I give this movie a 6.5 out of 10. Although it's not a high score, it's a pretty moving movie and definitely worth sitting in a movie theater and watching it from beginning to end. The reason why the score is low is because the film itself is a crime, suspense and fighting theme. The characteristics of these aspects are not sufficient, the logic is not very strong, the plot is not particularly compact, the plot progresses slowly, the suspense is not strong, and the villain comes up. It was exposed, and the cause and purpose were explained very straightforwardly, and there was no tension and bloodshed that is unique to crime themes. As a 3D movie, except for a few scenes overlooking the city from the sky, I really didn't see any need for 3D special effects.
Well, after talking about the disadvantages, it's time to talk about the advantages. I think this movie is under the banner of criminal suspense, but it is actually more like a family love and human nature blockbuster. Of course, this film has a strong commercial atmosphere, and naturally it cannot be classified as a literary film. But despite this, it is still worth watching, why, because this drama is particularly tear-jerking, especially able to find something that moves people, and it is also good at integrating a little technological factor into human nature, forcing people to assume the role of the protagonist and experience together. That kind of entanglement and life-and-death struggle. One of the success signs of a movie is also a strong sense of substitution. If the audience can strongly substitute their own emotions into the emotions of the protagonist, then there is no doubt that the entire audience will be immersed in the emotions shaped by the film. Even when the end-credits music sounded, he was reluctant to stand up for a long time. To be able to do this is quite successful.
The protagonist of the film, Jericho (played by Kevin Scottna), has a poor background. His mother tells him that his father is not his father, he was born to her with another man, and he keeps calling him father Throw him straight out of the car. His brain fell and part of his brain stopped developing. Since then, he can't perceive feelings, love, sadness, etc. No matter how others explain to him, he can't understand. He gradually grew into a burly man, but because he couldn't experience emotion, no happiness or sadness, he embarked on the road of crime and was arrested several times in prison. No matter what kind of education he received, he could not become a normal person, he was not afraid Injured, and without the slightest apology for causing any harm to others, the prison chained him around his neck and locked him in an iron fence.
At this time, scientist and doctor Dr. Frank (played by Tommy Lee Jones), along with CIA agents, came to pick up the prisoner Jericho. Because Agent Billy Pope has just died, and there is a secret in his brain that is closely related to the security of the country. Dr. Frank led a brain memory transfer operation, which completely implanted the memory of the deceased agent Billy Pope into Jericho's brain. Jericho was selected because he suffered a brain injury since he was a child. A part of it stops developing, which is equivalent to a blank space, which can be used to store completely different memories.
The previous situation was basically explained, and the movie entered the touching mode. After Jericho wakes up, Agent Billy Pope's memory comes into play. Jericho himself is a simple, rough, emotionless man. His stature is sturdy and powerful. Although he has other people's memories, he still acts according to Jericho's behavior for the time being, but every behavior has quietly infiltrated the influence of the agent. He has the strength and skill of Jericho, but also the intelligence and logical thinking of an agent. When he found danger approaching, he could decisively and quietly open the back door of the car, strangled the driver in front from behind, and then killed all the agents who wanted to kill him. Leaving gracefully.
He broke into the convenience store and shot things directly. He drove away other people's cars. He didn't pay for food. Anyone who refused to accept it would be beaten or killed. All these actions are very rude and cold-blooded. When doing all this, he has no sympathy, no compassion for any innocent life, but he has begun to unconsciously use language that he has never used before. French, while quickly mastering computer skills, was able to connect to the CIA's network and cut off other people's connections. At the same time, a flood of Billy Pope's memories flooded his mind. A very unfamiliar emotion struck him, and it was love.
He was very confused and dissatisfied, because he didn't like love, it made him feel sad, sweet, and caring, and at the same time made him feel a softness that he had never had before, a kind that made his heart beat faster, and he couldn't say it was Good or bad feeling. Annoyed by this, he approached Frank and asked him to solve his problems. Frank told him he only had 48 hours. In other words, he will only have 48 hours of memory of this stranger. Then it will disappear. At the time, he didn't realize what those 48 hours meant.
He came to Billy Pope's house by ghost, or was guided by memory, and looked at his sleeping wife and child. In his mind, a picture of once in love with each other appeared. He was touched, but still bound his wife in Jericho's way. But when he entered the child's room, looking at the sleeping face of the child, he did not act, but left quickly. He looted a bunch of stuff and took it to the pawnshop to exchange for money. At the moment when he was about to close the deal, he took back the small comb, which was his daughter's. The sweet memory of the comb pounded into his mind over and over again. He chose to keep the comb and hand it back to his wife the next time he entered Billy Pope's house. It was this move that made his wife begin to give up her resistance and doubts towards him, and began to communicate with him eagerly.
It was after he was injured and there was blood on his body. His wife had a gun, ready to pull the trigger on him. But Jericho's actions showed that he wouldn't hurt her. Until she asks him a secret that only the two of them know, and he expresses her love for her little gesture, he puts his finger on his nose. He said, that means I love you, he loves you very much, really. At that moment, she felt that he was her husband, even though his appearance was completely different, although he looked so violent, he showed a very gentle side, and it was as if the husband was alive, he would never hurt her still have kids. After that, he made waffles for the child and buried the doll representing Dad with the child.
It all went so tenderly that Jericho was gradually replaced by Billy Pope. But 48 hours are coming soon, and this warm memory of someone else is quietly leaving him. At this time, the danger to the country has not been lifted, but his wife and daughter were kidnapped by bad guys. Jericho's memory evaporated like air, and he even began to forget some of the names in Billy Pope's memory. But his emotional world is still far away from Jericho. He fell in love with Billy Pope's wife, daughter, or, he thought, his own wife and daughter. He has deep feelings for them and is willing to protect them with his life.
The CIA officials were as anxious as mad. The flaws in the national security network discovered by the computer geniuses of the Netherlands can launch missiles unscrupulously. The CIA and a gang of villains trying to destroy the world are all looking for the Dutchman, and the Dutchman's spiritual tipping point is approaching. He ordered a missile to launch, shattering it in the air. Both gangs are looking for the Dutchman. The memory of where the Dutchman lived was stored in Jericho's brain. It was the memory of dead agent Billy Pope. Both gangs are looking for Jericho. However, the bad guys took the lead in kidnapping Billy Pope's wife and daughter.
Jericho tried his best to get the Dutchman's flash drive. At this time, the state ordered him not to care about the lives of the woman and the child, and must not hand over the plate to the bad guys. Otherwise, this country will be ruined. At that moment, no one cared about the life of that woman and that child. There was only Jericho, the once ruthless criminal with the memories of Agent Billy Pope in his head. The memories of his wife and children were wafting like smoke, and soon they would disappear from his mind. But he firmly remembered that he loved them. He will swear to protect them.
At the end of the movie, of course, Jericho played smart, not only rescued his wife and children, but also blew the bad guys to ashes. He was seriously injured and was lucky enough to be put out of the fire, but lost his memory. At this point Frank and the CIA leadership, along with his wife and children, were working together, on the beach when they got married, trying to evoke that part of Billy Pope's memory of him. According to the usual happy ending of American movies, in the end, of course, his memory was awakened, his brain completely turned into Billy Pope, and the family of three lived a happy life.
The movie starts tearing up from the moment Billy Pope's memory starts to work in Jericho's brain. A rough man suddenly had tenderness. Every little action and every look in his eyes seemed to be an innocent little animal suddenly loved and protected, and then a kindness emerged. The scene where the bad guy becomes good and the cold blood turns into warmth really makes every audience cry frequently. Especially the interaction with his wife and children makes people feel a kind of beautiful feeling. I feel that in this world, it is such a blessing to be able to love someone from the heart, to protect someone, to be loved and protected. thing.
The advantage of watching this movie is that we soak our usual numb emotions in water, so that our emotions can be nourished and vented in the touching emotions. People living in the city are too shrewd and too indifferent. It is difficult to have great joys and sorrows in life. After watching this movie, you can let out the warmth and emotion in your heart, which is beneficial to your body and mind. So I suggest everyone to go to the cinema to watch this movie when you have time. You will be full of emotion and oxygenate your body and mind.
A little digression: Since the memory, logic and even emotions of the brain can be extracted and preserved, in the future, can human memories be stored in the brains of robots, and then robots with high IQ and human emotions will be born? . What does it feel like to fall in love with such a robot? Or, when the technology to store brain memory exists, each of us can become immortal and keep our thoughts forever with the help of machines?
