Originally, I expected the fifth film to go to the cinema, but since the release time was later than overseas, various commentary posts broke out on Weibo early, and the 100% disappointment finally gave up my plan to go to the cinema to kill. I dragged this on and on, and I didn't finally finish it until today.
The subtitles for nearly 4 minutes at the beginning are long and tasteless. Maybe it will be a good preparation for watching the movie in the movie theater, but at home, I can't understand the purpose of such a long foreshadowing.
It may be because of the bad comments on Weibo that my expectations for this film have dropped to an unprecedented low. I thought it would be the same as the fourth film, pursuing technical excellence and ignoring the idea of the plot. This is the case. Compared with the five series of "Death Is Coming", the first and third films of the Chinese director are classics. This fifth film can be regarded as the one in this series that can keep its reputation.
The one-and-a-half-hour film follows the context of the previous films. First, some people foresee death and save some people from death. They thought that if they survived the catastrophe, they would have good luck, but after all, the god of death did not give these people a chance to be reborn. Anticipate the sequence of deaths in the scene, one by one. In the process, it is inevitable that there will be situations where the rhythm of the god of death will be broken again, but it is just delaying time. No matter how scared, the god of death will still find them.
If you bring yourself into the characters of the film, you can put yourself in the place and feel the sense of terror, as if the life in front of you is the same as usual, and the crisis has changed overnight. It may be just a nail or an action that you don't care about. When I came to die, I was very nervous, my pupils were dilated to beware of everything and everyone around me. At this time, I found that no matter how desperate I was, the idea of living at this moment was above everything else.
The series of "Death is Coming", while setting up a horror atmosphere, is also promoting love. Sam said to Molly "If it happens tomorrow, or 50 years from now, whatever. As long as we're together...I'll be okay." ... nothing else matters. I still remember that the earthquake in Japan hit China before, and I lived in a relatively dangerous coastal city. At that time, I really felt panic, but then I thought about it, no matter when I am with my family and the people I love and can trust, Whether it's death or anything else, you can face it with no regrets.
To say what is the difference between this one and the others, it is probably the role of Peter. He broke through the previous ones and just simply wanted to skip death, but never thought of letting someone else die for him, and this started a scene, In the end is to kill or kill the game. As Peter said, none of us deserve to die, but why did we get picked. This is just the rules of the game. In this cycle, whether you skip or let someone else replace you, you will eventually meet the arrival of death. As the black man said, "Death doesn't like to be cheated". Death doesn't like to be cheated.
At the end of the film, I reviewed the death scenes in this series of films, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, which lasted for 11 years. No matter what expectations turned into disappointment during the period, and the feelings that were not optimistic but attracted, it all over. The sentence "You all just be careful now." said by the black man at the end is a bit of a warning contempt and ridicule, but it is more like another way of saying goodbye.
So Death, Bye.
