punk fairy tale

It also seems to be a movie that has been seen before, and it feels very good after watching it. Thinking about where the relationship between robots and humans should go.

After reading it, the deepest feeling is the problem of story design. There are too many perspectives of characters. Uncle Kenichi's investigation line, Kenichi Tima's escape line, Locke's pursuit line, the political line of Duke Rhett and the president, and Tima's own design The Doctor and the Duke of Rhett are in the same line, and the multi-line design can indeed enrich the content, but in the linear narrative, because of the multi-line content, there is actually no line to tell the complete story, and the viewing experience is a bit poor.

Based on the above, it is even more obvious that the characters are not deeply shaped. Uncle's image of an old urchin and Locke's image of hating robots are actually worth showing in depth. In the end, only Kenichi's image is relatively full, and the others rely entirely on imagination... and Kenichi Still the standard male lead template

There is nothing wrong with the character design in the style of painting, even the 2001 film is not inferior at all; the subject matter is very interesting, Jigurui's sci-fi high-rise and class society, the bottom-level rebel Atlas, and the leader of Locke The Marduk Party of the 1970s has many forces mixed together, and the metaphors in it are very thought-provoking.

The bottom world is full of cyberpunk designs, as well as the story of the Tower of Babel nested in it, and it is a bit mythical. Although it is a hodgepodge, it has a unique charm.

In general, the storyline design is deducted, and the others are very good

    Awesome name, awesome idea, awesome artistic conception, awesome pattern, too awesome. The rhythm and composition have a strong American style, and the texture of the picture is really very good. It is unique and outstanding. It is the first time I have seen sci-fi themes paired with jazz, but thinking about it, it fits the confusion and waste of the post-future era presented in the film. rustic. The last thirty minutes are dizzying, epic and magnificent, but unexpectedly freehand. It combines prosperity and dilapidation ingeniously, and perfectly integrates objectivity and classicism. The future and history are staged at the same time, which is a double shock of perception and thought. A work that is ahead of its time, and it was a long time before our world developed to a high level. Maybe this height is to really understand the meaning of that question in the movie.

    The scene is top notch.

Metropolis quotes

  • Duke Red: [is wearing ancient Babylonian-style clothes and standing on a platform. The background behind him is in Sepia tone and clouds are moving about] At this moment we as a nation are about to touch the stars! I tremble at the honour of announcing the culmination of mankind's history of intellectual and scientific achievement. Yesterday our power spanned the Earth, today it can illuminate the heavens! May it stand forever! Our Ziggurat!

  • Tima: [Tima has just discovered that she is a robot, not a human] I am an artificial human. A machine created to conquer the world and destroy it.
