A little thought

I have been looking forward to it for a long time. I learned about this film from the book of Electronic Knights. It combines film noir, cyberpunk, apocalyptic plot, Los Angeles police, and race conflicts. It is exciting to think about it, but after watching it, I feel a The pot is good, but the stew is a bit unpleasant. The core equipment of the film, Squid, Chuck and William Gibson have performed in "Crash Club" and "Holographic Rose Fragment" respectively, and it is probably the first time that it has been presented in a subjective perspective. This is also the essence of the film. Under the fierce game mirror, Catherine wantonly displays death, violence, and eroticism. The documentary sense of oppression makes many male directors look like a silly gun, especially when Iris was raped and killed. The exchange of squid can let the victims experience. The spectacle of raping and killing oneself is extremely creative. However, I don't know what went wrong, although Catherine was arrogantly piling up street turmoil materials, trying to piece together a picture of apocalyptic dance, but it was always tickle, making it difficult to enter the scene. After thinking about it, I personally feel that there is something wrong with the pattern of Kashen's script. It is an excellent starting point to set the symbolic end of the century when mankind is about to enter the new millennium. The arrival of the end of the century is also the film and others. A big push is the reason for the emergence of apocalyptic movies, but Kashen focused the contradiction on the black-and-white ethnic conflict, as the fuse for the birth of the riot. It was originally a bright spot with political demands, but the effect was a little bit playful. It made the fate of the end times extremely weak and turned it into a street riot. It’s not that racial factors won’t work, it’s just that I personally think it can be used as a spice, but using it as the key to the end of mankind is a bit unconvincing. It is too real and tangible, and lacks the metaphysical transcendence that matches the end of the world. feel. Think of the monologues in "Blade Runner", look at the scene sketches of "Ghost in the Shell", listen to Connery's misty old song in "Transportation City", you will understand that you don't need the skyrocketing flames and The dense smoke requires only one sentence "disappear in the rain", and only need to stare at the crowded crowds on the street and the shadows of the blinds for a long time. The overwhelming sense of apocalypse makes people feel. Like Lin Yuan Ya, it is an irreversible dying, like a lycaen butterfly that hints of doom fluttering in the city. In addition, Ralph and Juliet’s performances were also lacklustre. Juliet’s rebellious rock and roll made her lack mystery in the process of acting as a traditional obsessive symbol for film noir male protagonists. Ralph’s literary and artistic temperament was also strongly suppressed by Angela. It made his depravity and love words seem not dry or crispy and greasy. Angela's Mace is a good impression, firm principles, sad past, secret love for Ralph, as she said, "I have done more to you than we both imagined." The big scene at the end is amazing. The dense crowds and the sky full of confetti can be regarded as the embryonic form of the later "Detroit". The soundtrack is also very good, but some people say that someone will reverse the film for many years. I think it is still very good. Hang.
