Oblivion After Viewing

Another masterpiece by Tom, I gave it five stars after watching it. However, the overall rating of this movie is not very high, even on IMDB, it is only 7/10, which is only 3 and a half stars. I'm sorry, most people don't seem to understand it.

Given that the film has been out for a long time, it's impossible to talk about spoilers.

From a sci-fi point of view, Oblivion is not very good. Of course, the effect is quite in place: Director Joseph's other masterpiece is TRON, remember, the visual design is really good. Yes, I'm talking about the plot. Jack (Tom) and Victoria are work partners and life partners. They are left behind on Earth The last batch of human beings have a safe home above the clouds. They received missions from Battlestar Tat but were brainwashed before receiving the mission, for fear of being captured by the enemy and leaking information. Etc... The truth later is It was Jack and Victoria who were members of the Odyssey project, and later they were captured by the Tat of the alien intelligence Scavengers. Later, Scavengers defeated humans and used Jack and Victoria's clones to deal with the remaining humans.

This plot is for sci-fi fans It's not surprising at all and there are frequent loopholes: For example, Scavengers already have a lot of efficient killing machines: Drones. Seeing 3 Drones smash into the crypts of the human resistance army, I don't think Scavengers really need to do some brainwashing. The clone belts helped to add to the mess. It's true that some Drones shot down by the Rebels were repaired by the clone Jack, but mass-producing these machines doesn't seem like it should be difficult for an alien intelligence capable of defeating humans. It's okay. Are you coming to Dongguan to order?

But if you look at it from another angle, Jack and Victoria are just a microcosm of an ordinary family, with a job, a warm home, doing the tasks assigned by their superiors, not asking things that shouldn't be asked, and looking forward to the day they retire . So, how can one prove that one is not a replica of another? That is the question.

    Despite Andrea's superb acting skills, performing the sorrow of this woman living in "heaven", she still can't conceal the inaction of the first half. The action scenes did not add points, but instead highlighted the embarrassment caused by his struggle between art and business. Although the sincerity is gradually felt later, fantasy is always based on thought and spirit, not a fantasy, but the eagerness to return to the mainstream and the acting skills of the Bond girls really drag down the atmosphere.

Oblivion quotes

  • Jack Harper: Dream of us.

  • Jack Harper: I wonder, if I come to you, at night - in dreams, in the day - as memories. Do I haunt your hours the way you haunted mine? And I wonder if you see me, when you look at her.
