I watched a video of a lecture given by Master Shengyan of Fagushan in Taiwan before his death. Someone asked him if he had any specific ways to stay away from worries and calm his mind. He said yes, "Close your eyes, count your breaths, and quietly experience the process of inhaling air from your nose into your chest, and then exhaling it." The following person said: "How common is breathing? Everyone knows how to experience it. What about it?" Master Shengyan smiled and replied: "It is very common, but as a person, breathing is the most wonderful thing. If you slowly experience it, you will enjoy breathing." After

watching "Deathing Abyss", I The first thing that comes to mind is this. At first, I felt a little bit off, but then I thought about a movie about cave diving, if the audience will have the idea of ​​cherishing their breath after watching it, this film should be in place.

"Death Abyss" was produced by James Cameron. Cameron has always loved diving, and when he was shooting the famous "The Abyss" in his early years, he almost drowned in an artificial reservoir. Coupled with his instinct to explore the unknown, the subject of "Death Abyss" naturally went to his liking. These fun things drove him not just to name it, but to participate in the production in a solid manner.

We can use the standard to measure Cameron’s works to measure "Death of Destiny". From the 3D effect alone, we get the true story. It is not an exaggeration to say that this film should be the best introduced blockbuster with the best 3D effect after "Avatar". . According to previous imagination, such a subject with few action scenes seems not to be used for 3D rendering, but after seeing it, you will find that the effect is beyond imagination. The spectacles in the cave, such as the alien world, are presented in a clear 3D picture. It is immersive. The realistic effect of the shot of the super cave just appeared on the scene makes the body lean back. In the deep and huge cave, the human body is extremely small, and the nearly vertical angle of view makes the viewer feel obsessed. The sense of swallowing. Then you can't help but follow in the footsteps of the character, traversing the turbulent torrents like a meat grinder, floating in the wide and endless amber-like quiet water bottom, sometimes tight and dizzy, and sometimes comfortable. It is worth mentioning that not only these magnificent scenes have excellent 3D effects, but also ordinary scenes without cutting corners. The lens of a vegetable market, the lens in the office, and the depth of field are very good, compared with the recent ones. 3D blockbuster movies have to be a notch higher.

Of course, film is an art of storytelling, and no matter how good the hardware technology is, it can only be the icing on the cake. The index of the story of "Deathing Abyss" is definitely not cheap. The film is adapted from real events, and the screenwriter is very clever to make a rich dramatic design of the story on the basis of reality. In such a special confined space, morals and laws can no longer be touched, only cruel humanity is here to complete the life and death Survival battle. Although the routines adopted by similar themes are similar, but "Deathing Abyss" is better than the rich details, these rich details highlight the personality of each character is extremely vivid, so the story is not boring at all, the growth and development of each character Being eliminated will touch your emotional line. The film is divided into two lines to tell the story. The main line is the team and the auxiliary line is the relationship between father and son. Finally, the two are merged. You know what the final ending of the film is, but a few ingenious beginnings and transitions will still make you thrilling. But from this link, several recent domestic works of the same genre are compared with each other.

If you go deeper, after you walk out of the movie theater, you may still think of other miscellaneous problems. For example, the father in the film was mocked and despised by his son at first, and he knew that he had not fulfilled his responsibilities as a father. But the love for his son has never been extinguished at any time. In such a special environment, his entire motivation is to save his son. My father has a very touching sentence: "I know that I am not a qualified father and husband. There are too many things I can't do, so I love this underground, because here I can find myself (to the effect)." And the son finally did. After completing the self-growth, the father and son re-knowed each other. The other is about death. Death is terrible, but everyone has to experience it. When death is suddenly approaching, will you present a completely different version of yourself? Is that self the most true self ever?

Well, let's go back to the beginning, enjoy life, and breathe.
