reflect human nature

Personally, I think it's a bit reluctant to link this movie to politics. I prefer to look at it from the perspective of human nature. josh stands for arrogance. It can be seen from the beginning that he wants to go out despite Mickey's objection. That's the case, I know it's completely revealed later; gays are josh's heels, seeking a seat by chasing the heat and helping the tyrants. In real life, there are many such people; women are cowardly, just like gays, in her way To cater to josh and gays, what she and gays have in common is that they completely lose their principles and bottom lines in front of the powerful, but the two behave in different ways because of their gender, so from the beginning they have some kind of The degree of resonance, hit it off, and then "encouraged" the heroine to please josh to show this feature, but such people have tragic endings, and there are many people who can take the right seat in life. Sam obviously represents timidity. In extreme environments, he will immediately collapse and become emotionally unstable. He will either tremble in the corner or lose his senses. He will always rely on the strong man in his eyes, and yell at Mickey from the beginning to the back. Fly camp dog Gou, this is how to please josh and gays. In the last shot, he did not hit josh and gays, but josh's younger brother, because he was jealous of him in his heart, he thought josh's younger brother would take his girlfriend and treat him The greatest threat, at critical moments, revealing selfishness. Black people are selfish, selfish, and have a lot of heart. I agree with the statement of "too hidden bear". From the beginning, I questioned Mickey's arrangement, shouted from the walkie-talkie, and later followed Mickey to discover the dark room. This kind of person does not trust anyone, and acts Don't listen to anyone. People like this in the team always like to keep secrets from other people to maintain a sense of security and control. For Mickey, from his description of nuclear radiation and the food and water stored in the darkroom, we can know that he should have rich experience in dealing with this extreme environment, so he is the only person in it who can always remain rational. From the angle you can see the madness of others. The remaining josh's younger brother and the heroine are the only two people who come in with a clear mind. This should be the reason why josh's younger brother will be shot at the beginning, so the power of reason will be weaker, so they have the same heart. But unable to save the situation. From the beginning to the end, the heroine was always calm and rational. She saw all the changes and madness of the people around her, and was shocked in her heart. She was always looking for opportunities to change everything and save everyone. But when Mickey and Sam are fighting the fire, she suddenly realizes that this is a perfect time for her to escape, she chooses to abandon his boyfriend Sam and Mickey without hesitation, wearing the only radiation protection suit and a large bag of food Running away, this shows that from the very beginning, her initial calm and rationality were just a helpless compromise to the unchangeable surrounding environment, because at that time any man around could knock her down, and she was at a disadvantage from the beginning to the end, so she could not. No low-key, until the last chance comes, the true nature is revealed, which should also be the highlight of the movie; our reason and calm are only based on our mediocrity, and when the balance of power, wealth and fate is in our favor, we It will be as crazy as the client, which should be what the movie wants to express the most, and it is also the most helpless of human nature.
I personally think that it is a bit narrow to understand the film from the perspective of politics and revolution, but a good film should be like this, you can see the shadow of your heart in it.

    What are you going to say? It is said that human beings are inherently selfish in extreme situations? Talk about the variation of people in claustrophobic space? ... The feeling of depression brought by the film seems to be not only due to the heaviness and horror of the theme, but also the improper handling of the rhythm itself.

    Nima's apocalyptic theme. What a great subject, dick script story. . In fact, it could be more flavorful. It can actually be even more disgusting to waste such a good script.
