Why do we like someone

Everyone loves beauty. This human instinct is actually the result of the selection of the survival of the fittest in nature extended to human society. But people will get old, no matter how beautiful they used to be, they can't escape the ravages of time. So regarding the idea of ​​the robot agent of "Future Cop", I think it must be a pursuit and concern of the screenwriter and director for beauty.
Although beauty in the heart is more valuable than beauty in appearance, it is undeniable that appearance is the first impression left by people, an important aspect of attracting the opposite sex (including the same sex in modern society), and the decisive factor for "love at first sight". Our liking for a person often starts from a person's appearance. Handsome guys and beautiful women have always been popular. But if it's just because of this, what I like is just a human skin. Don't blame me for being cruel, look at the movie where the robot is groomed, and the face is easily torn off from the ear, revealing a cold machine. Without this skin, the robots are made from the same equipment, assembled from the same assembly line, and indistinguishable from each other. In the same way, there is no difference in the physical structure of a real human being, and it is just a human skin covering the outside of the skeleton.
Don't underestimate this human skin, it can make you turn heads when you walk on the street, can easily exchange for the hearts of young girls, and can make big money willing to take out a lot of money from his pocket. Beautiful appearance can subdue a group of people, can destroy a country, and its lethality is no less than the atomic bomb. So too many people miss their faces when they were young, and too many people feel inferior about their appearance. When there is a real robot agent in the future, I believe it will be as popular as in the movies. But where would the true feelings go then? I'm afraid this will make it difficult to have the story of "the wife of the scumbag won't go to court".
If this movie goes deeper, there are actually many loopholes, the characters are very symbolized, and there are not many surprises in the plot direction, but the valuable thing lies in its core, which is a kind of torture of human nature. We all want to look perfect, but we must not ignore the better emotions because of the beauty of the image. In the film, the director consciously made the robots stiff and cold, and their faces were expressionless. Even if they looked flawless from the outside, when you were hit by these "people" on the street and staggered and they walked over without any response, I'm sure you will miss the spectacular scene of the vixen scolding the street.

    Bruce Venice can actually be "hard" for so many years.

    Much better than imagined, coherent and explored many possibilities, but there are also many unreasonable points.
