The packaging of "Thinking" is very clever, and it doesn’t say what kind of movie it is. Before entering the theater, the audience will probably only imagine that this is a set of thriller and horror movies about split personality; however, as the plot develops, the director reaches the end. He actually used an unexpected method to "feed back" the fans who have watched his works.
This is a "sequel movie" that is not stated as a sequel. It echoes the "Immortal Tribulation" set in 2000, and it is also a "worldview" drawn by the director.
"The Undead" and "Thoughts" are actually about the same world view; the previous work interprets the comic hero theme in an alternative way. Dunn, played by Booth Willis, was magically unharmed in the huge accident and played in Samuel Jackson. Under the "guidance" of Mr. Glass, he gradually embarked on the road of heroes; at the end of the film, he finally knew the terrible thoughts caused by Mr Glass's obsession with "finding heroes".
If "No" is the path of heroes' self-discovery, "Split" is the path of the villain to become a demon. Kevin, who played by James McDonald, has a sudden change in his personality split and has become a powerful "monster"; if this is a set of purely independent works, this statement may not be true; but Dunn appears at the end of the film, and Speaking of Mr Glass, this is not a mere psychological thriller.
To a certain extent, this is actually a process of constructing a world view like a comic hero; the film "No" and this film have each laid out a complete experience for the "hero" and the "villain", just like the "prequel" of a set of comic hero movies.
As in the past, the director’s script is actually very hierarchical and has many details. For example, it may be more ideal if it is transformed into a novel; he almost has a twisting position every time, and this time, but the premise of a "shock" feeling is that you Have seen the director’s previous work.
If the story is a novel or a comic, it may be more interesting; a further extension is that if this "series" has a "sequel," I definitely look forward to it.
