Oscar -nominee director and Volding Petersen died In 2022Leave the unforgettable films. He was mostly known for the films of the movement with a curved military movement, In the fire lineand Air Force is oneAnd classic Boat. But he was definitely his exceptions.

There was dust from the imagination of sudden children and glory The endless story (Rip Artax), then there was the least well -known science fiction drama of 1985 Enemy mine. Dennis Cuuee Cagar Catterot Catterott for Space Will Davidge and Luis Gussit Junior in the role of reptiles, Enemy mine The critics did not admire and did not earn any money, and I think this is a crime.

In the last half of the twenty -first century, the promise of colonialism helps the human galaxy on the union. But before the champagne exploded, believing that we realized the dreams of Star Trek Jin Rodnberryand Enemy mine It is expected to push us to space creates new competitions.

When we meet for the first time in Davidge Dennis Cuue Foreigners Those who cannot expand humanity. Davidge is cheerful enough because Drax explodes into pieces-he talks with chatting with his participation in Woster (Lance Kirwin)-but once one of his fellow human beings is removed, Davidge’s anger. It is not enough to paralyze the Dakar Violation ship. The ship is followed in the orbit of a nearby planet, where he and the realization of the one who fell. Woster dies shortly after the accident.

Although Dennis Quaid’s Davidge is stuck on an unfamiliar planet, has no food, water, and no way to contact the human rescue forces, the pilot’s priority is revenge. He follows Dark who saw him going out on the way and goes to great pain to try to kill him.

While his real name is Giba Chogan, we know the character of Louis Ghostit Junior while Jerry-the title Davidge is given his potential victim, who soon becomes his family. Everything that Davidge sees and learns about Jerry raises disgust from him, but when it becomes clear that there is no rescue that will come, the two must learn to work together to survive.

Dennis Cuid is the highest star Enemy mineBut the best reason to watch the movie is watching Luis Joset Junior completely losing himself on the side of Jerry reptiles. From the way Drac physically interacts with the rain, to the way it goes, to his beloved laughter, it is clear that Gusite spent a long time to create a limestone from A to Z. Although he is sometimes hostile as his human counterpart, he is constantly not only the most class character in Enemy mineBut by leaps and the most famous borders.

There are the nineties until the eighties of science fiction films like predator and finisher Where special effects still stand up. In many areas, Enemy mine It is definitely no One of those films. Early championship The battle, you can practically see chains.

There are two fields that do not extend FX: creature design and Dracs makeup. Solid -cutting monsters and underground holes for the film can be fully believed, and incredible limestone, except for the distance between the GosSett mask and its mouth became visible to the entire film clearly.

I don’t want to spoil the entire movie, but you think Enemy mine It goes in one direction, then it takes the difficult left to something else. This may have a great relationship with the cause of the Dennis Quaid-Starreer failure when it was released. The audience expected one thing and got something completely different; Sometimes, this is great, and sometimes, it is something that can only be appreciated after years.

As long as you can forgive some visual restrictions at the time, Enemy mine he Science fiction Classic that deserves another look.
