This is also a movie that makes me feel intimidated by the name and feel very far away from myself. At first glance, I thought it was about the relationship between man and nature, and the theme was environmental protection or disasters.
Unexpectedly, it is also a story set in an alternate setting, making all women infertile, leading to the imminent extinction of mankind. The part that feels well-designed is that the introduction doesn't directly output opinions and settings to you, but rather draws in interest through the death of one of the "youngest people on the planet" and brings in the story.
The transformation of the male protagonist is actually quite obvious. From the beginning of the indifference and numbness of the petty citizens, the philistine and mercenary, to the gradual passage of the female protagonist, the memories in the dialogue make people understand that he was not such a person from the beginning. He was also a warm-blooded, up-and-coming, high-spirited young man whose essence of kindness has never changed. It's just that the death of the child has hit him too hard, and the changes in the earth have also pushed people to a desperate situation step by step, and he has become what he is now. However, when his wife, the leader of the organization, was murdered, he learned that refugee Ji was pregnant, and he turned from a small person to a hero step by step. The rhythm of the film is fast for me, and the plot development is interlocking and very close. When fleeing, the characters die, but they are all for a new life.
The deepest impression is that Theo went to the building where the two armies were fighting to find Ji and the baby, and when he heard the baby's cry, everyone, whether refugees or soldiers, silently extended to this long-disappeared new life. With their eager hands, they all stared at her, yearned for her, and even spread word of mouth to stop the exchange of fire. "I thought this was supposed to be peaceful." Theo's idea was finally confirmed. Humans are small and selfish, but when they face a huge disaster and problem together, all of them become a tight group. They have no identity, no nationality, no position. They have only one name, and that is, human. This child is not only Ji's child, but the common child of the entire human race, the hope of all human beings.
The name "TOMMORW", tomorrow, is really a beautiful meaning. Just like God, everyone may not know whether he really exists or not. The human planning organization is also a product of this may or may not exist, but we are willing to believe it, like we believe that the sun will rise as usual tomorrow, it really exists. write.
