The opening text reflects the main theme of the film: your choice determines your life.

Plot: Xi has been timid and fearful, hiding her emotions, until the girl she once liked wants to marry someone else, until the girl is almost beaten in the tavern, until she is collapsed. When Xi meets God, he knows that he is a waste. Finally, he didn't listen to God's words this time. He made his own choice and ran to the other side of nothingness. He passed God's first test and returned to the world. This time he decided to resist, kill the mob, and escape with the girl and sister. Under the chase of the underworld, the car accident in West should have died again. God said: come back so soon? Xi said that he still didn't want to die, so Xi returned to reality. It's very short here, with only two lines and no pictures, it's a magical touch. The scene switches to the three people in the belly of a whale. Xi persuades everyone to overcome fear and face the darkness optimistically. Of course, the three people do not know their situation. The grandfather I met has been sleepy here for 30 years. In fact, he is the father of the triad man with glasses. Thirty years of loneliness, once painful, the important thing is to find a way to kill time and be full of fun, so that you can have fun by yourself. In the end, the three of them played so high in the belly of the fish. However, the big fish is old and about to die, so the three people will also be suffocated to death in it. Xi said that even though the outside world is troubled and good and evil are inseparable, he still has to go back and build it with different people. In fact, the ending seems to be an open ending, and it does not clearly show whether Xi and others succeeded in their escape. Although playing the wonderful lives of the protagonists, finally returning to the tearful eyes of the old man seems to be just an imagination.

Powerful surrealist works, rich in imagination. Real and imaginary faces, the big house in the belly of a whale, the shape of God that constantly changes into all kinds of people, shapes and animals, the speed at which they escape from the belly of the whale, and the inspiration to step on all kinds of things. The various memories of the past when dying struggling to escape, slowly contrasted with each other, which can be described as extremely shocking. The flashback of events thirty years after the escape makes one feel the twists and turns of life. The end-to-end, front-to-back anaphora puts the entire scattered plot into a string, which makes you feel like you have a sudden realization. However, the plot is not the same. The identity of the underworld), glasses and Ajin became the underworld. Oo: Mi was not caught in the foot, the young glasses and the woman went off by train, and Ajin did not become a gangster, which caused the uncertainty of the subsequent results. "If I have a time belt." . . . Will life be different? However, there is only one chance in the real life! Your choice determines your life! It is worth mentioning that the flashbacks at the beginning and the end are mixed with modern Japanese history, major events such as wars, the Olympics, and the life journeys of the characters.

The rhythm of this film is very fast, especially the beginning and the end. It may not be enough to watch it once, you need to go back and compare it!
