I saw the preview of this film last year, and because of the mysterious content and Yimei's reputation, I had the idea to watch the feature film. After watching it in North American cinemas a week after its release, I couldn't fault Yimei's acting skills. It was really enjoyable. ! And in addition to the idea of watching the two previous works, I have the following ideas about the film itself:
I think this is the movie that the market desperately needs right now. It reversely interprets the comics and the super-English culture behind them, and involves the representative works of the last century, such as "Swamp Thing", which showed the dark society; it emphasizes the balance between the human and the supernatural. Compared with other superhero movies on the market, this film believes that modern people have always been in an absolute advantage in the game with superpowers, and for the latter, there has never been a glamorous life to stand out. , there is never any personal heroism, there is only cold and darkness that is suppressed and imprisoned.
Therefore, I personally think that the worldview created by the movie can be interpreted as the society after Iron Man's victory in the Marvel Civil War, perhaps more direct and incisive than this: people believe that no superpowers live by their side, and the government is also secretly Suppressing such groups of people is the predicament of the protagonists.
I don't think the title Glass refers specifically to Mr. Glass himself, especially since Mr. Glass is not strictly the protagonist of the film. After understanding the content of the previous work, I found that the entire series borrowed glass as an image, and the most different point of this film is that the glass called unbreakable was broken at the end, which symbolized the superpower that the government has been trying to cover up. The secret of the people was revealed. This is an end and a beginning. There are also many fragments of broken glass in the film. It can also be understood that the superpowers break through the bottleneck of self and others' cognition and realize the Individual consciousness and physical liberation.
The reversal of the psychiatrist at the end of the film is a major highlight. She is a microcosm of the organization of suppressing superpowers. The scene of the group trial in the pink house in the middle part of the film is also a highlight. Every question asked by the doctor seems to be brainwashing constantly, reminding me of the various government actions against the male protagonist in "A Clockwork Orange". Brainwashing, the suppression of one's own innate conditions, is also helpless.
Although the film's conception and actors are quite exciting, the setting of the plot and the overall rhythm can be described as fatal. The film's constant ambush at the beginning can be described as tedious and tedious at the end. If you want to segment this film, you can refer to it. Before and after Mr. Glass's speech, because of a new personality every second of a beauty, a decent action scene, and a more rigorous logic, the film is worth watching for me, and I can't help but complain here. , the rating may be the main reason for boredom, the director did not say that classic line, there is not much surprise or excitement in the whole film, and there are a lot of horror elements that should be missing, which makes people think of the type of the previous work. . It's really helpless to do this because the box office affects the ratings, and because the ratings affect the box office. This film can also be described as the director digging a big hole by himself, and even the audience does not allow it to fill it, giving people a kind of dignified answer, and maybe even because of the cost, the climax of the first scene hastily , which is regrettable.
We can see that the most valuable thing in the long ending is the moment when everyone understands the truth, whether it is a doctor (there is always a plan) or a citizen, and even the video posted on the Internet has a clear distinction with the video of the child at the beginning. control. Mr. Glass has a sentence in the film. The translation is probably that everyone can be a superhero, which can also be the finishing touch of the film; or maybe the real confrontation between superheroes and villains only exists in the farce on those video sites. It's just that, everyone can become a superhero by tapping their potential, or they can become a superhero by publicizing, and the latter is the epitome of the impetuousness of human society, which this film does not tell us directly. What the film doesn't tell us yet is whether or not the Batman and Robin old TV series and various comics require royalties.
The fate of the protagonists in this film always makes people feel that they have not considered something. I think if they must die, they should make death itself meaningful. It can be like "Pan's Labyrinth" and let them live in another A relatively more perfect world; it can also inspire like-minded people like "V for Vendetta", because although their video was released at the end, the doctor also said that there are many people like the protagonist outside, but they didn't watch it. To the example, there is no echo. Is this the performance of the ambush? I don't think it's wise, first of all the audience is not sure that the series will stop at the end of the trilogy, and then such an autistic plot kills the characters without any echo. Yes, I have seen the scene where the servants of the first three characters in the station are used to draw emotional lines surrounded by a circle, and I have also seen the push-pull scene at the end and the video in the news, and to be honest, the push-pull scene is placed at the end and then played. The cast list is my favorite, but I also hope to see some introductions, some new hopes, and I want to see more specific ones.
In "Silence of the Lambs", the professor finally walks into the market and gradually disappears into the crowd. The classic scene of film history is the ending that I agree with.
