'Super 8': The Ultimate Wrap-Up of Spielberg's Films

Destin 2022-04-19 09:01:26

When a group of children were filming their own film, they accidentally filmed a train attack, almost lost their lives, and even discovered a shocking mystery-monster aliens. But it is a pity that in the first half of the episode, apart from being able to see two alien hairs flashing in an instant, it is basically impossible to see whether it is a human or a ghost. After spending more than an hour of being deceived with nostalgia, I finally realized that the huge man-eating beast was an alien creature that could not return home. Of course, the ending was happy, the laughter was cheering, the aliens found their mother, and the children returned to their father happily. In short, this film is a hybrid of "ET Aliens" and "Cloverfield Files".

Spielberg and Abrams jointly used the Super 8 camera to lead everyone to miss their "childhood past", which can be considered to be in line with the current era of nostalgia. Whether singing or acting, filming or watching, sitting together and having a good time with memories, who says it is not a kind of happiness. From the atmosphere of "Jaws", to the plot of "Encounter of the Third Kind" and "Alien", to the disaster scene of "Schindler's List"-style evacuation, to the kind of "Saving Private Ryan" The friendship that cannot be missed, and then to the "World War"-style army scene... The whole film is constantly flashing back in all Spielberg's films, recalling the classic light of each scene.

If this is a tribute to Spielberg's film, it would be better to say that it is a retrospective summary of Spielberg. The meticulous preparation before the film is paving the way for the new director of DreamWorks. It's a shame, this will be the last madness of Spielberg's style. Because from now on, this film will become a concluding "documentary" commemorating all Spielberg's films, and "Spielberg" will also become a symbol to be added to various missed labels, and it will become a symbol that will never be forgotten. lost memory.

    The beginning of a sci-fi story is always that the alien ship is broken

    To be honest, it was a bit interesting at first, but the more you go on, the more ridiculous it gets. At the end, the whole thing is nonsense. Since the aliens can eat people, then the sheriff who was first caught was not eaten? Moreover, as soon as the two children appeared, these people woke up. When they woke up, they were alive and well. They didn't look like people who had been hung upside down for several days.
