However, I am particularly disappointed with the heroine, and have an irrational and extraordinary fanaticism about space, and have problems with logic and eloquence, both of which are contrary to the academic workers I know.
I have never seen an academic who is blocked by a few laymen with special layman's questions. They usually despise you with special academic expressions, and then you have to admit your ignorance and ask the other party to say something. Simpler.
Like the heroine, once she is questioned, she immediately mobilizes all her emotions, and says a bunch of incoherent things that are completely unconvincing. Trying to use this kind of divine logic to persuade others is really not like a scientist at all. She is more like a poet, a scientist imagined by literary and art workers. If the heroine played the role of a space fanatic, the fanaticism would have long since died out after so many years. And believe me, after a lot of science study and logic training, at least she can learn to control the frenzy with reason.
In addition to character building, there are also problems with the logic of many plots. The
White House scientific adviser has tried several times to grab credit. I doubt it would work, judging by the fact that he cut funding at the beginning and expressed his incomprehension of female lead research, he was not an expert in the field at all. It is useless to take credit for the White House meeting. No one will think that it is his credit. I believe that people who can participate in the White House meeting have enough IQ. The success of the female lead's research will gain great prestige in the academic world, and he has nothing to do with it, and the academic world is not vegetarian.
The decoding method of the drawings is too simple, but this is a movie from nearly 20 years ago, and it cannot
be blamed that the biggest motivation for him to build the machine should be lest other countries in the world will take the lead, instead of the heroine's painstaking persuasion. However, at that time the Soviet Union had disintegrated, China had not risen, and the United States was no longer invincible. This may be the reason why the competitive factor was directly ignored by the film.
In the same way, when the heroine thinks that she has experienced 18 hours instead of falling directly, the next step should be the appearance of the scientific community, various theoretical analysis and explanations, not the National Security Advisor who does not understand anything and holds a thousand-person meeting. The heroine is on trial. If the "trial" is successful, the United States will become a big fodder for overspending, spending 300 billion dollars to make a woman hallucinate. It should be the other way around. The whole world saw the heroine fall directly. The US National Security Adviser coerced and lured the heroine to claim that he had experienced 18 hours in a different time and space to show that the American people's money was not in vain.
After watching the three-body, I thought it was nothing more than that. But after watching the contact with time and space, I feel that it is far inferior to the three-body strategy in terms of the overall situation.
So to sum up, the strongest thought after watching it is that the male protagonist is very handsome.
