But that's about it. Genesis, in the final analysis, is just a poor imitation that only learned the skin but not the essence.
Let's talk about the character first.
Arnold. Arnold is just a robot no matter what, he can't really have feelings. Let's see how God dealt with Rika in the 2nd generation. Arnold can sacrifice himself in order to protect John, but this is only because his program is written in this way, he must obey John's orders, and there are no concepts of loyalty, indomitability, love, life, etc. for his "person". He doesn't kill, simply because John gave him such an order. And the rich and deep emotional impact he brought us is more through the reactions of others:
Mom said, he will not leave, he will not curse, he will not drink alcohol, he will always be by John's side, Of all the people I've met, he's the perfect guy to be John's father.
John said, you promised! We can't be apart!
What about Arnold? He asked what was in your eyes and said: I know now why you cry, but it is something I can never do.
This helpless contrast is the source of the strong emotional impact at the end of the film.
What about this work? Protect my Sarah. Tears in eyes. elder brother! Don't you know how to cry! Who is "your" Sarah?
Sarah. The hot mom in Yi Erli has never experienced any big storms from the beginning, her boyfriend is depressed after a phone call, "I'm just a woman who can't even pay the bills, why is it me?" The character is tough and even paranoid, paranoid to the point of being admitted to a mental hospital, and paranoid to the point of wanting to assassinate the founder of Skynet. A rich, flesh-and-blood man leapt to the page.
In this work, as Kyle said, "it will only order others". The toughness of the character, the performance here, apart from sticking to one's own opinion and reciting a few words in a very slow and modest tone, what else is left?
Kyle. A warrior who grew up in the fire of war is tough, masculine, but never sunny. Deep in the character, there is a temperament of pessimism and despair, but he will not give up his efforts to survive in despair.
What the hell is this little white-faced temperament! Even to say that his little white-faced temperament is too much. Does he have any special character in this Genesis? Do you have it?
John stopped talking. There is nothing in character (is there toughness? Is there hardship? Is there wit? Where did the essence of the second generation go), and the plot is full of loopholes. Say it later.
plot. If nothing else, let me first say that if John becomes Skynet, wouldn't the solution be very simple? It's better not to have him! How could a son threaten or even kill his biological parents before he was born? Doesn't this go against the Terminator's worldview? In a generation, didn't he bring a message to his mother to say, without you, I wouldn't exist? So now he is going to destroy his own existence with his own hands, right?
Then, what is he after he becomes a T-3000? If you're still human, why help build Skynet? If it's Skynet, why save your own parents? It doesn't make sense at all. He himself said that he was neither a human nor a machine. But judging from the piles of pieces and even the pieces that were later beaten to pieces, he was an out-and-out machine. The so-called is neither a human nor a machine, just to find an excuse for this twisted plot: I helped you, I am not a machine, but I also want to help a machine, so I am not a human.
The part that surprised me the most about time travel was Sarah herself telling Kyle that if they fell in love, Kyle would be killed. How did she know! ! ! who told her? Arnold? But didn't Arnold go back to 1973 to save her? Then this future does not exist, how did Arnold know?
Since we are going to shut down Skynet, why go to another day in the future? Why not go a year early? John knows to prepare three years in advance.
In terms of Skynet, since they can send the T-1000, why send the old T-800? Besides, even if an old T-800 like Arnold can recognize the T-1000 (he can even recognize the T-3000), how does he know his weakness of being afraid of acid?
A generation said that Sarah's information was lost in the nuclear war, so the T-800 had to rely on the phone book to find Sarah. He found the address of Sarah's mother, also through Sarah's address book. How about now, send someone directly to kill Sarah's parents? Or the T-1000? And how was that T-1000 defeated? By the T-800's rocket launcher?
The enemy's T-800 was shot through the heart (?), why is it good to drop a drop of liquid from the T-1000 in the eyes? Of course I understand that this paved the way for Arnold's resurrection, but what's the point?
Also, as a key prop in the plot, wasn't Sarah's photo burned in the first generation! ! !
T-5000 ambushed in John's Guards? are you kidding me? Can't the dog bark? Since we can ambush in, wouldn't it be enough to kill John earlier? Why assimilate him?
In the first generation, human beings lived in a place like a slum, and now there is alcohol to drink?
detail.
There will be extra points if the tribute is used well. The tribute in this work is still much stronger than the previous one in 2018, but there are still people who can’t laugh or cry. What does Arnold's thumbs up towards the scope mean? The tragic feeling of the Predator slowly descending in the molten steel was replaced by a comical black humor.
In the clip of T-1000 chasing Kyle, don't say how many chances he has to kill Kyle, is there any need to tell him what day it is today? Is there any need to wait for him to put on his shoes? Isn't this tribute too blunt?
The What the heroine added after Arnold's classic line I'll be back is simply too dramatic.
Ugh. There is not much more to say here. As a brainless fan, while scolding, brushing and brushing n brushing twice; while looking forward to the sequel, at the same time worrying that the sequel will smash the classic signs like this. This kind of complicated mood is by no means a word to describe the deep responsibility of love.
