Only special effects makeup is worth admiring

There are a total of 6 stories, the specific plot arrangement and structure, and other film reviews have been written completely, so I don't want to continue.

But I always feel that this film that shows off its structure, traverses, and jumps back, excavates too little emotion in the story itself.

The first anti-slavery story, the interaction between Adam and the black sailor, is not enough, the traditional manor drama is very delicate;
the second same-sex true love musical, true love, where are you? ? In addition to the last cry, how much "Les Miserables" shadow do you leave to the audience?
The third female reporter roams the dragon's lair, suspenseful, exciting, and love blablabla that spans time and space. Before she sucks the taste, she kills the main character... Where the hell are you in suspense?
The fourth happy old ruffian leaps over the lunatic asylum. This should be hilarious, right? So....how many jokes are left for the audience? The jokes are too literary - that is, soft piapia like chewing wax,
the fifth clone and the revolutionary love of purebreds - well, in fact, I only think this part is quite plump, it may be Fei Douna's Eyeballs, always full of water droplets, so easy to understand emotions? But.... that immortal dialogue ability, the last few sentences before the execution, all have the same tone. I really doubt that it is because the lines are spoken in English, and the expression ability does not reach the original level....
Sixth A future water world, the world structure is not clear at all... The conflict and connection between the decaying civilization and the advanced civilization are not clearly explained at all = =||||

It really is in a limited time, so Complicated stories, so we can only click a little, and immediately "please go to the next step". Too bad = =
movie, no longer focus on satisfying the audience's emotional satisfaction, but only pursue "wonderful"?

In addition, I don't know if the method I opened is wrong. These stories all involve the struggle of "human rights". Whether whites and blacks are the same; or homosexuality cannot be denied because of sexual orientation; or corporate machines cannot be superior to ordinary people; or old people are placed under house arrest; and clones and purebreds have a choice of fate rights; the prophets and the people of the valley are equal in the face of disaster, and they all talk about "human rights".

Born as a human being, give everything for what you believe in. There are rules that must never be broken, and orders that must be broken, just for faith and love.

So positive... No wonder the American people desperately released such a novel that is so unsuitable for remaking into a movie...
You guys had a lot of fun, but as a movie watcher, it's really not fun at all Get up—because, I really think the movie is too superficial, so I can only buy novels and watch it slowly, sighing.
