The movie "Dark Mind"
The film starts with the growth of a little black girl patient. She was infected with a strange disease called IAAN but did not die. She was arrested by the army and put into a concentration camp for isolation and transformation. In the concentration camp, doctors will grade the surviving children according to their superpowers. The lowest is green, the most dangerous is orange, and there are blue, yellow, and red in the middle. Different colors represent different types of superpowers: green is intelligence improvement, the most dangerous The harmless kind; blue has a certain ability to control objects, as dangerous as Magneto or Dark Phoenix; yellow seems to be able to control energy such as electricity, similar to Thunder Shazam or The Flash; red is tyrannical Aggressive like Cyclops; Orange is the highest level and can control other people's minds.
Because all superpowers are underage children, I saw a film review divide the camp into three parties.
The most powerful side is the adult entrepreneurial team representing the oppressive forces, represented by concentration camps, the military, and the president, acting crazy. As the saying goes, mental patients have broad ideas, and these people have the demeanor of entrepreneurs who are very out of their minds: treating children as patients requires treatment and care, which has high costs and incurable risks; in this case, why not Another way to see children as weapons? The red-level kids are destructive enough and manageable, so they're the best candidates for a mass-destruction army. Then in their career, these children belong to the image of "tool people". No matter what they do is right or wrong, whether it is beneficial to the society or not, as long as the "child" still has useful value, then do it and it will be over. These children are tools to maintain the original rule and class
The second party is the organizational talent in the adult ranks who sympathizes with the children and does not approve of their oppression. They formed the "Children's League" to protect super-powered children. This group of forces played an important role in saving the heroine Daly in the early stage, but suddenly disappeared, and only appeared at the end of the film, so the sense of existence was not very strong, and they only survived in the cruel business competition. That's it. This kind of small and medium-sized enterprise is similar to a kind-hearted small and medium-sized enterprise in the workplace, doing something "right" to the best of its ability. But after all, the power is too small to compete with the first-party forces.
The third party is the escaped children. They are hiding in a paradise under the leadership of the president's son Gray, who is also an orange superpower. They are the most vulnerable party, and their survival depends on not being discovered by the underworld forces. This party is similar to the young people who are just starting their own businesses. The new young people are at a loss and are being hunted everywhere, symbolizing the rookies who do not understand anything in the workplace, and their "leaders" seem to be different from them. , Maybe his nature is like this, maybe he once looked forward to the future like a rookie, but in order to survive, he eventually became a person with the same power as the first party, squeezing and exploiting children. In the third-party roles, there are also "rebels", and this role is the heroine. Her position is very hesitant, and she doesn't know what to do, but she can distinguish what should not be done, and she is also moving towards the "ideal". Sometimes it's easy to tell when something is wrong, but it's hard to say how to do it right. Whether it is the Wuhan plague or the Red Cross incident, if you put yourself in your own shoes, can you guarantee that you will handle it properly? The answer is estimated to be difficult to determine.
Some things are difficult for one person to do and require the cooperation of many people. How to coordinate and deal with it, how to communicate effectively, how to avoid corruption and waste, etc. These are all issues that need to be dealt with. The universality of contact determines the way forward. The road is unpredictable, no one can choose the absolutely correct road, only groping forward.
No one can guarantee that the heroine will become the next big villain or tool person after the fight fails. After the second-party forces get the help of the heroine, it is inevitable that they will become a new oppressive group in the future.
Crisis always goes round and round. There is no absolute right or absolute wrong. It is necessary to maintain a skeptical heart and dare to question the voice of anything.
From the perspective of the plot of the play, it may be very naive and boring, but sometimes, the "excessive interpretation" of the plot is not a new idea.
(I'm not good at writing articles, I write in a mess, and I copied some paragraphs of film reviews on the Internet. I just want to keep it for myself and watch it later. After all, ideas don't exist in the brain for a long time, but written records can exist for a long time.)
