一次意外，日韩内向的哥哥大卫（托比·马奎尔 Tobey Maguire饰）和火辣的妹妹珍妮弗（瑞茜·威瑟斯彭 Reese Witherspoon饰）来到了一片黑白的世界：日韩欢乐谷。这里正是大卫喜爱已久的电视剧场景：没有彩色，人们过着没有波澜和惊险的平静生活。居民的人生像极了一套既定程序，每一天都过得规规矩矩毫无意外。夫妻相敬如宾，孩子乖巧听话，没有投不进篮框的篮球，没有写着故事的图书，没有误点的晚餐。兄妹的到来渐渐改变着这个黑白的世界。特别是在珍妮弗热情奔放的性格下，人们开始惊讶的发现，他们竟然看到了彩色。彩色在欢乐谷里弥散开来，看得见的人遭到看不见的人攻击。保守派们不能接受彩色的出现，不能看到人们打开欲望和本能这个潘多拉盒子，然而，欢乐谷还是轰烈的推进着彩色浪潮。
回复 :"Dr. Cyclops" is known as one of the better "early sci-fi" films, made in '39 and released in 1940. (It is also in color.) But while the story has potential and there are some good moments, this is a very confused film.The plot is simple - crazy mad scientist on some remote island can shrink animals, and wants to try it on humans. He manages this on a scientific team that came to check things out. They get angry, and the crazy scientist eventually gets really angry because his new shrunken subjects won't cooperate.The thing is, the film doesn't seem to know if it wants to be a thriller, or a goofy movie. Dr. Cyclops (never called that but referenced to a Cyclops after one lens in his glasses breaks) looks cool in his "30's style sci-fi helmet" as he performs experiments and can be chilling at times. But there is so much "Disney-style goofy music" going on that it is hard to take anything seriously. The music belongs in a family comedy for the most part, and is played when the shrunken people do things like try to survive, and creep around the floor. Add that a few of them have pretty gruesome deaths and that just adds to the confusing atmosphere.The FX aren't so bad but nothing special. The giant sets built are pretty impressive though. There is a scene where little fires are tossed at a real crocodile's head which probably made animal activists angry.It also takes a long time for anything to really happen. This movie could have been done in a nice tight half-hour. Good for a viewing, but you probably won't watch again. The performance of the guy who plays Dr. Cyclops is definitely the main attraction.
