[The Hunger Games] is criticized and cannot escape [Battle Royale]. The original novel does have a lot in common with [Battle Royale] in terms of settings, but the plot trend is different. If you vent your grievances in the movie The above is too unfair. I personally think that [The Hunger Games] is not as deep as [Battle Royale] in terms of ideas. It is to put young men and women together and set up a seemingly cruel survival game. What is more promoted is truth, goodness and beauty, and stretches the main emotional line between men and women. , Use a love triangle as a footnote (actually, use Hammer’s brother as a footnote ==). After all, the heroine Katniss did not rely on killing to win the final victory. In addition, she solved a half of the opponent with her own hands. Opponents), they are all shots in a defensive state. That is to say, the protagonist has not changed much in humanity and spirit. He has not killed his eyes, let alone love and kill each other, which is a plot that you did not discuss. On the contrary, it is more like a big show, and he has learned some entertainment. Then I went home.
It is like [Twilight City], the grand background of humans, vampires, and werewolves entangled and chased each other, but it is just a guise for the love triangle, mainly a romance drama that attracts teenagers to pay for it. [The Hunger Games] It’s also a bit like this. Katniss had a good relationship with Gale in his hometown before. It is the kind of trust that his family can entrust, but he has to try to survive with Peeta, who has always been secretly in love with him, representing the 12th district. Peeta is definitely boring. The high-level representative, publicly confessing this kind of thing confuses the heroine, and he is too entertaining. . . Squeezed by the desire for life instinct and commercial show (showing is for sponsorship, the fundamental purpose of sponsorship is to survive), the revolutionary feelings of life and death that are dependent on life and death gradually burst into true feelings, and even intend to die together. This state is already Gale, who helped watch the children in his hometown, could never catch up. Speaking of this, when Gale, who had always claimed not to watch the Hunger Games live broadcast, looked up and saw Katniss kissing Peeta in the cave. At that time, Brother Hammer looked really abused! On the train home, Peeta asked what to do when he went back. It was obviously a "I don't want to be beaten
to death by Gale"~ Look, it's still a youth romance, but it uses the premise of death. It makes many people feel bloody and terrifying, but in fact it is unnecessary. The amount of blood shed by this movie may not be as much as an episode of HBO TV series. Don’t think of this movie as a killing genre anymore. It’s constantly struggling and the rhythm is so procrastinated and so slow. If you want to come up, just hack it and it will become a B-level movie. You can count on an auntie Yang who writes a youth idol drama. Is it cult? Why don't you go and watch more QT films to relieve your boredom? Except for the scenes that took less than half a minute to rob the equipment in the opening scene, which showed the small excitement of hacking each other, the subsequent deaths are basically understatements. You can't figure out who subdued whom when the camera is shaking, and you feel nervous. It was gone, and even Cato broke a boy's neck in horror without warning. Four pretentious people from the first and second districts teamed up to hunt down their opponents, but in the end there was only one winner. Think about it if these four live to kill each other at the end, it would be the most terrifying. Of course, neither the script nor the Katniss Give this chance~
There are a lot of bad things in the story. The selected players ranged from 12 to 18 years old. The young children were hacked to death before they had time to touch the equipment. This is simply to die. It is not fair at all. Of course, according to the original meaning, this event is to deter the idea of rebellion in various districts. If it sounds good, it is for honor competition. If it sounds bad, it means that the big boss has to punish the people in the 12 districts, so it is nothing to mention fairness. There is also the arena controlled by high-tech personnel. It’s too high-tech. What do you want? The players can escape from killing each other and can’t escape man-made disasters. The big black guy in District 11 is the victim. Play Sims at home. . .
As for political metaphors, I can see that those in power use extreme methods to suppress potential rebellion (in fact, this method is the most arousing public outrage), ranking the first few districts against the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth districts. Waiting for the contempt of a few fringe areas (the city looks down on the countryside), the all-black district 11 (this is a political factor that can be brought out by the Yankees), and the fact that Katniss’ father went to the mine to be blown to death makes me a little bit of a play. paragraph. . . (Did the General Administration really notice this paragraph at the time?)
In fact, when the outside world has stuffed [The Hunger Games] with such and other elements, it is better to let go of unrealistic expectations and treat it as a youth idol drama. To shed some blood, witness death, make a show, and fall in love. No matter how much you look down on this film, based on its influence and box office in North America, the next two films are already ready to go. Making money is a businessman’s instinct. Don’t scold if you don’t like it. Review [Battle Royale] a few more times to calm your mood.
