Human nature is indeed cruel

In order to deal with the soaring crime rate during the economic crisis in the future, the US government has come up with such a strategy: every year, a day of clearing is set, which is actually the day of release of nature. On that day, there is revenge for revenge. If there is no revenge, the desire to kill can be released. It is legal to kill within 12 hours. .

Leaving aside whether the decree is sci-fi, absurd, or perverted, let’s imagine that if a free discussion is launched in today’s human society, it is estimated that there are not a few in favor. Those who have hatred, those who want to commit crimes, those who feel that their family is strong, those who feel that they have nothing to do with them, those who are masters of firearms, those who feel that social garbage needs to be cleaned up... In short, starting from their own interests, from social garbage cannibalism and self-cleaning Starting from the purpose, this evil plan has an existential foundation, and it is certain to be realized.

The character setting, emotional changes, and behavioral logic of the successful family of four in the film are still very reasonable and rigorous, which lays a solid foundation for the film.

First of all, the happy family stayed in the sturdy big house safely, with a relaxed mind, and they also supported the clearing plan wholeheartedly, because this was just a carnival night that had nothing to do with them. Most of the middle-class families in a society have this mentality, and it can also be called a refined egoist.

The son is put in the black veteran who is being hunted down. This kind of carefree son is a little kind, although the fact is that he has cheated his father, it is normal. The behavior logic of the rebellious daughter and the bear boyfriend is also normal, and this age is so two.

Starting from the interests of the family, the father started by arresting black people and sending them out to avoid harm to his family. Later, because of the reaction of the wife, son and daughter, it was reasonable to decide not to send the black people and choose to resist. He wants to send the black people out, and it is estimated that he will not be able to raise his head in front of his family in his life, and finally sacrificed heroically.

The logic of my mother's behavior is basically reasonable. There are many people like this around me. I'm afraid of trouble, but I don't want to cause trouble, and I can think of anything. When the husband tied up the black man, he made up the knife and began to feel guilty. Her husband said not to send black people out, and she was worried that bad people would enter the house. In the end, the family became the prey of the neighbors to be slaughtered, and was rescued by the black people, and the Virgin began again, and the neighbors were released.

This mother's last behavior was as uncomfortable as swallowing a fly. From the murder of her husband, from the mentality of protecting her calf, from being prepared to be slaughtered by gangsters, and from promoting good and eradicating evil, she should finally kill a few neighbors. Because after this incident, apart from a huge change in mentality, this neighbor can't do it again. These neighbors will continue to kill people today next year.

In addition to the husband, the family's clumsy behavior in the face of the gangsters is also very reasonable. If a secret agent's family kills the Quartet, it will become an entertainment film of Home Alone.

I feel that the director finally made his wife a blunt incarnation of the Virgin Mary, which is also to promote the positive energy of society, otherwise there is really no hope for human beings.

The Human Removal Project is an apt name. Through this film, I feel that human beings do have a strong selfish and cruel nature!
