"Thunderbolt"

When I first saw this movie, I wanted to write something, but I was always distracted by other things. This time, focus your firepower and get it done with Bermuda. The story of "Thunderbolt" originated from a science fiction short story "Time Hunting" by the famous sci-fi master Ray Bradbury. The main story of the film is that in 2054, technology is developed enough that going back to the past through a time machine can become a commercial activity. In an operation of "going back to the past to hunt", a Brazilian butterfly that was trampled to death changed the evolution of life on earth. Time shocks have finally changed modern society beyond recognition.
In general, the film is well done, the special effects are up to standard, the plot is up to standard, and the actors' performances are up to standard. But it's only up to the mark. I saw this paragraph in the introduction of this film on many websites: "The main reason for the delay of the premiere time is that the special effects production in the later stage of the film has not been able to satisfy the director and investors." I wanted to laugh. Anyone who has seen the movie must be impressed by the special effects in the first half of the movie? Even a few of my friends who haven't watched sci-fi blockbusters very often think the effect is too fake. I don't know how the numb fans who have been bombarded with visual effects in recent years will feel. However, the second half of the movie is pretty good. Worth the 80 million investment.
If you have the ability to go back to the past, what if you can guarantee that your actions will not change the existing present? If you did something in the past, what impact will it have on the present? This proposition is common enough, but also vital enough. It's like "Who am I? Where did I come from? Where am I going?" There never seems to be an answer.
This movie is closer to the original concept of "Butterfly Effect" than "Butterfly Effect". Interestingly, it uses a trampled "Brazil Butterfly" to lead the story. For how to express the changes caused by butterflies, the movie uses tsunami-like waves of time. After watching "Thunderbolt" and "Bermuda", it is natural to connect the time waves in the two films. It's really similar. It is also as tall as a wall, as unstoppable as a tsunami, and as transparent as water; after it is also swept away, the scene has undergone incredible changes.
Edward Burns, who plays the captain in the movie, when I first saw him, I thought it was Ben Affleck. The faces of these two buddies are real. When I saw the first wave of time shocks, the female scientist said that the "time wave" would gradually change the real world and transition from lower creatures to higher creatures, I suddenly thought of King Kong and dinosaurs in "King Kong" fight scene. What would it look like if King Kong and dinosaurs were put together? I didn't expect that a combination of orangutan and dinosaur actually appeared later. It's supernatural -___-||
