One of the best movies of 2017.
Villeneuve can always use extremely calm shots to set off a shock wave in my heart bit by bit. As a relatively young director in Hollywood, Villeneuve should be a great potential film master in the 21st century. Whether it's science fiction, magic or reality, he can use the slow, steady but just right rhythm of the shots to drive your emotions deep into it, allowing you to discuss the most esoteric theme - human nature.
The plot of "The City of Scorched Earth" can be described in one sentence, but it must be bloody and uninteresting. But when you are in the film as a bystander, watching the conflict a little bit and trigger the tragedy to emerge slowly, everything is so real and there is no way you can't accept it.
When people suffer from the severe pain of conflict and friction between various "correct rules, norms, norms and orders", can we return to our own simple life forms, maintain our inner truth, and pass on even a little bit of love , choose to forgive others and forgive yourself.
