Another scene that impressed me more is that two robots take the protagonist on the way to the base, resting around a bonfire in a cave. A male robot looked at the ancient human mural in the cave, and then threw the mask into the fire pit. This is a very interesting metaphor. Humans start a new era in the cave, and now the feng shui takes turns, it is the turn of the robot to start a new era of its own. The discarding of the mask shows the robot's determination to break free from the shackles of humans. Of course, the whole drama is very delicate and worthy of slow aftertaste. There are many scenes. It is a movie worth watching repeatedly. It is by no means comparable to the popcorn movie.
In short, this film basically conveys what the creator wants to express: the decline of mankind and the birth of a new era with robots as a group. The most commendable thing is that the expression of this theme does not involve emotions of fear. It regards robots as evil devil, expressing the sense of crisis that human beings are in a life and death situation, but a feeling of helplessness, showing a kind of acceptance. Human beings are also members of nature, and they will also be eliminated by nature and replaced by new species with magnanimity and calmness. The film obviously hopes to make viewers think and re-examine the relationship between humans and nature, rather than simply arouse the viewer's adrenaline secretion. Therefore, I really admire and appreciate the creators of this film, including the director, producer, and screenwriter. They see film as an art, to convey an idea, a new perspective. The value of this movie is far greater than that of popcorn movies that pursue sensory stimulation.
The only regrettable thing is that the climax of the whole show is not shocking enough, a little bland. The whole film is a chase scene, and it will be solved in a few minutes. It is still a broken car (the end, don't count on Cadillac), which saves money. The confrontation between the antagonist and the villain is also very simple. A line is spoken, and then a shot is fired while standing. The big boss falls and the whole play is over. There is no action scene, so you can save money. Of course, the scene is placed in the desert, and there is a pile of garbage everywhere, which saves money.
In the end, I ended up with the line that moved me the most: "You humans are just a bunch of monkeys, a bunch of violent monkeys."
