Watching American films, I often get caught up in the dazzling gimmicks in the film, but the deep things inside the film are invisible. Many people watched this film and only talked about how superman is and how good the 3D special effects are. Even professional designers only focus on the various settings in the film. The value of the film itself can only be hidden under these gorgeous coats, quietly waiting to be discovered by the interested audience.
The status of Superman is clearly stated at the beginning of the film. It is precisely because of the difference of superpowers that they cannot live normally in the real community, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble and danger. All superpowers have a status of "on the ground", and they can live normally, work, and shop. But since those with superpowers possess superpowers, they must bear the responsibilities that follow. All these superpowers have a strong sense of responsibility. Responsibility is also like a double-edged sword. While performing their duties, people with superpowers will inevitably fall into the predicament that others need or don’t need. So not long after the film started, it showed the damage caused by the sense of responsibility of super powers to them. Because of the danger of his own work, Mr. Super Bob, in order to avoid causing injuries to others, hastily refused a small fan who wanted to join Superman. The demands of the team have planted a bigger hidden danger-hatred born of love, and small fans have become the biggest villains.
After Bob’s wedding with elastic girl Elastigirl·Helen, due to Bob’s previous reckless rescue behavior, the citizens have accused the superheroes of doing things recklessly, asking the superpowers to abandon their supernatural behaviors and let the people live a normal life, Bob Reluctantly waved goodbye to the people he loved.
In today's society, on the one hand, people are advocating "doing what is righteous", but on the other hand, few people are willing to do what is right. In American ethics, "being brave to do what is right" is not advocated, because American law stipulates that the duty of the police is to protect the lives and property of the people, and what the people need to do in a crisis is to call the police immediately and try to ensure Your own safety. This law has been deeply rooted in the United States. Many people in the United States have been helped or reported to the police. For example, some of their belongings have been stolen, some locals have reported to the police after witnessing them, and some have illegally smoked, drunk, or made trouble in public places. , Was called to the police by the locals.
Therefore, Bob's superhuman status is banned, making Bob's sense of justice and superpowers useless, and he cannot help those in need, which makes him even more sad. He loved those around him and his compatriots, but his compatriots selfishly asked him and his companions to withdraw from the ranks of the "Guardians of Peace". Some viewers think that Bob is reluctant to be the kind of glory when he became Superman, but this is just the surface. From the spontaneous anger when Bob saw the gangsters in his boss’s office, we can see that Bob is by no means a superficial Shower. He really wants to help others and protect others, so he saw the gangsters. After succeeding, he is very sad, but his boss asks provocatively, so that he can hardly restrain the anger in his heart and get into trouble recklessly.
Bob's wife, Helen, is a female after all. Due to the weakness of female psychology and the responsibilities of a mother and wife to the family, she gradually hid the responsibilities of superpowers in her heart and turned to become a full-time housewife. She was willing to live a life like normal people, and gave up her original superpower duties. Helen taught her sons and daughters Violet and Dash in the same way, let them try to be ordinary people willingly and hide their super powers. She didn't know or even didn't want to know what super powers Jackjack had. She knows that Dash has speeding ability, and she also knows that Dash really wants to participate in the school running competition, but blindly prevents him and wants him to "become" like his classmates. These teaching behaviors directly led to Violet's low self-esteem. Because of her superpowers that are different from ordinary people, she only chooses to avoid the boys she likes. Helen's wrong education caused serious psychological problems for his children.
For many years of hiding his identity, Bob carried his family, police and government on his back, and often carried out various rescue activities secretly with his friend Frzone. He was discovered by the personal assistant of his grown-up fan Syndrome and became their next extinction target. It wasn't until Bob discovered this conspiracy in the Syndrome base island that he knew that in the days when all the superheroes were hidden, many of them had been ruthlessly killed by the agency that hired him one by one. This also prompted him to decide to confront this institution.
When Helen found Bob's repaired combat uniform, he became suspicious and went to Edna mode for inquiries, only to learn Bob's lie. But the long-term housewife's life of pots and pans made Helen forget her responsibilities as an Elastigirl. Edna couldn't bear the embarrassment of a former superhero crying and crying in front of him, and he awoke Helen with some words, and Helen remembered his identity as a superpower. Then Helen plucked up the courage and faced what was about to happen, and went to rescue Bob alone. But a pair of sons and daughters who were also superpowers sneaked into the cabin, and a series of troubles happened immediately. Only then did Helen remind his sons and daughters that their superpowers were not for decoration. After a bitter battle in the isolated island, Helen not only truly understood the meaning of his superpowers, but also understood the value of teamwork, the existence of comrades, and the importance of fighting together. Violet learned to be strong and courageous, and to face everything bravely, Dash also Understand that superpowers are not for showing off, but for helping others. So when they returned to the city and Bob wanted to fight alone again, Helen told Bob what he had learned: Since a person is not strong enough, why not try to cooperate with his comrades? It took more than ten years for Bob to understand from his wife that fighting alone is just a sign of weakness, and trust is the way to gain comrades and become strong. Bob and his friend Frozone, as well as his wife and children Helen, Violet, and Dash work together to destroy Syndrome's invincible robot.
After Syndrome kidnapped Jackjack to threaten Bob and his wife, Helen wanted to escape. Helen became wise and asked Bob to throw himself out and use his super power to save Jackjack. This really made the Superman family realize the value of his super power-anytime. Be the help of others everywhere, and plan the function as the support of others.
This is also a typical American way of thinking, based on the moral values of the Christian faith. It is by no means a "superhero theory" as some people call it, but an allegorical moral and ethical education. Just as superpowers are the traits of superpowers, so everyone has their own unique traits. The question is not what this trait is, but whether he can recognize this trait of himself and how to train, use, and develop this trait to do valuable things. God gives everyone different abilities and characteristics, and gives them different identities. It is not for them to avoid and hide blindly, but for them to give full play to the ability given by God. This is in line with God's original intention. .
Despite being superheroes, Bob, Helen, Violet, and Dash still need to grow, and they need to constantly understand the meaning of life, and all of this must start with a clear understanding of themselves. A person who cannot see himself clearly cannot grow. After arduous battles, the super family understands the meaning of their existence and their responsibilities as superpowers. After Dash successfully concealed his abilities and won the runner-up in the running competition, the family was happy for him, and when the criminals appeared again At that time, they wore face masks fearlessly to meet the new battle.
As the "Old Testament · Joshua" in the "Bible" said, "You should be strong and courageous, don't be afraid, and don't panic" (Old Testament · Joshua 1:9). The idea expressed by The Incredibles is to tell the audience that you must first know who you are and then understand your value. Next, work hard, don't be afraid, and don't be confused!
