This year, there is an American science fiction movie that has attracted a lot of attention and controversy since it was broadcast. This is "annihilation". ? ... This film is adapted from the American science fiction writer Jeff VanderMeer's "The Lost South" a book. The director of this film is Alex Garland, a famous British director. The theme of anti-humanity is the consistent style of his director or screenwriter films. ?... This film is another sci-fi masterpiece produced by Netflix. Compared with other sci-fi movies produced, it has attracted more attention because of the fame of the original. ? ··· This film sets a science fiction space similar to "Mechanical Ji", telling a group of scientists to explore the secret of alien creatures. ? ... However, the film has a lot of controversy. One is that although the film is a science fiction film on the surface, it lacks the sci-fi feeling of a science fiction film, and the weird plot and scene settings are more like a horror film. So the location of the film is very awkward. ?The second is whether the artificial human being transformed by alien creatures is more perfect or more suitable for becoming human than human beings? ? ... Anyway, this is an intriguing movie. Although there are many loopholes, it can really bring people a lot of thinking about the future and human nature, especially the ending is very scary. ?

    A / Penetrate the wall in "Masquerade", and return to the union of all transformations and underworlds in non-human and non-life, self-abandonment, self-destruction, annihilation, and "rebirth". There are so many classic sci-fi elements mixed together but all of them are unpredictable, and the final core concept is actually hazy like a thorough understanding. In the framework of mainstream commercial stories, the narrative potential of flowing and jumping is exploited to the greatest extent, and the calm and steady release finally becomes the third act of brilliant flowers. Top 10 must-enters of the year.

    There is a sense of cheapness visually, but the atmosphere is very good. I understand that it is about a story of an alien species first adopting its own methods and finally adopting human methods to stay on the earth.
