Chapter 211: Science fiction is people-oriented, it's on fire!
[Thank you to my 'Si Wuxie' brother 1888 for the reward, thank you.] On Friday, please support! γ
"Source Code" is all about suspense and thriller, and a lot of information has been revealed in the trailer. Hu Yifei's Hu Ke keeps entering the body of a strange passenger and uses the 8 minutes before the explosion to find the real culprit. The traditional main line of this type is to chase the murderer, that is, to find out who caused the train explosion and prevent the next more serious terrorist attack. Of course, this kind of plot direction has been used many times, and it has long been played with clichΓ©s.
There is a premise in the movie that in the 8 minutes before the train explodes, the train will stop for one stop, some people will get off the train, and some people will get on the train, which is equivalent to opening a back door to the "source code", and the edge of the "source code" is no longer inside the train, but extends to the whole world.
The first is the "crossing" again and again, and the direct feeling to the audience is the game reading file, and I believe that some people who play more console games should feel the same way. The film is impeccable now, and the sense of involvement is very good, especially in this era, giving the audience a feeling of extreme freshness.
Sitting in a movie theater is like sitting in a large game simulation cabin, and the character is Hook, the pilot.
Every time the task fails, read the file and then try all kinds of ways to complete the task, and by the way, solve the family and love tasks of the branch.
This is also the wonderful part of the film in terms of narrative mode, like a gamer playing a game but wondering if he is really playing a game.
Even Han Sanpin and the others, who were anxious at the beginning, couldn't help but indulge in it. Not to mention other domestic film critics and guests, "It's really science fiction, and it's so fascinating, it's incredible!" β
Although a compact and engaging plot is suitable for science fiction films, it may not be possible to make a good science fiction film in this way, nor may it be possible to make a good soft science fiction film, let alone a good soft science fiction film that is thought-provoking. In fact, the key is not the plot, not the picture, not the star, not the scale, the key is whether there is humanity. Especially in places like film festivals, which pay more attention to the depth of literary films, it is still a matter of human nature to pretend to be 13 points.
Naturally, there is no lack of humanity in this film, and the captain played by Fan Binbin is that key role.
When everyone uses the pilot as a tool for planning, the pilot is an independent soul in the eyes of Fan Binbin, who has thoughts, feelings and his own world. But apart from Fan Binbin, who will pay attention to this?
The Doctor's intentions may have been good at first, but after success, they swelled up and got out of control: the other participants in the plan would at most think that it would be the greatest mercy for him to free the pilot from the fate of death and continue to serve his country with half and three-quarters of his brain, and as for the rest, everything came according to their arrangement.
But Hu Yifei's implanted concept of humanity is not allowed, and he firmly believes in one thing: no matter how good a science fiction film is, it is also people-oriented.
I'm sorry, people are not guinea pigs for experiments, even if there is not much left of the body, but the spirit is still intact, which also determines that all kinds of science fiction films about memory transplantation or changing the body must have one thing in common - the integrity of the brain.
Fan Binbin's duty was originally to act with the pilot and assign tasks, but her conscience made her grit her teeth again and again, and finally she chose to follow her heart and respected the pilot's opinion, and the moment she pressed the stop button was also one of the most touching moments for the audience so far.
When Fan Binbin saw this scene, he couldn't help but whistle, and he didn't feel anything when he was filming. I didn't expect the effect to be so good after the film was completed. And when you wear a uniform, it's just bubbling. However, when I thought of Lin Zhiling and Hu Yifei having a kiss scene, I felt a little unhappy.
The movie continues, and the pilot himself is also a big carrier of human nature, and his human nature is not only family love, but also has an attitude towards the person in charge of others. He found the culprit, but didn't defuse the bomb, and although the purpose of the source code project had been achieved, even if he knew that this was a memory of the past and that reality might not be changed, he had to be worthy of his efforts to save the people on the train and the citizens of Shanghai (just as the same real player needs more than a Good-End, they need Perfect).
The attitude of being responsible for those who have only a few 8 minutes of life intersection that they have never met is also a reflection of the face of some utilitarians in reality: they claim to be fraternity, but in fact they either sacrifice some people for the sake of the so-called collective, or they use the guise of the so-called savior to seek their own interests (the doctor asked the Ministry of Defense for more money after finding the culprit).
The human color of this film is still reflected through contrast.
The film comes to an end, and in the last eight-minute loop, Hook has overtaken a changed person. He easily predicts the future, dodges the spilled Coke on his shoes, has a humorous conversation with the ticket inspector, humorously asks the irritable business operator to turn off the computer, and suggests that he pay attention to the beautiful world. also took out 500 yuan and asked the depressed comedian to perform for everyone in the carriage.
This classic joke that imitates the English of various countries did not disappoint the audience, and many people watched it with relish, and even began to care about who this dragon comedian was.
"What would you want to do if you had only one minute left to live?"
This is a very discussable proposition, there may be 10,000 answers in 10,000 people, and the actor also gave his own answer. In the expectation of the audience, he hugged the heroine Lin Zhiling, and then kissed the heroine deeply.
The train exploded at the moment when the two were kissing.
The audience couldn't help but feel the urge to applaud, "Perfect ending." β
Many people thought that it was enough for the movie to stop at that kiss at the end, but Hu Yifei didn't want to stop there.
If that's the end of that kiss, then my understanding is that this film can be seen as a science film: the pilot's body and the body of Hooke, the victim of the train bombing, are placed together, and their brains are connected by a device that uses the pilot to manipulate Hook's last 8 minutes of life.
In the end, the task was completed, the instrument was turned off, and everyone ate, drank, washed, and slept. There is absolutely no parallel world involved. But the setting of the ending determines that this film is a science fiction film rather than a science film, if you use the parallel world theory to explain, every time the pilot "crosses", a parallel world is constructed, if you don't use the parallel world theory, the last time the pilot "crossed" the Yuan Dynasty plan accidentally became a time machine + spirit implant machine, the pilot returned to the past as Hook and changed everything, but such a violent modification of history will inevitably have the emergence of the "grandmother paradox".
Therefore, from this point of view, the parallel world theory is more reliable. But Hu Yifei didn't actually explain what the theory of this film was, but just threw out an ending for the audience to guess by themselves, and it wasn't until the end that the audience woke up like a dream: "Damn! This is still a parallel world! β
At the end of the movie, Hu Yifei was resurrected again, walking on the bustling Bund in Shanghai with his girlfriend Lin Zhiling, looking at the surrounding high-rise buildings. The color in his eyes suddenly changed, and the whole world was filled with colorful silk threads in both of his eyes. Hu Yifei copied the setting of "Super Body" here, making the whole world look virtual. Of course, this has been taken to the extreme in The Matrix. He gently flicked the colored silk threads, which seemed to have flowing 0 and 1 codes. Picked up the phone and called the police......
The scene suddenly returns to the laboratory. Fan Binbin received a phone call, saying that the terrorists had been caught, and the person who reported it was Hu Ke, who was lying in the freezer half of the body left, and couldn't help but be stunned, and then said a sentence: "...... Source code plans are no longer needed. β
At the moment when the movie ended, all the film critics and guests felt that they had let Hu Yifei smash it again, this is simply a movie created with sincerity but completely unable to delve into it, if anyone is entangled in the problems in the movie, they will fall into the ditch and can't climb up.
The big screen suddenly went dark, with a large font, "Hu Yifei's work", and then the logo of the family film company appeared again, and then subtitles appeared in the ending music.
The audience didn't know who was the first to applaud, and it soon became a blockbuster applause, which lasted for a long time.
Even if it is a little commercial, it cannot be ignored, this is a masterpiece.
Those film critics in China are even more excited, it is so surprising that such a classic science fiction movie can appear in China, what a big surprise. The slap is even harder, and I can't wait for the god to shout. In today's stagnant domestic film market, you either follow the trend, or desperately pile up money and stars to pile up big scenes, but most directors can't even tell a story clearly, how can this kind of movie be appreciated.
But Hu Yifei has done it, two years after his debut, every work is constantly changing and innovating, and each work brings the audience full of novelty. It's really commendable, no wonder so many viewers like to watch his movies and TV.
This is a proof of strength.
The main creators who stayed at the scene were also excited, hugged one after another, and came to the stage to pay tribute.
The audience did not leave, but all stood up and applauded, and the applause did not stop. Everyone is congratulating the pair of cuddling creators.
I used to hear that the five-minute applause at the Cannes Film Festival lasted for a long time, and maybe you had to doubt the authenticity, but it was actually true. There was really that long applause. Many domestic audiences have verified this miracle with their own experience.
The chairman of the film festival was also excited, the use of "Source Code" as the opening ceremony film was actually the result of a lot of entanglement, but I didn't expect to really make a good move, no matter if it didn't win the award in the end, at least it was a good start for the film festival, didn't it.
"It worked, it was great!"
"Congratulations, a wonderful movie!"
"Thank you, thank you."
"Director Hu, why didn't you see others."
"Oh, he went to the hospital shortly after the movie started."
