jumping timeline

The third in 2012, exactly ten years after the second. The technology has improved a lot in the past 12 years, so the scenes are more spectacular and dazzling, and the special effects are far ahead of the first two films, but the old age of the starring cannot be recovered by technology.
Will Smith has maintained his figure for decades, contributing self-interested expressions and babbling nonsense. Dedication is dedicated enough, but he is really tired of it. Tommy Lee Jones is almost seventy, so no matter whether it is makeup, CG or Meitu Xiuxiu PS, he can't cover up his old state, action scenes are completely impossible, and even literary dramas are out of energy, so the young version K got Josh Blokhin. Blokhin didn't know much, but he didn't talk enough. His serious and rigid appearance was quite in line with young K, but his aura was not as good as Smith's.
It's been 12 years, so the screenwriter has also followed the trend and played a time-travel, subverting the timeline. First in the Moon Prison, Boris, who had been imprisoned for 40 years, had telescope eyes and could climb out of bone crabs, took the opportunity of visiting the prison to escape. He used a time machine to go back forty years ago to kill K who had arrested him. So everyone forgot the existence of K, only J still remembered. He also used a time machine to go back to 1969, when black people were discriminated against. After reacquainting with the young K, the two teamed up and successfully launched the defensive net to kill two Boris on the day of the Apollo moon landing.
Advances in technology are better visual enjoyment. At the beginning of his escape from prison, Boris used the method of gradually zooming out the camera to express the emptiness and loneliness of the moon, but it was a pity that the long-legged beauty was sucked away. Then there is the Chinese element that Hollywood movies like now, Chinese restaurants fighting alien monsters. You need to jump off the building to cross, and you can still see the prehistoric scenery. I don’t know if this setting will bring bad children. Head bowling can really think of it. The god-given prophet is a key figure, but being able to see into the future is a god-defying ability. The round motorcycle can fly and escape, which is a little more joyful and less exciting. The final steel frame battle has a lot less suspense. Using the time mechanism to make the villain's brutality become a joke is too easy.
In the end, wanting people to cherish the people around them is more in line with the theme of this movie. It looks like the next one will change the protagonist, so the story of J and K is practically over.
