The world loves Robert Pattinson

I finally read the annual expectation (one), although it is not the first time to see it, but it can be regarded as the completion of the annual goal (one).

"Tomorrow's Me and Yesterday's You Date" Nolan's implicit male love version, what kind of action sci-fi film is this, this is "Brokeback Mountain" about time, a pure tragic love film.

Let’s talk about the overall feeling first: the setting of this movie is very powerful, but the look and feel is not very exciting.

Nolan spent a long time telling the background of this story, and it is not difficult to understand. There are many time travel movies, and there are also many hero films that save the world in dire straits. The novelty lies in the presentation of the retrograde world, and the impact on the audience's antegrade logic when the anterograde and retrograde worlds go on at the same time.

After you understand the big concept, it's not a big problem if you don't understand the small details. If you are interested, it will be solved with a second brush.

The important thing is what is the effect of the background setting of Nolan's new world this time? I don't think it's wonderful. The visual effects of sci-fi action films are insufficient, whether it is racing, bombing buildings, or the final gunfight, they are all soft. In particular, the actions of the characters in the retrograde world are not only not powerful enough, but even a little funny. The feeling of hitting the sponge with a hard punch.

What I like is not those big scenes, but Neil's selfless protection of the male protagonist, and the phrase "I am waiting for you at the starting point", what is this not a pure love film? It is exactly the same as the outline of "Tomorrow's Me and Yesterday's You".

After this film, the world loves Robert Pattinson.

Although the sense of shock to me is not enough, the setting of the movie is really awesome. Nolan can come up with such a story background is not only a genius, but also a "madman". I believe that after this film, there will be more sci-fi movies with similar settings, so this can be regarded as Nolan's creation of a sci-fi movie direction.

Nolan has been fascinated by the complex concept of time, and I hope to see him return to his basics in the near future. After all, no matter how great the technology is, it serves the plot.

How to say this movie is a high-tech AI chef, using the latest nano-cooking tools, using organic and non-polluting ingredients, and then using low-key luxury brand tableware to artistically arrange the plate, and make a scallion mixed tofu for the diners. Tofu mixed with shallots is delicious, but I was looking forward to roasted whole lamb.

    The biggest advantage of Nolan’s film is that the soundtrack is magnificent enough. As long as the volume is turned on high enough, I can’t hear the surrounding audience commentary tracks~

    Since Dunkirk, Nolan has become more proficient with gay men.

  • Neil: But in the future, those in power clearly believe you can kick grandpa downstairs, gouge his eyes out, slit his throat, without consequence.

    The Protagonist: Could they be right?

    Neil: Doesn't matter, they believe it. That's why they're willing to destroy us.

  • The Protagonist: This reversing the flow of time... doesn't us being here now, mean it never happened? Could we stop them?

    Neil: Optimistically, I'd say that's right.

    The Protagonist: Pessimistically?

    Neil: In a parallel worlds theory, we can't know the relationship between consciousness and multiple realities. Does your head hurt yet ? Try to get some sleep.
