punk fairy tale

It also seems to be a movie that has been seen before, and it feels very good after watching it. Thinking about where the relationship between robots and humans should go.

After reading it, the deepest feeling is the problem of story design. There are too many perspectives of characters. Uncle Kenichi's investigation line, Kenichi Tima's escape line, Locke's pursuit line, the political line of Duke Rhett and the president, and Tima's own design The Doctor and the Duke of Rhett are in the same line, and the multi-line design can indeed enrich the content, but in the linear narrative, because of the multi-line content, there is actually no line to tell the complete story, and the viewing experience is a bit poor.

Based on the above, it is even more obvious that the characters are not deeply shaped. Uncle's image of an old urchin and Locke's image of hating robots are actually worth showing in depth. In the end, only Kenichi's image is relatively full, and the others rely entirely on imagination... and Kenichi Still the standard male lead template

There is nothing wrong with the character design in the style of painting, even the 2001 film is not inferior at all; the subject matter is very interesting, Jigurui's sci-fi high-rise and class society, the bottom-level rebel Atlas, and the leader of Locke The Marduk Party of the 1970s has many forces mixed together, and the metaphors in it are very thought-provoking.

The bottom world is full of cyberpunk designs, as well as the story of the Tower of Babel nested in it, and it is a bit mythical. Although it is a hodgepodge, it has a unique charm.

In general, the storyline design is deducted, and the others are very good

    I watched the sci-fi love movie "Metropolis" based on the original manga of the idol Osamu Tezuka x Otomo Keyang's script. It was very good. I have always liked Osamu Tezuka's anti-human creative ideas, but the ending is full of reflections on human love. The joining of Otomo Keyang has enriched the description of the perverted urban scene, and it is really a classic masterpiece of powerful alliances. As a work of the master 60 years ago, it still seems moving today.

    I still remember watching it on the movie channel when I was very young, and I was completely shocked by the powerful background and characters!
