses freeze-frame pictures like high-definition photos. People who like it feel very shocking, and people who don't like it feel procrastinating.
Second, the film is a re-discussion of the age-old problem of artificial intelligence. Even if Johnny Depp dies, his thinking can be passed to the computer program to help store it through technology, then the computer will have his thinking and wisdom. The film does not clearly explain whether the intelligence of computers has surpassed that of human beings, but is just borrowing the name of Johnny Depp to try to rule human beings; or whether Johnny Depp's inherent ambition is driving him to become the god of human beings , I prefer the latter. Because I don't think machines can replace human emotions. So, when Johnny Depp discovered his ability to manipulate human life, to reorganize cells, to build everything, he already regarded himself as the savior of mankind, and he hoped for more. In fact, as early as the beginning of the film, when Johnny Depp claimed to be God in a speech, he had already laid the groundwork for the film. He hoped that he could help people, but he also hoped that he could control people.
So, in fact, this film just borrows high-tech to convey the self-inflation of the dictator. When technology develops to a certain level, it is really a terrible thing if it is used by some capable but selfish scientists. Human beings have both beautiful and dangerous abilities. How to avoid this kind of phenomenon is not only in movies. If we don’t pay attention, what happens in these movies may happen to us one day.
