氛围上是很够味的sci-fi noir,比起设定相似的某几部科幻片,个人倒觉得这部跟90年代那波复古noir-ish犯罪片更一脉相承,主要考虑到这片科幻层面不太够*硬*以及各处大大小小对老黑片的致敬。镜头、台词、表演的节奏都非常contemplative,一不小心就会很傻但幸好此片火候把握得还行。感情线基本靠配乐煽及格了,simulation within a simulation也不算太意外的反转。另外男主的30年代造型很Robert Taylor+John Boles。
If someone prayed for the family to be closer, do you think God zaps them with warm fuzzy feelings, or does he give them opportunities to love each other?”
