It's just that time is interesting

The film also involves time travel, which is not only a popular theme, but also an eternal classic theme of science fiction works, but it depends on the level of the creator. The film also raises the most head-scratching and frustrating questions and assumptions in time travel, such as: If I went back ten years ago, found me at that time, and shot him down, would I? So it disappears? Or if I travel to the future, find me ten years later, and collapse myself in front of him, will he disappear with the sound of "piu"? It is not that I can't get through with myself, but I want to express the proposition of time and space travel directly, that is, if we can travel through time and space, whether we can change our history.
Therefore, although this film is a new film, it is not novel in terms of subject matter and creativity. I watch this film for three reasons, one is that there are two male protagonists, the other is that there is no other film that attracts me more, and the third is that it is a group-buying film Tickets are about to expire.
To be honest, I really liked Bruce Willis, unlike other tough guy actors, I always thought he had a playful cynicism about him, especially when he was talking with his mouth crooked and grinning, when he appeared in In "Friends", I felt that this dude found a way for himself again. However, in this film, he is not comedy at all, and it is also very tragic. He should belong to the kind of character who will do anything to seek revenge after his family is destroyed. Overall, he feels quite satisfactory, and there is no breakthrough. He should still seek a transformation.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt seems to be very popular recently, and seems to be nicknamed Joseph, but I have seen only three of his films - "Inception", "Batman: 3" and this "Circle" The messenger", to be honest, this film should be regarded as the worst of the three. Most of the time in the film, he acts like a MV, coolly posing and walking, maybe the plot is relatively simple, The action scenes are also very rough, so there is not much room for him to play.
On the contrary, the little boy actor in the film is a bit interesting, with a little gloom and coolness of a little adult, it seems that he should be a good child star blank. As for Xu Qing and the Chinese scenes in the movie, I can only use four words to describe them - a glimpse of the light. It feels like a dispensable publicity stunt added by the producers in order to capture the box office in the Chinese market.
Again, I don’t know if it’s a problem with the movie theater I chose, or the filmmakers did it deliberately. The sound effects in the movie are too loud, especially the sound effects of the firearms, which are a bit harsh.
Last but not least, I am afraid that the same theme will continue to be put on the big screen repeatedly in the future. It is because the proposition of time is so interesting. If you have a relationship with time, you will find that you will never be able to tell, so time is very interesting.

    It's not refreshing, but the memory of seeing it is very deep. . . I think I foresee the future, if I can’t have a grander construction and narrative, yes, how can I say, I’m very helpless

    At one point I thought to myself, oh, bad film. But at the end, I can recommend a movie that feels so strange. It is also fun to mix with the rhythm of the family melodrama from time to time. Action scenes sometimes have anti-type comedy effects. I like the setting of this part of the farm, a bit of Tarantino. It might be because of the French farm of the shameless bastard.
