Movies construct a post-technological eschatological century for us. Resources are exhausted, the land is completely desertified, and human beings are huddled in the built cities to survive and survive. The development of science and technology allows people to create robots to serve people. In order to limit the intelligence of robots, many limitations are set. The movie reveals the hidden story through a complaint handled by the protagonist. Like a detective story, the film is constantly stripping away its cocoons, revealing the stench of society's stinking decay by discovering details. Human beings are full of fear of unknown technology, because they are afraid that people would rather destroy this advanced technology that they do not master. People are used to holding everything in their hands, and for things that cannot be predicted and mastered, Existence becomes a threat. The characters portrayed in the film are not heroes, let alone mainstream figures in society, but just an ordinary ordinary person. From the perspective of ordinary people, we can better feel the reality of society, which makes the film particularly infectious. On the one hand, it imitates every bit of society's decline, and it also explores with us the difficulties of the rise of new things. Putting the audience in a choice between the old and the new, it seems that there will be very good reasons for choosing either side, which constantly tortures our rational thinking, whether to give up human beings or kill technology, making it difficult for people to choose. Fortunately, the movie does not leave us with this problem, but constantly makes choices for us while advancing the plot, and this choice is to follow the laws of the changing times to promote the development of new things. The idea of a movie abandoning human beings is more or less uncomfortable. After all, movies are made for people to see. Although they are all about the facts of future changes in the world, abandoning one’s own human race and promoting society to discover, always Feeling mentally unacceptable. No matter how selfish and greedy human beings are, after all, they are part of it. Letting something new take over their role in society makes me feel unwilling to think about it. Although I also deeply understand the natural law of the replacement of old and new things, I still want to continue the time I want to last. Still do not have the courage and determination that the director has, knowing that it is the general trend of the times, but still sympathizing with people in the end times.
The robots in the movie are not as amazing and outstanding as people imagined, which makes people feel a little disappointed when watching this movie. The robots in the movie have become vulnerable groups, which is contrary to the plot of the previous sci-fi movies, which makes people feel quite for accident. Although the movie uses robots as a gimmick, it is mainly a confrontation between people, thinking about the future of human beings from two opposing perspectives, which makes the movie full of too much humanistic feelings. The most outstanding thing in the movie is Banderas, who is not a suave Spanish lover but a sloppy uncle, but he is equally likable.
The movie is very serious to show us the end of mankind after the technological civilization. Environmental issues and survival issues are directly in front of people. This is much more real and practical than the beautiful fantasy of science and technology in the past. It seems that we are really developing in this direction. The tone of the film reveals a kind of negativity, which makes people unable to see the hope of the future of mankind, which inevitably makes people fall into deep worry about the future and contemplation of reality after watching the film. The film focuses on the apocalypse and robots, and connecting these two things makes people feel good-looking, but then again, the film is actually not too ugly.
