Back then, when I was still in college, on a dark and windy night for a month, I was studying in the study room with my friends and wanted to watch a movie on a whim, so I found "This Man From Earth" on the Internet. Although I am not religious and a staunch atheist, it still gave me an experience that was enough to subvert the three views.
So, when I found out that the second part of this movie was finally at noon one day after taking a bath (?), I opened the movie with awe...
Well, if it wasn't for my concentration, I might have turned it off and called the police less than halfway through. It's really a "new era", that's right, it's so new that I can't bear to look directly at it, and I can only fast-forward and watch it with feelings.
The following contains serious spoilers!
Contains serious spoilers!
spoiler!
The male protagonist, John, who we started hanging up with, has become a background board. The whole film revolves around four college students who can't make a difference.
Girl A (don't want to go back to find their names, it's a torture for me to open this movie again) is a direct student of John's new girlfriend, A's female friend B has a crush on John, and their male friend C is a black man Brother, another male friend D, is a devout Christian. The characters are introduced. You said why there is no John, I said he is a background board, I probably know that he has lived for more than 14,000 years, and now he is a professor of a course for these students.
A and B, through clues plus guesswork and some online research, found that John was a primitive man who lived for more than 14,000 years in a non-science fiction novel written by a former professor, and told two C and D , ready to personally investigate how holy research Professor John is. D refuses to accept the setting of John. [After all, he is a devout believer, and we can't blame him for not having the spirit of exploration. 】
If the subsequent plot is based on exploration, discovery, showdown and then a little bit of information about John about this world or other immortality, then this movie will not be given 2 stars by me (1 star is still given because of the first film. of). But it completely went astray later, and began to develop into criminal investigation dramas! Or the kind of criminal process that criminal investigation dramas generally do not play. Hand spread out.
In order to investigate, the ABC three secretly infiltrated the home of John and his girlfriend, rummaging for evidence and taking pictures. [Well...Although I don't study law, I have also been influenced by "Today's Statement" for many years. Is this really not a private house invasion? Can't the police take care of them? Won't you teach bad kids? 】
Then they tried to contact various people who had contact with John's previous identity, and after getting feedback, they were more convinced that Professor John was the original person. ABC all wanted to talk to the teacher, then spread the word about him, build a new worship, and they helped him preach. 【? ? ? Children, your thinking is dangerous, it's a cult of personality, and, think with your toes, if your dear Professor John wants to hype like this, he'll change his identity every few years, What are you doing in hiding? Exercise your strong will? Test your abilities? Step back 10,000 steps, if he wants to publicize his story, how many talented people he has contacted over the years, why should he find a few of you, this is obviously what you want to be popular! snort! 】
After that, B seduced the professor on the grounds that we are all unacceptable and lonely people [...so...this is to prepare three of the professor's girlfriend and then take the position, and pull the professor into the water and let him go again Can't get a job as a teacher? Um? What brain circuit is this? Forget it, maybe I’m ignorant and ignorant…]
This also made the professor discover that his identity was exposed (so it sounds like a spy), so he immediately canceled all courses, dismissed his girlfriend, and wanted to fly away again. Of course, several students disagreed. After all, they still wanted to be popular, and they also contacted the author who wrote the book before to talk to the professor. They couldn't believe it! Anyway, a few of them made it to the professor's door to try to keep John. However, the man who was leaving couldn't stay...except shocking him. Yes, C, the black kid who didn't exist before, shocked the professor with a stun gun. The thorn is not exciting, the essence is not wonderful? After the electric shock, the professor knocked his head on the brick. The point is that the first reaction of the two boys was not to call the police or to call an ambulance. The reason is that since he has lived for so long, what kind of storm has he not seen before? But after a little argument, it was finally decided that D stayed and called an ambulance, and the three of them went to pick up the writer.
After that, the development of the plot was again beyond my acceptable range. D tied John to a chair in John's basement! Next, the sober professor and D had a debate that was neither intense nor exciting nor substantive, and finally D came to the conclusion that "since you are so eloquent, it must be either Jesus or the Antichrist. , then I have to stab you to verify what you are." [D classmate, are you serious? How did your reasoning ability get to college? In case your professor is with ordinary people, you are a murderer! 】
At this point, the only motivation for me to keep watching is to see what other moths can come out of the back.
Sure enough, the prediction came true. When ABC received the author's visit to John's place, the place was already empty, leaving bloodstains from the courtyard to the basement, a large pool of bloodstains in the basement and a chair that fell down with duct tape. . Seriously, shouldn't a normal person's first reaction to see such a scene be to call the police? However, how can our pig's feet be ordinary people? When the author proposed to call the police, A roared: we can't call the police, otherwise our future will be over, and the university will have no game! 【EXO? Human life is at stake, don't you have any points for yourself? 】
I'm tired of complaining, but at the end I won't complain anymore, I'm really tired.
It is said that 3 is still to be shot. Really, please let the screenwriter have a long snack, don't continue to smash the sign of 1, please.
