      Interpretation of the Plot, Metaphors, and Details of "Us"

      Those who pay attention to details will find a recurring detail symbol in the movie, "11.11". I don't know if you have come up with something. Give you a few seconds. That's right, the Double Eleven of the Celestial Dynasty, was a crazy day. On this day, I don't know how many people will appear, doing crazy things to shock the world.

      There is only a line between "good" and "evil"

      We all understand a common sense of physics, as long as there is sunshine, there will be shadows. We have never thought carefully about the meaning of the existence of shadows, taking it for granted, it is true, everyone and every thing has its own shadow. There is no soul in the shadow, no thought, no speech, he is not even a living body, he just follows us mechanically to live. But the director of this film broke the cage of imagination, just imagine that if our shadow is another...

      It's not the monster that scares, it's our own shadow, the horror movie of the year!

      Good horror movies don't shoot monsters anymore, they shoot the ever-changing real world.

      Of all the movies, which genre needs the most freshness and excitement? I choose horror movies. The first time you watch a very scary episode, the second and third time you watch it may make you drowsy. In this era, information is redundant, and the audience has long been "nervous" to horror.

      So, how do you keep horror movies fresh? The way smart directors have found is to...

      true story

      This film review is just to narrate the plot with the heroine

      Many years ago, a little girl (let's call her A, the same below) followed her parents to the beach to play. A got lost, entered a room full of mirrors, and met a girl B who looked very similar to her.

      The camera is pulled to the present, and according to C's memory, we know that C is the little girl A of that year. She remembers that she ran out in a panic, found her parents and returned home. She was so scared that...

      under the mask

      I guessed the ending halfway through, but I was expecting a more exciting twist in the story, but it didn't.

      The two heroines represent two different perspectives

      The perspective of the real heroine explains that if black people want to achieve independence and strive for equality, they have to rely on themselves. At the same time, you can see in her that when most people have equal power, they only think about maintaining what they have. When the lower class tries to overthrow...

      Jordan Peele's new movie Escape from Breakthrough, I still prefer Breakthrough. After all, the clones resisted and the marginalized people could not speak. After all, the predecessors had taken too many photos. And the rabbits will be locked underground and eaten raw if anyone provokes them. ....

      A reflection on the state of American society in the post-slavery era, the bizarre contrast between the ground and the underground, and the puppet's backlash against the matchmaker, together constitute a closed loop of class allegory. The audiovisual is extremely amazing. If you can let go of the obsession of mixing comedy, Director Peele can be even more...

      Don't be afraid, this is a funny movie. The male protagonist can't say anything except wow wow wow and come on come on come on. The one with the highest kill count, excuse me? Is this a horror movie or an upgrade game? The neighbor's family was killed by clones, and the protagonist's family was counter-killed. There is always a spider image at the beginning. I thought this is not bad. The little girl in red the exorcist Stoke has this image, but the director discarded it later? ? ? Bunny is so...

      I've been looking forward to it for a long time, and I'm a little disappointed after watching it. It's similar to "Get Out" in temperament: metaphorical horror films, black protagonists, and occasionally a little humor, which is very different from the common American horror films, but "Get Out" can only accept that technology. Realized, the story is quite reasonable. The setting of this part is fundamentally surreal and self-contradictory, which shakes the essence. PS: Black brothers and...

      Jordan Peele, who was a blockbuster with "Get Out", didn't hit the same level again. This theme-first work obviously has only an empty concept. The film seems to reveal the complex life experience of black Americans in this post-racist era: some people enjoy the sun and the beach, and some people are forced to become shadow killers. The confrontation between black and white eventually turned into a fight without distinction between you and me, and the key to this melee was a pair of scissors...

    Evaluation action

    "We" is obviously the work of a very ambitious director, and the influence of Rod Serling can be seen. There are turning points, irony, false endings, and a lot of jokes. It is a very powerful blow. ("Hollywood Reporter" review)
    The film is scary enough. The less the audience knows and the less they think before entering the theater, the better the effect of watching the movie. The director uses some mysterious combination of...
