This film is very interesting and very thought-provoking.
The plot of the film tells the story of an inventor who invented robots and created an era, but in the end, human civilization was controlled by robots and destroyed. Knowing that mistakes were irreparable, the inventor injected his humanity into 9 Muppets (robots) before he died.
Many people watch this film and like to interpret it from the relationship between robots and humans, or from the problems that scientific development may bring.
But going back to the original plot of the film, what I understand is that 9 robots represent 9 different personalities, and the 9 robots together are a complete person and a complete group.
Number 1 is the image of a veteran. Relying on "age" to claim to be the boss, conservative, cowardly, afraid of change, blindly waiting for the help of the outside world.
Number 1 is the one who is bound by threats and fears from the outside world, the one who rambles on the team and always thinks things negatively. The mantra is to protect yourself and not to cause trouble.
No. 1's top hat, cloak, and scepter represent his identity. Although he is pedantic, as an old leader, he has a strong sense of responsibility, guarding the young with his way of survival, and guarding the interests of the team within his own thinking boundaries.
No. 1 symbolizes the stable "old man" in the team. It is the cornerstone of the team's cohesion. He may be preoccupied at ordinary times, but he is willing to sacrifice his own interests at critical moments to achieve the interests of the team.
During the battle with the Eagle Monster, No. 9 proposed to No. 1 to give up the cloak to save his life. No. 1 struggled for a while, and then reluctantly gave up the cloak. It symbolizes that the 1 at this time has begun to accept the reality of the 9 as the leader. After the explosion of the Big Eyed Monster Headquarters, No. 1 took off his high hat, and officially relieved his heavy responsibility as the leader of the older generation.
Inventor Robot No. 2, Scout, is full of curiosity about things. He is the first person in the team to perceive changes in the outside world with strong professional skills. He is an active member of the old team, active and hardworking, and he bravely guards everyone in the team.
If it is said that in the old team, No. 1 is the boss with a false appearance, No. 2 is the spiritual leader who gathers the strength of the team, for example, No. 5 and No. 7 respect and love No. 2 very much.
Numbers 3 and 4 are twins, representing knowledgeable wise men and experienced settlers who understand the ins and outs of things.
Numbers 3 and 4 represent those on the team who like to go back to the source and find answers. They are the collectors of intelligence, they know the problem, but they may not be able to find a solution to the problem, or even if they know the solution, with their weak execution, they cannot solve it alone.
In real life, many people who like to use their brains are not very strong in execution, and it is easy to get lost in their own brainstorming.
No. 5 mechanic, healer. He is an excellent soldier with professional skills, obeys the rules, is timid, and is a kind-hearted team member.
He can help the team to fix loopholes, but with a weak personality, it is easy for him to retreat when he encounters setbacks, and he is easy to complain when encountering difficulties.
He was also the first on the team to follow the No. 9.
Because No. 9 said a reason he couldn't refuse - to save No. 2.
No. 5 and No. 2 have a good relationship, both are strong professional people, they have empathy and mutual understanding, so when No. 9 convinces him with the reason of saving No. 2, he accepts.
The mad painter No. 6 represents the original intention. It represents the person in the team who likes to do top-level strategies and stick to the original ideal. He can use his innate intuition to create the highest conceptual goal of the team and frame the direction of the team.
However, there is still a huge gap between conceptual goals and concrete implementation. But if there is no such person in the team, it is often easy to fall into confusion and confusion.
The direction of the number 6 is the basis for keeping the whole team on the same goal.
No. 7 female samurai and knight, brave and tenacious, responsible, capable, not afraid of authority, and independent, she has repeatedly turned the tide at critical moments and solved the team's crisis.
But she is also the hardest person to tame on the team, because she only obeys those who are stronger than her, especially leaders who are strong in thought and execution.
No. 7 was never afraid of harsh environments. She left Shelter No. 1 and chose to face monsters alone, taking the initiative to challenge difficulties until she met No. 9.
At first she was not convinced by the number 9, but when the number 9 showed strong leadership, she also returned to the whole team to work hard for the same goal.
No. 8 is a big man with a lot of courage, but he does not have too strong opinions on things, and he is a follower with strong execution.
Whether it's following veteran No. 1 or No. 9, as long as he receives a team order, he can move forward without questioning.
No. 9 represents the new leadership of the team, has the courage, wit, and innovation ability to move forward, and is good at inspiring and uniting the team. No. 2 says No. 9 has the best craftsmanship and materials, which means No. 9 is the leader with the best overall talent among the 9 robots.
No. 9's leadership character makes him a natural leader and leader in helping the team solve problems.
No. 2 is Bole of No. 9. No. 2 not only helped him to re-voice, but also led him to find the team of No. 1.
After No. 9 entered the team as a rookie, he was the first to bring the team's problems and dilemmas to the fore. However, the rest of the team believed that the problems and dilemmas were caused by him.
No. 9 is not very mature from the beginning. He has experienced the experience of constantly "upgrading and fighting monsters" and thinking in the face of hawk monsters, basilisks, big-eyed monsters, moth monsters, spider monsters, etc.
While activating the difficulty of the task, he also pushed the team one step closer to the goal.
Breakthroughs have always required constant attempts to achieve. No. 9 has also made the team pay for the continuous innovation. No. 2 has become the first robot whose soul has been absorbed. But every time it fails, No. 9 has the courage to take responsibility and draw lessons from experience.
No. 9 never gives up on anyone in the team. He can unite the team to solve problems, and at critical moments, he can single-handedly save No. 7 and No. 8 who were captured by the Basilisk.
When faced with difficulties and everyone wants to give up, the 9 has a firm goal and firmly believes that there will be a solution to the dilemma.
No. 9 has a beginning and an end in his work. After finding the path to solve the problem, he is never timid, but gathers strength and exerts wisdom to achieve his goal.
Everyone is changing along the way.
Number 9 starts out with saving Number 2 and goes all the way to find the ultimate answer to the problem. Along the way, No. 9 has also grown from an initial rash and reckless to mature and stable, and has grown into a true leader.
In the end, No. 9 found the answer to the problem, solved the problem completely, and ushered in a new stage for the team.
In the process of struggling with many difficulties and problems, we are also in the process of discovering ourselves and understanding ourselves. Our biggest "enemy" is often ourselves, overcome our own psychological obstacles, break through psychological boundaries, and find the best way to balance ourselves and the "enemy". In the best way, while destroying the "enemy", it also fulfills a better self and brings new life to oneself.
In the end, no matter which angle you interpret it from, if you watch the movie with thinking, you will definitely gain a lot.
