The understanding of sci-fi becomes a single individual heroism

I have seen John Woo's Sword Rain, The True Color of Heroes, Across the World, Chibi...

I have seen Nolan's Memento, Batman, Interstellar, Creed...

Today I made up for John Woo's "Memory Crack (2004)"

Also from the "Memory" series

Mr. Wu's filming is really not strong enough, and he is not comfortable with the soil and water

The selection of materials can barely get four stars

The setting and acting can only give two stars

The core of the story is even worse

The core of science fiction

It must not be just personal heroism to save the world

There are so many emotions that can be portrayed:

fear of the unknown

Innate desire to explore

Conflict between the future and the present

rescue and abandonment

ideal and reality

How human nature can rival the vast universe

Long and endless loneliness

The satisfaction of conjecture being verified

Humans inevitably go to space

like a primitive pair of fish going to land

It's part of evolution

This is also the fate written in the genes

I really have to say that Nolan is still the No.1 commercial director in my heart

    From "changing face" to "changing brain", Wu Yusen's journey to Hollywood is still full of stars, still with strong Chinese elements, a bit of spying and the meaning of initiating dreams. In addition, Wu Yusen's movies will never do without pigeons.

    So what. . . Another translation of this film is Memory Crack and it is very similar to the name of the memory fragment. The unknown death in India and the memory fragment are very similar in plot. Finally, I successfully confused the three movies shit!

Paycheck quotes

  • Wolfe: So, you're saying he sent himself a different set of personal items, ones he'd selected after using the machine, and nothing our security would flag.

    Jimmy Rethrick: Everyday things. Combined with the power of foresight, transform Michael from engineer to escape artist.

    [Rethrick looks at the continued computer virus signal and adds grimly:]

    Jimmy Rethrick: I don't know about you, but I'd like to return the favor.

  • [Michael is focusing on the Einstein stamps on the envelope of items]

    Rachel Porter: What?

    Michael Jennings: You know, when I checked this envelope out of Reddy Grant, they told me I signed in twenty items. But there were only nineteen.

    Rachel Porter: I don't understand.

    [He picks up a magnifying glass and examines the Einstein stamps. One of them has a strangely pixelated eye. The camera cuts to a laboratory in which Jennings is examining the stamps under a microscope while Rachel stands behind him. The pixels turn out to be Seattle newspaper headlines, such as "Machine Predicts Future" and "Stock Market Panic."]

    Rachel Porter: [frightened] What are these pictures of?
