One of the most amazing space movies I've seen so far! I just watched Gravity yesterday, and it is also about space rescue, but there is still a gap compared to this one. This rescue film was shot in Russia. During the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union, a space station lost contact. The two astronauts had to solve the difficult, difficult and almost impossible docking task, as well as the equipment problems caused by the fire of Salyut 7 after the successful docking. . In just 100 minutes, the astronauts faced several life-and-death decisions: the first time was to ask an experienced male protagonist to come back to perform a docking mission, which required overcoming the relative position between the rotating space station and the spacecraft. Finding the right speed and angle, and in theory the orbital height determines the speed and the moment of docking, which is an almost impossible task; the second time was when thawing the icy space station, two people had severe fever due to extreme cold; The third time was when the space station short-circuited and caught fire after Victor was burnt, delirious, and had hallucinations; the last time was when there was not enough oxygen for two people to return to Earth and only one person had to be sacrificed. These four life-and-death decisions constitute the main contradiction and propellant of the film, and the lifting of each crisis leads the story to a new climax. While the astronauts are performing their missions, the film also focuses on friendship, family affection and life. The male protagonist is a very experienced cosmonaut in the Soviet Union, and Victor is an engineer and involved in most of the instruments on No. 7. When fishing together, the male protagonist complained that Victor was not a real astronaut if he had not been out of the cabin. Victor listened to his complaint and said nothing. When asked in the command room who Victor would like to perform on a mission with, Victor recommended the male lead. Because Victor understands the desire in the male protagonist's heart. desire for space. Likewise, both astronauts have families. Before going into space, the wife's reaction is the same, anxious, worried, afraid of losing the person she loves. Victor's wife is due to give birth, which is also a dark line in the film. When the two finally repaired No. 7, he heard from the ground that he had a daughter, which cheered everyone up: when they were about to sacrifice, they were given a new life and a new life was born. I think it's the film that moves people. There are two beautiful moments in the movie. One is when the male protagonist learns that he cannot return to the space station and slowly closes his eyes. The magnificent music sets off the conflict, combining life and death and the conflict of peace; the second scene is the two of them. Entering the dark night in the space station to watch the aurora together, the atmosphere, grandeur, the vastness of the universe and the unyielding will of man are vividly displayed. The green light also appears several times in the film, and has a very symbolic meaning: hope. The green light is the light of hope. Together, at the most difficult moment, the two seized hope and won the mission. At this time, the green light reappeared as the end of the movie. Breathtaking and expansive! The beautiful visual introduction and the vast music bring us an excellent look and feel from the sensory level, and the spirit of people is vividly displayed in the decision of life and death! After reading it, I just want to travel with Feixian and hold the bright moon to the end. In the vast universe, countless souls can float, and countless good things remain here. Like I'm watching this movie now, peace
