What should I say, because I watched Butterfly Effect 1 last night, I thought it was a very good movie. So today, I specially looked for Butterfly Effect 2 to see it, and I was looking forward to it at first. Because in the first part, the plot arrangement in the play and the thought-provoking ending made me look forward to watching Butterfly Effect II. Sadly, I was a little disappointed by the whole movie. Maybe it's because the expectations are too high, the plot development in the play, the foreshadowing, and the compactness are far less than the first one. The film is about the protagonist Nick, in order to save his girlfriend who died in a car accident, and finds that he can change all this by going back in time through photos. But unfortunately, as the number of times he goes back to the past increases, what he can change is not to make things better, but to get worse. In the end, Nick chose to sacrifice himself to help others, although in many ways this film is not as good as the first one. However, there are still some points to be commended. At least it continues the theme of the butterfly effect. The actor's acting skills are relatively in-depth and detailed, and the plot is relatively compact.
Watching the Butterfly Effect series of films during this period has made me think a lot and also understand some things. We are not God, and we do not have the ability to control everything. After all, life is not smooth sailing, there are always some bumps. Like the protagonist of the story, do we always want to go back to the past and change everything in the present, or do we start to change ourselves now, face the reality bravely, and be a caring person. Maybe everyone's answer is different, but I personally feel that the past cannot be traced back, and there is no way to start all over again. In the past, I always regretted what I did in the past, and always naively thought that if I had chosen a different person, would the current self be what I always wanted. In fact, this is an act of escapism and responsibility, and now I will not do so. Instead, seize the moment, face reality, and be a capitalist!
