Avatar is more mythical and futuristic in the setting of pictures and characters.
The rise of the Planet of the Apes may be because it was adapted from the old movie Planet of the Apes, and the protagonist is an orangutan who has nothing to do with beauty. Therefore, compared with the beauty, magic and grandeur of Avatar, the rise of the Planet of the Apes is more ferocious and the plot is more savage. .
While watching the film, I couldn't help but ask if Calfer, whose husband was on the night shift and had to stand alone in the vacant room, would be afraid tonight.
Even a conservationist like me has to admit that the orangutans on the rise of the Planet of the Apes really make me sick to my stomach.
Forgive my bluntness, but in the first half of the film, I didn't understand what themes the director and screenwriter wanted to show at all.
With the awakening of Caesar's wildness, the director's intentions gradually unfolded in front of my eyes - it is indeed in the same vein as Avatar - but Avatar Pearl Jade is in front, and the rise of the Planet of the Apes is difficult to break through.
Humans rely too much on technology and are too greedy, so they created orangutans like Caesar.
Animals have human nature, just as human beings are alienated into working machines.
Everything has its own nature, and when it is distorted, it will lead to tragedy.
This is the case with Caesar. Even in early childhood, it showed an amazing growth rate and possessed an intelligence that surpassed that of human children of the same age, but as it grew older, it began to wonder where it belonged. I noticed that Caesar was frowning, looking sad, and bewildered almost throughout the film.
When it wears a T-shirt and jeans but has a rope around its neck, when it has human thinking and behavioral habits, is it a human or an orangutan...or...a monster?
Especially when it learned that its mother died in a drug experiment, and it was also affected by the experiment, it showed an indescribable expression of pain on its face - its dependence on humans began to collapse.
At the same time, the fear and ugliness of human beings come to it together, people hate its extraordinary wisdom, people fear its wild power, people can only accept animal experiments for technological progress and wealth creation, but they cannot Tolerate test items beyond what they imagined.
So humans chased and blocked Caesar, and Caesar became a caged thing.
In the primate shelter, Caesar experienced being abused by the caretakers and being ostracized by his fellow orangutans. Caesar finally understood what he wanted.
Will excitedly bought the manager and wanted to take Caesar home, but Caesar stared coldly at the humans who had raised him, and slowly closed the iron door of the cage—the iron door grunted heavily, firmly It announced Caesar's decision to completely break with Will and humanity.
The goal of Caesar's counterattack is actually very simple, it just wants to rescue its own kind, and then escape back to the red pine forest.
But even such a simple request cannot be accepted by humans-human beings are used to manipulating the world, so how can they accept the unpredictable resistance of a group of beasts?
Thus, the Great Ape War broke out.
On the bridge leading to the red pine forest, human beings carrying long guns and short cannons tried to intercept the huge orangutan team on the bridge. "Equal sign, but it is this desperate desire to go home, which reflects the hateful and hateful human beings.
The greed of human beings constantly erodes the lives of other creatures, and even the living space of other creatures is also encroached upon.
Seeing this, I couldn't help but replay the whole story in my head. If Will's father hadn't had Alzheimer's, he wouldn't have been so eager and persistent in developing new drugs, the chimps wouldn't have been sent to the labs of pharmaceutical companies, and the Great Ape War wouldn't have erupted.
However, how can life have ifs? How can life be separated from birth, old age, sickness and death? Human greed is manifested in the insatiable greed for money and the fantasy of health and longevity, and is unwilling to accept the decline and end of life. As a result, all kinds of biotechnology came into being, but they did not know that while regaining health, more terrible foreshadowings were laid.
In fact, Caesar's love for human beings is profound. He saved one life after another in the Great Ape War. When he helped him, did he think of Will taking care of him since he was a child?
It is an intelligent orangutan who can communicate with humans through sign language and eyesight.
But since when has its heart been unable to be heard by humans? Forcing it to express its inner indignation with a roaring "no" all its life - this "no" must be a message that all creatures other than humans have always wanted to say but have been unable to convey to humans.
No! Stop destroying the environment!
No! Stop hurting animals!
No! Stop the scary experiment!
Once again, I'm starting to hate high tech - without it, there wouldn't be so many poisons in real life, and there wouldn't be any jokes about "slapping the Chinese and getting a periodic table of chemical elements" .
I think of a documentary I watched in the summer vacation, which introduced the fate of a gorilla who was experimented by humans. Although its story is not as tragic as the film, it seems to be the prototype of Caesar. Humans want to study whether orangutans can speak, so An expert couple adopted an orangutan as a child to take care of and nurture it. As it grows older, its wild awakening, its own cognition has also appeared sleepy, it has become irritable and irritable, even Start hurting expert couples. The expert couple was terrified of it and sent it elsewhere. After changing hands several times, the orangutan finally died of depression, with a lifespan much lower than that of its peers.
What a ridiculous experiment, since you want to know if gorillas can speak human language, why not train humans to speak bird language?
It was a ridiculous experiment, but it resulted in a tragic story.
