invisible hand

Question the world, question the meaning of human existence. Human beings in the world, regardless of war, peace, pleasure, suffering, what is the meaning of the sky in which we live. The envoy of Thern commented on Carter, you have no faith. Faith may give people a sense of survival, but believing that God created everything is not a compromise to the endless unknown of this starry sky. In the film, Carter's confusion, pinning everything on the earth to find gold, is very similar to Ni Kuang's science fiction in the search for souls, anti-life questioning human beings, where is your human soul, in the money? At the end of the novel, Ni Kuang used Wesley to express his thoughts. The soul of human beings lies in the thoughts of human beings. If a person's mind is addicted to money, his soul has already been sold to money. But after all, not all human beings sell their souls, and there are still people who are exploring this infinite and unknown world with their own thoughts. Questioning the world, questioning the authenticity of the world in front of us, will there really be an angel of Thurn, as described by string theory, woven into an invisible hand, playing our illusory world. Carter is happy, at least back to Earth, he found his soul from the gold, at this moment the meaning of his existence is to return to Mars, to find his princess. The traces left by the envoy of Sern on the earth became the unknown that Carter pursued. The biggest legend in everyone's life is that he came into this world by himself. If there is a God, thank God for letting us descend to this unknown starry sky. Perhaps the meaning of human existence is to use one's limited life to uncover the invisible hands composed of the unknown. Perhaps, the real end of the world is when people completely uncover the world and lose the source of exploration.
This movie is inexplicably stabbed in the heart, and I highly recommend it with emotion.

not bad. The plot behind the scenes is a highlight

The barely passing film, with too much preparation in front, is very boring to watch. It’s still a bit interesting to watch it slowly. After all, the cost is so big, the special effects and a few war scenes are pretty dazzling, and at the end, the game that was set at the beginning is rounded back. The 3D effect is still not obvious.

Sola: [as they follow Dejah who is supposed to be taking them to the river Iss] Dotar Sojat. Carter! I do not think she leads us to the Iss.
John Carter: Alright then, Sola. Just play along.
John Carter: [Carter rides his lizard-horse creature closer to Dejah and suddenly grabs her rains] What do you think I'd do once I saw your city and not some river?
Dejah Thoris: What do you mean?
Sola: Cloras Anthorea, they should be at our backs by now. You lead us toward Helium!
Dejah Thoris: Once we reach there, you would see for yourself the virtue of our cause.
Dejah Thoris: Everyone thinks their cause is virtuous, professor.
[suddenly he grabs her stuff and throws her off her lizard-horse creature and he and Sola take off leaving her behind]
Dejah Thoris: What are you doing? No! John Carter! You can't!
Sola: [as they pretend to leave her] I like this plan better.
John Carter: Just wait. She'll come around.

Dejah Thoris: You mad fool! You're not from Earth! There are no Gates of Iss! I only told you what you wanted to hear so you'd get us out! Stop! I can't! I cannot marry him!
John Carter: Can't marry who?
Dejah Thoris: The Zodanga Jeddak you fought. Sab Than. He offered a truce to my father in exchange for my hand.
John Carter: Your father?
Dejah Thoris: Tardos Mors.
Sola: The Jeddak of Helium. She is a princess.
John Carter: A princess of Mars. How about that? A princess who didn't wanna get married, so she ran away.
Dejah Thoris: No.
John Carter: Is that all there is to this story?
Dejah Thoris: No! I didn't run away! I escaped!
John Carter: From what? His breath? So marry the guy and save your people.
Dejah Thoris: A life of oppression, that's not living!
[as she runs to follow them Dejah falls, Carter suddenly turns back and offers to help her up]
Dejah Thoris: If you had the means to save others, would you not take any action possible to make it so?
John Carter: No good will come out of me fightin' your war.
Dejah Thoris: I would lay down my life for Helium. Yes, I ran away. I was... afraid, weak. Maybe I should have married, but I so feared that it would somehow be the end of Barsoom. I tell you truly, John Carter of Earth, there are no Gates of Iss. They are not real.
John Carter: I'm sorry, princess. But this...
John Carter: [he shows her the medallion that brought him to Barsoom]
John Carter: This is real. And so is my cave of gold.
[he offers his hand to Dejah to help her up which she reluctantly takes]
