A sci-fi name, a suspenseful body, a "comedy" tail, and a warm heart.

Regarding such a very tempting title, it is not easy to hold down oneself, so, against the background of thousands of small whispers, the film begins.

The plot with a bit of horror film is always inadvertently put on shirts under the dark tones and sound effects. Cage's familiar faces appearing in this context are also stained with a bit of melancholy, like the character in the film - a single father.

You can arrange for children to appear in certain scenes. The director is very inspired by Japanese horror movies, but the title of the film is early to tell the children who are a little chilly in front of the screen "Don't be afraid, this is your favorite science fiction movie with an alien uncle. Lie", saving the dolls' "wow" cry.

It is very exciting to see such a cool thing as predicting the future. Science fiction has already popularized such fantasy with the people like elementary school arithmetic. In other words, this is a difficult movie to make. .

The director used the narrative style of a horror movie to finish a lot of things related to the title of "The Prophet", during which the mildly depressed child as a prophet is far more hazy and unknown than a gray-haired grandfather. We saw the expression of Cage after witnessing the plane crash and the subway accident, and then we turned to the quiet children


who grabbed the pen and wrote frantically about the future... The mysterious black-clothed men who appeared without expressions, but also became The real weakness of the film.


If the prediction of the future has been fried in science fiction stories, then the aliens... are simply pork belly that I don't know how many times.
With such a theme, "The Day the Earth Stood Still" can easily become a powerful sci-fi film. With this name, it can attract a box office like water.
The fact is that what attracts people to spend money is limited to the name that pulls the wind.


The most sci-fi thing like alien life has become the favorite disruptor in sci-fi movies now.


Although the director did his best to add mysterious potions to the aliens, he also took great care in arranging the time and place of appearances, so that people could not know the true identities of these mysterious people as much as possible, and brushed the influence of the "villain" flavor. After being non-human, I couldn't help but shrug.

After these few seconds, all the sci-fi plots with horror content in the past finally appeared, God, Adam and Eve! (This joke was great!) Cage put a pendant with his family portrait on his lucky "Adam" son, and then let him follow the alien uncle in the spaceship, but he cried. The pebble beach, yes, that was his only son. The next day - a day known as the end of the world.

What attracted me most to the film was not only the director's admirable performance of such a cliché ending, but also Cage, who finally embraced his father who had been in the gap for many years. The corners are overflowing with warmth.


These things are also called fatherly love, right?

    Two Cage movies in a row made me dislike him even more

    The filming in the front was good, the acting of the child was also good, but the back was too bloody, and finally an alien spaceship came out! Can you be more bloody?
