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.
