Hope is a disaster, but I can fight back in a desperate way to survive

The first thing I think of when watching this film is Redick 3 and Fast Furious 7, apocalyptic theme plus motorcycle hurricane. If you say that Redick only sees the whole body muscles of Van Saidier, then you can see both muscular men, charming women, and muscular women with broken arms in this film.

Let's start with the woman with a broken arm first. The shape of the bald head and iron arms indeed formed a huge contrast with the beauties in white behind the car. Women can be soft and beautiful, women can be more rigid and beautiful. Hardness and softness combined, wisdom escaped from the devil's cave, but women still can't do without the help of men.

The men below are on the stage. A mad Max, a little white face, one in charge of muscle defense, and one in charge of the only funny thing in the film.

Because I haven't watched the first three, I don't know why Max wants to be called Crazy Max. He is full of strength, has first-rate survival ability, is affectionate, has human nature, and knows what trust is. From the initial instinct to resist the enemy, Max was moved by Theron to follow his life. This is a tender iron man. He told Theron that hope is disaster. He taught the girls the cruel rules of survival, hope is unreliable, survival is the kingly way. Hope sometimes leads people to a dead end, but the instinct to survive often makes people fight back.

With the appearance of the little white face at the beginning of the movie, I didn't expect him to become one of the protagonists. This is a child who can throw his life out of faith. But when the personal adoration of the big monster boss meets the comfort of the love of his own beauty, the appearance of love opens the door to another world for him, let him know that he can still be loved.

Speaking of love, I think this is the real theme of the film. When Theron took a group of beauties to escape, they wrote under the wall, "We are not things", which meant that by the old monsters, they will always be tools for inheritance. The chastity locks cut by them symbolize They break free from the shackles. Their love includes the love of mother-to-be beauties for free life, the love of red-haired beauties for little white faces, and the love of beauties with blond and long legs for grandmothers. And Max also has his own love for Theron, a kind of intolerance, a kind of touch, a kind of walking with his body.

Let's talk about the old grannies who appeared at the end of the film. This also requires returning to the beginning of the film review and returning to the topic of women. The appearance of the grandma makes the film truly gather all the images of women. There are wet nurses sitting in the house like cows being milked, beautiful young girls with beautiful faces, big-bellied expectant mothers with strong personality, and experienced women. The broken-arm women of Theron, together with the grandmothers, symbolize the eternal struggle of women, the end-of-the-day struggle against nature, and the struggle against male domination. They have all the yearning for beauty, just like the one in the grandmother’s bag. A green plant is like a newborn in the belly of a dead mother.

There are too many mixed elements in this film, feminine theme, male power, burning locomotive, and cold end times. However, the integration is really seamless, just like the editing of this film.

Finally, we need to give special praise to the soundtrack of the film, which is a perfect match with the metal locomotive.
