Chicken ribs

Neil Blomkamp’s "The Ninth District" has caused a lot of horror. The movie uses the shell of science fiction to criticize reality, subverts the image of aliens, and imitates the documentary style. They all impressed the audience. , It was a pleasant surprise. "Elysium" continues Blomkamp's slum aesthetics, and also makes a fuss about identity differences (from race to class), and the sense of science fiction is also higher than that of "The Ninth District". The film also includes big-name stars such as Matt Damon and Judy Foster, which should have been full of highlights. However, "Elysium" may hardly trigger a phenomenon-level topic like "District Nine" because There are too many flaws in the movie. After watching it, people frequently ask: What does the director want to do... Not to mention the clumsy introduction and childhood flashbacks, not to mention the vulgar scenes of saving mother and daughter, not to mention the protagonist's innocence When it comes to the silly pursuit of life, the way "Elysium Space" looks at and solves problems seems too rash, superficial and naive. The film drew a stab at human society, and the sky is divided into two. As for why, what great turmoil occurred before 2154, the film does not say. Anyway, such a hard setting is put on, and you have to accept it if you don't accept it. Then, the protagonist must risk self-sacrifice to save the poor, but can the problem be solved by opening the bliss space to the poor? The answer is obviously no. At the end, children who resemble NGO promotional videos run to embrace tomorrow, which is simply unbearable. I really think that by overthrowing the evil capitalism, socialism can save all mankind. This is not a clever political aspiration and a human declaration, but a sticky leftist. The hard-made love of the common people makes this movie even more preaching and cheap. Speaking of slum aesthetics, they have turned "Elysium" into a colander. The medical level of Bliss Space is already close to heaven. Humans can almost live forever. Intelligent robots run around everywhere, but the humans living in it are disgusting upper-class appearances. The director can't wait to make the audience associate with reality. On the contrary, there are almost no decent buildings in the large slums. No matter how bad the earth is, it will not look like the third world after such a carpet bombing. And just such a high-tech, high-concept bliss space, it made several smuggling spacecraft into an unmanned land, like a chicken rib floating in outer space. As for the rich with laughter and the poor with eyesight, repeatedly showing the omnipotent medical machine, that is simply pointing fingers at the American health care reform. Not to mention whether the viewpoints of "Elysium Space" can stand up, this kind of irony itself is not necessarily clever. There is no other reason, the reason is too clear, I can’t wait for it to be straightforward Then he jumped out to tell the audience that so and so did wrong, turned their backs on the people, and moved against the trend of history. The film is full of all kinds of bizarre, unpleasant injuries, like a four-person squad of terrorists firing a cannon, the important person’s spacecraft will fall; the technology is so advanced, it is necessary to connect the data cable to the USB port; as for the one in the head The garbled data, and there is no explanation below, the protagonist has really become a human USB flash drive, I really don't know what the screenwriter thinks. The villain's face is vague (upper class), and as a result, an irrelevant agent is used as the opponent; the protagonist's body has undergone a major transformation, and that copycat mecha can only be described as shameless, even inferior to "The Ninth District". The ending climax fight, the scene is boring and boring, it is better to let Matt Damon go to the rugby game. You know, this is a future sci-fi world, and using these brute forces, grenades, and cold weapons is not enough to be admirable, it's too much artillery. What is even more absurd is that after arriving in the bliss space, the powerful robot troop disappeared unexpectedly, and a group of people played hide-and-seek in a heavily guarded place as if they were in an uninhabited state. If the existence of the slums makes "The Ninth District" exude a strong taste, then the lingering thinking of the slums simply ruined "Elysium." The slums constrain the director's hands and feet, making the whole movie small, and exuding the contemporary illusion of terrorist destruction, making the originally meagre sense of science fiction even more messed up. To put it bluntly, the spiritual theme of "Elysium Space" is to deceive the children's fantasy level-it is the protagonist's play when he was a child, imagining that in the Elysium, all problems will be solved: there is no poverty, no more diseases, people People are well-off. If the problem of human society is really only a simple distinction between the poor and the rich, or to break the difference between the lower and the upper, then the troubles in this world are too simple. So at the end, I really don’t think "Elysium" is a science fiction film. It gives pointers to reality and only regards science fiction as an empty shell. It is really regrettable that it is empty and empty. I don't object to creators making similar expressions, but it's really not clever. 【Sohu】The protagonist's body has undergone a major transformation, and that copycat mecha can only be described as shame, even inferior to "The Ninth District".

    Is this the rhythm for ordinary people to pretend to be Iron Man or Steel Fist? There are also EMS advertisements inside. The script is average, and the villain has no characteristics, just look at it.

    Finally watched a science fiction with a little plot. Although there is no logic at all to the end of the plot. Other than the shaking of the screen, I didn't see anything special. If it is digital shooting, the color processing on the earth part is pretty good.

Elysium quotes

  • Dr. Faizel: Frey, you know, we've done everything we could to help your daughter. I had a meeting today with the board and they recommend we send her home with you.

    Frey: How can I work here and leave her at home? You know, it can happen any time, Dr. Faizel.

    Dr. Faizel: I know. If she has another seizure, of course bring her back to the ward, of course. But until then, she's discharged. This isn't Elysium. We can't just heal her.

  • Delacourt: I'm not interested in your little ideas. I'm interested in something much larger. This habitat is dying. There is a political sickness inside of it. A tumor that needs to be removed. You and your company are in need of revenue... that is dying up. So... you built the torus. Can you override the servers and place a new president in power?

    John Carlyle: A coup?... Are you suggesting a coup?

    Delacourt: Is it possible?

    John Carlyle: I could write a reboot sequence and shut down the entire system. And at that point... you could encode a new president, yes.

    Delacourt: Then that is what you will do. And you will have your contract secured for the next 200 years. Missile defense batteries, droids. Everything we need to protect our liberty. All guaranteed, of course, by your new president.
