Too narcissistic, too narcissistic

"What happened?"
"I don't know, but the world is ours... we did it..." the

movie protagonist No. 9 said to his new girlfriend and ended the movie.

I think I'm throwing up.

The predecessor of this film is the graduation work of director Shane Acker. It was once nominated for the best short film Oscar or something. It is said that it was amazing at the time.
When I was in Paris, just after visiting Notre Dame Cathedral, I saw the "9" poster, and it was really amazing-this dark tone, ghostly fluorescent 9, rough but empty-eyed robot... At that time I told myself that this film must be watched...

However, of course people will be disappointed.

Although the characters are novel and deep, the scene makes people think of Terminator strongly, but there are also very weird and dark designs in it, which really appeals to my heart.

But... these are the advantages.

The following contains spoilers......The

protagonist No.9, under his innocent appearance...hidden an extremely selfish and narcissistic heart.
Inexplicably, the monster was activated. The loss of a comrade-in-arms can also be explained as an unintentional loss. But... the God who created him has told him that the 9 souls they have are actually just him, created to save real machines that are too easy to be manipulated by bad guys! ...So...they are just...patches! ! !

For a vulnerable system, a patch is to let itself be downloaded, decompressed, installed, and patched, right?

Just like the system-the machine monster has been trying, download, unzip, install and absorb these 9 soul fragments, it will have the opportunity to become an independent, powerful, and capable machine, and then the cup of this world can end there. Other robots such as No. 9 should also obey the Creator’s arrangement and sacrifice automatically to complete the character that saves the world.

But...but... the super narcissistic protagonist No. 9 does not obey the arrangements of fate, just as he is unwilling to obey the arrangements of the ruler No. 1. In fact, No. 1 inherits the idea of ​​the "creator" the most— The ego obeys the ego... The 9th succeeded, and the 9th sacrificed his 5 companions for his own benefit and life, and even destroyed the Creator’s only effort and hope, the system that had a chance to save the world-monsters The machine,,,,,, put the whole world in a state of irreversible destruction...just to...get the love of number 7! ! ! ! Get the honor of "The World belongs to Us"! ! ! !

The question is, can the combination of two robots save the world? Can they regenerate humans like Adam and Eve? No...

I really can't accept this worldview. . . . So, 2 stars.

    More and more grown-up, the music giant. I play five stars, not the plot, but the CG.

    The beginning is not very attractive, as if imitating the ghost mother. When I looked at it, I was confused and looked at them with countless disasters. It is said that it is the destruction of human beings and robots, but the pitiful side of robots is staged here, which makes people feel a kind of contradiction and feels that human beings are sinful. And the proportions of the drawings are also very different. The light bulb is as big as a robot's head, but the fire is as tall as a robot's body.
