Spend a small amount of money to do big things

This will undoubtedly become an epoch-making film, and it is strange why only a few Chinese have seen it. Just like Philip. K. Dick's other novels ("Minority Report", "Fatal Reward"), behind the unconstrained science fiction, there are faint concerns about people coming to society, political systems, and technological progress. The director used live-action shooting and computerized CG special effects rendering in the later stage, which is a new exploration of film shooting technology.
In short, seeing such a film is first of all visually shocking. Although a lot of special effects are used, the investment in the film is not large, and the budget is only 8 million US dollars. Spending a small amount of money to do big things, the income of the film has basically achieved a breakeven. Of course, this is thanks to Keanu Reeves, Robert Downey Jr., and Woody Hudson for their dedication to avant-garde art, and without asking prices, they worked together to create such a masterpiece.
