The start of the film The
Fly seemed boring because of its lack of effects, but as the film
progressed, the effects did not matter as much anymore. Rather, the interesting
plot, the questions that needed to be answered, the comedy and the wit, the
romance, and the acting made one want to continue watching the film.
The film's commentary on scientists and conduct of science
was that there were always limits and risks. Much caution should be made when
dealing with science and this is where the question of morality comes along.
The film showed the boundaries science can go to, the ethics it should follow,
and its do's and don’ts. Furthermore, the film tackles the issue on murder,
whether it was right to kill a monster which was once a man or an animal which was
part animal. Was it also right to kill a man who has given you his permission?
With the experimentation on teleportation, the film showed that
Science and Technology has already been ambitious even in the 1950s. The film
also portrayed that there were some lack of proper procedure and ethics that
were supposed to be followed when doing an experiment.
All in all, what made the film interesting was its content
and of course, science!
