Before watching "Gemini Killer", I found that the word-of-mouth of this movie on the Internet is quite subtle. Many people think that Li Anma has missed the front line, and even thinks that he has made a bad movie, and feels that he has not played his own storytelling and To dig out the strengths of emotions, but to spend too much energy on the skills that they are not good at.
Watching a movie is actually the same as a pony crossing a river. It is a very personal experience. Other people's comments can be used as a reference, but you still need to watch it yourself before you know what it is. But after I went to the cinema to watch this film, I found Li An rather courageous. Who else understands his own strengths better than himself? He may understand better than anyone else, but he just wants to shoot different themes and styles, and he doesn't need his own strengths to paralyze himself, so he is quite sober. What's more, even though this movie is not Ang Lee’s best work, it can’t be said to be a terrible movie—if "Gemini Killer" is labelled a “bad movie”, it will be other real bad movies. Where is it placed? The game discussion about technology and ethics in the movie
is actually not new. The relationship between the cloned person and the cloned person is very delicate. It is not strictly the elders and juniors, nor the friends of the same generation, but more like two shadows on different timelines. The parallel chasing of the car in the movie is very exciting, and it concretely presents the subtle relationship between the cloned human and the cloned body. However, my own depth of thought may be limited, and I always feel that the film's discussion on the ethics of cloning is limited, and even a little superficially simplified. Or, the size of a movie is limited after all. Perhaps the video story is like an introduction, just the beginning of the audience's thinking on a certain issue. At the end of the
movie, Henry couldn't help but want to give life advice to the young cloned Junior 20 or 30 years younger than him, hoping that he would not repeat the same mistakes, and the young man smiled: "I want to take some detours by myself." Interesting What’s more, I think the fact that Ang Lee made this movie vividly interprets the sentence "I want to go by myself in some detours"—knowing that this will be a detour without flowers or waves of praise. However, at this intersection, I still chose a path that few people walked on and went on. In the
movie, Henry did not continue to impose his wishes and the so-called life advice of the people who passed by, but laughed. Such a head-up attitude of "I would like to provide advice, but the decision is still yours" is still very extravagant and rare among contemporary parents and children. In my opinion, Ang Lee’s shaping of the relationship between Henry and Junior in this movie is quite ideal-looking at the past "me", I don't want to change that "me", but patiently Peacefully watched "me" become another me. Perhaps, from a certain level, this is also a kind of "I deal with me for a long time, and I would rather be me".
