I really can’t watch genre movies. I want to learn boxing after watching "Cuidi", I want to be a soldier after watching "The Hurt Locker", I want to learn aerospace after watching "The Martian", and I want to learn C language after watching "The Hacker Legion" .
The last time I was shocked by the programmer on the screen was David Finch’s "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo". As we all know, this movie of Vinci is a remake of a Danish film of the same name. Vinci shortened the story. I took one of the paragraphs, and the director of "The Hacker Legion" was the director of the original "Girl with the Dragon Tattoo", so he is good at hacking themes.
In terms of form, it can be summarized inaccurately as the depressive version of "Who Am I: There Is No Absolute Security System" and the hacker version of "Black Swan". Masked videos, split personality, and hallucinations that appear after kowtow are all tried and tested stalks. By the way, after watching "The Hacker Legion", I once again confirmed the screenwriting-centered system of the American TV drama industry. What appears with the title and is not the name of the director, the producer or the producer, but the name of the screenwriter. The American drama industry is more clearly divided than the film industry. The director is only responsible for directing the performance and image style. The direction of the story is the screenwriter's final say. So although it is not as good as "True Detective" in photography, good script and performance are a plus. Turning to the next question, Kerry Fukuyong dared to personally take the shot of "Beasts without Boundaries" is not covered, look at the scene of "True Detective" that is comparable to the movie.
There are a lot of extremely dark elements in the play, cybercrime, sex trafficking, drugs, corruption, theft, murder and so on. But more importantly, it is full of metaphors for politics and reality, as well as extreme loneliness that individuals cannot find identity in society. The series constantly emphasizes that Evil Crop, which monopolizes everything, and the fucking society that has been simplified into Fsociety, ubiquitously embodies the lies of power and monopolistic institutions that also exist in real life, the incompetence and conspiracy of the government, under the beautiful vision Dirty, the reality that ordinary people do not realize that their lives are being controlled and entrapped. The illegal child molestation websites, extramarital affairs, and gun trade that Elliot revealed are just the darkest aspect of human nature.
So it has once again subverted the programmer. No longer as dialectically and critically inspirational like Vinci's "Social Network", no longer with the dark humor and hidden cuteness like "Who Am I: No Absolute Security System". It combines reality and virtuality forcibly, but with a strong sense of tearing, the nature of the code farmer's own work represents secrets and concealment, and represents the most valuable wealth of human society after the technological revolution-information and information channels. And the code farmer’s life state (of course, the show is more extreme in this play) means that he is at the top of this information chain, but at the same time this is also the closest boundary between reality and the virtual world, so his mental state is also Always on the verge of collapse.
It can be said to be the best American drama I have watched in the first quarter of 2016. It’s a pity that every actress who appears in the show has an urgent acting skills, every single actress, especially the heroine, the sentence I don’t want to break up with you and the two who went to talk to Colby to negotiate terms. Duan, I'm very hairy when I see it, it turns out that there are flat and thin Madonna characters in American TV dramas. The failure of portraying female characters and the mistakes in casting roles make the male characters in the play look more brilliant. It is precisely here that I have no feeling for Dad. The wonderful thing is the few supporting characters: playing in small languages, pretending to be forced, for The upper ranks are unscrupulous, like Tyrell, the blue-eyed technical director who looks close to his wife in "Gone girl"; the CTO who tastes famous wines, wears watches, and switches between gentlemen and poisonous demons at will. As for the protagonist, he is simply the best aggregator of social fears and psychological problems I have ever seen on a small screen. Rami Malek has a highly recognizable appearance of people of color. His eyes are naturally white and more black and less, giving his eyes a natural dullness and confusion. This nerd's standard expression is very suitable for a social person. The extreme guest of obstacles, his own big eye bags and dark circles, and a thin body shape, are also what a drug addict with double jobs, insomnia, staying up all night, living alone, and severe anxiety disorder should have. His tone of voice is always extremely unnatural when communicating with others. Even when threatening others, the connection between syllables and the transfer of topics are very blunt, but his monologue is lazy and smooth, which is a perennial autism. , The typical performance of a lonely person-very good at communicating with oneself, but don't know how to get along with other human beings. There is always a very obvious tension in Elliot's eyes, which is true for everyone. The first reaction after his withdrawal reaction faded was not to find medicine, but I'm alone. He is good at analyzing and exposing people's hidden facts, but he does not get along with him more smoothly because he knows more about a person, the repulsion between people, the loneliness and abandonment of a person in human society Sense, it exists outside the network, it cannot be cracked, it cannot be formatted. Precisely because he is invincible in computer technology, he is even more insecure and at a loss in real life. Even from the people he has hacked, it can be seen that this kind of loneliness and isolation is grouped.
What's awesome is that with such a dark and heavy tone and such a repressive character, the plot has not been slowed down. The ten episodes are very compact, so you can watch it all in one go. There are roughly two main lines in the whole drama. One is the process of hackers trying to take down E Crop, and the other is the process of the heroine trying to dig the truth and restore justice. There are also spur lines that are exciting enough but do not separate the theme, such as and The confrontation of gangs, such as companies under the struggle for power and interests, the sinister hearts of the workplace, and the crimes in interpersonal relationships. Speaking of this, it reminds me of "London Spy". Although I am a big fan of Ben･Wishaw and Charlotte･lamplin, as a single-line spy drama, it really disappoints, not only the rhythm is slow. , The theme is vague, and the relationship between the characters and the lack of script support makes all the big coffees appear extremely embarrassed. Too much emotional rendering cuts the story itself into pieces. After all, this is a TV series, no matter how hard the movie is. In the two hours, the TV series magnified these too much. The five episodes and five hours of memorizing killings were a bit hard to compliment.
According to the current situation, "The Hacker Legion" will definitely have a next season. I really hope to change the heroine. The acting is really bad, and her drama points are very unconvincing positive energy and spare tires. However, it is rare to change roles, so my suggestion is to shift the focus, reduce the role of the heroine, cut off the love line with Elliot, and focus on how to deal with social chaos and moral crisis after the army destroys the power. .
A few last words. At that time, the drama was named three names in Golden Globe. The best drama now seems to be well deserved, but after watching it, I feel that the best actor should not be awarded, and should be given to the best male. Lord, it's a pity that Rami's opponent is "Mad Men". Rami played really well, and he deserves to be a person who has been trained by the great God PTA. Let’s just talk about a burst of acting. At the end of the sixth episode, Elliot opened the trunk and saw Shayla’s body. He was shocked at first, then red eyes and sad, but he was a socially horrified facial paralysis programmer and couldn’t scream. He cried so much that he couldn't even frown his brows, and he had kissed this girl who died because of him, he was sad, he wanted to touch her, but he was scared again. These complexities and pains don't even need one more line or look in Rami's body. Fingers, turning around, he behaves very well, covering all his sorrow and insignificance, his good and evil with a hood. Before "The Hacker Legion", my impression of Rami Malek was completely fixed in "A Wonderful Night at the Museum", the prince of Egypt showing abs. Although some people think he is not handsome, at least I think his appearance is quite good. This time, his performance in the drama is amazing and sexy, not only because he is a computer genius, smart is new sexy, but also because of his danger and vulnerability, which also gives the actor a unique attraction. So I got a new male god again.
In the end, it is the old way, ending with a personal feeling.
In this world, there are people who meet and love each other. The beautiful people shine on each other. The broken people are stunned. The mobs are united. We are always forgotten, left behind and eliminated. We are alone in a complicated society, watching people divide and recombine. Coming and going, we wear armor with a knife in our heart, and be our own gods in the dark.
This loneliness and incomprehension, we are destined to walk alone, born like this, this is the inevitability of being human.
This loneliness is a protective color, a city wall, a bunker, and a safe haven for me.
