The Darkest Minds  is a film based on the novel of the same name by author Alexandra Bracken. The film is considered a combination of the film Decoding with enchantment with X-Men, but WebTech360 finds that the film has its own characteristics which are extremely interesting and attractive. Let's join WebTech360 Superhuman intelligence!

Plot:  Superhuman intelligencebring viewers to the United States at the time of a strange disease that causes 90% of children to die without reason, and the surviving children possess special superpowers. They are categorized into 5 categories corresponding to the five colors: Green (intelligence), Yellow (controlling current), Blue (controlling objects), Red (Fire) and Orange (controlling mind) and was locked up by the government in a concentration camp. In one incident, Ruby (16 years old) was rescued by an agent of the Childhood Union and on the way to escape she befriended Liam, Chubs and Zu - also the children who survived prison. . These 4 boys set out to find a safe land for the children built by a boy named Nhoc Chuon. The journey to get here is not easy because they are subjected to the pursuit of the pair, the bounty hunters,

Actually, the content of the film is quite attractive when introducing in a class the special abilities of each group of children with super powers as well as bringing the viewer from one episode to another in a logical, necessary and reasonable manner. . WebTech360 has not read the story, so it cannot compare, but the feeling of a person who simply goes to enjoy the movie can only conclude the movie with one word that is good.

The film gives viewers the opening stories of the sequels with a very good background. We have enough time to understand and love the main characters, grasp the factions involved in the story, and eagerly look forward to how the story will unfold in the following episodes. Despite the somewhat verbose segments, WebTech360 thinks it is essential to highlight relevant issues.

The beauty of the movie is that it borrows differences in children's ability to talk about racism, the abilities of young children that exist not only in the United States but also in many parts of the world. Besides, the film emphasizes the importance of children to this world and makes us love and care more about family and relatives beside us. The friendship in the movie is also clearly depicted, giving viewers a sense of excitement with the 4 main characters of the film.

Although it is a Hollywood movie, WebTech360 still feels many Asian features in the film, especially the segments about love, Super Intelligence has done very well, bringing a sense of authenticity as well as a feeling of abundance. for the audience. Indeed, I am not mistaken because the director is a girl from Korea so we can understand how well the film did in terms of emotions. The film also has a few plot -twist though not too surprising but still attractive and dramatic for the movie. The film's antagonism remains weak as in other movies but is probably reserved for newly shown sequels. For some reason, the critics gave the film 9.8 / 10. The feeling of WebTech360 is that this movie is extremely fond of this film, so it will score 8.5 / 10 for the plot of the movie.

Image:  Although the film's techniques are still not as realistic as blockbusters are invested a lot of money, Super Intelligence still makes viewers feel satisfied with the supernatural depictions of each character in the movie. Surely not only WebTech360 but many of you also want to see our characters show more abilities. The fire and explosion scenes in the movie are also quite spectacular and beautiful

Plus points for the film's visuals come from the artistic angle of the sun and the dissolution of the character's memory. Somehow the emotions of WebTech360 are raised higher when the characters in the movie dissolve than the emotions of watching similar scenes in Infinity War. Besides, the film also brings many beautiful scenes of America on the film and watching the characters walking with backpacks like that, everyone must have an urge to go somewhere right this week. OK. This part of the movie WebTech360 scores 8/10 .

The sound:  As mentioned above, since the director is of Korean descent, the film is extremely expensive in but the emotional and musical scene is one of the tools for the director to do that. WebTech360 found that the film chooses extremely expensive music tracks that match the character's feelings and the content of the scene. If you are weak, maybe you will shed tears because of these scenes. The music will be better later, the sound makes the movie much more attractive, so WebTech360 gives 8/10 for the sound.

Acting: The actors in the movie are brand new faces, bringing a new flavor to this work. The actor with the most acting land is Amandla Stenberg as Ruby. The face blends American beauty, mixed with African hotness and Asian elegance, making every expression with her gaze expressing the character of this character. Amandla's acting makes the viewer feel both cute and strong but also very feminine in this character. Compared to the character Thomas in Decoding the labyrinth, Ruby in this movie is much better and cuter.

Ruby's three friends all fulfilled their roles when Liam played by Harris Dickinson with an overly cinematic face with irresistible masculine beauty. The smart guy Chubs do Skylan Brooks is adorable and brings the most laughter to the movie. Asian girl Miya Cech, although there is no dialogue and has the fewest screened segments of the 4 main characters, still leaves an impression on viewers. The remaining roles are not too impressive, but overall still ensures the quality of the film's acting. WebTech360 marks this section  7.5 out of 10 .

International scale:

IMDB: 5.6 / 10  (64 ratings)

Metascore: 50 /10

Rotten Tomatoes: 17 /100 (for tomatoes rot)

In short , The Darkest Minds  is a good movie and has the potential to develop for the sequels. WebTech360 doesn't know why the world critics underestimate the film so low, but from the Asian perspective and haven't read this story before it hits theaters, WebTech360 is extremely satisfied and has great experiences. great when watching movies. You try to go to theaters to see if you feel like WebTech360.
