————Spoiler dividing line————
Compared with "Inception" and "Shutter Island", the structure of this film is better clarified and less controversial.
One layer of reality + two layers of fantasy
reality: baby doll (that blond ugly loli)'s mother died of illness, and the priest and stepfather killed his younger sister in order to steal the family property. Baby doll came late to save her sister, and failed to kill her stepfather with heart. Instead, she was sent to a mental hospital by a rogue stepfather who killed her sister by mistake because of the death of her mother. The father makes a money deal with the second-in-command of the psychiatric hospital, demanding that the baby doll be removed from the front lobe of the brain to keep her mouth shut so that her evil deeds will never be exposed. When baby doll walked into the hospital, she noticed four things: the hospital map, the lighter, the cook's knife, and the key on the second-hand neck's neck. She subconsciously thought that this was the way for her to escape from the hospital.
The first fantasy: the hospital becomes a nightclub, the female psychiatrist becomes the mother-san who trains baby dolls and other girls to dance and seduce customers, and the second in command becomes a pimp and nightclub tyrant. The baby doll offered to steal the hospital map, lighter, knife and key to escape from the nightclub, and the other sisters agreed to assist her.
The second fantasy: when the baby doll dances, it fantasizes about entering various video game fantasy worlds [the first act against the long-nosed Japanese samurai, the second act with the steam-activated German army (Menggan?), the third act to kill the orcs and cut the fire dragon ( lord of the rings , and what is needed to gain freedom (at the same time, knowing that only four things are not enough, and one is not yet known); the task of the second act is to steal the map of the German army; the task of the third act is to take out the crystal stone from the dragon's neck and hit the stone to make fire; The name of the bomb on the train in Act 4 is Razor. It's a pity that the fourth mission failed, and the first fantasy also lost 3 of the 4 companions in a chain reaction. In the end, baby doll uses herself as bait to let sweet bean escape. The old man who is the publisher and guide of the mission in the second rush is what the heroine said in her inner monologue at the beginning: There are guardian angels in people's hearts, but they will appear in different poses, maybe a little girl, maybe an uncle... In
reality The second-in-command always regards these mentally ill girls as her own playthings. The heroine realizes that the only way to be free is to undergo surgery. Once a person loses his memory, he will no longer be the "she" he used to be. In other words, her The soul is set free in another way, and the dirty deeds of the second-in-command are exposed.
The narration at the end echoes the first act in the second fantasy: you've got all the weapons, now fight! (probably so, no precise words). Even if there are no hot and cold weapons, as long as there are thoughts, we can fight!
Finally, let’s talk about the actors, the girls are all familiar: the protagonist baby doll looks like Angela Chang, who once starred in the little girl in white in "Ghost Ship"; sweet bean is the female number one of "Candy", an Australian beauty, long Although she is stronger, she looks like another Australian beauty Nic; Rocket is much more amazing than in "Terrorist Ruins"; Blondy is still the sweet girl in "High School Musical"; Amber is the Asian face that Hollywood likes; Even the Latin-accented female teacher Carla Gugino is an old acquaintance in "Pirates" and "The Adventures of Wizard Mountain".
PS The translated name of the imported version is really embarrassing "Pretty Girl" ||| Has the translator watched too many Japanese love action movies? ?
