I heard about this drama a little when it first came out, and I heard that the ratings are very high, but I was not interested in the ordinary criminal investigation action movie style full of posters, but only this year I found out that the directors are the Wachowski sisters! Start chasing drama decisively! So fragrant!
This is the first drama I've seen that integrates the big elements of race/freedom/love/gender/courage/family/friendship/loneliness/international/soul into an eight-person synaesthesia. , However, the producer's starting point is so high, and the entry point is very subtle and natural. It is not an obscure word game, but all of them are daily and exciting scenes. Just looking at the setting, this Yuntu fan looks like an extension of the Wachowski sisters' soul imprint in Yuntu. The editing and shots are completely amazing, and the use of various shots transforms the roles of the eight people seamlessly, and there is no confusion in the plot of the characters because of the large number of characters. And each character can be described as meticulously crafted, representing the justice and wisdom of Will, representing the gender cognition and sexual orientation of Nomi, representing the racist struggle and optimism of Winton, representing the freedom and love of women The Kara of Jedi represents the goodness of Jedi counterattack and family meaning, Lito who breaks free from the shackles of the world, Riley who represents the connection and communication of the world, and Wolfgang who represents courage and fortitude. Each of them has its own meaning, but their thoughts and experiences are sometimes interlinked. They have experienced the betrayal or warmth of their families, the support of their lovers, and the struggle against life and secular standards. Because of synaesthesia, they fell to the bottom together, and they turned upside down, or mixed with joy and sorrow, but they were reminded that they were not alone. There are always worthy love and people who fight together. And the people who accompany them perfectly explain what it means to integrate the backing of family, friends, supporters, and it is these that make everyone gentle and lovely.
Each role has a unique role, the black boy Winton is in charge of drag racing, Shan/Wolfgang/Will is the output team fighting/firearms/lock-picking/reconnaissance, Lito is in charge of acting, and Kara is the biochemical weapon and medicine Take responsibility, Nomi is responsible for hacking technology, Riley is responsible for routers, and at the same time, the eight of them will go to Shan to find courage when they are weak. Will provides the intellectual core and protection for the whole team, Lito is the source of happiness, Carla is super soothing, and Riley, the soul linker. A big family full of strength and love.
Every actor also contributed a great performance, whether it was Nomi, who is transgender, Lito, who is straight but plays gay (he is super cute!) and who is curvy but plays the number one straight man. Will...everyone is amazing!
The director of this drama traveled to four continents, 13 countries, and 16 cities to shoot, destroy the Mercedes-Benz and blow up the plane, and after the group battle, the group P, and the Eiffel party (why rhyme)
The rhythm of the first season is relatively slow, because it mainly describes the life trajectories of the eight protagonists and the gradual progress of the beginning of synaesthesia. The fourth episode begins to link, and then develops steadily. The second season ends at a faster pace, and the final chapter of the third season ends directly.
I regret that the show was cut because of its excessive budget (one episode/9 million), but fortunately there are still the Wachowski sisters who have not stopped writing the script and Netflix who is willing to give fans the ending song. Although it ended in a hurry, it really deserves to be a divine drama. (I hope one day I can make a fortune and I can invest 100 million to continue shooting!)
There are really too many things in this drama, and it expresses a lot of peculiar values, outlook on life and world outlook, not all of which are in line with moral norms, so the audience should not draw dungeons as prisons, this drama is not entangled in a certain point , but it is expressed for a broader theme, so it does not affect people's broadening of their ideas. I believe that in the next ten years or less, more people will understand the tolerance of this show, what it is about. Some of the ideas expounded are bound to be the light of future freedom.
If all the feelings lead to a broader point, there is nothing more than the human-to-human link that exists between various themes. After the play ended, the preface to "A Brief History of Time" echoed in my head:
If time will one day flow backward,
Or whether there are ultimate limits to what humans can know.
What is the smallest piece of matter.
Why we remember the past and not the future.
And why there is a universe.
It is the connection that makes the vast universe traceable, which is why the universe exists :)
