I especially want to understand the last scene. Liu Jianming, played by Andy Lau, has become a cripple. His ex-wife came to see him. At this time, the love of his life, the dead sister Mary appeared behind him and shot him. Some people say that this shot is symbolic to express that Liu Jianming has died in his heart.
wrong! I think Liu Jianming is reborn, because the fundamental reason why Liu Jianming became an undercover gangster with police identity is Sister Mary, but he wants to be a good person again. In the film, he is schizophrenic and thinks he is Chen Yongren. After that shot, he kept beating the Morse code. That was Chen Yongren's action. The director meant it should be that this shot killed Liu Jianming's personality. After all, he became a good person. He became Chen Yongren. He finally redeemed himself.
At this time, only the Buddhist scriptures in the film are left in my ears: such a generation will fall into the endless hell, thousands of billions of kalpas, and this will continue, and seek the eternal. It's wrong to think about it, didn't Liu Jianming finally redeem himself and become Chen Yongren? Didn't he become a good person? The Buddhism in the film said, "If you are equal, you will fall into the endless hell. out of date"?
Today I will talk about my opinion. I will re-interpret this scene. After Liu Jianming was schizophrenic, he was completely disabled and could only sit in a wheelchair. His ex-wife, a novelist, came to visit him (the ex-wife is also called Mary). , it can be seen that Liu Jianming loves the underworld sister Mary, and the novelist's ex-wife Mary has a subtext of a substitute) At this time, Liu Jianming was completely crazy, and when he saw the novelist's ex-wife Mary, he had hallucinations: the underworld sister Mary appeared in him at the same time. behind him, and then shot him to death. After this moment, Liu Jianming's personality completely disappeared, and Chen Yongren lived in his body. The novelist's ex-wife Mary said: Daughter will be called Dad. But at this moment, Liu Jianming has become Chen Yongren. The "crippled Chen Yongren" can only move his fingers. He typed the Morse code on the wheelchair by acting as an undercover agent to deliver the message: "hel"
This is "hello" to a stranger's daughter, and "hell" to himself in hell.
Earlier I said that this inexplicable scene symbolized Liu Jianming's final redemption. God or Sister Mary finally gave him the opportunity to become the good person he thought: Chen Yongren. He just redeemed himself. Then why did he become Chen Yongren and said he was in hell? Because of being trapped in Liu Jianming's crippled body? Isn't Chen Yongren a good person, why is he treated like this by the director?
Liu Jianming is a good person by nature, just like what he said in the film, "I want to be a good person, why don't I give it a chance?" It was destroyed by Liu Jianming's "evil". Liu Jianming's "evil" started because of Sister Mary, and was destroyed because of Sister Mary.
The interesting thing is that Sister Mary was killed by Liu Jianming again, and Sister Mary also got up because of her own "evil". (The root cause of the big storm is that Sister Mary wants her husband Han Chen to be the eldest brother, just like she said. Question: Which woman doesn't want her husband to be good? She arranged Liu Jianming to assassinate the boss Ni Kun for her own selfish desires) She asked Liu Jianming to do "bad" things, causing great storms, but with the promotion of the storms, she loved her the most Liu Jianming took the initiative to kill her again. Sister Mary also perished because of her "evil".
In the end, Liu Jianming's body was completely disabled, his body was considered dead, his mind and soul became Chen Yongren again, and Liu Jianming's soul also disappeared. Where is Liu Jianming in this world? Liu Jianming is also dead.
But Chen Yongren survived. The details in the film explain that he actually had a daughter with his ex-girlfriend, but he didn't know it. And he was ratified as a police officer. When you see this, you feel that good and evil are finally rewarded!
But the director seems to be sneering again, ? Good and evil finally tell about the laws of things, and it seems that it has nothing to do with the characters!
Chen Yongren did not receive good rewards, and even from the perspective of Buddhism, he is by no means "good", he just attracts the audience to like it. Chen Yongren will never know that he still has a biological daughter, and he will never know that he posthumously recognized his identity as a policeman and became a hero of the police force. He was in hell every second before his death. He will never turn over. He can only be reviled by thousands of people as an underworld, and he died sadly without any relatives and no reason. Because Chen Yongren also did evil.
Chen Yongren went undercover in order to be a good policeman. This seems to be a completely good character. How can it be considered evil? As you can imagine, how could he not do evil if he could become a core member of a gang? Then Chen Yongren's so-called evil behavior is nothing more than doing small evil for the sake of great good, right? Let's just say that his actions are petty evil.
But the Buddhist concept is: Don't underestimate the small evil and the small good, the great evil and the great good are all formed from this. What is the difference between the great good, the small good, the great evil, and the small evil? That undercover act is not good in itself. Why did Chen Yongren go undercover? He also has selfish desires and obsessions. From the perspective of Buddhism, his selfish desires and obsessions are: only being a policeman and fighting the underworld is good, and being an ordinary person is not good. (Because he is the illegitimate son of Ni Kun, the underworld boss, the police academy didn't want him after he found out, and finally Huang Sir gave him a chance. Don't you have to be a policeman? Okay, go undercover.) For his own selfish thoughts, He has also done a lot of evil, the most classic one is that he betrayed his brother Ni Yongxiao of the same blood, which directly led to the death of Ni Yongxiao, and the death of Ni Yongxiao directly led to the death of many innocent relatives in his family, and even Including Ni Yongxiao's only a few years old daughter. Ni Yongxiao was a big boss and suspected Chen Yongren many times, but he chose to kill other people undercover to warn his younger brother and forgive Chen Yongren.
Chen Yongren punished "evil" in the way of "evil", and he became "evil" itself. Even if he was resurrected in Liu Jianming's body, he could only knock a hel in his crippled body...
You see people who have done evil are struggling in hell, and no one can get out! No matter how you interpret this series of movies, you can't escape this Buddhist scripture in the end: If you are equal, you will fall into the endless hell, thousands of billions of kalpas, and this will continue forever, and you will find no end.
Ask for no expiration date! You fine product, what is asking for indefinite? Not just Liu Jianming, a good person who can only do bad things! Even Liu Jianming became Chen Yongren after schizophrenia, thinking that becoming Chen Yongren would make him a good person and escape from hell, but after becoming Chen Yongren, Chen Yongren was not a good person, and Chen Yongren was also in hell, so Chen Yongren could only be trapped in a crippled state. The body taps one with a finger: hel (hell)
