This French blockbuster, at least in special effects, has surpassed the Hollywood blockbuster "Avatar"

If I had known that Wu Yifan, the monster with facial paralysis, would star in this movie, I wouldn't watch it if I killed it, but after watching it, I think this movie is worth watching. After all, it is the work of the French national treasure director Luc Besson, and this is "Interstellar: The City of a Thousand Planets".

The film is adapted from the french comic "Interstellar Agent", a comical comic. The appearance of this comic is said to have directly influenced many sci-fi movies such as Star Wars, Star Trek, The Fifth Element, and Blade Runner.

This French blockbuster has surpassed the Hollywood blockbuster "Avatar" in terms of special effects.

As a sci-fi film, this film is simply weak in terms of storytelling. The plot alone is not worth a star. Fortunately, this film is the largest. The selling point is not the plot, but his special effects.

The producer of this film is not a big Hollywood company that we often hear about, but a film invested by a French film company. However, for this film with a total investment of more than 210 million US dollars, the special effects alone cost 130 million US dollars. In terms of vision, it has long surpassed the originator of 3D movies "Avatar" and has become one of the top sci-fi movies in the world.

This French blockbuster has surpassed the Hollywood blockbuster "Avatar" in terms of special effects.

Although it is expensive as a French film, the main dialogue of the film is still in English, which makes it easy to mistake it for a Hollywood blockbuster. In order to please Chinese audiences, Chinese also appeared in the city of a thousand stars in the movie. Of course, letting the box office poison Wu Yifan play soy sauce in this film is also based on the consideration of the Chinese market, and this soy sauce role does not require any acting skills at all, so it is not necessary for Wu Yifan to play it.

The movie takes place in the 28th century, in a utopian city with 3,236 intelligent beings in the universe, more than 5,000 languages, and a population of 30 million. Various human beings share knowledge and coexist peacefully. It prospered and prospered. However, the mysterious dark forces of the universe are trying to destroy it all. A pair of earth-loving agents, Xiao Ming and Xiaohong, discovered the truth. It turned out that the human army commander Xiaoqiang had a selfish combat command, destroying the planet of the Pearl Man, who was still in the primitive society, and the kind Pearl Man did not treat humans. For revenge, they just want to find the last transformation beast and the last pearl to help them restore their country, but the commander Xiaoqiang who commanded the wrong war wanted to cover up the crimes of mankind by cutting the grass and roots. The ending of the story is that with the help of Xiaoming and Xiaohong, the Pearl people successfully recovered their country, and the commander Xiaoqiang was brought to justice.

This French blockbuster has surpassed the Hollywood blockbuster "Avatar" in terms of special effects.

"Interstellar: The City of a Thousand Planets" may be the most pleasing combination of special effects and colors among recent cinema films, and can best show the spectacle of the future world. There are two scenes in the movie that best reflect the spectacle of visual effects: the blue sea and blue sky of the Pearl Planet, and the spaceship carrying tourists from the earth traveling at the speed of light in the big market. In the film, these pearl people who look like Caucasian Avatars, their planets are too beautiful and greasy. As a lover of beach and sea view rooms, how can I not be moved and envied when I see the pearl people living in shells in the film. The depth of field of the Alien Rift Valley under the blessing of the 3D effect, and the dazzling feeling brought by the various neon lights in the big market store are all very good viewing experiences.

Acceptance, forgiveness, love and trust. That's the gist of Luc Besson's latest film, "Interstellar." In this movie, the Pearl people chose to forgive. They did not take revenge on the earthlings who destroyed their homeland, but chose to accept the fact that they already existed and move towards the future of rebuilding their homeland. The hero and heroine also chose to accept the sins of their own race that once destroyed another planet, and moved towards a future that will make up for their mistakes.

This French blockbuster has surpassed the Hollywood blockbuster "Avatar" in terms of special effects.

Although this mistake is too huge, it seems a little naive to forgive the pearl easily. The hero and heroine are not worried that this mistake may force humans to withdraw from the interstellar space station. The fact that human civilization has been set back a thousand years is too naive.

But just as director Luc Besson said when answering questions from the audience after the viewing session: Human beings are forever swaying in innocence and cynicism. A child will say that he went to heaven, and an adult will say that he is dead. If given a choice, he would always choose naivety.

This may be the reason why such important issues are easily let go: the reality is already heavy, please let us be naive in the story and follow our hearts.

    It is very different from the style of the American comic film. There is no stalk that makes people laugh all the way. The humor is relatively low-key. I like the male protagonist very much (I like him very much in Little Spider 2), and I prefer the heroine's character. The imagination is really great. Unlike many movies that make the plot dominate under the banner of science fiction, this one is really science fiction. I like it~

    "The enemy has hid in our own territory. As a federal agent, I have to find the most legal diplomatic method to rescue the hostages; in my opinion, this method is to let me sneak into the palace in disguise, and then put the king and his staff in front of the hostages. A dozen people were killed in one go, using their own guns! Commander, what do you think?"
