I originally thought that the beginning would not be very attractive. After all, these kinds of films can only throw out the answers they should have in the middle and later stages, and the state of the male protagonist does not feel dramatic. It seems that I still underestimate Korean screenwriters... What
many people want to know after watching this movie is "What happened?"
And I asked a question, "What do you want to say?" It
can be said that in the European and American cultural environment , Religion is a topic that can be complained about and has educational significance. They are good at reflecting on the value and meaning of "religion", because for them, it is already integrated into life. They can choose to doubt, disbelieve, and raise objections in this inherent environment. Anyway, it is deeply integrated into the existing culture. .
But not in Asia. Although we fundamentally believe in "religion", if nothing bad happens, belief counts as a P... We are very realistic. The characters in "The Crying" are basically set like this, so it is easy for me to feel a sense of substitution. In the end, should I believe in these gods and ghosts. With the development of the plot, I began to wonder if I was deceived by the director... Or, should I believe the information the director gave me, but before I finished thinking about it, I had already made a judgment, because the plot was advancing. Let you have no time to think.
what happened? It really doesn't matter, even if you figure out who the good guys are and who are the bad guys, or you can figure out the intentions of these characters, this movie can bring you far more than that.
For two and a half hours, the elements of horror continued, the content that made you stunned, and the screams of the little girl continued.
The fear behind you is so embedded in your brain that it hangs over your shoulders like a shadow, and you begin to doubt your own beliefs.
"What can we believe?"
should be what the director wanted to say.
