It's a rather bloody and violent work that tells the story of Mickey and Mellorie's desperate, murderous tale with an almost admirable attitude. Although they all involve major elements such as male and female robbers, road escapes, and the media's curiosity about criminal events, unlike 1966's "Bonnie and Clyde", Mickey and Miley in 1994's "Born to Kill" Always wild and arrogant, they could not find Bonnie Clyde's weakness and impotence in them, nor did they suffer the same tragic death as Bonnie Clyde's briquettes. They finally escaped the punishment of the law and lived in the world. Although it was two centuries of extremely rapid economic expansion in the history of the United States, the 1990s, when the computer industry was the mainstay, was far more tolerant and blessed to those who released the desire to publicize life than the 1960s of the manufacturing industry.
The unbridled expression of violence in the film is what I love about it: it shows human nature—the shadows in the sun—violence, greed, anger—how terrible it can be if left unchecked strength. It takes a lot of courage and a very tolerant social environment. Because this kind of power is the potential that all of us have. As long as the conditions are sufficient, it can burst out like the characters in the movie. This is also one of the best inspirations a work can give us.
Because in real life, we often fail to recognize this, and we often escape our essence. We refuse to admit ourselves, and we often forget to accept ourselves, others, sunshine and shadow equally.
Because of this blind rejection, we do not know how to appreciate our own essence. Because of this loss, we began to rely on Louis Vuitton or Chanel to help self-appreciation; or to rescue ourselves from nothingness through the ancient way of tattooing, outlining the totem of life.
On this level, there is no essential difference between a natural killer and an acquired tattoo madman.
As human beings, we always have this desire to know ourselves and experience life. Drugs, violence, sex, tattoos, luxuries, eating, extreme sports... these are the ways in which people feel the power of life. And this movie is one of them. The naked, bloody and cruel pictures it presents are like a bible, which may be the reason why so many people admire it so that it has become a classic.
