There are a few details that Douyou's film review did not mention (just watching the film once, personal opinion, everyone should keep a peaceful and loving spirit to discuss, don't argue.) 1. Shuotai's birth 2. Shuotai's character change 3. Hua Yi's growth 4. Huayi's transformation 5. Shuotai's contribution to Huayi's growth was born in an orphanage, why? The film did not explain why he and several residents formed a powerful criminal gang. It's a lack, but maybe it's also the director's intention, because the movie is designed to give the audience endless imagination. Regarding the birth of Shuotai, although the film does not explicitly explain, but from the beginning, Shuotai's reaction to Hengze's alarm can be inferred, "Why do parents care so much about their children?" Combined with Shuotai's birth, everyone can infer his life experiences. What's more important here is to expose Shuotai's true heart under the tough and evil exterior. (The other fathers did not have such a sharp response) This also paved the way for Shuotai's feelings for Huayi later 2. Shuotai's character changed, why did Shuotai also see the devil? This has to be reasoned with the first question, the birth of Shuotai. Huayi's parents called the police, and the kidnappers took hostages. Later, because of the fear along the way, he grew up full of fear of monsters. So what about Shuotai? If he boldly contacted his reaction to his parents not caring about their children at the beginning of the chapter, would Shuotai have a similar experience with Hua Yi in his growing up experience, so he would have this fear, thus forming "Parents are so ignorant of their children. " outlook on life. I contacted the director again and did not explain the bad experiences of several fathers. Is it possible that Shuotai also had roles similar to several fathers of Huayi later in his growth. If this is the case, Shuotai's character change does not need to be explained too much. Despite the bad behavior of raping Enzhi, as a professional criminal gang, it is obvious that there must be another father-like role in this process. This point can also be found in the dialogue between Shuotai and Sven's father. Shuotai said to Sven's father, "You were not like this" (criminal deeds), so where did the depravity of their lives come from? Reasoning, This possibility is not without. (Several contacts, the director may not have not explained Shuotai’s birth and growth, but just changed the way, using Huayi’s growth as a bright line, Shuotai’s as a dark line, and the two as life benchmarks. This can also be set from the plot of the film. It can be seen from the above that Shuotai’s growth experience from childhood to youth is missing, and Huayi’s life experience after adulthood has stopped explaining. Such a layout just achieves Shuotai’s original intention to shape Huayi’s growth, we are all the same monsters , birth and growth are the same, and the ending is the same.) There is one detail, everyone pays attention to it, they all say that not killing the blind masseuse is Shuotai's residual human nature. This kind of statement takes Shuotai's personality too superficially. Shuotai's first action after approaching the blind man was to touch the cross on his chest. After a few seconds of footage, he asked if he really couldn't see. The cross is a testimony to the transformation of goodness and evil in his youth. To be optimistic, maybe he has faith, but his distorted character makes all his expressions of faith and love become deformed (the imprisoned Enzhi, Hua Yi's growth also so) 3. Huayi's growth was first of all because Huayi strayed into the circle of several fathers, or, that was his fate. Several fathers used the kidnap ticket to dress his tree box and named him Huayi. ok, when Sven's father talks to the police later in the film, you can know that Huayi is a tree from Indonesia. well, what are the characteristics of trees? In what kind of soil it grows, what kind of branches and leaves will bear. This should be the director's growth theory, so I dare to set a benchmark for the growth of Shuotai and Huayi. The soil where the tree grows determines the quality of the tree in the future, so the director may also use the name here to imply Huayi's future life. Born in the dark, even if you get rid of the monster in your consciousness, you still can't avoid being a monster. 4. Huayi's transformation About Huayi's transformation, most people think it started when he shot and killed his biological father, Hengze. Of course, this is a bright line, a big breakout. There is a story that takes a relatively large amount of space, that is, Hua Yi meets the fat dad who is drinking and drives the fat dad to escape the police pursuit. When facing the police's temporary investigation, without any discussion with his father, Hua Yi broke through the cordon and escaped the disaster with the help of superb driving skills. On the surface, this is the plot of Huayi and the girl in red accidentally meeting the fat father, but I prefer to think that he is the best side description of Huayi's character. When he was at the door, he did not face the cowardice and timidity of the fathers as usual, but stepped on the accelerator completely spontaneously and successfully escaped the pursuit of the police. (I don’t know what happened to you guys, I was surprised, I thought he would stop the car timidly, and the fat dad might have a funny scene with the police) This episode is completely reasonable compared to Hua Yi’s growth setting . He grew up in a family of top tigers and wolves, how could he be a weak rat. Therefore, this paragraph should be a side description of Hua Yi's hidden ambition and unruly. After understanding this angle, then his subsequent behavior towards his fathers is completely reasonable, because he is a tree that grows in dark soil. Shooting Henze was just a passive explosion of his hidden character. He had this ability, but from 1998 to 2012, he was only 14 years old, and his self-righteous kindness temporarily covered his evil nature. 5. Shuotai's contribution to Huayi's growth process is Shuotai turning Huayi into a monster? Of course it wasn't Shuotai, he was the one with the most special and deep feelings for Huayi among the fathers. I don't think there is any objection to this. So why did he force him to give up everything as a teenager and become a murderer even more vicious than his fathers? This still goes back to Shuotai's growth, growing up in an orphanage, coupled with unknown experiences in childhood and adolescence, Shuotai's inner feelings about the lack of his father's role have been explained at the beginning. When he learned that Hua Yi saw monsters just like him when he was young, his heart must have been extremely complicated. And copied his experience of successfully overcoming monsters into Huayi's growth. Turn yourself into a monster, and the monster will disappear. More importantly, Shuotai's lack of a father's role in his growth made him firmly put himself in the role of Huayi's first father. This incident can be seen when the five fathers discuss Huayi's disposal. When the cold father pointed a gun at the box containing the child, he strongly declared "I am the master of this matter", and the implication is also, I am the first person responsible for the child. His dedication to Hua Yi also received Hua Yi's response. When Hua Yi faced him, he knew that he was afraid and trusting in his eyes. Therefore, in Huayi's growth, he always regarded himself as a father's mentality. As a father, he knows the devil for his son, knows the fear in growing up, and helps him grow up, which is logical. He regards Hua Yi as his younger self, and uses his deformed love for Hua Yi to make up for the lack of his father's role in his growth. Even when Huayi pointed a gun at him in the end, he still protected Huayi in his own way. He let Huayi's gun choose between the police and himself. Unfortunately, Huayi's cowardice when facing the person he trusted, feared and depended on the most was exposed. He couldn't be as decisive as when he killed several other fathers. Shuotai shot, let alone the police, because he did not have the courage to completely give up his self-expected mainstream personality. And Shuotai, a man who is already strong enough in his heart, just like what he said, he only cares about Huayi. Indeed, Huayi is his own youth. Therefore, he could once again protect Hua Yi, without hesitation, he fired several shots at the policeman who violated his private property. Here is another detail. Huayi kept pointing a gun at Shuotai, but Shuotai clearly had a gun, but he let Huayi shoot at his abdomen and legs until the police shot Huayi, Shuotai did not protect him. Take out your weapons. When Hua Yi finally shot Shuotai, he also contributed the only tears in the whole film, his eyes were cold and dark. 6. Whether it is ancient Chinese Confucianism or ancient Greek mythology, father-killing has unimaginable and extremely severe punishments for cruel father-killing. Shuotai killed Hengze, who was similar to a priest, and got rid of the fear of monsters, but still did not complete the redemption of faith and self. Hua Yi killed his biological father and adoptive father. After seeing some critics, he developed a fresh mind and became a musician and painter. I don't know what the director would think when he saw it. A grown tree, if the soil is replaced, will only die. Therefore, where Hua Yi's life will be after that, the Bible's clear rules of killing fathers are very clear. ps: In the end, Jin Yunshi Oppa, ca lang hei you! ca lang hei you!
