sacrificed the splendor of the plot for the sake of technology, and it has almost become the "consensus" of Ang Lee's film "Gemini Killer". It seems that the revolutionary significance brought by the 120-frame playback technology to the film still needs time to test. The

movie tells the story of the US Defense Intelligence Agency agent Henry who was accidentally chased by a mysterious killer when he retired. In the fierce contest between the two, Henry discovered that the killer turned out to be himself, who was more than 20 years younger. A duel between me and "me" immediately began, and the truth behind it gradually emerged. The story of

"Gemini Killer" is not lacking, and the advancement of the technical dimension has not compromised the excitement of the story itself. Perhaps the title translated Gemini man as "killer", which gave the audience the anticipation of watching an "action movie" in advance. Therefore, the lingering "lyric" in the film will be criticized as "boring, antiquated, clichéd and weakened" Plot". But if you change your perspective and focus on "man", you will find that the film is actually a feature film with action elements, conveying the confusion and thinking of "self-confrontation". Although Li Ang believes that the 120-frame viewing experience brought to the audience is "far more than just listening to the story." But for ordinary people who pay for tickets, the demand for action movies is just "exciting." The different experiences brought by technological innovations and the profound thinking behind the story are far less than a wonderful fighting scene. Surprise.

In addition to the action scenes are not enough to "relieve hatred", the plot setting of "Father and Son" is also not pleasing. Some "old" views believe that Ang Lee is copying his previous routines: the three sets of father-son relationships presented-the "genuine" Henry and his copy junior, the villain adoptive father Wei Ruisi and Henry, Wei Ruisi and Xiao Ke made some viewers think that "Gemini Killer" still can't escape the conventional setting of Ang Lee's "father and son proposition". This preconceived prejudice deviates from the rhythm. In fact, as long as we dig into the text of the film, we will find that this is not a typical "father-hunting" story: Henry and Xiao Ke are not related by blood, but a mechanical copy, but there is a 20-year time difference; on the other hand, Henry He didn't really regard Wei Ruisi as his father. He didn't have the father-killing complex caused by the pain of the protagonist in the past, let alone seek the identity of the "creator", just want to simply get rid of control.

Many viewers believe that "Gemini Killer" is "the story is not technical enough to make up", and some people think that Ang Lee put too much emphasis on technological innovation, thereby weakening the plot of the story. In fact, the technology and the story are not separated, but the realistic environment constructed by the combination of scenery, depth, camera position, and lighting makes the traditional audience feel discomfort and offense. Whether it is the CG fictional actor Xiao Ke who can't see the flaws at all, or the sense of illusion brought by the story itself, it has subverted the audience's perception and aesthetics to a certain extent. Henry’s perfect body is like the original artwork with aura, while Xiao Ke is a cold metaphor of the copying era. The "reality" of Xiao Ke (replica) is performed, so "the more "real" the more" Fake".

"120 frames" has changed the way of viewing, on the canvas of the big screen, it has changed the "realness" of the physical scale, and brought the "realness" of the technical level. At this time, we may understand Li Ansuo Said "turn the technical format into one of the main narratives. "When the photo loses its authenticity more and more, the original fake movie provides the illusion of reality. This is also a way for the movie to dream (lie). If

is so, then we might as well let the bullet fly for a while. (Han Siqi )
