In the future world, global warming continues to cause the sea level to rise sharply, many parts of the United States are flooded, and Miami has become a Gotham City on the water, where corruption and crime thrive.
Severe environmental crisis, polarization between rich and poor, rich people build high dams to prevent seawater from invading the interior, human beings have fought many wars in border areas, the male protagonist is a retired soldier who turned into a self-employed person, and uses a high-tech machine to help customers. Relive memories.
This technology originated from the interrogation of prisoners in wartime. According to the guidance of the guide, the past in the prisoner's mind appeared on the screen, so as to restore the truth.
Five years before the main storyline, the heroine Mae sang at a bar in New Orleans and met a gangster under the introduction of the corrupt police officer Cyrus Boothe. Under the bait, he became addicted to a drug named Baca.
It is said that the gap between languages is expected to become smaller and smaller in the future. When Azu and Uncle Lang chatted in Chinese and English, they seemed to understand each other.
After that, the heroine stole Azu's Baca and money and ran away, but was still approached by the corrupt police officer Boothe. Originally, the police officer was under the order of the boss, Azu, but because he was discovered to be wiping oil from Azu's business, the two parties broke up, and he was also set on fire by Azu's men.
Now the bad police officer Boothe is working for a rich second generation. The father of the rich second generation is a real estate tycoon, and now he will die soon. Because the tycoon Walter Sylvan has an illegitimate child outside, he asks his son to find a mother and son outside for him so that he can take care of them. But Sebastian Sylvan, the rich second generation, didn't want to divide the property, so he sent the bad police officer Boothe to deal with Dad's outside lover and illegitimate child.
The tycoon's mistress, Elsa Carine, often visits Uncle Wolf's machine to relive her and her lover's past, because in her memory, the tycoon assures her that he will protect her. Her memory card from Uncle Wolf can be used as evidence to confirm her relationship with the tycoon.
In order to avoid future troubles, the rich second generation decided to destroy the memory card first, and then "solve" their mother and son.
The heroine is afraid of being taken back to see Azu by the bad police officer Boothe, so she is forced to cooperate with him. In order to get Elsa's memory card, she found the male protagonist Wolverine under the pretext of "finding the key". Rebecca Ferguson (Rebecca Ferguson), who plays the heroine, is the female singer in the movie "The King of the Circus", and here is another frontier with Wolverine.
Uncle Wolf has become a love brain since he met the heroine, and the two are sweet and greasy all day long. One day, the heroine disappeared because she finally stole the memory card.
Uncle Wolf's first reaction was that she was in danger, and I must find her.
Later, when I found out the real identity of the heroine, I was very angry and felt that I had been deceived. For example, what Azu said, Mae cheated me of my money and goods, but what can she cheat from you! ? (It turned out to be a memory card).
Uncle Wolf still insisted on finding the heroine, but his deputy felt that he was crazy at this time. If I hadn't been watching the movie, I would have thought he was sick too.
Fortunately, the hard work lived up to the "idiot" people, Uncle Wolf caught the bad police officer Boothe and learned the ins and outs from his memory.
After the heroine handed the memory card to Boothe, Boothe found her mistress Elsa and killed her. The heroine happened to come to rescue Elsa's son Freddie and escaped in a small boat, but in order to keep Freddie's place, the woman The master chooses to "take poison" and commit suicide by jumping off the building.
After Uncle Wolf announced the truth to the public, he spent the rest of his life in that high-tech machine, reliving his past with Mae over and over again.
The finale of this kind of pure love script was filmed a few years ago and it is estimated that it will touch a group of people, but after watching it now, I just feel "Well, it's really because of Sting." It turned out that the film was told in Nolan's shell. A suspenseful love story.
Director Lisa Joy is indeed a member of the Nuo family. Her husband, Jonathan Nolan, is the younger brother of the great director Christopher Nolan. She is Nolan's younger brother and sister.
The couple are both members of the creative team of the American TV series "Westworld". In this film, Thandiwe Newton, the black female deputy of Uncle Wolf, is the fastest awakening receptionist in "Westworld". Maeve .
It is not impossible to talk about love and emotions under the guise of future scientific research. I have watched Nolan's "Interstellar" many times, and I am still shocked and moved every time.
Although the film's coolest elements are the "future crime city" and "the machine that dives into memory," the director doesn't explore anything on the level of time and consciousness. So I really don't understand what this film is trying to say. This movie seems to be a mix of "Black Mirror", "Inception" and "Memento". However, the setting of the apocalypse can't hide the core of the petty family. Some feel that it is not easy for Uncle Wolf to fall in love.
