One star for Scarlett, one star for Kuze, one star for visual effects

I haven't read the original book, it turned out to be an adaptation of a Japanese anime, and the whole process is set in Japan. I was familiar with the black widow's medium and long curly hair, changed it to a very Japanese girl's hairstyle, and was called a major (in an instant when I crossed into the anti-Japanese drama), I was a little uncomfortable at first, but it's good to watch more. Scarlett is too expressive in the action scene, but a few clothes are average, and they look better when they are not worn. Every time she appears after stealth, there is a sense of surprise. . .

Scarlett is really a rare actress in a commercial action blockbuster who can hold the audience. Her actions are sexy and energetic, her aura is cold and powerful, and her warmth after the gradual awakening of her body is also displayed just right.

The little brother who played Kuze also made my eyes shine. He was sick, decadent, delicate, pale, dark, and very sincere. In an instant, I was convinced that what he said was the truth. Before he died, he was lying with Scarlett, two broken bodies, the picture was a beautiful match. I once thought that they would have a kiss after recalling the past, but unfortunately the villain didn't give them time to get along well.

The visuals are gorgeous. Human organs can be transplanted and transformed, but there are not a few normal people and all kinds of robots in the film. The phenomenon of suddenly taking off their eyes like glasses really shocked me. Every frame of the exterior scene has taken great care. Against the urban background dominated by gray and blue, interspersed with strong colors with high saturation, the perfect fusion of cold and warm tones is both realistic and colorful. Imagine if one day With the development of technology, cities have really become like this, um, it's pretty cool.

Sadly, the storyline is a bit clichéd. The evil technology company kills innocent humans indiscriminately and transforms it into a tool that completely obeys itself, and then the tool discovers the secret about its own background when it performs its task, which awakens its previous memory. I guessed the main storyline from the beginning, and the progress was not unexpected, and it was simple and straightforward. The nine departments of the public security, the direct leader of the major, and his companion Bart and others were completely just. Knowing the truth, they broke off cooperation with the black company. It is quite acceptable to finish it hastily without digging a complicated big pit.

If you look at it purely as a science fiction movie, it is still qualified.

    Michael Pitt and the goddess are such a good match...... When two broken bodies lie together, the picture is so beautiful! Michael's paleness, femininity, decadence, brittleness, sickness and tenderness are all there! Satisfied!

    It's okay to look at it as a purely original story, that is, if the government takes me away and puts my brain into Scarlett Johansson's body, I... I have no objection.
