Some people said that after watching this film, he was very disappointed, why did the entertainment film pretend to be deep, why there was no horror death scene that he liked, and a few people died without novelty, not bloody and disgusting enough. I want to say, these audience friends, you can try a cult movie, a meat sauce horror movie, or a banned movie to watch, and go to the slaughterhouse if you are not satisfied. will definitely be satisfied.
As I understand it, the death scene in this film is not the main selling point, but to create the atmosphere. The stimulation of the scene is not the ultimate goal of the director, his ultimate goal is to create a closed space with nowhere to escape, no escape, let people experience a suffocating, nightmarish feeling. Why are there still those death scenes? 1. Death is the ultimate fear of human beings standing behind the curtain of various horrors in the society. That is to say, in this occasion, which embodies the end of everything and the annihilation of all hope, non-death is insufficient to achieve this suffocating horror. 2. It is indeed helpless, for entertainment. Art films have always survived in the cracks of commercial films, so almost any director, as long as possible, will definitely explore the commercial potential of a film. It's not shameful, it's simple, to live or to perish? Is it to pursue a high-level work of pure concept, even if it is stillborn, or to make one's own idea into a work with entertainment elements? I would say that choosing the latter is not shameful, but sensible. It's shameful for those spectators who stand and talk without backache, watch pirated movies at home, and still have words in their mouths, shame on your director, make art films that are not pure, and make commercial films that pretend to be pure and so on.
In fact, whether it is a movie or a novel, on the one hand, it serves the author's own heart, and on the other hand, it serves the readers and audiences. Writers of ego serve themselves. For example, as a writing enthusiast, my feeling is that when writing novels, from my own perspective, I absolutely hope to be 100% loyal to my ideas, and I don’t want to “sacrifice” the ideas of the works for the readers’ preferences. And the authors who are willing to increase the entertainment and viewability of their works are definitely some authors who consider the feelings of readers and audiences, and aggrieve themselves and spend more energy. In addition, even if the starting point of the film company is to make money, it is to make a commercial film. I think that if possible, try to add some profound things to a commercial film, something that can make people think, this is the director's profession. Morality is his self-motivation. If he sees such a thing, he will only scold the director for "pretending to be 13", it is because he has no brains himself, does not like to think, and is instinctively disgusted when he sees ideas. He himself doesn't know what thought is, and naturally feels that profound things or other people's thoughts are all faked. It's like a vulgar person who sees ballet or classical music and thinks that it's tinkered with it and looks like it.
Then again, if the thinking is all fake, and the film companies can only make the most vulgar and mentally retarded entertainment films to make a return, then each of us must ask ourselves, what kind of tastes do we, the public, have? Only created such a low-level market?
Going back to the content of the movie, I haven't done an in-depth study of the mathematical model in it, but I'm extremely impressed with the cube itself. It must be clear to everyone that this cube is the epitome of our society. Some people made it, who? It's an engineer around us, or you, or him, no, it's more of each of us. Then it's in the "system" and forgotten. Maybe you think this setting is very absurd and unnatural, even if it is not strange to create, forget it is not strange, why put so many killing devices in it? Too fake! At first glance, it is a set for the box office. This also makes sense. But is that exactly the case? ! I think the depiction of society here is no longer an innuendo, it is really realistic! Think about it carefully, are there not many such cubes in our society? Throughout the country, how many "beautiful big projects" are there every year, and how many of them are tofu dregs projects? ! Bridges, dangerous buildings, dams... How many people have made money, and their face has been added to the glory. After getting a vote, these bureaucrats and foremen slap their ass and leave, but then these cubes start killing people and taking lives! Is that 5, 50, 500? !
This cube is so absurd, it operates automatically, arranges and combines, and finally kills people? It shows the director's hypocrisy again, really? This phenomenon can be seen everywhere in our society! Next to us is a tertiary hospital of a certain army. In order to "enable patients to obtain a first-class medical environment", they vowed to create a so-called "ecological hospital". The water was flowing, and even two deer were raised in front of the ward building. Now they are starting to build a new building. It is reasonable to build a new building. ... Don't say that the surrounding area is surrounded by residential buildings, and even the ward building is next to the construction site. The seriously ill elderly and the ward with heart disease are not far away from the construction site. Is this saving lives or killing patients?
Interestingly, the bright stainless steel sign of the "Ecological Hospital" is just outside the gate of the construction site, echoing the dusty mountains and making them interesting.
Isn't all this more absurd than cube? Due to the lack of democratic supervision and humanistic care, the system has lost its rationality, and all kinds of unconscious procedures continue to lead to vicious consequences, turning the living environment of the people into hell. This is the status quo of our society. cube, which perfectly reproduces this dark humor.
Isn't such a ridiculous society created by each of us? I know that many people with ideas here are anti-TZ, but this system, all kinds of unreasonable systems, and its continued existence, is not also given life by each of us? I saw someone on the Internet indignantly write about how their civil rights have been violated, and they want to unite with other people who have experienced the same to complain. Saying that we have no rights and no money, bear with it. Some people say that safety comes first, and it will be too late to be beaten by others. Cynical, scolded, circled around and came to a conclusion: there is no help. Those who try hard are fools, it's useless, just sleep honestly. Yes, these people are very smart! Know how to please both sides, and more proficient in the way of self-protection. Aren't they the ones who gave privileges to the privileged? Regardless of the 21st century, slaves are still everywhere. These are the real slaves. Not only slaves, but also accomplices, accomplices in the fight against democracy and massacres, and weapons that kill without blood. They, and their folly, are those sulphuric acids, those blades in the cube.
A society eats people like this. Do you remember how you all got here? No, you don't remember. Not just having dinner, was sleeping, and then suddenly here, suddenly dying. We live in this society, which is such a mess. Maybe the days are still safe, and one day you suddenly hit the bad luck and die.
In the end, hope finally appeared. But why doesn't Worth go out? Outside, he said, is ugly humanity. Insensitivity, loss of mind, intrigue, annihilation of dissent. Weave a suffocating web with everyone's hands. Perhaps the other ending awaiting outside is one more terrifying than death.
That is, you have been safe and sound all your life, but you have long lost your vitality, your own voice, your own brain. You've already given this net, this gigantic machine sucked dry, alive like a zombie, and you don't know it yet.
