I don't know why there are so many good reviews. The techniques used are very easy to understand, nothing more than the distillation method, and the similar compatibility principle of using organic matter. In order to extract these substances, it is not necessary to kill people. However, because the protagonist has low negotiating ability, and subjectively has no idea of persuading others to cooperate, and we see that the protagonist has prepared a murder weapon when calling a prostitute, it can be seen that his motive to kill people is premeditated. The innocence of the ignorant cannot explain the protagonist, because when the delivery woman wants to look at the huge distillation vessel, the protagonist shows great panic, and has a motive for murder. When a man sees killing as the only way to get others to compromise, there is nothing to sympathize with and nothing to understand. At the same time, the protagonist clearly knows that his behavior is a crime. We can think that he is still obsessed and continues to kill even though he knows the serious consequences of murder. Therefore, the behavior of the protagonist cannot be excused by "ignorance without guilt". In the
film, it is particularly emphasized that the protagonist did not sexually assault the victim. I think this not only fails to reflect the purity of the protagonist's mind, but reflects from the side that the protagonist has no sexual assault on the victim. In other words, women are nothing more than carriers of special organic secretions, and they are also characterized by their superficial appearance to classify their secretions. It can be seen that for the protagonist, the opposite sex, and even everyone else, as a flesh-and-blood life body, is nothing but the significance of its smell. This behavior is indistinguishable from other one-sided ways of looking at people. This kind of behavior can be the same as "money worship" and "appearance association". In essence, they are all one-sided and single-sided to see a certain characteristic of the target body that is particularly beneficial to them, and then try to use it. Our common use methods are seduce, buy, make friends and so on. But the protagonist took the most cruel way, just do her. We can understand that the protagonist does not want to have a physical relationship with the object of his work. For he thought that apart from the organic secretions that carry the smell, the other organisms of man are inferior.
The director deliberately made Ge Nuyi white enough to justify his cruelty by telling long stories about his childhood experiences; reducing the visual impact brought by the killing process to reduce the audience's potential sympathy for the victim; even when the victim died, Give them some artistic poses, as if they deserve to die, they should die. In addition, Ge Nuyi is an EDGUY, and he doesn't even react when he sees a woman, which makes the audience feel more perfect. So a lot of people think that the protagonist is a person with pursuit, talent, and praiseworthy positive character. Completely ignore its extreme contempt for the right to life.
You said that if the director showed the process of killing him in detail, he hit the back of the victim's head with a blunt instrument, causing a skull fracture, causing intracranial hemorrhage and death. It truly reflects the horror and pain of the victim. In addition, it shows the details of the family breakdown of the residents who were accidentally injured and killed in the panic caused by him, so how many people will look at the protagonist positively?
Movies are art, and omission is also art. It lies in painting. I know a little about the art of omission, but when I watch movies, I like to complete the plot through imagination, so I imagine countless tragedies caused by the protagonist, so I am not calm.
