Later, I couldn't sleep at night, and the resources in the notebook were scarce, so I gritted my teeth and opened this backlog with my accomplices.
There isn't really much sensory stimulation in the whole movie. After watching it for a long time, I couldn't help but sigh, oh my, everyone's social role is so clear~ It's typical, routine, and sophisticated~
But with the encounters of chemists (if I remember correctly), including the failure of mathematical calculations, incidents Development becomes detached. Experiences, routines, lose their usual reproducibility, things seem to be spiraling out of control, and roles deviate from our stereotypes. I began to find the director's sly smile and contemptuous eyes behind the screen... At this time, the audience also became the object of being satirized. In a sense, it even integrated into the film and became one of several representative characters. .
Maybe from a psychological point of view, there will be more typical conclusions, but I can only talk about it from my own direct and intuitive feelings.
The conflict between characters in a specific (closed) environment, the friction between survival instinct and human morality, the conflict seems to be magnified and clearer. Thinking of the "controlled experiment", in fact, the audience's own experience is also involved in the process of the film.
Some psychological and behavioral details have also been exaggerated by the director, but it is not ruled out that in this case, it is reasonable that some psychological characteristics of people will be more prominent (is such a closed space can be used as a director to isolate and Tools to filter social, human complexity). I think these places can be regarded as the immaturity of the film (because it always feels discordant and exaggerated), and can also be regarded as the highlight of the film (which will bring shocking psychological impact to the audience).
The ending also reflects the return of human nature, cooperation, love, sacrifice, and the relationship between characters gradually moves closer to the environment we are familiar with. When the exit is opened, moviegoers will breathe a sigh of relief, finally escaping this grotesque existence and distorted space, and entering the familiar and "reasonable" society. A sense of security and a sense of crisis follow~
Although it feels a bit top-heavy..
In fact, when I watched it, I didn't care much about the purpose and origin of this machine. I was more interested in the people inside the cube, their behavior, and the relationship between them. As for whether there is any insinuation, I think this benevolent sees different opinions, CUBE has its particularity, maybe it can be used as a symbol. (Anything can actually be implicated in politics, which is about "people's hearts"~) I
didn't watch 0 and 2, because I was afraid that they would simply take the positioning of horror movies and lose the wonderful connotation that CUBE most attracted me. ..
very unforgettable, very novel, I haven't seen such an impactful movie in a long time. Although it's not perfect.
