Romance Sci-Fi

"My Robot Girlfriend" can be seen as a combination of romance films and science fiction films, even if the Tokyo Earthquake resembling a disaster film follows. I have to say that the result of mixing and matching is weird, especially Keisuke Koide's weak male personality, which is really not likable from start to finish. The film blurs out the background of his growth, and only provides a trip to Shanao to explain. It was this vague crossing that brought the two back to their hometown, Shanao, and were repeatedly praised in all aspects. The audience follows the protagonist to a place where he cannot go back and regains his good memories. It is not only Jiro's unfulfilled wish but also the mystery of his origins - he just needs someone to guard his side. The first and last echoes of the film not only form a formal space-time circle, but the robot also reads human emotions, but the proposition may be reduced to a fallacy. Fast forward a hundred years, and this part of the memory was released again, which led to another time travel, which completely disrupted the film.

    3.5, I only watched it because the Chinese version was about to be released. Quite interesting sci-fi love movie, it is actually a parallel world with the repair mechanism of grandfather paradox. The male protagonist who won the lottery in one week is paralyzed, and he invented a robot to travel back to make up for his regrets in life. In the second week, he has a robot girlfriend, but because of People who have been saved in the past and a big earthquake occurred, so that the people who were saved will not affect the future after the earthquake. In the third week, the future female student joins, and finally returns to the time of the Great Tokyo Earthquake where the robot girlfriend died. Although it will be repaired, it is still a parallel world, because the male protagonist's pet was a lizard at first, and later became a cat, which is the product of a slight deviation in the parallel world.
