Fans are on the left, fans are on the right

The script of "I'm a Cyborg, But That's OK" still comes from Park Chan-wook and Jung Suk-kyung, and even the soundtrack Cho Young-woong and the way the opening subtitles appear, the hard-working and non-stop turning gears and the clock of "Old Boy" or "Kind Gold" Compared with the cake slices, there is continuity before and after. There is no special deviation to say, the biggest deviation is the actor, referring to Park Zanyu's usual cast list, except that the judge who sentenced Rain to disappear is a bit familiar, he is the bodyguard who died violently in "Old Boy" And the wretched priest in Kind Gold. Another familiar character, Lao Ai, who appeared in the trilogy is the one with a conspicuous mole on the right cheek in the mental hospital. His name is Wu Dashu. Many people can recall the scene of his tooth extraction in "Old Boy". .

As a commercial and transformational work that most people have dreamed of, "I'm" is a failure. It is escorted by six-pack Rain and sugar cube MM, but unfortunately it has no power to save the market, not to mention Park Zanyu has "JSA" 600 Pearl and jade with thousands of spectators are in front. What's the reason, Rain can't act? So will Jay Chou act? No, neither is the reason. The appearance of young Rain and Lin Xiujing is no less than Park Zanyu making a long MV with personality, so Rain's theme song is included in the film (but it is not to say that he is not good, compared to Jay Chou's words, Rain's performance is still good) .

In the face of Park Chan-wook's movie that said Rain is so cute and fascinating, I don't think it makes any sense. If this is a love story that fans have dreamed of, it can be made more popular, or a genre film is also a good choice, but gradually there is Park Chan-wook who does not appear in the three major episodes, it is a failure and will not be considered s Choice. This kind of failure is doomed in advance, not the test result obtained after the launch of "It Doesn't Matter With Robots".

A small cut pain complex is called a pervert, and it is really a side of the sky for the frog at the bottom of the well. Although it is not a work of great effort, the chapter on the mentally ill characters included in "I'm" is enough to analyze the first half of the day. It is not the image of avengers on the fringes of society (the revenge of Lin Xiujing in the film is a big exception), but for different reasons. A fictitious psychiatric hospital to be dropped into or sent to.

When Park Chan-wook's pain-cutting complex changed to wrist-cutting, ten-fingered machine gun, and slaughter as a means of resistance, it was not difficult to breathe, but a little bit of boring in addition to the novelty (slightly weird, I don't know if it's annoying except procrastination) Whether the antipathy stems from this). From the emotions of these connected films, it can be concluded that this is far from a romantic film that can contain beyond reality, nor can it be related to the April school shooting. This is a living state of being isolated and pressured, and it is also vented out by the character.

It is not enough to simply understand that they are hurt. It is not a specific and single image role setting. Those who fall down in the crowd are all incarnate as monitors and pressurers, and are surrounded by hospital staff. On the contrary, patients are not. safe and sound. If there were more scenes in "I'm" showing Lin Xiujing being forced to eat, maybe it would be more impactful (electric shock and nostril feeding are already in place, but unfortunately the impression faded too quickly), they would easily enhance the conflict effect on a character. , but the "slaughter" before and after the anti-war was seen to be cruel, and it was a bit of a misstep - even though it was a virtual killing under impassioned music.

If most of the fans are young people from their teens to before their thirties, most of them cannot foresee this most insignificant difference between the so-called fans and non-fans at close range, then they are not regarded as "love". The "I'm" of the film" is undoubtedly a lot more esoteric and obscure for them, even if the second half of the process does develop like a romance film.

If 'I'm' is really a romance, stick with what you think, it's business as usual.

I'm a Cyborg, But That's OK quotes

  • Park Il-sun: I did all kinds of things in jail. Because I felt I was vanishing. I stole other people's clothes to wear. And I brushed my teeth diligently. Once your teeth start to go, there's no turning back.

    The mythomaniac: That's true.

    Park Il-sun: I had a psych evaluation and they said I'm schizophrenic and anti-social.

    The mythomaniac: Anti-social?

    Park Il-sun: Like stealing and fighting for no reason. And not having any sense of guilt or sympathy. But I don't know why they call me anti-social. I have my reasons for stealing. I'm afraid I'll vanish. I'm anti-vanishing.
