It's easier to fight a machine than a human

From the story, it is very similar to the "Chainsaw" series. Of course, this film appeared earlier. Just from the content analysis, it is not as bloody as the "Electricity" series, and the mechanism is not clever enough. The biggest difference is that this work mainly It is to fight against machines, and of course it also includes the unpredictability of the people who are fleeing, but their inner changes have nothing to do with the agency, which means that no matter how they change, they will still encounter them. The reason why the "Electricity" series has become a classic, It is that every psychological change among the victims will directly affect the possibility of escape. All of them are fighting with the jigsaw, and they are also fighting with themselves, and there is definitely one and only one possibility. Escape, which enhances the appeal of the story. . .
As for the political implications, we who live in a place where even basic human rights are not guaranteed have no time to think about bureaucratic issues like Europeans or Americans. That is already a luxury for us. So far, I can only feel a little bit about the themes or pure documentaries about foreign topics at least 10 or 20 years ago. As for the others, I can only envy and understand them for the time being. . .
Of course, this movie is still pretty good, the story is complete, and everyone played it very seriously. There are just a few details: after escaping for more than ten hours, except for fools, no one has any thoughts of excreting. . . There are also two ladies who provided full underwear, which is not bad. . . Why did the police suddenly want to touch the chest in the end? It's not the time. . .

  • Quentin: Listen, we can't go climbing around in here.

    Holloway: Why not?

    Quentin: There's traps.

    Holloway: What do you mean traps?

    Quentin: Booby traps. I looked in the room down there, and something almost cut my head off.

  • Quentin: [talking to Holloway] You listen to me, woman. Every day I mop up after your bleeding heart. The only reason you even exist is because I keep you!. I know your type. No kids, no man to fuck you. So, you go around outraged, sticking your nose up other people's assholes. Sniffing their business.
