wave

Fascist-style dictatorships spontaneously emerged under the leadership of their leaders. The extreme performance of collectivism made an irresistible wave of dictatorship intensified. No matter when and where, when these waves come in, how to resist the waves that suppress the surge? Whether it is active confrontation, passive resistance, or blind obedience, different modes of opening will present a different world.
It only takes five days to establish a dictatorship group, but once it is established, it is not that easy to end it, and the sense of belonging to the group is difficult to erase. The photography and soundtrack are great, and a section of a group of Inspur students spraying graffiti on the street is very enjoyable. Max Remat's performance and appearance are impressive. It can reflect realistic themes.
A film about the emergence of a dictatorship. The reason why everyone rated it high may be because it cuts through some historical phenomena in the East and the West, but in all honesty, I don’t think it is a masterpiece. The biggest problem lies in the lack of narrative depth: this incident is simple to say, but in order to spread the story, the director introduced many conflicts-but they made the film's ideas become mixed but not deep; the film neatly demonstrated totalitarian development The necessary conditions, but their root causes have not been explored, and the final ending also lacks the necessary precipitation, although I am satisfied with the handling of the ending, and there is no lack of foreshadowing. Other than that, this movie is a bit dull.
