a brief evaluation

Rating: 9/10 (11 April 2020)

Star Wars ushered in a kind of transcendence
The genre -- space exploration theme, and the film orientation of heterogeneous spectacle has been extended until now, and the genre has evolved into the basic aesthetics of today's "digital Hollywood blockbuster"
The principle. '2001: a space Odyssey' met with a cold reception at the box office and from the audience, and it wasn't until years later that anyone reconsidered its artistic merit.

But why the difference? It is necessary to go back to the comparison of the two films' creative orientations. "Star Wars" reduces the content of humanity to zero as much as possible, and its story returns to the ancient "mythological" attribute of women and children
Children can understand the binary opposition of good and evil. The simplicity of the plot gives a great deal of room for visual expression. Lucas endlessly zoomed in on the movie's alien spectacle list
Now, try to please the audience's eyes as much as possible.

Thus, this kind of film through the performance of heterogeneous spectacle, let the audience at that time surprise! Just like the lumiere brothers first showed the train to the station, audience
Overwhelmed by their visual deception, they experienced something out of the ordinary.
