If aliens wear famous brand watches, then Zhu once...

Scientists say that there is another way to identify alien invaders: They are all wearing designer watches, which are actually their pagers and teleporters. In this way, once Zhu is actually... everyone may not really be sent to Africa...... Carpenter satirized entertainment to death and the wave of consumerism with B-level fun: aliens in order to control The earth acquires resources and promises to people that as long as you cooperate with me, you can become richer and richer and buy more and more things. Since then, they have mastered the news radio to control public opinion, use [consumerism] to brainwash people and enslave the people of the earth. Part of the poor who discovered the truth resolutely joined the resistance organization. Therefore, they have become the so-called "low-end population" and have become objects that need to be eliminated... Behind all consumerism, there are hidden conspiracies and control. If you want to see through the truth, you only have to wear sunglasses (which can be seen as a kind of "masking"). The picture comparison here is quite interesting: I want you to desperately buy and buy, just to make you lose your thinking, addicted to TV, and obey control.

In fact, what we are facing right now is exactly this situation: the advancement of technology makes [consumerism] pervasive and becomes a part of your life, and then it erodes thoughts like drugs and makes people dependent.

Skyscrapers are soaring into the clouds, but beliefs and thoughts have fallen into the abyss.

The idea of ​​the whole film is quite good, but later it becomes a regular routine of B-level film. The muscular hunk fights in the street, and the black and white two men fight for justice. But the ending is interesting. When the base station was destroyed, all the aliens hidden in the crowd showed their original form. There was a sister who was xxoo with each other on the bed, she was about to climax, and when she lowered her head, she found that it was a skull face... There was nothing more nasty than this.

    The concept is advanced and the current malpractice is ironic, and it satirizes the American consumerism, hedonism, and concerns about television as a communication medium. Wasn’t it the popular theory of "television people" in those days? The mimicry reality that television propagated finally made viewers stop thinking. It is easy to control. Of course, this theory is outdated in this era. It is replaced by the fear of the Internet and social media, which is why there is a black mirror. The sunglasses in the film reveal all the aliens, and the protagonist wearing the sunglasses is the forerunner of the Matrix. I wanted to play four stars, but the fight between the protagonist and the black supporting role in the film was too long and tedious, and there is a suspicion of delaying time. I guess the protagonist of the wrestler wants to add drama. This movie continued Carpenter's usual low-cost and rough wind, and started filming after finding some tramp in the garbage dump.

    Recommend this super sharp film, the whole film is a perfect metaphor. At first, I thought that the fight between the two in the middle seemed a bit boring, but later I found out that this is the process of the pioneers to wake up the numb!
