Scoring from a mother's perspective-this is too good to see! ! ! Six stars!

At the end of the film, when Sandra was chased by an invisible monster running in the jungle, she actually made me cry. The monster was very powerful at that moment. In order to infect her frantically, she tried to tempt her to take off her blindfold through voice (So far, very few monsters can speak in such a large area, and they have no physical form. But the script loopholes. Not what I want to talk about,). The voice and the power of the monster were so great that it seemed to be difficult for Sandra to resist. She, who had always been very strong, almost wanted to remove her blindfold. But she recalled the scared little girl by apologizing and acknowledging that I love you, and at the same time she found her determination to protect the children. So she ran faster too, and ran the two children under the armpit one by one, with her fingers tightly embedded in the children's clothes. At that moment, it made me cry: as a mother, no matter how difficult the time, she will burst out with the courage and strength to run with children no matter how heavy they are.

On the whole, the script has nothing huge to make people want to complain about, just because it can make me cry, I like it very much. In addition to favorite places, there is a clever appearance of bad guy Gary. Soon after the movie started, we saw the scene five years later, that is, the current scene, so we knew all at once that the group of people who had seen it together five years ago should have died. My first thought was that five years ago, everyone gathered together to survive. Each has its own strengths, is organized and smart, and has a theoretical basis (about the source of the monster). It looks like a group of people who can survive, why are they all dead? With this suspense, I really want to watch it (I immediately gave the baby in my hand to the aunt, ready to watch without interruption). When Gary was put in the door, people felt vaguely unknown, but he looked normal, and everyone's life quickly returned to the right track, so I didn't make me think that this person was the reason at all! It wasn't until the two mothers were about to give birth, that when Gary opened the drawing book and laid out very scary monster sketches (really very evil and scary, like the designer) on the table, you didn't think, ah It turns out that he is a pervert who is not affected by monsters! At that moment, I saw the tips of my fingers become icy, and my heart was cold (especially at the most critical and fragile moments). When the two women had just given birth and were holding their babies upstairs, Gary froze and went upstairs. Ashamed and ashamed, I was also the one who had just given birth to a child recently. That section was skipped and I really can't watch it. But I'm really happy to learn that the black man survived.

I also like the montages of Sandra raising children in military training and successfully raising them into five-year-olds. Her military training method of raising children really makes the children less able to feel the warmth and love. They may not be sound enough in their hearts, but at least their bodies have survived soundly. After all, the mother's eternal first principle is that the child can survive first. Sandra looks harsh, but it is actually more harsh for the mother to suppress the feeling of wanting to hug the child and just lie down and play like that. If it were me, I would definitely give the kids names like boy & girl. The same is true for the heroine of breakfast at Tiffany's who calls her cat called cat. If she doesn’t name her “belonging”, she is ready to be displaced and will lose his/her/its psychological preparation at any time. Otherwise, we can’t Live every day without knowing the future. Originally, Sandra’s character setting was that she didn’t want children, and she didn’t like babies that much (the opposite of the chubby girl’s innate desire to be a gentle mother), so her later harshness was based on the rigor of the script. Still very reasonable.

I like the scene of the "meeting under the blanket" before reaching the rapids. At that time, we already knew that boy was Sandra's biological son, and girl was fat mother's daughter. Although we, as the audience, cannot be sure that girl and boy know this or not (Sandra shouldn't be the kind of sugarcoat person, and would not tell them that they were both born to her, I think). A five-year-old may be too young to let Sandra get down to explain who is whose child? Anyway, it’s about to reach the rapids. Sandra said that it’s dangerous to watch the rapids by yourself, but you have to watch it. Boy immediately said, I am coming! Sandra broke out in an instant, shouting I DECIDE! Girl immediately seemed to understand something, and whispered, let me take a look. Sandra did not say anything this time, and I immediately applauded the subtlety of the script - it does not falsely beautify/deny the selfishness of humanity (especially motherhood) - if one of the two children must be sacrificed when it is dangerous, It should be the one who wants to protect his own life, the one adopted at the expense of it. But Sandra's silence and temptation were only about ten seconds, and her final decision was NO ONE LOOKS - it also made me cry. Although the little girl was adopted, she has been with Sandra since she was born. The oxytocin hormone that stimulates motherhood is also overwhelmed in Sandra, who has just given birth. So basically Sandra treats her as her own baby. This situation is like asking a mother who is saving her two children in an earthquake. The answer is always - two! indivual! All! save! (I still don’t have a second child, so that it’s easier to escape at the end of the world. If you can run with one kid, if you have two, you have to run like Sandra on the left and the right and the other is under the armpit, then it should be It can only be a movie)

The female director said that the most important thing for her to make this film is a positive and hopeful ending, which is awesome! Eliminate all script loopholes! The original book is very dark. The people in the school for the blind are actually self-stabbing. In the original script, Sandra almost blinded the children. But the movie has a beautiful ending (ignoring for the time being, the interlaced vines and vines have a lot of gaps in the ceiling to allow large tracts of sunlight to come in-won't the monsters come in? Anyway, you can ignore it, after all, the lens is as beautiful and beautiful as the Garden of Eden), let tight I took a sigh of relief, and I didn't feel very depressed after watching it (the director cares very much about this effect). Hurry up to hug my girl after watching, the soft and warm one, basically there is no possibility of escape. Carrying her to flee in the end of the world, and let her suffer a little bit, such a thing can't even think about it, tears can come out when you think about it. So thank you very much for having this movie, so that I can feel a true portrayal of a mother who protects her child in the end of the world from a safe distance.
