I haven't watched any new films for nearly half a year, so I turned on my computer and watched such a not-so-brainy film.
With the help of sci-fi routines and the idea of changing bodies, this film is aimed at the wealthy and terminally ill elite. The entire business is hidden and orderly. First, it creates a fait accompli in the public opinion circle by feigning death in public, and then in a very short period of time, it carries out soul transformation through simple equipment and transfers the human soul to a new body.
In the first 20 minutes of the film, the premise story is told in a fast and smooth rhythm. Although it is not outstanding, the overall content is relatively pertinent. Aside from the rudimentary equipment in the science lab, this is a decent sci-fi flick. According to this line of thinking, the male protagonist, after changing his body, can completely devote his life to his new identity. However, he suddenly realizes that his body is not cultivated in nutrient solution, but an ordinary man with a family. , so the style of painting changed suddenly, from a sci-fi film to a fighting film. The scene is no longer to explore the possibility of this future model, but in the process of the struggle between human nature and the dark forces.
Looking at the whole film objectively, it is like that rudimentary laboratory, with plastic-covered walls everywhere, CT-like instruments, and intractable details.
Let’s talk about the more obvious loopholes. When entering the instrument, there should be no metal in the body. Such a simple taboo, can’t you buy a detector for airport use? That's how the male protagonist was reversed through the metal piece in his mouth. With a business of 200 million yuan, you can't buy a metal detector?
In the video of the transformed scientist, there are young scientists next to it. Such an obvious loophole will be seen through at a glance, but the video is actually allowed to exist on the Internet.
The male protagonist is rich and wise, and in the face of his own life and death, he entrusts his entire net worth with just one business card and one line of words, which is completely inconsistent with the character designed for the male protagonist at the beginning.
The entire escape process is even more without scrutiny, and the reluctantly designed special forces background cannot explain why such a laboratory that holds the ultimate secret of mankind is so vulnerable, and it was quickly defeated by this family of three.
All in all, the whole film is mostly absurd except for the idea of changing the body. In the same film, "Don't Let Me Go" is full of the hidden and implicit emotions of the eastern world. There is no sci-fi scene in the whole film, but the confusion and self-pursuit of clones are vividly shot. This film is slightly similar, and it is also discussing the feasibility and rationality of natural persons to prolong their lives. If human clones are used, it may be much better for natural people, at least without the burden of mind. It should be unacceptable to use other natural persons to deprive others of their lives through abnormal means to continue. What the film is about to explore is such an ethical relationship, but unfortunately the design of the whole film is rather dull, and the scenes built do not conform to the audience's usual sci-fi vision. The story is presented through the contradictory and different personalities of the same person, which is a failure as a whole.
