Rare feminist works

1. The female role is an absolute role, and her motivations and issues are not about men, which is very rare. At the same time, because it is a female protagonist, there is obviously a scene of hepeat and hejack, which was 20 years ago.

2. The super-multi-center composition is used to further strengthen the core position of the character; the zoomed-out camera position is repeatedly used, which is in line with the theme of the film x

3. Although the edges of the green button are relatively poor (the edge highlights are added to cover up), the VFX of other parts is not outdated at all, especially the various small details at the beginning of the film and during transmission (such as the two faces of Ellie, The special effects on Voldemort's face at the end of HP1 didn't feel as good as what was done here). Che's footage of President Clinton was so well edited that it almost seemed real. Later, it was rarely seen in Hollywood that the president's speech was directly cut and used. It can be said that there is no one before and no one to use it with such great fanfare in this film. I wonder if AI-generated presidential speeches will become film material in the future.

4. The whole film looks like NASA asked Hollywood to shoot a corporate promotional film and the other party was not satisfied, so Hollywood adjusted the story a little and drove the draft by itself. In the end, the topic actually went back to religion. Did the church secretly stuff undercover agents/money? The progress of the story is not big, but it is very dense. It feels better if it can be controlled within 120 minutes.

5. Matthew is a humanoid self-propelled gun that emits hormones. He feels hot across the screen; but Ellie's father is more handsome. His legs are so long and he looks loyal and he wants to raise one.

We feel that U.S. policy in this matter wants to be extremely conservative - if there's any chance of danger or threat to our way of life perhaps the message and its contents should simply be disregarded.
