An extremely moving existential drama
Tom Hanks is relaxing at home with his loyal dog, Goodyear. He’s reading a book, but its title gives away the fact that life isn’t exactly blissful for him.
In “The Sandman,” actor Michael Fassbender portrays a man who is living a life on the edge. After escaping a sandstorm, he is seen wearing a UV suit, which indicates that his life is in danger and that he has more to worry about than the daily commute home. ..
Finch is a man who has lost most of his family in an apocalypse that has destroyed the earth’s ozone layer. He lives in a land where there is only Dewey and himself for company. Finch is trying to find ways to survive and make the most of his time alone.
Finch is a powerful and stirring story of the power of love and sacrifice, set against the backdrop of World War II. It’s an expertly directed film that will leave audiences feeling inspired and motivated to do something good in the world.
Like the film Bios, which was due for release by Universal Studios but was cancelled because of a real-life event that threatened the population, the impact of Finch remains unchanged in its transition to television. ..
While there are moments that are epic in scale, with sandstorms and scenes of urban desolation that are frightening to behold, this is more a human drama, and not a disaster flick akin to Geostorm or any number of Roland Emmerich films.
The film’s antagonist, a giant, machine-like being known as the Machine, is voiced by Cillian Murphy and is one of the most impressive and terrifying CGI creations to date. Murphy brings a level of menace and intelligence to the character that is both chilling and mesmerizing. The Machine represents everything that is wrong with our world today - it’s soulless, it’s destructive, and it’s unstoppable. But despite all this, it also represents something infinitely more important - human potential. The Machine is a symbol of what we can become if we let ourselves be consumed by our own destruction. But in the end, Finch manages to defeat the Machine by using his own humanity to fight back against it. Tom Hanks gives an excellent performance as Finch in “The Revenant.” He shows a full range of human emotions as only an actor of his caliber can, but there is another character in the film that symbolises what it means to be human: The Machine. The Machine represents everything that is wrong with our world today-it’s soulless, destructive and unstoppable-but also represents human potential. In the end Finch manages to defeat the machine by using his own humanity against it. ..
Jeff is a droid that was created by Caleb Landry-Jones and is voiced by Jeff. He is a machine that is alive to the thoughts, emotions, and feelings that affect every one of us.
The relationship between Finch and Jeff is the key to the film’s success. They are both struggling with their personal relationships and their roles in the world, and their journey together is a powerful example of how two people can work together to overcome any obstacle.
Despite the film’s post-apocalyptic landscape, don’t expect the horrors of The Road or the action-packed battles that exist in the Mad Max series of films. This is more of an existential drama and is one that is extremely moving. It’s a rather sad tale at its heart, largely because of the tragic situation that causes Finch to create Jeff as his second robot companion. But despite the sense of sadness that prevails, this isn’t as sombre a drama as similar entries in the post-apocalyptic genre. ..
Jeff is a likable and comedic character who provides some light relief in “The Shape of Water.” He is initially confused and uncomfortable with his new body, but he quickly adapts. As the story progresses, Jeff starts to worry about why he was created and what his purpose may be. This is a surprisingly serious tale at times, largely thanks to Jeff’s thoughts on the matter. You will probably be surprised by the emotional depth of the characters and the plot developments in “The Shape of Water.” ..
Finch’s film is very topical, as it deals with the destruction of the planet due to a solar flare. The film lets us know that humans are responsible for their own destruction and that we need to take care of our environment.
Still, don’t expect a film that sermonizes the need to go green! There are certainly ecological lessons to be learned from Finch but its biggest focus is on the responsibility we have to the people closest to us. Through the three major relationships featured in the film – Finch and Goodyear, Finch and Jeff, and Jeff and Goodyear – we are taught the importance of loving and protecting one another on a small rather than universal scale.
The film is great, but it’s not just Tom Hanks that makes it so. The other actors are also very good, and the film is well-made overall.
Jeff is a broken man, and Landry Jones does an excellent job of showing us the emotional pain that comes with that. He’s funny and sad, and his performance makes you care for him even more.
This sand-swept tale is one of the best films I have seen in a while and is one that will sit with me in the days, weeks, and months to come. It’s a story about a group of people who are forced to leave their home planet after it’s destroyed by an alien threat. The characters are interesting and the story is well-told.
In this heartwarming story, you will laugh, cry, and be encouraged to reflect on your life and the greater world around you as you become wrapped up in the lives of Finch, his dog, and his loyal robotic companions.
Apple has just announced that they will be releasing a new series of shows called “Finch” on their AppleTV+ platform worldwide on Friday, November 5th. This new series is set to be a hit with viewers all over the world, and we can’t wait to see what the show has in store for us.
