English literature major Nolan uses a Dylan Thomas poem as the film's invisible skeleton. This poem is repeated in the film and is arguably Dylan Thomas's most famous work "Don't Go Meekly Into That Good Night". It's strange to me that the vast majority of comments I've seen ignore this poem. Several images in the poem have counterparts in the film. Good nights, wise men, great waves, raging men, etc. Spectators can take their own seats.
After watching "Interstellar", I was somewhat disappointed. It was not a film that caught my eye. Although I can feel Nolan's seriousness and rigor throughout the whole story, seriousness and rigor can never replace talent. In the interstellar game with his predecessors, Nolan seemed powerless. "2001" and "Solaris" were still looking down at a high place, and even Zularsky's "Silver Planet" was in a higher position. It is a consensus that science fiction films are difficult to make. Otherwise, Chinese science fiction films will not only stay at such a young age as "The Atmosphere Disappears" and "Thunderbolt Beibei". Nolan has already climbed very high on this road. I think, with his talent, climbing here is probably the end.
I always think that even science fiction films must have a strong humanistic core, and films that simply show off stunts are not my thing, even if he reluctantly makes the story round. So, "Gravity" I'll only watch it once, and it's only on a tablet. If even science fiction films can't bring us to think, what is the need for them to exist?
The problem with "Interstellar" is just the opposite, it's sensational! Almost to the point of infatuation. Tears are not an essential element of sci-fi films. Great sci-fi films have conscious vigilance emotions. It’s not impossible to have emotions, but please don’t cry and wipe your tears, okay? In the vast and dark universe, surrounded by loneliness and cold, emotions are insignificant no matter what. I believe that all astronauts in reality are rational and sober. Only thinking and discernment can come in handy at critical moments. . Love is not the driving force at any time, the exploration of the unknown is. Nolan's use of love as a way to solve problems leads to the lack of objective rationality of the film. Although many Nolan fans believe that the film has no loopholes, under the analysis of stripping emotions, the most important turning point of the film is based on coincidences. Instead of choosing, to put it bluntly, the protagonist is lucky. The fuel is about to run out. In order to give Brand a ride, Cooper threw himself into the black hole, but who the hell would have thought that the black hole is the so-called five-dimensional space, and the resulting method of dealing with time Always reminds me of Doraemon. I always feel a kind of fatalism mixed in, similar to the Buddhist cycle of cause and effect. And the description of five-dimensional space reminds me of the novel "Flat State" published in 1884. To be honest, Nolan did not have any breakthroughs in this film. The method of creating climax is still his good cross-cutting. Murphy Yakita and Cooper's black hole are cross-cut together, and finally the tension and climax are superimposed. This part does It's pretty good, Hans Dimmer's music played a very good contrast, and the chair I made vibrated with it. But Nolan's shortcoming is that he has not allocated a good share of emotions. In order to create conflicts, Nolan, at the critical juncture of the end of the world, also makes Murphy, a top scientist, still wondering whether Cooper has abandoned her, and Cooper is in the human race. At the critical moment of life and death, I always want to go home, and always regret my actions for participating in the journey to save the destiny of mankind. What's more, they actually believe in Plan A and put great enthusiasm into it. This is not like the thinking of scientists at all. Will scientists ignore the cost, in the end of the world? Come on, it's impossible to get everyone on Earth onto a new planet, okay? If you have this ability, let alone the earth will not end up in the end of the world, and even the poor will not find one. Therefore, Old Brand is the wise man, and Plan B is feasible. In the end of the world where supplies are scarce, it is a bit reliable to take hundreds of thousands of sperm and eggs into space. And Plan A looks more like what politicians use to fool the common people. This emotional entanglement is more of a Hollywood version of Where's Daddy—the kind of melodrama that housewives love to watch, rather than the cornerstone of an ambitious sci-fi flick. but this
The movie isn't as flawless as Nolan's scumbag fans say. In a stall where only corn can grow at the end of the earth, how can there be beer for Cooper to drink leisurely. Nolan's account of the action scenes is also lacking in this film. The scene of the big wave and the fight with Matt Damon didn't feel like it should, and the astronaut who died in the big wave was a bit baffling. He just stood there waiting to die.
In general, the advantages and disadvantages of this film are equally outstanding. Although it is definitely not Nolan's worst work, it is far from the height of his best work. For someone like me who has been paying attention to him As a fan, I think he wasted a great opportunity.
In addition, the robot in the film is definitely a shining point, breaking through the previous design of robots by human beings, and it is very innovative.
