"Another Dimension Killing Array" can be called a very classic suspense film, which not only has a tense plot, but also has a profound meaning. The cube represents a complex society, and the five protagonists represent the five natures of man. The police represent evil, doctors represent kindness, college students represent wisdom, architects represent cowardice, and idiots represent innocence.
The police are evil, powerful, powerful, but selfish, and will do anything to survive. Evil tends to live the fullest life. Therefore, only Evil has three children among several people, but Evil is still annoying after all, so in the play, his wife left him after identifying the truth.
Doctors represent kindness, are willing to take care of others, willing to be the sacrifice of others, have protected others at critical moments, and are willing to think for others. But kindness doesn't seem to be welcomed, just an old woman with no husband, no lover, and no children. In the end, when he stood up for everyone, he was killed by evil.
College students represent wisdom and are able to unravel the mysteries of the cube through their mathematical expertise. Wisdom chose to stand on the side of goodness when goodness was fighting against evil. After learning that goodness was killed by evil, despite being coerced and lured by evil, she was still unwilling to lead evil out of the cube, and united cowardice to deal with evil. However, wisdom is ultimately killed by evil.
Architects represent cowardice and seem to know some plausible truths, so they think in a bad direction on their own accord, leading to inaction. Although he was inspired by evil and kindness, he cheered up his spirits, and tried to join forces with wisdom to kill evil, but he was eventually killed by evil's tenacious vitality. It is worth mentioning that, in the end, cowardice tried his best to stop the evil's survival.
Idiot means innocence. Innocence will always be protected. At first, kindness took care of him. After kindness was killed by evil, wisdom and cowardice jointly took care of him, and also inspired cowardice to burst into courage and successfully saved his own life. Innocence and extraordinary luck can assist Wisdom in unlocking the secrets of the cube. But innocence is innocence. Although he was the only one who survived in the end, he was still confused and at a loss after going out.
There is also a supporting role, the Flying Thief, who represents self-righteousness. He has successfully escaped from seven heavily guarded prisons. He believes that he will be able to escape with his own experience. your shoes". Such self-righteousness is of course the first to die, and the most ugly, and can't even leave a complete face.
Throughout the whole film, at the beginning, evil, kindness, wisdom, cowardice, and innocence were able to share weal and woe in order to escape the cube. The evil's ability to survive is super strong, and he was full of energy at the beginning, like a leader, leading everyone forward. When the evil finds that innocence is a burden and may affect the overall situation and even endanger its own life, it asks to give up the idiot. At this time, the good nature has to protect the innocence and conflict with the evil. Wisdom and cowardice choose to stand on the side of the good. At that time, the situation was still unclear, and the evil chose to back down. At this time, the whole group is still in coordination, everyone divides the labor and cooperates, the wisdom is responsible for the calculation, the cowardly assists, and the innocence also exerts its own luck. Just as everyone approached the edge of the cube infinitely, they found that the exit they reached was at a high point of the cube, far from the ground, and the consequence of going out would be to fall to their death. In order to detect the height of the location, everyone cooperated again, and the wisdom climbed out of the window to detect the height. As a result, the evil took advantage of cowardice and wisdom to see the situation, and designed the kindness to use his own life to detect the height of everyone's location. Kindness ultimately dies for everyone. At this time, the role of cowardice and wisdom is reflected again. Cowardice finds that the cube is in a loop, and wisdom successfully finds that the place where everyone came in at first is the exit. So a group of people waited to continue on the way back. At this time, wisdom and cowardice also discovered the truth that evil killed the good, so they tried to get rid of the evil, and tried to kill the evil several times. Instead, evil succeeded in killing wisdom at the exit and wounding cowardice. In the end, before Chunzhen went out, he was pulled by the evil, and he saw that the evil was about to escape. The cowardice tried his best to hold the evil and perished with the evil.
The cube, like society, is so complex that it cannot be dealt with by individuals alone. Evil has power and will do anything by any means; wisdom is smart enough to understand everything; kindness has courage and is willing to devote himself to everyone. However, after turning around for a long time, I found that the real exit was the starting point, and it was most likely to survive without doing anything. Cowardice is originally waiting to die, but may survive, but cowardice cannot persevere, and can only go with the flow. Innocent, if he is only one person, will only hum and hum, but he will definitely not take action, and he will be able to survive. This society is so complicated, how can we make good use of our own nature, is it as Lao Tzu said, "The husband does not fight, so there is no way to fight with it"? In my opinion, innocence survives and expresses the director's good wishes. In fact, this society is cold enough, like a cube, and what survives is often evil. It's just that evil may not always have the opportunity to manifest in real life. Therefore, his identity is a policeman. On the surface, the policeman, of course, exists to maintain social justice. However, the wife who knows him best is the first to abandon him. go. Although Innocence survived, but in the final picture, after Innocence went out, under the extremely dazzling white sunlight, Innocence was swaying, so helpless, he also had to face the more complex cube of society.
In short, the director is essentially a pessimist, trying to express some optimism, but it is difficult to hide the world-weariness in his bones.
