    The lighting is peculiar, the props are set to be awesome, and in the era of science fiction without special effects, people are no longer "human" under infinitely large and infinitely small conditions, but every speck of dust has the meaning of existence. #Changed to five stars after a few years, (especially after meeting with Jiaomatang), I really want to make a sci-fi film that does not rely on special effects, but purely relies on props and scenery in the current...

    There is a big brain hole. In many contemporary superhero movies, human beings are omnipotent. This one is the opposite. When the size of human beings is reduced, the survival mode has fundamentally changed. At the beginning, it was just the male protagonist's subtle self-esteem Frustration problems, and later even living in their own home has become difficult. Some scenes are fake, with obvious post-processing...

    3.5. Most of the 1950s Hollywood standards, the middle basement vs. spiders are like a kind of disaster movie. The shrinking of people is not a sudden event, but a long process of gradually becoming smaller, and we can see the psychological changes of "men" who have become smaller. From now on I prefer to think of the man in the line as "human" (although it obviously refers to "man"), so that the film has a lot more philosophical depth to explore the origin of man, and the ending will not seem...

    In an ancient sci-fi film that mainly uses the station to achieve "special effects", flaws can be seen, but it is good to have such a presentation without using special effects. The little man strayed into the giant country, and the pet cat and the black spider that was trampled to death became giant beasts and natural enemies. The ending increases the depth and doesn't fall into the rut and is successfully restored or rescued, which is quite...

    It can be called "The Adventures of Shrinking Man's Basement". Compared with the movie "The Devil's Doll", where the doll is manipulated into evil, this film focuses on Shrinking Man's struggle to survive, and the focus has shifted from the manipulator to the little man himself. . Combined with the background of the times and the reason described in the film is exposure to radiation, it is not difficult to see that the threat of the Soviet Union was alluded to, and the fear of nuclear war...

    There is no need to say more about the special effects. What surprised me was that the male protagonist was not saved, and he did not follow a routine and did not have a happy...

    Micro and macro, the debate between small and big

    As a special effect film, from today's point of view, there are many flaws, some scenes of reducing people are too fake, and the proportion of reducing people and surrounding things is not completely coordinated.

    But the overall flaws of the film are not concealed, it tells a good story, and the...

    Think back

    In this era of sci-fi special effects, let's go back to thinking.

    In the face of those disasters, we all need to do this, we need to examine our own existence, we need to think about the meaning of life, and we need to find the courage to face setbacks.

    Look at The Matrix, Inception... I can't tell...

The Incredible Shrinking Man quotes

  • Scott Carey: I felt puny and absurd, a ludicrous midget. Easy enough to talk of soul and spirit and existential worth, but not when you're three feet tall. I loathed myself, our home, the caricature my life with Lou had become. I had to get out. I had to get away.

  • Clarice: Maybe the best way to begin is to start thinking about the future.

    Scott Carey: A future? In a world of giants?

    Clarice: Hmm. I've lived with them all my life. Oh, Scott, for people like you and me the world can be a wonderful place. The sky is as blue as it is for the giants. The friends are as warm.

    Scott Carey: I wish I could believe that.

    Clarice: You've got to believe that, don't you?
