Hello everyone, This is Ultimate Recapped here! Today I'm going to explain an American
post-apocalyptic science fiction drama film called, " Finch" releases in 2021.
Don't waste your time, Be ready for some spoilers ahead.
10 years have passed since a solar flare destroyed the ozone layer, increasing temperatures to
150 degrees Fahrenheit, equals 70 degrees Celsius, turning the planet Earth into a largely-uninhabitable
wasteland scorched by ultraviolet radiation, and subject to extreme weather events.
There, a survivor man, who is a robotics engineer named, Finch, walking in the wasteland to
find food and supplies. He and his helper-robot called, Dewey, insides
into a ransacked store, and finding anything can help them to lives.
He finds some human corpses that died after the earth was destroyed by the extreme weather.
He then finds a few cans in the otherwise ransacked stores, and he takes them with himself,
before leaving the store. Finch sprays the store before he leaves, which
is easy for him to remind that he has already checked it.
Finch continues on a food collection mission around a decimated city with his dump truck,
but his search is cut short by a violent dust storm that forces him back to his shelter.
He arrived at his shelter, an underground laboratory once owned by the company he worked
for before the cataclysm. He then clears the dust from Dewey by using
the blower, before he goes to shower. Soon, we see Finch’s emaciated form and
are given hints that he is suffering from radiation poisoning.
However, Finch never loses his job even though he has a bit of hope to live.
He goes to work in his laboratory, while we and see that he has a dog named, Goodyear,
living with him as well. He really loves his dog because Goodyear is
the only friend for him in this world, after his robot, Dewey.
He feeds Goodyear with the canned food that he takes from the ransacked store, even though,
now he doesn't have enough food.
In his lab, his small mechanical helper, Dewey always scans books and uploads the information
into his computer. Upon there, the movie reveals Finch is working
on creating a more advanced humanoid robot companion to take care of his dog.
He did it because he knows about his being seriously ill and is dying, and makes sure
after he died, his dog must have someone who takes care instead of him.
On a new robot project, Finch doesn't have the mechanical eyes, so he decides to take
it from Dewey. He has taken the mechanical eyes into his
new robot and transfers the data feeds it volumes of encyclopedic knowledge, including
a manual for training and caring for dogs. During transfers data, Finch tests the new
robot which makes it nod if it knows about what he said.
It is processed as what he supposed and he is so very happy after seeing this.
Shortly afterward, the new robot can speak something but it is not totally.
Finch asks the new robot about its main role, and it reveals that it must protect the welfare
of the dog after Finch is absent.
During testing the new robot, the electricity is lost and Finch goes to manage it back.
He successes to turn the electricity back, but meanwhile, he spots a massive storm approaching
his lab causing he hurries to check the information about it.
He has connected the new robot's system with the local weather station to forecast related
to the storm. It turns that, the massive storm will arrive
at his lab within 24 hours, and it is predicted to last 40 days.
After knowing this, Finch believes that he can't stay there, because he must be going
to find the food every day and if the storm has lasted 40 days, so he will die by the
hungry. After that, Finch estimates the safe place
that he should be going to, finally, he decides to go towards San Francisco.
However, he soon gets a warning about a deadly storm approaching and is forced to finish
his work in a hurry. Due to this, only 72% of the data from the
books are uploaded onto the robot’s memory. By doesn't have enough data, the new robot
can't walk, so Finch decides to teach it by himself.
Soon, it is working after Finch suggests the new robot to imitate him.
After that, Finch prepares some food and supplies for the journey, and he takes Dewey's eyes
back, by using the camera security to replace them.
Later, Finch, Dewey, Goodyear, and the new robot set out in a heavily modified motorhome
towards San Francisco.
On the way, the new robot wonders how the humans have been wiped out, but Finch says
it is a long story. Finch then tells them about the beautiful
world that he used to see before extinction comes.
Soon, they have arrived at a small town to rest and find some supplies before continuing
their journey. Finch checks the new robot before allowing
it with him, and it wonders about where the location that they going to.
After that, they break into the cinema there as Finch teaches it about finding supplies.
Inside they find some unused, 15-years-out-of-date popcorn and pop it outside in the heat.
During that time, Finch spots a massive storm approaching, and he hurries to leave the town.
Even though he hurries by his best, but he believes that he can't escape in time, because
the storm is so faster. He then decides to stop his vehicle in the
desert and start to tie his vehicle to doesn't move when to storm comes.
He shows his action to the new robot and orders it to imitate him and help him.
The storm is nearing, so the air pressure starts to drop, and Finch's rate heart is
high, so the new robot suggests he stay in the vehicle and it continues to do it alone.
Before the storm arrives, the new robot can complete all its work and goes inside the
vehicle in time.
Several minutes after, they have safely from the storm but unfortunately, the vehicle was
damaged by the storm. Now, the vehicle's tire was shredded while
Finch forgets to take the car jack from his lab.
Meanwhile, the new robot is guaranteed to fix this, and it pulls up the vehicle for
Finch to replace a new tire. After that, Finch wants to set the name is
Jack for the new robot, but it seems didn't want it because Jack is a tool.
Later that night, the new robot seems to want to get the name so much, and Finch is also
trying to find a good name for it. During that time, the new robot has found
a good name and he gets to name himself called, Jeff.
The next morning, Finch was waked up by the noise of Goodyear and Jeff.
He notices Jeff is trying to create a friendship with Goodyear, but Goodyear seems doesn't
to trust the robot. Finch says Jeff should spend the time because
everything must be needed time and trust.
Later, Jeff asks Finch about what the trust is because he never knows about this.
Finch has explained to Jeff about the trust and gives some examples to him as well.
Immediately, Finch was caught as shown about his ill as well as the constant threat from
extreme heat, radiation.
Meanwhile, Finch decides to stop at an old diner and he gets out leaving Goodyear with
Jeff to rest. Jeff wants to take Goodyear to follow Finch,
but Goodyear doesn't want because it doesn't trust the robot.
After seeing this, Finch decides to bring his dog by himself and ordered Jeff waits
for him in the vehicle.
During waiting, Jeff decides to teach himself to drive the vehicle by the imitate from Finch.
Jeff has driven the vehicle out the shade, causing Finch doesn't toward the vehicle because
he didn't have the ultraviolet-resistant protective suit.
Finch is first tickled by what has happened but it’s an emotion that soon flips to rage.
He says Jeff has only one job and that’s to protect Goodyear and this is the only reason
that Jeff exists.
After Finch calms down, he tells Jeff about the reason that he blames him.
Finch says Jeff shouldn't take the vehicle away from him or Goodyear because it is easily
vulnerable to ultraviolet radiation. In addition, Finch has to relent to Jeff's
fault, letting Jeff learn to drive. Jeff seems doesn't good enough for the first
to drive, but later he can manage it all.
Later that night, the two of them sit out under the stars around a fire.
Jeff wonders why they can’t travel at night when the atmosphere is less dangerous.
Finch says how does he know the travel at night is not dangerous.
He tells Jeff that at night, in the shadows, the risks are not the sun but is the people,
who are the starving people. In addition, Finch is teaching Jeff to doesn't
trust anyone, because those will kill him if Jeff trusts the wrong person.
The next morning, Jeff finds Finch is unwell while his illness worsened.
Jeff then takes care of Finch and takes him to rest while Jeff himself manages the driver.
Later, Jeff stops the vehicle at a town, and he takes Dewey with him to find the supplies
and food. He creeps out and visits a building, hoping
to scavenge the food for Finch and Goodyear. Meanwhile, Finch wakes up and he believes
that area is not safe for them, while he hurries to get out the vehicle and bring Jeff and
Dewey back. At the same time, Dewey finds some doughnuts
in there, and he wants to get them, unfortunately, he inadvertently stumbles into a trap that
destroys him. Meanwhile, Jeff finds a large parker coat
and puts it on, filling the pockets with tins of supplies.
After that, Finch finds Dewey's body was totally destroyed and realizes it's a trap.
Finch then finds Jeff, while He and Jeff make it back to the vehicle, but as they drive
off another truck comes out of a nearby alley. On the way, Finch blames Jeff for his decision
that caused Dewey to die.
After the sunset, Jeff is driving into the mountains but Finch realizes they’re being
followed. It’s now dark, and they have to circle back
to an underpass to hide in, hoping the other truck will go away.
Finch wants Jeff to go through the tunnel but Jeff thinks it is not fit for their vehicle.
In the end, they go under but it’s too low and the solar panels on the vehicle’s roof
are destroyed while their pursuers can’t find them though and drive away.
After safe, Finch was so upset because the solar panels is totally destroyed, while his
vehicle must need it for supplies the power. Jeff has comforted him, but Finch shouts out
by the angry to him before returning into the vehicle.
Later, Jeff asks Finch that can they have arrived in San Francisco before the vehicle
loses the solar power or not. Finch himself seems it's not impossible, but
Jeff says, he trusts Finch can do it.
Meanwhile, Finch says he is a coward and he reveals his past to Jeff.
When the earth is just a bit destroyed, the people start messing and try to take the supply
for themselves. Finch wants to head west over the mountains
and avoid cities while he is also a person, who tries to take the supplies as the other.
While messing, he sees the mother and daughter were murdered in a store when a man with a
shotgun demands the food they’ve collected. He says, by the hungry, the human being to
cruelty but himself was being to the coward and hid for safe.
He has hidden until all those people leave, as he found Goodyear as a puppy in the dead
girl’s backpack.
After talking, Finch asks Jeff that, how Jeff believes in the coward's man?
The next morning, Jeff drives the vehicle by the rest of the solar power, but a large
butterfly hits his windscreen. Finch is amazed as there has been no wildlife
for years, and then he testes by taking his arms outside the vehicle.
It reveals that the UV radiation has dropped low enough for Finch to be able to step out
into the sunshine without a protective suit. In addition, he finds the green plants growing
and it reveals that the open air is no longer a deathtrap.
After never knows the feel without the radiation suit, Finch wearing his posh cream suit and
cream trilby, and rest stop, sit outside the vehicle.
Meanwhile, Jeff tells Finch about his dream that he always thinks Finch, Goodyear, and
himself can take the photo on the Golden Gate Bridge.
Jeff was interested that, behind the Golden Gate Bridge's postcard have more texts than
Finch's father writes for him.
Finch then reveals the story behind it, He explains to Jeff that his mother told him
his father had Viking blood and shows him a postcard of a Viking funeral.
His father is an army and he leaves Finch since he was born and he never sees his father.
But when Finch has his 15th birthday, his father sends this Golden Gate Bridge postcard
to him and hopes to see him in one day. In addition, now his suit that he wearing
was bought to impress his father, who never appeared.
After their talk, Jeff wants to leave immediately for Golden Gate Bridge but Finch bluntly tells
him he’s dying and asks Jeff to promise to do what is right for Goodyear.
During that time, Finch starts to teach Jeff how to play with Goodyear.
At first, it goes badly, but gradually both start to the closer.
Afterward, Finch has coughing blood, and Jeff helps him return to the vehicle.
Jeff asks if he can do something and Finch tells him he already has. They hug, then Finch
goes into the vehicle and uses his last breath to stay with his dog before he died.
Outside, Jeff hears Goodyear howling over his master means that now Finch is passed
away. Jeff then gives Finch as near as possible
a Viking funeral, the body wrapped, topped with Finch’s helmet, and burnt on a pyre.
The next day, Jeff and Goodyear use their life without Finch.
Jeff didn't know what he should do except feed Goodyear.
Later, Jeff and Goodyear continue on to the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco and they
always stop off the route to play. There is plenty of plant life in San Francisco,
and Jeff leaves a wooden memorial sign that Finch Weinberg, loved by Goodyear and Jeff.
Stuck to the bridge are masses of notes, photos, and postcards from people moving on, leaving
messages for their loved ones with where to find them.
Jeff fixes Finch’s postcard from his dad to the bridge and has also added line drawings
to it of him, Finch, and Goodyear. In the end, Jeff and Goodyear walk off into
the distance while the two continue their adventure.
