972. The Martian

The movie opens with a vista of Moon Valley shot with an aerial camera, and of course, in the movie at this time, this is Mars.

The burgundy desert and cliffs instantly attracted the attention of all the audience, and the long shot at the beginning vividly expressed the desolate and lonely atmosphere of Mars.

With the sound of the call, Nie Wei's Mars scientific research team appeared in the picture.

Everyone is wearing a spacesuit, but the spacesuit on everyone in the film is more close-fitting and not as bloated as everyone is commonly seen.

This kind of change, firstly, is to look good, after all, it is a movie, and it is not really in outer space.

The second point is also to make a difference from the present, after all, the era in which this movie is located is the future, and the technology is more developed.

The team members were collecting soil samples while chatting with each other, the atmosphere was quite relaxed, and occasionally a few golden sentences would make the audience laugh.

However, the relaxed atmosphere did not last long, and with the advance notice of a storm, everyone had to hurry back to the ship, leave the base as soon as possible, and escape Mars in the ship.

The storm came so quickly and quickly that by the time the research team walked out of the base, the storm was already coming.

The audience with 3D equipment was all frightened the moment the scientific research captain Li Qing opened the gate of the base, it was dark outside, accompanied by flying sand and rocks, and with the surround sound effect in the ears, everyone felt the power of the super sandstorm at this moment.

Some viewers who were too involved in watching it were even so frightened by this sudden scene that they desperately wanted to lean back, until they came back to their senses and realized that all this was just special effects, but their foreheads and backs were already covered with cold sweat.

The five people were heading towards the rocket in the storm, and the satellite receiving equipment at the base was crumbling in the storm, and just when everyone was not far ahead, the disk of the satellite receiving signal was directly torn off by the storm, and then flew towards the scientific research team.

Viewers who have watched the trailer know that it must be Mark, played by Nie Wei, who was hit, but watching the disc fly over, everyone was still nervous.

The plot did not surprise the audience, although there were two twists and turns, but it was Mark who was hit in the end.

The captain of the commander persevered until the end, but he still didn't contact Mark, so he reluctantly started the spaceship and left Mars, the black sandstorm flying sand and rocks in the sky was still blowing, and the hearts of the audience were also hanging.

Although everyone knows that Mark is the protagonist and will not just die, in such an environment, especially those with 3D equipment, there is a deep sense of how small and powerless human beings are in the face of nature.

The black sandstorm blew for a while, and when the weather cleared again, the area around the base was already in shambles, and as the camera advanced, there was gradually a burst of mechanical sounds coming out next to the Gobi.

"Oxygen Concentration, Very Low, Warning, Oxygen Concentration, Very Low ......"

After experiencing a terrifying black sandstorm, Mark was lucky to survive, and he was not contacted for the sake of him, and then gave an explanation, it turned out that the antenna on the disc happened to hit the life sensor on his spacesuit.

Unfortunately, the spacecraft has left Mars, and he is left alone.

In the story that follows, Mark says something about his predicament when he faces a video of himself left on the computer, using a set of data to show his current predicament.

"I can't get in touch with Huaxia Aerospace right now, and even if I do, it may take four years for a manned spacecraft to save me, but... Our habitation pods are designed to last only thirty-one days. ”

"In the meantime, if the oxygen concentrator breaks, I'll suffocate, if the reclaimed water unit breaks, I'll die of thirst, if the dwelling pod can't stop the next storm, I'll just hang up, and if I'm lucky enough and none of this happens, I'll eventually run out of food, so ......"

Seeing Nie Wei's helpless and desperate expression on the screen, everyone was silent.

"It's a textbook confessional performance. Jingdian's acting class teacher and the students of grade 09 also came to the cinema at the invitation of Nie Wei to watch the premiere of "The Martian".

When I saw Nie Wei recording this passage on the screen against the camera, Wang Lan, the teacher of the acting class, gave a super high evaluation.

This scene tests an actor's expression and line skills.

If these two performances are not good, then the audience will not feel the despair in the protagonist Mark at this time, and Nie Wei's performance, in Wang Lan's opinion, is completely a performance that can be written into a textbook.

From the beginning of trying to comfort himself with jokes, to the helpless sigh later, from beginning to end, Nie Wei's emotional transformation is perfect, and with the repetition of his voice and the lines containing feelings, the loneliness and despair of being left alone on a planet without life are all shown to the audience.

There is no need for any actors to cooperate, no exaggerated body movements, and no tears, just with the change of expression and language, people can feel the oppression of the heart being grasped, and it is really sympathetic and sad for the protagonist's situation at this time.

Of course, there will always be a part of the audience whose attention is not completely focused on the screen.

Especially the moment when Nie Wei cut off his coat in order to heal his wounds, I don't know how many little girls were attracted by his sculptural muscles.

In commercial movies, if the actor is in good shape, there must be a meat selling scene.

What's more, Nie Wei's figure is not bad, it is simply the most perfect body that a woman's ideal husband or boyfriend can have.

Nie Wei's muscles are tight and solid, they look full of strength, but they are not too exaggerated, the overall line is perfect, the place where it should be strong is very strong, and the place where it should be thin is very thin.

Especially in the waist part, when Nie Wei's Mark had to tighten his abdomen because of injury treatment, the mermaid line that could be called a perfect triangle simply made the female audience can't help but drool.

"Wow, Shu Chang is too 'happy'. ”

"Nie Wei's skin is so good, it looks like it's touching. ”

"Hahaha... Hahahaha......"

"Hey, pay attention to the image, don't laugh like a nymphomaniac. ”

When people are lonely and desperate, they are either crushed by pressure, or they simply bottom out and burst out with unprecedented power, and Mark clearly belongs to the latter.

After an initial period of despair, Mark finally decides to overcome the odds and save himself for the slim hope of survival.

He began to calculate how much food was stored in the base, and then found a place that he had overlooked before, that is, the base stored the rations of the entire scientific research team of six people for thirty-one days, and the key was that in order to prevent emergencies, the base also stored an extra month's rations.

According to Mark's calculations, he could have survived on these rations for about four hundred days.

Of course, this was not enough, after all, he had to hold out at least four years if he wanted to live, so he decided to start growing vegetables on Mars.

"Just like Brazilians can play football and French people know romance, in addition to table tennis, I think the most powerful talent of Chinese people is growing vegetables, and I happen to be a botanist. ”

"Now I hope that the one on Earth will work on Mars, so I'm going to make a thermostatic plastic shed now......"

Facing the camera, Mark's expression was obviously not the same as before, but full of fighting spirit, and the food stored in the base gave him hope for survival, and this hope literally lit up his whole world in the eyes of a person who was already desperate.

Holding potatoes in his hands, this is the crop that Mark decided to grow.

"It's still my food, but in a few days, he'll be my hope of survival, and I used to hate the fact that the astronauts used to make potatoes our staple, but now I really love them. ”

Speaking of this, Nie Wei also twisted his ass in front of the camera, singing indiscriminately: "Potato potato, I love potato..."

The audience at the scene was also amused by Nie Wei's funny on the screen, and the relaxed atmosphere gradually washed away the depression in the screening hall, just like the sparks on the screen, the black sandstorm finally passed, and the sparks ushered in the dawn again.

Of course, the planting process is not smooth and even a little dangerous.

After experiencing all kinds of difficulties such as explosions and collapses, the plastic shed was finally erected, and everything seemed to be on the right track.

The result is important, but the audience really feels the process of survival.

Nie Wei does have the skills of perfection in editing, because of the duration of the movie, Nie Wei has no way to elaborate on the details of the survival of the person.

But a good editor is able to cut some short clips wonderfully, so that the audience can not only feel the difficulty of surviving, but also do not need to watch it with a heavy heart.

is like a fertilizer problem, and the solution is ultimately the feces left by scientific researchers on Mars, looking at the disgusted expression of Mark played by Nie Wei when he stuffed two nasal plugs and cut those fecal bags, the audience was completely amused and laughed.

In order to make water for the plastic shed, Mark ignited hydrogen and was blown up, and when he reappeared in front of the camera, he was still covered in green smoke, and the audience was instantly amused and laughed.

Just laughing and watching, Mark's potato field was finished.

However, completion does not mean success, after all, this is Mars, the environment is completely different from the earth, whether potatoes can grow or not, this is a subject that no one has ever completed.

Finally on the forty-eighth day, when Mark passed by the plastic shed while eating breakfast, he subconsciously looked inside, and the next second, he was stunned.

When the audience saw Mark squatting down and touching a small potato sprout with his hand when he walked into the greenhouse, they were really moved from the bottom of their hearts.

The camera keeps zooming in, giving a close-up of this potato seedling, which represents the green of life, and also seems to represent the hope of Mark's life to continue.

Now that the food problem has been solved, all that remains is how to contact the earth for help.

During this time, Mark's distress signal has not been answered, and he still has no way to contact the other side of the earth.

At the same time, in Huaxia, there is also a group of people who are also looking for Mark.

Of course, they didn't know Mark was alive at this time, they just wanted to be able to find Mark's body.

By doing something collectively, there are pros and against, and there are many people who disagree with the use of satellites to find a dead person who has been defined, but fortunately, there are also people who insist, and finally some people who support the search for Mark won the consent of the director.

When in the enlarged satellite image, people saw pictures of the satellite vehicle's position changing back and forth, and the entire space center exploded.

However, there are still some doubts, but the changes in the picture negate all these doubts, and the people at the space center finally believe that Mark is still alive.

Just when the audience thought that the space center would launch a rescue immediately, an accident happened.

The people of the space center were divided into two groups and launched infighting, the reason is also very simple, an astronaut who was recognized by the space center and announced to the public that he had died was still alive, the key is that he may not have the ability to save this astronaut, he can only watch him die on Mars, if the news is announced, then the pressure of public opinion is too great.

Of course, more people still feel that they need to be saved.

"Why don't you save it, just because of face, it's really speechless. ”

"These characters are so annoying!"

"I'm still arguing here, if I have this time, I'll launch a spaceship to save people. ”

The audience was also anxious, and at this time, the person who had been fighting for Nie Wei stood up again and said something that silenced everyone.

"We'll never be able to understand what he's been through, he's alone on Mars 50 million miles away, and he thinks we've given up on him, what does that make a man think about right now?"

With this thought-provoking remark, the next second the camera switched to the Martian actor, and the loud music instantly broke the heavy atmosphere in the screening hall, and the audience was gloomy one second, and the next second they were amused by Nie Wei, who was listening to the song and dancing in the base.

"I'm sure those people at the space center will never guess what Mark is thinking or doing, hahahahaha!"

"Mark, you give me back my tears!"

But when Mark said the first sentence in front of the camera, the audience couldn't help but tremble.

"I'm going to die here......"

In a word, let all the audience at the scene follow the tightness of their hearts, is the joy just the appearance?

But in the next second, as Nie Wei complained about the outdated disco music, everyone couldn't help but show a sudden expression, feeling that he was not desperate, but because he was tired of listening to these music.

What made the audience feel even more annoyed was that they had just been shaken, but they didn't expect it to be less than ten seconds, and they were taken aback again.

I don't know how many people are crying and laughing at this moment, 'complaining' about Nie Wei's clever plot line design.
