Flying bacteria

A TV mini-series, only 3 hours long, is much better than many so-called blockbusters.

The story was written by Michael Crichto, the author of "Jurassic Park", and tells the story of a satellite that fell into an American suburb, causing a viral disaster.

The film is divided into three lines to tell the story, the research of experts in the laboratory, the struggle of the military at the scene of the disaster, and the in-depth interviews of reporters in the army. I feel that the line of reporters is optional. Although the progress of the story is told from the lowest level, it seems to be too superficial and does not portray the image of reporters too much, so that the role of reporters has no color in the film. The film involves too much professional knowledge and a lot of political background, and it feels too cumbersome. Fortunately, the plot is compact and the special effects are shocking.

The film involves traveling through time and space, which reminds me of the fourth season of "Lost" that I just finished watching; the virus involved will inevitably remind me of "28 Days Later"; and the aircraft and tank scenes throughout the film also have the theme of "Independence Day". shadow.

However, the 3-hour film seems to be too long if viewed as a movie. If it is edited in the middle and some plots are deleted, the plot may be more compact; if viewed as a series, it is too short, there is no one Clues with a wider span can keep the story going. The film leaves a foreshadowing of a sequel at the end.

The best movie I've seen recently, you can watch it.

    The subject matter of the story is okay. The whole story develops fairly compactly. It's also well-organized, leaving a little suspense at the end. . It is estimated that the next episode will not look as exciting as the previous episode. I don't know if it's because of my mood. The next episode is generally 6.8

    The idea is good, the application of scientific knowledge is quite simple, but it is too pessimistic and a bit verbose

The Andromeda Strain quotes

  • Major Bill Keane MD: [to Jeremy] If you set out to deliberately exterminate mankind, you couldn't do better than Andromeda.

  • Dr. Jeremy Stone: So, you're saying they survived Andromeda because they had the same level of stomach acid? That's brilliant.
