The protagonist of the story is called Ben X, and X itself can refer to a group of people, a phenomenon. Ben has a relatively serious autism in real life and is out of tune with the world around him. In the world of "Overlord", full-level characters are used to find a sense of existence. This kind of setting can be seen everywhere in the stories about teenagers with Internet addiction, escaping from reality, escaping pressure, and choosing a world that can be calmly faced. The sentence "Thank you, please leave me alone" should touch many moviegoers. In fact, the biggest meaning of our life in this world is to live itself. Why do we have to stand out? Why do we have to be able to integrate into this society , why do you have to be recognized by others? Not only in impetuous China, but all over the world more or less. We have long been accustomed to imposing our own values and worldviews on others. What do you want? , can't be how or not, maybe these are normal judgments for us, but in the face of an existence different from us, such as Ben, as long as he can continue on the journey of his life, even if he is alive In his own world, why not.
We are accustomed to treating people who are different from us in a strange way. In elementary school, we bully those short, thin, and untalkative classmates. When we arrive in college, we can’t stand those classmates who are dressed in rustic clothes and speak substandard Mandarin. We are accustomed to stand A certain height uses a certain self-righteous standard to measure those different existences. When Ben said: "I tried very hard to learn everything around me, but I forgot the most important one, which is to learn to lie and deceive" I don't know how many people feel a sting deep in their hearts, and those who don't tolerate and understand only when Ben uses a trick to confront them with the evil they've done, when the flash and the camera are on them. Showing an uncomfortable look, the two guys who bully Ben in the film are a bit extreme, but they are not the epitome of those who don't know tolerance and understanding.
The girl in the film has always been the focus of controversy. Everyone has their own opinions on whether she exists and whether she has truly intervened in Ben's life. In my understanding, this girl should exist in the game, and she also I have actually been to the train station, otherwise I would have to play two numbers by myself and have to write an email to myself. There is a cute girl in it. It would be too schizophrenic, but I definitely didn't have the courage to strike up a conversation with the girl. Leaving, as for the girl who was inseparable with Ben, she was just a product of Ben's autism. The person who wanted to save her life when she knew about her life by crashing a train was Ben herself, although in the process of watching it. Some doubt whether she really exists, but at the end of the conversation, it makes people suddenly enlightened. Indeed, where can you find such a good girl in real life, beautiful, cute, considerate, and willing to accompany With such a very abnormal boy. Her bright red coat also looked a little out of place in the dark-toned film.
"Courage decides everything to do what you once thought you couldn't do", when Ben said this at the train station, I once thought that because the girl had overcome his cowardice, he was going to face life bravely, but when I It makes people feel very embarrassed when he realizes that he still missed it, and the girl behind is just a product of his own imagination...
The scenes where games and reality are intertwined have been flashing constantly in the film, noble knights and despicable orcs, It is also unrealistic to completely strip the autism of the game and talk about the death cross that judges fate. The meaning of the game to Ben may be the meaning of survival to a large extent. If there is no such game, perhaps Ben will also be addicted to other things. Even some kind of art, or even becoming a master of a generation, but there are no assumptions in this world. Ben chose online games. This is a world that is meaningless to ordinary people, especially the Chinese, but it is precisely this setting. Let the meaning of this film be deeper. The tolerance and understanding we give can't create anything, and there is nothing we understand about him letting him develop his own hobbies and making a boy become a legend. There are at least one legendary story. The grief of a closed boy...
"His autism is a problem with him, but it's not a problem for him. What other people do is the problem. Others, they have to learn to let go of my child" The father of the last Ben of the film said.
