【Movie】15024[5.17] "Super Chappie"

To be sure, Neil Blomkamp must have some kind of perversion, from "District 9" to none of these movies is about the combination of humans and other organisms, and whether it is man-made or natural, Blow Mkamp is very keen to transfer the soul into another container, and it is not difficult to understand that he is the fan of "Attack in the Shell".

If Blomkamp's three feature films are to be sorted, after "District 9", this film is a prequel to "Elysium", which tells the gradual decline of the rules of force in human society. Many artificial intelligence movies like Luo's "Three Laws" to talk about things, and the public opinion is also inseparable from this tune, but as long as you pay attention to it, you can find that Blomkamp has never followed the "Three Laws". , its organism has been a tool endowed with the power to kill from the very beginning, and it is not a "human" who is relatively controllable by moral constraints, but a cold hard disk that uses 1 and 0 for game selection. Unlike "Enemies of the Machine", Blomkamp does not discuss how AI miraculously bypasses the logical constraints set by the designer on it, which is the most philosophical question worth thinking about, and directly shows what happens after AI jumps out of the rules. Out of control scene, this decision can only be an ordinary sci-fi film, and it does not touch the root of the problem at all. This one also decided that, compared with Sonny, Chappie can only be a bunch of superficial and childish iron.

Let’s not discuss how the werewolf’s character setting is stupid and ridiculous. Blomkamp’s character setting has always been very extreme, which has been discussed in “Elysium” (see [Movie] No. 13059 for details. ), I’m not used to it, the important thing is that the world he sets is always a society with a broken system, which makes me the most uncomfortable. According to the development trend of human civilization in a peaceful era, the system should be improved step by step instead of becoming more and more chaotic. How can a society full of robbery, kidnapping, and drugs give birth to a high-tech multinational AI manufacturing listed company? After the company's top development engineer was kidnapped, the first thing to do was not to call the police, but to study how to teach children together with the kidnappers. What about social education? Is it a question of IQ? Even a medium-sized bank in the Tian Dynasty in the third world has to pay for a taxi fee of dozens of mosquitoes from the counter to the sub-branch, to accounting, to human resources, to operating the N-level sign-in. The unique USB key in the entire universe in the movie is actually a single People can be taken out of the company by pressing a password and left unattended for a few days. With the secret key, two engineers can command the company's tens of billions of property without authorization. , what is the internal control?

Maybe the director doesn't read enough books, and it's not a problem to write about a movie like "The Ninth District" that seems to go to another planet completely, but once you return to a civilized society, please don't treat Biandu as a slum without the law of kings.

None of them are novel themes, and there are stories that have been repeated by countless people. Among them are the sloppy pictures that I don't like the most, so I can't praise them well. It's only because of "Reunion" and "Super 7". , I've always been more inclined to watch the slightly warmer Chappie because I'm not a big fan.

It is acceptable, conservatively recommended, and not a collection.

    I give three and a half stars. Much better than "Elysium", the story is not so empty. Science fiction fans may calculate the logic and details of some settings, and ordinary audiences can see it completely. The front is a little loose and sensational, and the last part is great, both enjoyable and innovative! A bit of Quentin's taste, it can be called the gangster version of "Artificial Intelligence". Blomkamp is going to create the rhythm of the "Johannesburg Trilogy"!

    The pseudo-documentary at the beginning, some staggering Blomkamp-style pictures, are like another form of D9, but far less brilliant: the part involving AI is shallow, but in fact it is still a confrontation of different positions, full of But I like it, because it shows that if the characters are well-made, the flaws in the story are not a big deal, and Sharlto Copley's motion capture and voice acting are too much.
