Second Draft S1m0ne Evaluation
Have
you ever told a half lie? I myself have told many half lies before. Half lies show what seems as the harmless ways that we
change the truth. You dont actually tell a lie, and nor do you tell the full truth. This is what happens in the Sci-Fi movie
Simone when a director fools the media into thinking he has the perfect actor.
The
movie Simone is about a film maker named Victor Taransky, with artistic honesty who replaces those high maintenance
pretty supermodel actresses with a perfectly gifted and beautiful actress in his latest movie that gets everyone crazy about
Simone. This actress needs nothing. She does her own stunts, her own make up, and wardrobe. But this perfect actress is computer
generated. And no body knows that. This computer generated actress is called Simulation One, or Simone. His movie makes people
crazy. He by accident proves a point by showing that fake is more believable than the real stuff in our current life of artificial,
plastic, crap stars, but he cant bring himself to show his secret. The myth quickly grows into a huge mess and he can no longer
control her and her brain washing tactics, despite the fact that he controls every single one of her pixels and all of her
motions.
There are many plot holes in this movie. One major inaccuracy is the fact that the media cant tell that Simone isnt
real. With all the news cast personnel and paparazzi, they should at least have a small indication that Simone isnt real.
There are points made that, even though they are filled with simplicity, are interesting. People often
judge movies by its special effects, sound, beautiful actors, and even dialogue, when they should be judging movies by its
idea. But this movie didnt seem to have a great idea. With great potential, it really sucked that Simone the movie is like Simone the actress,
stuck in a computer screen. Simone
just didnt have the stuff to be a great movie through my eyes.
Moreover, I thought this movie was not the best. Maybe a few years from now when technology is at its best, we may
be able to create digital actors for movies. Currently, our technology can come very close to making a computer generated
figure look like the real thing. But not close enough to fool the media into thinking that it is a real actor like Simone.
I suggest for people to watch this, but be warned, this wont be the best movie youve ever watched.
