When I first watched it, I thought it was just an alien sci-fi movie or a disaster movie, but I watched it with trepidation, until I saw two-thirds of it, and then I was in a trance and felt that it was actually a drama packaged in a sci-fi movie. It just so happened that I learned Introduction to Linguistics this semester. The theory put forward in the section on translating alien languages ​​is very interesting. Will learning different languages ​​change the way people think?

I thought the timeline was the death of the heroine's child - being taken by the army - communicating with aliens - seeing my past - getting to know the hero, until the end, when she was lying on the back of the front seat all the way because she didn't wear her eyes The companion leaned down and said softly, "Then it's not very painful for her to live." With the slowly rising subtitles at the end, he suddenly realized that the correct sequence is that the heroine communicates with the aliens, and foresees his future in the process. , but still married and had children with the male protagonist. The final voice-over was stunned and a little tearful, echoing a very touching sentence in the film, to the effect that even if I knew the ending, I still chose to embrace every moment.

The lens language is very beautiful. I didn’t understand why it wasn’t 3D at the beginning. At the end, I was glad that it wasn’t 3D. I could enjoy it quietly with the most comfortable feeling without being disturbed by glasses and film effects to the greatest extent. The director has the ability to control the rhythm of the film.

Confess the tip of the heroine's nose, it's so pretty.
