The Queen of Princess Life - About "Jupiter Ascending"

Vaughn 2022-03-21 09:01:36

It was the day before I became a woman once a year. Under the instigation of Baidu Nuomi and Samsung mobile phone, my friend invited me to watch a movie - "Super Marines"; under the hindrance of Baidu Nuomi and Samsung mobile phone, the ticket purchase failed. , and we finally bravely accepted this sad fact half an hour after the movie was shown; at this time another base friend bravely took out her Samsung mobile phone - don't be surprised, we are three people - click on Baidu Nuomi, I said, "Let's watch the movies of the filthy driver sisters and brothers, they have filmed "The Matrix"!" So, two hours later, with popcorn and bread in our arms, we finally made it to Xinghui's screen, waiting expectantly with the start of the ad.
After watching the whole movie, I felt that it was "The Matrix" and "Cloud Atlas". From the Wachowski brothers to the Wachowski siblings, it really is more and more reluctant to kill women. Think of Trinity in "The Matrix", saying that death is death; the female reporter in "Cloud Atlas" , primitive people, female aliens in the high-tech group, each of them lived to the end; by this drama, they were already reluctant to let the heroine suffer, they said, "You have to believe that the person you love will become Angel, spread your wings to protect you" - yes, in fact, Guangliang has written the outline for this film a long time ago.
However, for a sci-fi movie, as long as the most basic sci-fi background can be established and the logic can be self-consistent, the movie will succeed more than half-recommend "Previous Destination", the ordinary background of this movie is Greek mythology , Oedipus kills his mother, "Oedipus complex", "Murdering father and marrying mother"; good science fiction works can transform this frame into a science fiction color, such as explaining details, this film uses the mouth of little freckles to make it clear: "We It is the origin of many myths." After the plot pushes, let everyone know that the Queen's death was his (the Queen's eldest son), and the first three sons want to marry the Queen, so I don't need to say more, right? Open a brain hole, in fact, this movie explains the relationship between engineers and humans that "Prometheus" did not explain to the end - that is, because of this, I prefer "Jupiter Ascending". Science fiction works must establish the most basic science fiction background.
As for the grandeur of the scene, this is only a factor that determines how high the box office can be in the end. For example, the "Transformers" series that sells copies, Shifang said before that "selling copies has created a new type of porn - machine porn." I object. , good sci-fi movies are all porn. It is to make you hilarious, then aftertaste, and then rise to thinking about the whole human being and the ultimate meaning of the universe; and, in the future, you will still want to watch, when the hippies smoked marijuana and watched "2001 Space Odyssey" over and over again, why is this? Because it's cool.
There are many other sci-fi details in this movie, the most important of which is "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy". Regarding the fact that the earth is customized and has a certain role, this is the basic sci-fi background of the book "Galaxy". In "Galaxy", it is the mouse who customized the earth, and the two closest secretaries of the queen's sons, a man and a woman, all look very much like mice, but the former is realistic and the latter is Disney. From that moment on, I saw Her Majesty the Queen standing in front of the tall counter with the lawyer, facing a huge and complicated bureaucracy and complicated procedures, and it was not surprising at all. This is the classic scene of "Galaxy", it made me laugh.
In addition, the chief swordsmen who almost killed the Queen, yes, those hairless creatures with feet and hands that look the same as hands, there are such a family of aliens in the Miles series - which one is it? I forgot - the description in that novel was about four hands playing a musical instrument, they were so fragile they could only survive in anti-gravity balls - anti-gravity balls or something, I don't think about this movie More to say.
Channing Tatum's shields are found in many sci-fi works. This is a frequent visitor in sci-fi works. The one that appeared earlier in my impression was in "Base" - "Base" itself was designed with reference to the history of the rise and fall of the Roman Empire. Frame-in, I thought there could be something in this movie that can protect the entire spaceship, but it didn't appear, which is a bit of a pity.
Mila Kunis with super-sized eyes got me on the scene as soon as she came on - not that she was bad, but I liked that fluffy teddy bear so much, too, and then the super loyal dog Channing Tatum is so unobtrusive - this girl is meant to be with faithful and lovable animals. I never thought that small freckles were my favorite. Why do I feel heartache when he frowns here? buy buy buy! Pei Doona on a flying motorcycle and his fighting team are the basic temperament of the characters in "The Matrix". I just said to my friend, "He will die in a while", and in the next scene, he will cover up and retire. . . No extra drama at all. . .
This movie is beautiful and a good sci-fi movie. I like it far better than "Interstellar", "Gravity" and the like. The director who can make a good sci-fi movie is definitely not a director full of literature and art, because the requirements of a sci-fi movie are simple and rude , But the details are serious, just like a brave bullfighter wearing a bullfight suit embroidered with thousands of beads, those are just thousands of stars in the Milky Way; and what really breeds life is the vast universe, the strength of the bullfighter, invisible. It is everything.
The only regret is only one point: shouldn't the nasty driver make a movie that can smash people's three views? !
