      Every Time I Watch "Transcendental Hackers", I am Touched

      Technology is not the point! The point is the heart! Whether it's friends before or between husband and wife, Trust each other from the beginning! Until mutual doubts, it is clear that the original intention has not changed, and the dream can be better realized and the world can be better! But the weakness in human nature forces the great spirit to prove itself only by destroying itself! All kinds of helplessness in the world! In the end, it's just human nature!

      I've read it many...

      human nature



          People fear the unknown, mostly because of ignorance.

           In the film, people's first thought in the face of the unknown is to destroy it instead of communicating; it is a malicious conjecture, rather than looking at the positive future. People have evil in their hearts from the beginning, how can they be qualified to obtain good?

          Xunzi said: Human nature is evil. Perhaps one day, we will finally be destroyed in our own fears and evil thoughts....

      Super hero

      Artificial intelligence and anti-artificial intelligence, emotion, betrayal, the stimulation of contradictions, the change of position, the adherence to principles, and the realization of dreams are vividly displayed in this film.
          From another point of view, this seems to be an idol drama. The body dies, but the consciousness survives. When connected to the Internet, there is an extra $38 million in the account within 24 hours. He hides his identity, builds an empire, accompanies him,...

      The sky is constant, how far is mankind from extinction?

      "Humans are always afraid of the unknown!" This is a recurring line in the film. Rejected because of fear.

          Looking back carefully, in the past tens of thousands of years, human beings have indeed never experienced any significant benign evolution, or even some degradation.

          Natural selection, survival of the fittest. The speed of nature's evolution, under the intervention of human activities, is getting faster and faster. Today's human beings, what they want and do,...

      There are many flaws, but some highlights are worth exploring.

      To be honest, as a sci-fi film, I personally feel that this is a film that cannot be said to be good, but it does have some commendable points.

      I can't say that this is a good movie, mainly because of some flaws in the plot. From the beginning of the plot, some settings can be said to be unreasonable. These flaws mainly come from those terrorists who are anti-artificial intelligence:

      there is no sense of disobedience in the first paragraph. These people are just like...

      The world view setting is good. But this kind of film is easy to open the mind. should not be delved...

      Do we want technology to catch up with us, or are we being caught up by technology? In fact, this film personally feels that it has similarities and deeds with Her. It's just that one tells the development of technology in a light-hearted and humorous way, and the other accuses us of thinking backwards. What impact does too much technology have on reality? Can technology surpass humans? Can you really think independently? Are there feelings? (Actually it's a literary...

      Just remember to remind friends not to see it and forget to mark it! And sci-fi fans are excited about the high concept of man-machine integration, you must use Howard's robotic arm for masturbation. And since you like the combination of man and machine, "Dragon Fighter" is your...

      Like the Time Planning Bureau, a good story was ruined by the director. The cast is very strong, and the 3D is too...

    Movie plot

    Dr. Wilcaster is a leading researcher in the field of artificial intelligence. He is committed to creating a humanized and sentient robot in history, which combines human emotion and wisdom in all aspects. Although Will's highly controversial experiment made him famous, it also made him a thorn in the eye of anti-tech extremists, who began to do everything in their power to stop him. Their destruction of Will inadvertently became a...

    Evaluation action

    "Transcendental Hacker" has a grand layout and a calm and forbearing plot. It is a serious story about trust and control about biological consciousness and electronic technology. In some respects, it even has the allegorical characteristics of "The Matrix". Director Varée Feister is quite satisfactory. Regardless of whether the plot of love is supreme and there are no bad guys at the end of the film is nauseating, at least the whole...

    Movie quotes

    • Will Caster: I need you to wait here.

      Evelyn Caster: What? Where are you going?

      Will Caster: Everywhere.

    • Evelyn Caster: What are we doing, Will? We can't fight them.

      Will Caster: We're not gonna fight them. We're gonna transcend them.

    • Max Waters: I spent my life trying to reduce the brain to a series of electrical impulses. I failed. Human emotion, it can contain illogical conflict. Can love someone, and yet hate the things that they've done. Machine can't reconcile that.

      Evelyn Caster: Can you?

      Max Waters: Yes.
