Sallow, bright blue lighting, cold and cold empty buildings, computer and telephone copiers, but they are all very retro and steampunk mechanical settings, the European-style light meal restaurant is filled with old Japanese pop music, time It seems to be back in the 1960s and 1970s but not at all. In the end, what is created is a world that is both familiar and unfamiliar, a strange and depressing world, a world that seems to have a mirror relationship with the current world but is indeed different.
Just like the Simon James in the film who met James Simon, one is so inflexible that he can't even speak to the girl he loves, while the other is active and proud to pick up a girl as easy as eating. It's like when a person is split, the completely opposite personalities are also retained in their respective bodies - the outside mirrors the inside but the opposite.
It has to be said that although this is a story that takes place in a virtual world, the film not only reflects the two sides of human personality, but also reflects many current situations in social phenomena. Many people may say after watching it: The film really speaks to many people’s hearts, why are some people unpopular no matter how hard they try? As if the image in other people's hearts has been set dead. Sometimes I also treat others like this, using stereotypes to imprison the other party's actions and good intentions.
The quality of the film is very high, and it is difficult to say that I fully understand it. But it is worthy of praise for the relationship between a few people in such a weird world that can watch it for so long without getting bored. Jesse's motor mouth is still a model of performance, while being dull and pitiful at the same time, it is very enjoyable.
