Let's talk about the plot first.
===================The following is for reference =========================
The film is adapted from a picture book The novel "Oblivion", the story of the novel was conceived by Joseph Kozinski himself, the protagonist of the story is a soldier assigned to perform a patrol mission on a distant planet, he encounters a kind of In the process of interacting with a ferocious alien race and a beautiful woman stranded by a crashed spaceship, the soldier begins to question his worldview.
In 2015, the "Odyssey" spacecraft launched by humans arrived at the first base under construction on Mars. The sky was unpredictable. During the flight, the spacecraft encountered a huge white cube that suddenly appeared. From then on, the "Odyssey" and its crew members died. no audio...
In 2045, the earth has already changed beyond recognition, the remains of human cities are covered by black sand dunes, and various peculiar geological formations are supernatural scenes. It turned out that the white cube that suddenly appeared in the past was an invention of aliens, in order to find a suitable planet and transform it into an environment suitable for their survival. The current appearance of the earth is the credit of this "white cube". However, the aliens who invented the "white cube" have been extinct for a long time, and they will never come to the earth, leaving the "white cube" running in the orbit of the earth. The "White Cube" tried to make up for the damage it caused to the earth, so it used clones to re-prosper the population of the earth, and the original shape of these clones was the crew of the "Odyssey" spacecraft it captured. Among these clones is a clone named Jak (Tom Cruise), a repairman for a drone patrol aircraft, who has a partner named Vika (Andrea). Riseborough), who specializes in scanning damaged drone patrol aircraft and monitoring the movements of "scavengers", a savage alien species that has come to Earth. One day Jacques saw a ball of fire falling from the sky. It was an escape pod, and inside was a female astronaut named "Julia Kanan" (Olga Kurylenko). Jacques rescued Julia from the "scavenger". And took her back to the residence of herself and her peers - the soaring "Skyscraper Tower".
After Julia woke up, she told her story. It turned out that she was the crew member of the "Odyssey" spacecraft. She escaped before the "Odyssey" was captured by the "White Cube" and became the only surviving crew member on the spacecraft. The original is Julia's lover! Under the influence of genes hidden in his body, Jacques makes a decision he could never imagine before, and takes Julia on a journey of self-discovery, which may have disastrous consequences for both of them...
==== ===================================================== ===== After
reading this reference, it is not difficult to explain why the ultimate BOSS is a big triangle. Also known as "White Cube", it turned out to be a machine invented by aliens to find and transform a place suitable for them to live. And the inventor is no longer there.
The director of the film is also the author of the novel, which is gratifying.
In the movie, the male protagonist, Jak, discovered by chance that the "alien" he thought was actually the earthlings themselves, and began to shake his worldview. After that, he slowly regained his memory, re-acquainted his wife, met an identical clone, and realized that he was just one of many clones - No. 49, the so-called patrol mission is just a conspiracy . After that, embark on the road to destroy this conspiracy, and sacrifice.
Fortunately, it is a sci-fi film, so the male protagonist can still have a happy ending if he sacrifices. The surviving female protagonist meets the clone 52 and can continue their love in their previous life, before and after death. This may be the fate of the legend, or it may be the thing called hope.
Personally, I like the subversion of Jak's worldview and the continued love of the heroine and clone 52.
Let's talk about the original sound OST
=========================================== =
Generally speaking, surreal movies have the best fusion of music and sound, and they also test the creator's creative ideas.
Anthony Gonzalez, M.8.3 and Joseph Trapanese are the main creators of the original soundtrack of "Lost War". Joseph Trapanese is good at the combination of classical music and electronic music, making the music full of technology without lack of classical majestic momentum.
===================================================== ===============
I always think that a good movie's plot is the first, the music is the second, and the actors' acting pictures are the third.
A good movie should have a storyline and be able to justify it. On the next level, there will be twists and turns, or there will be twists and turns, or you will be able to see the truth in the plain, providing entertainment for the senses. If you go to a higher level, it is on the basis of the story. There is still an aftertaste of the story that has been told for three days. It shocks the viewers from the heart. . At the same time, music is the most contagious tool, which is why "Moulin Rouge" and "Chicago" can be so pleasing to the audience. If the music can't keep up, there will be a lot of pale pictures, even if it is beautiful, it is easy to make people feel blank. , the ears are too quiet. Especially for someone who is sensitive to sound like me, the contagiousness of music can make me lose my mind, haha.
The music of Forsaken War is really majestic and magnificent. The combination of classical music and electronic music adds awe-inspiring power and charm to this desolate planet left after the war. With this in mind, we can forgive "The Lost" for its scientific appearance as a romantic film, as well as the logical loopholes pointed out by professional readers.
PS, Brother Ah Tang is getting more and more handsome~ I feel old and more flavorful~
