Friends who often read science fiction novels will find that the background setting of the film is very classic, which can be seen in many European and American science fiction novels. As far as the film is concerned, it is a typical Hollywood sci-fi film. The character setting, plot setting, rhythm control and even the final battle are in line with the laws of Hollywood films.
The following points are worth mentioning:
There is a long shot of nearly 4 and a half minutes shortly after the opening, which is very important, not only showing the internal structure of the Serenity spacecraft, but also introducing the members of the ship, their personalities and mutual relationship. This process is formed by the captain in series, which also shows the core status and soul role of the captain.
The English name of the Serenity is serenity, and the two Chinese characters for "Quiet" are also written on the spacecraft. Chinese can be seen in many places in the film. For example, on the screen of the spacecraft, the crew will occasionally speak Chinese with terrible pronunciation. These may be to indicate that the human world at that time has experienced the great fusion of various civilizations, and the culture and language at that time were already the result of the fusion of multiple cultures and languages. It's just that those Chinese characters are also like a book from heaven to us, and if the Chinese spoken is not matched with the subtitles, we can't understand it at all. It can be seen that the so-called fusion is nothing more than English with a little nondescript Chinese, and some Japanese pseudonyms. The director doing this is really superfluous. Getting these things will cause trouble for the actors, and it may also hurt the national feelings of a group of Chinese people.
The girl had two kung fu demonstrations, the first shocking everyone, the second saving everyone. The second shot is very Japanese-style. In the picture, the girl is holding double-edged blades, and the backlight is independent. Many orcs are lying in a pool of blood. There is a Japanese-style violent aesthetics like "a hundred people kill a girl". However, the girl is not kawaii enough, and the clothes are closer to life, which is different from Japanese movies.
