Office Chat wants to buy a teacup,
Open the shopping website and immediately "guess what you like" the teacup;
Complaining at home about not having high heels to wear,
Open mobile search engine ads banner is high heels ...
Do you suspect as much as I do that electronic devices are listening? And are you as inseparable from them as I am...
If you're like me, who occasionally thinks wildly, today's movie may bring us a little bit of comfort in addition to the horror.
The Douban score of "KIMI" is only 6.3 points, while on Rotten Tomatoes, the difference between film critics and audience ratings is quite large.
The content is more cliché, nothing more than the epidemic, big data, artificial intelligence, social networks, feminist movements...
And my personal experience is that a simple, straightforward little drama crime movie is not so intense.
I haven't seen a movie for an hour and a half in a long time, there are no extra branches, and the movie experience is not bad
01
Director Steven Soderbergh is well known, directing his screen debut in 1989, Sex, Lies and Tapes.
In 30 years, Soderbergh has directed 36 films, including TV series, and has mastered both high-cost and low-budget films.
In addition, he often acts as an editor and photographer, and can be regarded as an all-round player.
Interestingly, in promoting KIMI, Steven Soderbergh said in an interview that it was almost impossible for him to direct superhero movies, and the characters in the movies were almost asexual.
"I can tolerate superhero movies that distort time, overcome gravity, and my fingers can emit beams of light, and what I can't stand in this type of movie is that the people in the movies don't have sex." As far as I know, not only is there no sex in this fantasy world, but you also can't figure out who pays these heroes? Who do they work for? How is the job done? ”
He didn't say that I really didn't pay attention, and it was true that there was no bed scene in the super British theme.
Heroine Zoe Kravitz: The new version of Batman Catwoman.
I initially heard that Catwoman was going to compete among several black actors, but the actor who was selected in the end was really good.
Whether in temperament, figure or eyes, it is very close to the image of Catwoman.
It belongs to the type that can be sweet and salty, with a little charm in the coldness, and a hint of innocence in the maturity.
Zoe Kravitz has a good temperament and looks very rock and roll.
Her father was the well-known contemporary rock star Lenny Kravitz, while her mother, Lisa Bonett, was a brilliant actress.
In recent years, Zoe has been seen in some commercial blockbusters, the strong personality Tost in Mad Max: Fury Road.
Rita Lestrand in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.
Young Hollywood stars, mostly dabbling in superhero movies.
In 2011, Zoe Kravitz was impressed by her role in the film X-Men: First Battle, starring as the angel Salvador.
In this "KIMI", Zoe plays a technical deep house, hiding at home every day and not daring to go out.
However, in the process of revising the code, she found a recording of a suspected murder. At this time, not being able to go out has become a problem...
Spoilers begin below

The film begins with Brad, the CEO of Amidara, giving a wired interview at his home.
Kimi is their company's artificial intelligence speech recognition system. He was asked what was the difference between Kimi and Siri and Alexa.
Siri needless to say, Alexa is Amazon's voice assistant.
Spit on Kimi's trigger command, the children in the family can not take this name.
In simple terms, ordinary speech recognition systems cannot learn all the time, and when they are not perfect, artificial intelligence can only be upgraded through a regular major update.
But Kimi is different, its bug feedback is distributed around the world programmers every day to make changes to make it more user-friendly.
Such a modification will ensure that Kimi understands humans better and is more like a person who can communicate with you.
This is not a good idea, because if the equipment is widely spread out, the number of staff required is a huge number.
In addition, communication between people will have a deviation in understanding, and everyone's speaking habits will be different.
A person's manual correction of a piece of AI's misconceptions may create more ambiguity and bias.
But it doesn't matter, the movie is set up like this, we can only accept it, and Kimi's company is about to go public.
However, Brad seems to have some secrets, and a man with the name R in the notes calls him for money.
In short, this capitalist is very suspicious, we keep this doubt, first look at the heroine's side.
Angela has a severe "prodigy", is afraid of public places, and almost never goes out.
Whether it's a doctor or a date, Angela can only be at home, and the psychologist is also a video treatment and then prescribes some medicine to her.
Angela has a good friend, Terry, who lives in the opposite building.
They all communicate through cell phones, men come to the door to serve.
In this regard, Terry complained that he longed for outdoor dating.
When Angela's friend complained that she had made up fake life on social media, Angela replied: Everyone is like this.
The upstairs neighbor was also upset because he couldn't renovate his own floor.
Angela is always at home during the day, and she can't accept the noise.
The plot progresses on a normal weekday when Angela receives a voice recorded by Kimi.
Heard the whole process of a strange woman being domestically abused and murdered.
While the CEO denies that Kimi will eavesdrop on users' conversations, it denies that it can find the corresponding customer's private information based on the encoding.
However, Angela still retrieved all the records and the user information of the other party through the internal system.
Privacy or something, doesn't exist.
Arriving at the company's headquarters, Angela found that not only was there no one to help her, but the source files in the system had been emptied.
Because the male protagonist who has a copy of the recording in her hand is CEO Brad.
Subsequently, she is tracked down and kidnapped, and Bled wants to send someone to kill her again.

The second half of the film progresses quickly, the ending is also a reunion, and the whole story is not very unusual.
Smart devices created by the capitalists themselves record their own criminal processes.
And finally, Kimi's whole-house intelligent system saved the heroine and neighbors at a critical moment.
It's a little clever and ironic, but it's too "expected".
The upstairs decoration team is not useless, Angela uses a decorated nail gun, with Kimi's lighting, to kill her kidnappers.
The neighbor opposite, Kevin, made a simple laying in front,
Like a voyeur, always very suspicious.
But as a fat man who also doesn't go out, Kevin understands that she is in trouble the moment he sees Angela out.
There is no need to contact, or even to know, it can be said that the heart of the "deep house" has a sharp mind.
It can be seen that Kevin is very concerned about Angela and has a slight affection, and heroically stepped forward and was seriously injured.
However, in the finale, Angela, who overcame the fear of going out, still lived happily with her boyfriend.
From the perspective of the heroine Angela, she is in a state of "going out to indicate danger", which also represents the current epidemic environment.
There are many hints in the film that she once suffered from some kind of stimulation and suffered from mental illness.
But it doesn't go into the story, the director really keeps the plot as brief as possible.
In addition, as we mentioned earlier, after watching this movie, many people first thought of Hitchcock's movie "Rear Window".
The plot of the film is also simple: photographer Jeffries needs to rest at home for two months because of a work injury.
During this time when he could not go out at home, he was bored and could only watch the daily life of his neighbors in front of the window.
He found that on the second floor of the apartment opposite, there lived a couple who were constantly arguing and arguing.
One rainy night, Jeffries saw the husband carrying a large suitcase back and forth to the apartment many times.
The next day, the husband wrapped a saw and a knife in the newspaper at home, and his wife, who had quarreled with him, disappeared.
Jeffries became suspicious, suspecting that the man on the other side had killed his partner and had been thrown away.
Immediately, Jeffries, with the assistance of his girlfriend, launches a tense investigation...
Until the end of the film, Hitchcock does not reveal the mystery, but the whole process is enough to make people sweat.
This is a classic movie from the 1950s, and although there are no scene changes, the whole process is not boring at all.
Incorporating modern equipment, KIMI director Steven Soderbergh seems to have reworked Rear Window.
I am also a "deep house" and do not like to go out very much.
Of course, it has not yet reached the level of mental illness of the heroine, Angela is yearning to go out but can't overcome the psychological obstacles, and I don't want to go out at all.
In general, I can voice I absolutely do not video, can type I absolutely do not voice.
In this era when takeaway delivery is delivered upstairs and work can be done from home, it is not necessary to go downstairs for a week or just throw away a garbage.
Most of the reasons are that I'm not good at communicating with people.
It's easy for me to write a few thousand words casually, but if I had to open my mouth and make a long speech, I'm afraid I'd need to prepare a few days of speeches.
Being reticent since I was a child has become a habit of life for me, especially in the face of strangers, I am often nervous and anxious because I don't know how to resolve embarrassment.
Due to my lack of personality, I have also preferred my other half or good friends who like to laugh since I was a child.
Because of this, I can give the burden of finding topics and resolving embarrassment to others.
Escaping one's progress and growth on the short board does not seem to be a particularly good thing.
Being able to talk calmly and calmly is an attractive feature and temperament, whether at work or in love, it is a plus.
Shortly after Valentine's Day, I wish everyone will meet the person who knows how to appreciate you.
