His latest masterpiece "Strike the World" is the most popular disaster film in Hollywood, just as everyone thought it was a more exaggerated and denser skewers of dead people and a distorted heroism movie of the Great America saving the earth. At that time, Stephen. Spielberg brought the audience a refreshing, thrilling and breathless journey to the end of the earth.
This film is adapted from the famous science fiction novel "The war of worlds". The content of the story can be summarized in one word, that is, the Martians invaded the earth. Originally, movies of aliens invading the earth have long been common, but this film is different from the past distorted heroic salvation mode. It is changed from the perspective of ordinary people to depict the panic and accompanying consequences caused by aliens invading the earth. The selfish foundation of human nature revealed. Without the high-tech rivalry setting of the Great America and the common people from head to tail, the petty citizen encounters of Lei and his sons and daughters, the film is full of real feelings, easily attracting the audience's substitution, and letting the audience. My heart is more frightened, and my heart falls up and down with the flow of images, completely out of breath.
It is also important to mention that the author particularly appreciates that the director not only focuses on the creation of substitution for ordinary people, but also deliberately adjusts the "coarse screen image" to make the movie look more real. In terms of creating a sense of selflessness for the audience, the two can be regarded as a perfect combination of content and form, and the effect really makes the palms of the audience sweaty like watching a frightening film.
As for the plot, in general, it does so one after another, and the climax is repeated as the layers progress, and there is no boring scene. The most outstanding one is the first half of the movie. The director deliberately arranged for aliens to come and go, only occasionally releasing a series of trembling lightning, and sometimes unprovoked shocking explosions, which allowed the viewers to use their imaginations and substitute themselves to reflect the people's sun. Helpless. This move is really nothing but a trick, and it is more horrible than the subtle turn of the extraterrestrial machinery that we are all used to depicting the frontal carnage of alien machinery.
Having said so many good things, of course, the author who has a good sex has to cite some of the flaws of the film.
The first thing to point out is that when the author is imagining how bleak the terrestrial people will end, the alien visitors Kuer fell one after another. Without the terrestrial people to win, the aliens would have lost themselves. The author thinks that the reasons for the ending are reasonable and acceptable but not exciting at all. There is no need to argue about this point, because in fact, the closing of the pen is indeed too fast and sudden, and the audience is over without reasonable preparation, which naturally makes people feel disappointed. Foolishly thought that in the middle of the film, if you can leave more foreshadowing for the ending, the effect will be much better.
The second point to be pointed out is the contradiction in the meaning of the theme. It’s said that this film conveys the message that mankind should not exterminate any race of life; originally we could see this truth from the self-effects of aliens, but we just want to get a deeper level. The reason for their final defeat was not that they wanted to exterminate the people on earth, but It was only planted by negligence after spying on the earth for millions of years and still unable to recognize that the earth was originally not suitable for one's own survival.
In addition, the author has also thought about why the background of the protagonist, Tang Gulus, must be set as a bad dad whose sons and daughters have gone with his mother? Do you want to use Tang Gu Rus, who only knows how to take care of himself in the past, as a selfish human being? So Tom Ruth's closeness to his daughter during this alien aggression disaster and the final happy ending is that the director should put aside selfishness and care for others to make a positive footnote to self-salvation? So, how does the director have to arrange another sensational scene of "Murder for a Woman"? Isn't this selfish?
In general, the "Strong" film has extremely high-level performances at all technical levels, making the whole film first-class atmosphere, and the audience is dizzying. What is particularly outstanding is that the filming of alien aggression is full of real feeling, just like a series of natural disaster films, and there is still a lingering fear after watching the movie. It's a pity that the ending is not well laid out, and the theme's meaning is not outstanding, so that the film misses the door and makes it difficult to become a classic.
