The plot is really too humiliating to IQ to the point of infuriating. Three friends who work in the biological laboratory and I just jumped up from the sofa in the theater and started to complain immediately after the film was over.
The stage of this film is on the International Space Station, the highest crystallization of human wisdom. The characters are a team of top experts in their fields who have received decades of higher education, and human elites selected from various countries. However, their performance in the play is like a group of teenagers who are stupefied, reckless, stupid and unprofessional. Crisis handling ability and rigorous attitude towards unknown things are extremely low, and even strict adherence to the protocol cannot be achieved.
The design of the space station is also confusing. A laboratory for studying unknown alien life forms, a laboratory that should be able to deal with potentially dangerous organisms that can cause a human race crisis, does not have an independent isolation system, complete disinfection and access control. Personnel entering and exiting do not even need to wear full protective clothing with independent oxygen supply, which not only makes people feel that they are in a BSL-2 level laboratory, processing BSL-4 demand level research. The most incomprehensible thing is that the ventilation system is connected to other parts of the space station, and there is no basic failure safe. You need to go to the master control center to manually close up to dozens of independent vents one by one. For such a large space station, there is only one antenna that can connect to the earth. This design is very unreal, and it feels deliberate and artificial.
It is precisely because of the extremely low IQ of the team members, the resolute behavior of violating every security protocol, and the unreasonably poor design of the space station, that every minute of watching this movie forces me to think about a question: the end of the movie. Where can I find any logic? Poke an unknown alien creature with a charged stick? Use a flamethrower in an oxygen-filled space station? Treat a comminuted fractured hand with a bandage?
The plot design of the story is also full of loopholes. During the whole process of breaking the electric rod, breaking the BSC, observing and eating the rat, all the team members kept disconnecting and performed their own Yan Yi. However, when it finally turned its attention to the crowd, a member of the team suddenly went online and rushed in to save people in violation of the rules, resulting in trapped death. After his death, the other dropped team members went online one after another and decided to close the vents. Eventually, the aliens escaped because of their slow hand speed. When the captain decided to venture out of the warehouse to repair communications, he was unfortunately entangled by alien creatures and damaged the cooling system, causing toxic cooling waste to flow into the helmet. She finally arrived at the hatch, but when she was only one step away from being rescued, she suddenly decided to die at the door, giving the alien a chance to return. Even at the end of the film, the life-saving system of the space station was paralyzed, and the temperature had dropped to extremely low levels. In an extremely critical situation, the hero and heroine spent time watching the stars, watching the moon and reading fairy tales, and then suddenly mentioned that the space station had an escape pod after being sentimental. What's going on...Are You Freaking Serious? I can't help but suspect that the screenwriter does not have the ability to handle parallel plots. His brain circuit is single-threaded, so that during the process of completing a plot, other characters must remain on standby. In the grasp of the rhythm, the routine of forcibly inserting an emotional scene every time two people die is also very troublesome. I understand that to shape the character of a character, a full character setting is essential, but such a deliberate treatment is indeed lacking.
As for why there are flamethrowers and large Taser guns in the space station, why there are vent valves that directly connect to space without isolation, why the abnormal shape can force an air through fluid mechanics against such a large internal and external pressure difference. The narrow and long pipelines with extremely high flow rate, why should we violate the laboratory safety rules that even junior high school students know to deal with extraterrestrial cells and other details are too numerous to enumerate. In short, as a viewer, you will feel that they have countless opportunities to solve this problem in countless ways in the whole film. However, due to the above-mentioned reasons, things have finally reached the worst point irreversibly. In fact, even if these six people don't try any hard work, just sit quietly on the floor and play poker, the ending will be much brighter.
As for the reversal of the final ending, it will inevitably fall into the cliche of all alien monster films. After all, the aliens that have not been perfectly resolved, it is also an international practice to keep one hand in the end. Perhaps when this alien life sinks to the bottom of the ocean and eats up countless aquariums to become bigger and smarter, the sequel of this film will return to the screen in the form of the Cthulhu myth.
In summary, the film is not shoddy, and the level is relatively good. The topic of life is very new, and it can be written very deep and very interesting. However, the film failed to achieve the desired effect, and the exploration and sublimation of the essence of life failed to apply a strong ink. Instead, it used the plot of naming the alien creatures to be fooled, which caused it to become a formality. Gimmick. As for the Madonna Old Black forcibly whitewashing Kevin and deliberately bringing it into the bridge section of the cabin, people can't help but wonder why a professionally trained biological worker would make such a frivolous move. Because the previous plot did not have enough content to pave the way for the feelings between the two, this plot feels unreasonable and very abrupt. In short, this film is not suitable for viewers who like to be mindful when watching it. You may think that it is better to buy a chipotle for $12 to watch it. Please show tolerance and restraint when watching the movie.
