Write some ideas

The whole movie is full of many exciting scenes, but obviously this kind of blood is very different from many shounen manga I have read before. The feelings of the protagonists in the world with a new structure are so similar to our lives. Far away, it doesn't seem so real. However, the story of Mind Games is grotesque and so close to reality, as if a distorted mirror reflects his own life, and the protagonist's blood reflects the cold blood of his life, with chills and excitement intertwined.

The protagonists seem to be on the run throughout the movie. The main body of the story starts with a rush and ends with a rush, with two rushes, the protagonist is trying to break free from a surreal world, the beginning is "heaven", and Nishi is unwilling to die, so he runs back and returns to reality, and begins to rely on "Nishi." "Confidence" changed himself and started his life again, which is also the sign of the official start of the whole story. Nishi saw a series of scenes reproducing his dead image, such as a large LED screen and a 3D image in heaven, and was told by the GOD whose image was changing all the time. is dead. There are many hints that Nishi can escape death. For example, GOD said that Nishi can't decide what GOD Zhang looks like, so GOD's image has been changing. This kind of setting is also reasonable, and it secretly tells the viewer that God is born from the heart, GOD exists in the heart, and with a strong heart, people can be invincible. The first appearance of LEDs and 3D images seems to be GOD's intention to inspire nishi to go back and change everything. When Nishi turned back and ran wild, GOD turned into a leopard to chase, but did not stop it. It seemed more like encouraging. When Nishi succeeded, GOD repeatedly whispered to Nishi who fell back to the world: "I'm on your side, I'm on your side. Your side..."

This is the first time to run away and escape, what Nishi is trying to get rid of is the cowardly and timid self in the past. Nishi's cowardice was vividly shown in the conflict in the hotel, and the previous plot also deliberately made some foreshadowing, such as not daring to take a step forward when interacting with Myon.

The last world to run away from is the belly of a whale that Nishi, Yang and Myon accidentally fell into while escaping from the mafia chase. When the three just came in, Nishi tried to escape twice, but both failed. After the loss, the three finally accepted the reality, and started life in this different world with the old man, and in fact they did live a little happier outside.

Except



for these two ultimate dashes, there are escape scenes everywhere in the movie. For example

, the scene at the beginning and the end of the leather bowl running away from the whale's belly for the second time pushed the whole movie to its climax.
