So I went back to the scene where Hancock and Mary were fighting, the search for the truth, some abrupt tornadoes, heavy clouds and two supermen.
So it rained not long after, heavy rain.
I don't know why the title was translated as "Superman", which is very strange. It's just the name Hancock.
It is not what I imagined that the American people will eventually become superhumans.
The current title translation is very peculiar.
He is a superman. At the beginning of the movie, a child wakes him up from drunkenness and asks him to catch criminals.
He will not go.
The child said "Jackass".
So he went, fighting the crime and causing catastrophic damage to the city, once again exceeding the previous damage.
He punishes the criminals by violent means and doesn't care about public protests.
However, the word "Jackass" he didn't like to hear, jerk.
Because he is a hero, a hero that others don't like but needs very much.
He had a feeling of being needed, at least he himself thought so, not relying on his invulnerable body, he needs to know his life experience, he needs care.
Superman went to serve his sentence, so the increase in crime rate made people panic, so Superman was released early because the chief of police came to ask for help.
Who has thought about what Hancock thinks, his choice.
For Hancock, the eighty years he lost his memory had lived a miserable life without dignity.
He saves mankind, but he doesn't understand a way to be accepted. Without the respect and honor he deserves, he lives alone and confused.
And for Mary, what does immortality mean?
Now she has a family and a normal life. I think this is not the first mortal life in 80 years.
In Mary's words, with Hancock, their superpowers will gradually disappear, and then they will become mortals. When she was with him, she always encountered a bad situation.
Hancock has lost her memory, and we don't know if Mary's words are true, or if she feels that the earth needs people to save, and she herself needs an ordinary life.
So because they were so attractive, he met his former lover, who was equally immortal and full of strength.
Then there is a terrible consequence, they will lose their superpowers together.
So Hancock was injured. Mary went to the hospital to visit, tell him all the reasons, and tell him what they had happened.
Then, the escaped mob came to revenge, so she died and he lived, and he left her to live.
Why don't two people who rely on each other's destiny choose to live in seclusion instead of aging and death together?
This is not a purely American-style hero film, but it is still full of strong American-style beliefs. It is undeniable that they need the support of illusory heroes.
Instead of love.
I don't understand why Mary wants Hancock to be a hero instead of being a mortal and experiencing birth, old age, sickness and death with her.
Maybe [them] those people don't need love, they are born to save the world.
However, Mary said that there were many people like them before, and they all died in the end.
I think it can be understood that those who have died have also made a choice, they have chosen love, they have chosen to become mortals, and they choose to die.
Perhaps the hero is destined to be branded with a lonely destiny, so as a hero, he is destined not to live an ordinary life, and he will face violent bullets in the future.
And the one he loves, the one destined to be with him, watch the moon with another man.
But who knows, is he willing to be a hero?
