"Moon: So Will Love Disappear?"
"Hahaha, that's a great idea, I'm suddenly interested in this movie!"
"More than great, I dare say if this were in a Western country, such an idea wouldn't exist. Only in China, with the Confucian family culture passed down, would they think of taking the Blue Star to run. After all, Western thought only leads humanity to flee in spaceships."
"Just this initial concept gives me a strange sense of belonging!"
"Indeed, perhaps this is what Old Thief Jiangnan meant by making a sci-fi film for Chinese people?"
"Judging by the current visuals, the special effects are on par with Western sci-fi blockbusters, and the plot is also highly anticipated. I'm looking forward to the quality of the entire film!"
Besides the conflict of digital life at the opening, the film also touches upon the solar crisis.
These two events are enough to pique the audience's anticipation, making them even more curious about what happens next, how the conflicts will be resolved, and how the crisis will be overcome.
Liu Peiqiang and his mentor Zhang Peng participate in the talent selection for the "Moving Mountain Plan." This is where the female lead, Han Duoduo, appears. She subdues a troublemaker with force, making a very cool entrance.
The lead actor, Liu Peiqiang, decides on his son's name the moment he first sees Han Duoduo.
The few small comedic moments here alleviate the sense of impending doom somewhat.
However, no one expected that the moment Liu Peiqiang and the others boarded the "space elevator" and the elevator began to ascend.
Accompanied by stirring music, the camera switches to the space elevator.
Watching the space elevator rise from the ground straight into the clouds.
"Shout all you want, kids, in ten seconds you'll pass out. A space elevator at ninety thousand kilometers, the tallest structure in human history. This is your starting point for the moon. The fate of humanity rests with you!"
Soaring ninety thousand li!
This single scene alone ignites the passion within the audience!
Especially with the excellent sound system in the cinema, the stirring music in their ears, combined with the immersive experience of the 3D visuals, the visual impact causes many people to feel a sense of vertigo, just like the characters in the movie!
...
On the day of the selection, a transitional scene depicts the developing romance between Liu Peiqiang and Han Duoduo.
The story takes a turn when Liu Peiqiang goes to give Han Duoduo flowers.
Just as the plot is light and cheerful, the base system is suddenly invaded, drones fly out, and the space elevator loses control.
"Work overtime immediately, are we getting paid for it?"
"Ouch, you tripped me!"
Amidst such thrilling plot points, the screenwriter also inserts some small jokes, which the audience finds amusing.
This aerial combat sequence can be considered a grand spectacle.
Coupled with the abundant special effects in post-production, the visuals are incredibly realistic, making the audience feel thoroughly entertained!
Liu Peiqiang's exhilarating fight scene inside the space elevator also reminds the audience of "Wolf Warrior," and it is incredibly spectacular!
"Cannot lock on! Cannot lock on! All friendly fire!!"
Zhang Peng's combat sequence, coordinating with his teammates, causes the audience in the theater to lose composure. Especially the distinctly Northeastern phrase "All friendly fire!!" and "Hurry up and call for backup," which makes the audience burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, are we sure this is a disaster film and not a comedy?"
"Whenever I see Teacher Chen Jinzhou, I can't help but laugh. He's probably the comedic relief in this movie!"
"Overall, this movie seems to tell a story of disaster in a humorous and comedic style."
"It's quite good, at least it's a relaxing watch."
"Just for the space elevator and the aerial combat scenes, it's already worth the ticket price. This is undoubtedly the best movie with special effects in the domestic entertainment industry!"
With intense action, humor, very realistic special effects, and solid acting, this movie is already worth the ticket price based on these aspects alone!
Film critic Cao Weiming, as usual, brings his notebook to record the highlights of the movie.
At this moment, he has already written several lines in his notebook.
"Top-tier special effects, visually impactful and realistic."
"Innovative plot, taking the Blue Star out of the solar system, incorporating some Confucian ideology unique to the East."
"Actors' performances are solid, the plot pacing is fast."
"Full of laughs, the style leans towards comedy."
After writing the last point, he closes his notebook.
These are all the noteworthy points he has seen so far, and they will be the aspects he will focus on in his review once he leaves.
...
Through the efforts of Liu Peiqiang and Han Duoduo.
They prevent the explosion and save everyone on the space elevator.
Before the crowd can celebrate,
A colossal entity descends from the sky.
With an earth-shattering oppressive force, it crashes down!
"Space station falling..."
"Repeat, space station falling..."
The eerie soundtrack, coupled with the desperate visuals and Zhang Peng's broadcast.
The previously lighthearted atmosphere suddenly turns somber.
Debris, corpses in the ruins, and the wounded all tell the audience that this is a disaster film.
In the hospital, Zhang Peng finds Liu Peiqiang, pokes his forehead three times, and the unspoken emotions that erupt between them as they look at each other make many viewers' hearts ache.
This is the shock and emotion that comes with acting, this is the satisfying immersion when watching a high-quality film!
After a transitional scene.
The conflict between "digital life" and the "Moving Mountain Plan" is re-established.
China insists on proceeding with the Moving Mountain Plan.
And their stance is very firm.
"Ninety years ago, the picture of the Blue Star taken by your Voyager One was this tiny white dot, which is all we have!"
"The Moving Mountain Plan is to build ten thousand engines on this tiny white dot and take it to our new home in two thousand five hundred years. Mike, do you believe it?"
"Just a wanderer, only looked back once..."
"I believe it, my children will believe it, and their children will believe it. By then, I believe we will see blue skies again, with flowers blooming on the branches."
This dialogue from the Chinese representative, Teacher Zhou Zhezhi, perfectly expresses the core message of the film.
Facing the Moving Mountain Plan, Western countries are not entirely convinced, but China remains steadfast, even if it means wandering with the planet for two thousand five hundred years, they still hold the most unwavering faith. This is the Chinese spirit of "passing down the torch"!
The camera shifts.
The conversation between Teacher Zhou and Xiaoxi also prompts many audience members to reflect.
"Seven months, two engines, only us, this isn't fair."
"Xiaoxi, if everything were fair, why would we build this building? In times of crisis, there is only responsibility. Unity comes at a price."
Upon hearing this line.
Even Cao Weiming couldn't help but want to applaud!
