There are no monsters in this world, just in your heart~

At the beginning of the film, I feel that it is a low-cost film, an unconventional film, but it feels like a good film.

You need to be patient and watch it slowly. The murmur-like background music and the solemn and gloomy atmosphere really set off the whole film very well. The shooting of the lens is also very photographic, and some of the shots are quite beautiful.

This is indeed a good film. Like many brothers said before, there is the feeling of the ninth district + road film + disaster film. But this is a very personal perspective, not the big perspective and big scene like in the past.

From the perspective of the 9th District, I think one of them is satirizing the arrogant spirit of the United States. In fact, the alien monsters in the film didn't do anything serious, they were just ordinary animals. All I saw was that they were migrating and courting. The two at the end can even be called cute, but they are so It's absurd to be labeled as harmful, to be eliminated, because of its general shape and strange appearance. There are also those parasitic on the tree, and there is no harm. And those hearty Mexicans are also very dissatisfied with the Americans, because the Americans want to destroy monsters and turn their homes into battlefields. For them, Americans are more than monsters! The dialogue between the two protagonists under the high wall made their hearts clear. The United States always advertises its beautiful and free life, and always talks about helping others. In fact, it always uses invisible and visible walls to protect itself. Protected, I don't know who is more sad. In the end, such a wall was in vain, and was invaded by monsters.

From the perspective of a road movie, it is an adventure story of two people. As we go all the way, human nature is displayed. In fact, I don't like the male lead, he acted like a jerk from the beginning, always lusting after the heroine's idea. In the end, the heroine fell in love with him, in fact, it was a little reluctant, but there was nothing better. Under such circumstances, he was the only person who could rely on him, and her fiancé, in fact, she had been running away in her heart.

The feeling of a disaster movie is actually not too much.

To say that there is no big scene, so many tanks, planes, and ruins are still used a lot, and the monster's stunts are also well done, not worse than those blockbusters.

Great movie, it gave me a lot to think about! highly recommended!
