01 "On the Moon"
In order to save the earth from the impact of asteroids, human beings have deployed the Lunar Shield plan on the moon. The meteorite struck early, and when all the staff were evacuated urgently, the maintenance worker Duguyue ( Shen Teng ) missed the evacuation notice from the team leader Ma Lanxing ( Ma Li ) because of an accident, and fell on the moon alone. Unexpectedly, the Moon Shield plan failed, and Duguyue became the "last human being in the universe" and began his life of breaking jars on the moon...
Douban Introduction
The story unfolds with Duguyue's desire to return to the earth as the main line, and finally Sacrificing himself for the safety of the earth, a lone hero is born. The overall look and feel of
is not very funny, Shen Ma's emotional line is inexplicable, the space scene is very beautiful and romantic, and the depiction of hope is a bit shallow, the setting of kangaroo feels that you can change it to any animal, change it to an evolved monkey, Primates like orangutans, or even robots, feel more plausible. The heroic sacrifice at the end is a bit moving but not much.
02 Storytelling
A movie is a story, and it's hard to tell a story well.
The story of "Walking on the Moon", I don't think it's well told. The combination of comedy and sci-fi, and mixed with love elements, I feel that each module involves a bit, but not many, combined together, there is a kind of comedy Some are not funny, and some are not rigorous in science fiction.
A good story has a clear main line, driven by side lines, full of characters, a logical plot, and profound meaning, and these elements are very broken in this film.
-Is the main mission of Duguyue going back to Earth, or is it "love" with Ma Lanxing? And the name of Ma Lanxing here is the same as that of the earth, and it has a meaning of protecting the earth.
-Discuss loneliness, a person's lonely life on the moon, or a group of people living in the dark underground, which one needs more encouragement and hope? How can a person's loneliness become the hope of a group of people?
- The impact of meteorites can destroy the existence of the earth. How many craters are there when it hits the moon? The fact that the space suit is not broken may be the result of technological development. The base is complete, so it seems that this kind of impact will not cause the people of the Moon Shield Project to evacuate. But I have to say that Brother Teng and Gangzi fly over the big crater, and the picture with the moon as the background is really romantic.
- an excellent engineer, fell in love with Ma Lanxing at first sight, and chose to be the maintenance worker of the Moon Shield Project. It seems that everything can be sacrificed for love, but there is no confession on the moon. The final confession is done by letter, which is somewhat inconsistent with the technological setting and seems a little backward.
03 One attempt at
The last sci-fi film that made the public cheer was the " Wandering Earth " released in 2019. It has been three years since the number of sci-fi films was very small. "Lonely Walking on the Moon" is a combination of comedy and science fiction. Although there are many slots, it is worthy of praise for such a theme. The first shot of
may not be very good, but if you try a few times, there may be good works of movies of this type.
I like comedy films and sci-fi films. The combination of the two, plus a good story, is worth looking forward to!
Postscript: When
talked about hope in the movie, I burst into tears involuntarily.
The word hope is very attractive and hopeful, as if the light that I want to achieve is in the distance, just like the little green plant in the movie, which can also bloom under the dark ground. In any case, there is hope, as if there is hope for survival. The
picture comes from the free genuine picture of Toutiao,
