The story was written by Michael Crichto, the author of "Jurassic Park", and tells the story of a satellite that fell into an American suburb, causing a viral disaster.
The film is divided into three lines to tell the story, the research of experts in the laboratory, the struggle of the military at the scene of the disaster, and the in-depth interviews of reporters in the army. I feel that the line of reporters is optional. Although the progress of the story is told from the lowest level, it seems to be too superficial and does not portray the image of reporters too much, so that the role of reporters has no color in the film. The film involves too much professional knowledge and a lot of political background, and it feels too cumbersome. Fortunately, the plot is compact and the special effects are shocking.
The film involves traveling through time and space, which reminds me of the fourth season of "Lost" that I just finished watching; the virus involved will inevitably remind me of "28 Days Later"; and the aircraft and tank scenes throughout the film also have the theme of "Independence Day". shadow.
However, the 3-hour film seems to be too long if viewed as a movie. If it is edited in the middle and some plots are deleted, the plot may be more compact; if viewed as a series, it is too short, there is no one Clues with a wider span can keep the story going. The film leaves a foreshadowing of a sequel at the end.
The best movie I've seen recently, you can watch it.
