It's a fight movie

In fact, this film is simply that the teacher told the female student to analyze it rationally, I should choose me instead of the male lead, the female lead refuted me and liked him, what are you saying. Then the whole class is reduced to a quarrel between a pair of old lovers.

In fact, the female protagonist is a real-time entertainer. What does it matter if she can live happily and die in the end?
And the teacher also made it clear that he was irrational, or wanted to use the teacher to satirize those hypocrites who were rational but actually inconsistent in their words and deeds.

Other characters actually have a weak sense of existence. Even the male protagonist (I don't even think the male protagonist is him, he is at most the new boyfriend of the female protagonist), although there are many scenes, his performance is not outstanding, and he is basically a mere mortal. Although he entered the plot with his vision at the beginning, it ended with the teacher's shot, and the teacher should be the male protagonist.

The film raises a few thinking questions, but it only stops at the point, and does not go deep, so although it is under the banner of philosophy, there is not much philosophical depth in fact, and more is just left for the audience to think about philosophy, but the space for thinking gives Too big, and as a result the story has no content.

Although the plot is simple and the connotation is not enough, it is still a good movie for those who have been exposed to philosophy for the first time or have not been exposed to it. I'll give just a passing grade.

After the Dark quotes

  • Petra: We live... briefly, yes. Imperfectly? Of course. Stupidly? Sometimes. But we don't mind, because that's the way we're made. And when it's time to die, we don't resist death; we summon it.

  • Mr. Zimit: Do you know what apocalypse actually means?

    Petra: Tell me.

    Mr. Zimit: It's from the Greek "apokálypsis", meaning to uncover what you couldn't see before... a way out of the dark.

    Petra: Your sweet talk still needs work.
