The beginning of the movie is still a bit interesting, the Martians are coming, what about the earthlings? What should the president do? For mankind, this is indeed an unprecedented event. So the attitude and preparations of human society became the focus of the audience: the president’s posture, the pretense of scientists, the roar of the armed factions, people who yearn for peace... and the contrast created by the arrival of aliens also created The strong conflict and laughter also produced a strong irony of the previous preparations of mankind.
Yes, this line of thought is a great irony, but the point is that this is not the only clue to the movie. In addition, there are desert families, separated couples, profit-seeking bosses, and alcoholic wives... Ideally, so many characters should work together for the theme and create the faces of all beings in the movie. But in reality, many characters in the movie are caught in a vicious circle of fighting alone. Although the arrival of the Martians made this group of people connected at last, the connection is far-fetched and blunt.
More importantly, the existence of this group of people is meaningless for the advancement of the plot, and the setting of their respective roles is not irreplaceable. Their appearance is nothing more than telling everyone what kind of impact the Martians have on humans. But this can be done in one stroke. Is it necessary to set up so many characters? Such a setting not only fails to provide effective services for the sublimation of the theme and the advancement of the plot, but it weakens the ironic significance of the presidential clue.
This reminds me of another classic movie "True Love First", which is also multi-line narrative. Anyway, "True Love First" uses multiple characters to create a love atmosphere on Christmas Day. What about "The Martian Plays on Earth"? Are so many characters to create a common atmosphere? No, they each have their own stories. Therefore, this setting is simply because the main line has a limited degree of excitement, so it can only increase the characters to maintain the layering of the story and enrich the excitement of the story. But the result obviously failed, because these roles were scattered.
Although the Martian’s persona is very interesting, there are also some strange jokes. These cult elements neutralize the bluntness of the storyline and all kinds of strange turns, but they have not been able to further raise the level of the whole movie. Therefore, the audience is still watching the music. After all, there are so many weird aliens and a group of characters for no reason. This is indeed a messy farce.
