After the last scene of the movie, the girl sitting behind me asked her mother, "Why did they go with the wolf in the end?"
The 4 factions in the story are opposed to each other, and if you look deeply into the plot, you will find that the distribution of good and evil in this fairy tale has some obvious divine advocacy. As if the human camp has many shortcomings, the characters are rough, and the wolf with divinity, Walker, not only selfless healing, unconditional acceptance of Robin's broken promises again and again, and even forgiveness of the hunter who shot his mother. If this kind of divine tolerance is regarded as "this is how nature recognizes and slaughters people," then the human beings in the film are not grateful and criticized. The emotional changes of the characters in the film, which change their faces in seconds, are also very similar to the group characteristics of human beings who are extremely forgetful.
The final ending looks good on the surface. People are wolves and go away peacefully. But if you think about it carefully, the towns that have changed hands will usher in new rulers, the forest will be burned, and the wolf runners will be forced to embark on the road to find new territories.
The situation has not changed for the better. And that's the truth. "Why did they go with the wolf in the end?" Because the status quo cannot be changed, and we have to move forward.
