Like sitting on pins and needles, like thorns on the back, like a stinger in the throat

Really, a year of waiting is not worth it.

This movie can be said to be a hodgepodge of "Elysium" + "Snowpiercer" + "Guardians of the Galaxy".

Given the dissatisfaction of some "fans" with poor reviews, I won't use "The Wandering Earth" for comparison.

video background

First of all, the traces of Asian films have faded significantly. Korean movies have always been known for their genre. Korean genre films have a unique Korean film aesthetics and distinct Asian film characteristics, so they enjoy an international reputation. Internationalization, yes, but the premise is not to forget localization. Is "Victory" like a Korean movie? No, he is more like the "fast food" under the Hollywood heavy industry system five years ago. "Train to Busan" is an old wine in a new bottle. Where is it new? It is new under a pure Western script, with the unique characteristics of Asian movies. This is a big failure of "Victory", and it has a wrong positioning for its own film.

Secondly, the plot is old-fashioned, and you know the end when you see the beginning. So the plot of the whole movie didn't surprise me much, the villain was too weak, and the script conflict was obviously diluted.

What is even more speechless is this logical bug. It was said in the last second that hydrogen bombs can destroy nano-scale robots. What is the result? The last second said that the hydrogen bomb cannot be disassembled, and it will explode as soon as it is disassembled. How did the heroine do it? This kind of bug can be said to insult the audience's IQ.

The entertainment is not enough, the thought should be enough, right? I'm sorry dear, I thought too much. It can be seen that the director wants to discuss human nature, but also wants to discuss love and affection at the same time. In the end, like "Weathering With You", the themes are mixed and chaotic.

As a try, I'd give it a 6.5 but really, can't get any higher.

    It sucks. South Korea's bad routines and Hollywood's bad routines have not created the novelty of type grafting and localization, but instead make people roll their eyes.

    "The Wizard of Oz" + "Guardians of the Galaxy" + "Uncle" + "Star Wars" + "Firefly" + "Elysium" is a pot of kimchi stew, obviously spending the budget on the blade, drama, editing and narrative The rhythm is collectively offline, and the degree of boredom is no less than that of Luc Besson's "Interstellar Agent". I have been looking forward to it for so long, and I am looking forward to a loneliness.

Space Sweepers quotes

  • Man: [narrating] Hope was extinct. The Earth was still breathing, but it was on life support. With Earth no longer habitable, the only place left to go was up.

  • Announcer: Earth used to be the symbol of life. Space, death. Now through the miracle of technology, we can go fishing in a stream above the sky. Children are again able to chase butterflies in vst green fields. This is only the beginning for UTS.
