recently watched "Gemini Killer" with his friends, and it was very enjoyable regardless of the plot and public opinion. The various special effects looked super cool, as if they had experienced a visual feast. There are also many different voices on

online for this film. Some people say that the plot of "Gemini Killer" is relatively ordinary, relying only on the highlight of special effects, and I am very disappointed with this film. Some people think that although the plot is general, and there are even some bugs in the plot, after watching it, the villain's IQ is somewhat problematic, but the effect of the special effects is great. In the eyes of a thousand people, there are a thousand Hamlet or turnip greens.

1, "Diet Men and Women" VS "Gemini Killer", has Director Ang Lee changed?

From "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" to "Brokeback Mountain", Director Li has always been a well-recognized strength group. As a super-sensitivity foodie author, his favorite is his "Diet Men and Women", which is about The story of eating and love. The picture of Lao Zhu cooking gives people a very practical feeling. Director Li's thoughts are particularly delicate. Under his lens, both the people and the food appear meaningful. The joys, sorrows, sorrows and personality changes of the characters are expressed smoothly in the movie.

If "Diet Men and Women" shows the joys, sorrows, sorrows, emotions and lives of Lao Zhu and his daughters. So "Gemini Killer" discussed more about the meaning of human existence and the exploration of the roots of human beings. When Henry met his cloned self, he began to wonder whether he or the cloned self is the real one. One is his own source. Although the person who was cloned is not his own son, he is also a part of himself. He is thinking while fighting the clone.

Director Li is clever. He talks about emotions and life with delicacies and meals, and makes the original life of odds and ends lively and vivid, and the joy and helplessness of people are fully displayed. This time, he abandoned food and smooth shots, using the coolest technology to interpret another plain and slightly old-fashioned story, making this story more dynamic and bringing visual and psychological infection and impact to people. Director Li has not changed, whether he is shooting food or using the latest technology, he has been working hard to keep his movies up to date!

2, Will Smith: A good actor who can rap!

The author is still very impressed with Will Smith, and I like "When happiness comes knocking" starring him. In the movie, with his messy hair, he led his youngest son to make a living and finally got his own happiness. There are many actors in this world, and some people are born suitable to be actors. Will is one of them, whether it is the father who runs for a living in "When Happiness Knocks" or Henry, who has been fighting continuously in "Gemini Killer", He is fully integrated into the role he plays. Acting against the child needs to fully mobilize his feelings, while the action scenes need to consume too much energy. It can be seen that Will is going all out for each drama to make the play The character becomes three-dimensional and real.

In "Gemini Killer", he plays two roles, one is the current self and the other is the young self. When he plays the young self, he needs special effects to modify his face. The application of special effects sounds very easy, but it is indeed very complicated and tedious to use. This requires the cooperation of actors over and over again, and Will needs to act two characters, so you need to be familiar with the psychology of the two people and their actions. It requires a high degree of concentration and cooperation.

Will's performance in "Gemini Killer" is also very good, even if it is divided into two roles, there is no flaw in the whole movie. The last two people reconciled the bridge is also very moving.

3, Director Li wants to express through this movie?

As a successful director, why did Ang Lee risk being scolded to shoot this movie? I think this is exactly what Director Li is respectable. When he became famous, he continued to explore, try new ways of expression in movies, and try to use technology to interpret contradictory feelings. In "Gemini Killer", the kind of nonsense that is said to be less, the fun of explaining after playing enough and tired is only the special effects technology that can be well presented.

In the "Gemini Killer", when the older Henry and the young clone were fighting, Director Lee was also vaguely expressing the reality. Director Lee also experienced N rounds of contests with his younger self in the dead of night. I like my current achievements and my steady self, and I also miss the rebelliousness of my youth. "doubleThe clone of Henry in "Son Killer" actually corresponds to the imaginary enemy in Dao Li's heart. Dao Li is no longer young. He misses the good times when he was young and hates the inaction when he was young. In addition, in the "Gemini Killer", Henry finally reconciled with the clone, which can be regarded as Li and the young self to relieve their previous suspicions. As a director, Director Li doesn't want to spend his old age on the basis of his existing fame. He wants to prove his strength at the box office again, and he wants to prove his worth with more expressions.

In addition, "Gemini Killer" also vaguely reflects Director Li's reflection on biotechnology. Regarding cloning and artificial humans, when a person creates himself, the created one becomes his own vassal without a reasonable ID card. He is neither biological nor sibling in blood, but has become a weapon used by the villain in the movie, and is in danger of being replaced at every turn. Do we really need a clone to live for us again? There is no standard answer to this question, but I think people can only experience life when they come to the world to live once, and they have their own definition of life and the world.

integrates the entire "Gemini Killer", from special effects to plot to actors and character settings. If the total score is 10 points, cool special effects are given 7 points, and plots are given 3 points. Regarding the comments that many people have given to Director Li, I just want to say: it is difficult to be a man, difficult to be a director, and difficult to be a well-known director! Please be merciful and look forward to more exciting performances from Director Li!
