Just one word

A work of conscience, it exceeded my expectations for it. Although there are loopholes in the plot, the flaws do not hide the flaws. The movie itself has many excellent highlights.
The characters of the characters are distinct. There are 8 people on the spaceship. If you add the captain of the spaceship No. 1, there are 9 people in total. In the end, 0 people survived. The way of death for each person is different, but they all correspond to their own characteristics. But a distinctive character also means a single character, a basic stereotype, and no surprising cross-border behavior in the role. The acting skills of the actors are very online, but I personally think that Chris Evans is the best, and the character of Mace is also more lovable, loyal and upright, put the completion of the task before any personal interests, and finally jumped into the cooling tank to repair the equipment and freeze to death The scene was shocking. Starring Cillian Murphy as the physicist Capa. Actually, I personally don't like this actor very much. The appearance is not my type, but I don't deny his acting skills; the scenes with him are very psychedelic, especially with the captain of the No. 1 spaceship. The picture that appeared together just made me dizzy. There's another character that really stood out to me, Cliff Curtis's psychiatrist Cyril. He likes to sit in the observation room and observe the sun. When Captain died, Cyril shouted and asked him what he saw. When Cyril voluntarily sacrificed himself, he chose what he liked best. way to meet death - self-immolation with the heat of the sun. It is the closest to philosophy among all the characters.
While ensuring strong sci-fi, the movie also incorporates other elements, plot, thriller, suspense, and even religion. By the way, it discusses human nature and mixes styles. The director's way of expressing his thoughts is indeed soft and silent, and there are some interesting details in the movie. For example, Capa and Mace had a fight at the beginning, and then the two reconciled, and Mace indirectly saved Capa's life; but then the two fought again, echoing back and forth. Also, when I boarded Spaceship 1, when the flashlight shone through the camera, a photo of the crew of Spaceship 1 flashed by, and I thought I was dazzled.
The soundtrack of the film is also commendable, so low-key that you think it doesn't exist, but whenever there is a turning point or a sensational place, it will come out to remind you hhh (in some parts I thought I was watching Interstellar). Unlike the soundtrack of some movies, it either makes trouble when it shouldn't come out, or it steals the limelight from the movie itself.
As said at the beginning, the story itself has some loopholes and shortcomings. For example, the appearance of the captain of Spaceship 1 is a stroke of genius, but the reason for his appearance and the motives for his actions (including what happened on Spaceship 1) are not explained in the movie. Religion is mentioned, and only a few words are mentioned. It might seem rather fancy. In addition, the switching of some pictures is also a bit abrupt, thinking that it wants to express a certain meaning, but the result is abrupt.

In general, what the director wants to express can basically be presented, and the logic of the film is relatively clear. And the picture is so beautiful that it is suffocating, and the visual effect is extremely shocking, which belongs to the kind of movie that is suitable for watching several times.
