Have you ever thought that a certain time, a certain place, in this world, you only have a fragment, and a strand of obsession and consciousness that is nowhere to be placed, and such you rely on the eight minutes before the death of the undead Memory becomes the source code. In this short eight minutes, shuttle and grow, experience and understand.
Gyllenhaal is still as charming as Brokeback Mountain, but he has become a stubborn, violent, sad, confused, emotional and fantasy Captain Steven. He woke up and found himself in a fast-moving train. Above, Christina, who is sitting opposite, seems to be familiar with him. And he became another person, and just as Steven was about to find out the truth of the incident, a big explosion happened and everything was wiped out. Every time Steven returned to this train of carriages, he felt different, from the initial resistance to rejection, to the longing for the happiness of clenching, and dying without regret.
Perhaps the most attractive part of the source code lies in the tightly interlocking plot, the unconcealed thinking about human nature and the pressing questioning, the relationship between a son who is not good at communicating with his elderly father, and the belief of a soldier. With loyalty and constant questions about who I am, who created me, and who determined me.
Philosophically speaking, all the freedom a person can have is the freedom of choice, which is the so-called free will. In this respect, Captain Steven at least has the freedom to choose death, even if this choice brought him such a different ending.
Steven finally lived in the train and the world that he changed the ending. In the film, Steven repeatedly returned to the eight minutes before the explosion, bringing a different future to the people on the train and the woman. And the ending, the doctor who created the source code said that all of this is illusory, and the captain actually lives in the world that should be illusory. Does this mean that for those dreams and illusions that we deny, they have truly exist
Have you ever thought that there is another me in this world with the same appearance and personality, but starting from a certain turning point, I have a different life and ending with me? If so, I just want to tell you: everything will gonna be ok .
In this world, every minute, every second, may be a different self, and I just want to live a good life.
