This is Shaun of Zombies

Well, never thought of that.
Maybe I should look up who the director and star are before I watch this film, so that I don't feel the same and strange about seeing such a story. When I first saw this movie, I thought it was "The Hangover", until the appearance of the inexplicable blue-blooded robot, and I was shocked: Oh ~ well, "Zombie Shaun", and then look down, hey, incredible, "Truman's" world" yo hey. After a long time of trouble, if I understand correctly, what this Edgar Wright director wants to say is the human right to freedom?
Let me marvel at the next actor first: Simon Pegg, the guy who wrote Shaun of Zombies with the director and then at the end of the world. If he himself is not such a personality, then his performance is too outstanding and three points. Compared with "Shaun of Zombies", this person is a person who has been tortured for a long time, buried in life, has not realized his ideals and ambitions, and has made his once most radiant self worse and worse, perhaps because of With his thin cheeks and tired eyes, the whole image and spirit is very close to the needs of the character, although until about twenty minutes into the film, most of the time he is chattering and it feels extremely noisy.
Okay, let's talk about the plot, I have to complain. When the director was young or until now, he is still dreaming of a few hooligans roaming the rivers and lakes together, and five cobblers roaming the streets together, which makes me vaguely I saw the "Hero's True Color"-like picture of the Hong Kong movie Pony Ma, but since this is the European and American world, the nature is naturally converted into a partner of friends. A very strange thing, it doesn't seem to be very prominent in Chinese movies or even in the real world. From my impressions of European and American movies, it seems that the more arrogant and arrogant young people in their teenage years, they ended up getting worse. Perhaps this stemmed from their always-favored spit spirit, or was it a counter-attack to the oppression or obscurity of their youthful depression? Anyway, this is the truth in this movie, but the reason why these old men choose to look back on their youth together is because the former leader initiated the dream of realizing their youth.
When I started to get impatient, Sean went to the toilet because of disagreement, because he was depressed and was looking for trouble with a strange young man, and the plot took a sharp turn. Shift to science fiction: Bluebloods! Ceramic man! Zombies! It makes people feel inexplicably hesitant. Isn't this the story of a few old young people who recalled the past and fought for the present? To be honest, these old young people were persuaded that it was a bit far-fetched to let the rotten people lead the way to realize their dreams. Later, after discovering the fact of the blue blood people, they still decided to finish the rest of the bar road. The logic of the decision is even more ridiculous, it doesn't make sense, who would go on just because the messy rotten people who have already passed their lives believe they don't know the facts they already know, anyway, the logic doesn't make sense to me. Well, maybe the requirements should not be high, and the logic can at least go on, right? Okay, let's go, completely open another version of zombies, you chase me to all kinds of roads, you chase me to hit all kinds of taverns, director, are you not tired of being a zombie all the time? In the end, the answer was finally given: aliens gradually occupied the human community for scientific experiments and gradually replaced real humans, and they were the loopholes accidentally made by the program... Who would have expected these big boys to return to their hometowns? According to the idea of ​​the aliens picking up communities anytime and anywhere, maybe they did not leave their city at that time, and they would also be replaced by the lost? Hey, in this way, what the director wants to say is to change his state and pursue his dream, otherwise he will be rigidified by the outdated life, that is, life needs reflection and change? In this way, the idea is great! Anyway, the plot continues to move forward, and the real world created by the completely imitated blank shell has only three people in the end resisting, this is so like "The World of Truman", but in the end Truman chose to step out of captivity His own studio, and the words of these three people actually caused the alien control system to collapse. Well, at least we have to have a happy ending in the end, right?
Maybe the director's own screenwriter is just his own ideas, but to be honest, it gives me the impression that this is still a hybrid movie with the essence of "Zombie Shaun". Reapplying the once-dark humour will only make it boring to repeat.
