The film is an alternate future setting. AI is highly developed. Not only does it have professional handling and combat AI, but humans can also undergo surgery the day after tomorrow and become semi-humans. The heroine briefly appears at the beginning of the film, explaining her true identity and the main task of the film from the heroine's perspective. Then the battle team came on stage, explaining the team structure and the main tasks of the film from the perspective of the team. It's about 14 minutes here, and the movie has begun to enter the main body. What I criticize more is the 14 minutes before the start of the main film.
As a futuristic sci-fi overhead movie, I think some of the most basic era background of the movie should be added in the opening part, which can allow the audience to better understand many details of the main contradiction of the later plot.
For example: (1) What was the social state of human beings at that time? What is the basic relationship and living state between pure human, semi-transformed human, fully transformed human, and pure AI? This background can help the audience understand why the captain and heroine are kept cool all the time. In the film, many of the main contradictions lie in the state of the two sides not talking information, obviously, more information can make the team more alert. In addition to thawing in the last decisive battle, the captain was very cold and refused to talk to the heroine. Even after losing many players, he still refused to compromise, still did not change his posture, and would rather be sad and blame himself. Ken asked for help, and most of the changes were reconciled by the black players. Is this a grudge in a previous life... The audience can only guess from the few conversations that the captain didn't communicate with the heroine because he was worried about losing his career as a soldier and was sulking with the heroine! This……
(2) What was the military structure of human society at that time? The explanation of this background is helpful for the later part of the battle. The combat team in the movie is trained for combat, so should it be a very powerful professional soldier like SWAT? However, before the final battle, the Demoman had a dialogue saying, "...Maybe you are right, maybe I'm not suitable for this...", the Demoman was also arranged to show panic, blind obedience, and nearness in the previous encounter. A crashing character, in contrast to the cool veteran character of a black sniper. This setting actually confuses me even more - it is not professional, nor is it a militia, so what is the existence of this combat team in the background of the movie? I can't figure it out
(3) The villain of the movie is a pure AI that evolves on its own, and the biggest confusion about the reason why pure AI resists humans is not mentioned in the movie at all. Is it a conspiracy theory? Did the company that develops the war machine for the heroine do it on purpose? Or is AI spontaneous, and the director tries to discuss the old topic of the coexistence of humans and AI? Neither one is involved.
In short, the biggest experience after watching this movie is the inexplicable fierce battle between a team of human warriors and AI. The original English name of the movie is Identity, and the Chinese translation is "Killing Command", which is probably more popular than "identity confirmation". However, from the content, I think it is more accurate to call it "Human Militia Squad Deathmatch Evil AI".
