First of all, I want to praise this theme. It’s really a weird and whimsical rule. When I first saw it, I immediately thought of the Malthusian population theory: the method of increasing the mortality rate of the population through factors such as war diseases to maintain a balance between the population and the means of life. Malthus believed that people increase by geometric rate when there is no obstacle, and the means of living increase only by arithmetic progression. I think the screenwriter of the movie must have been familiar with Malthus's theory of population before thinking of such an idea, and this place is more creative , that is, on this day, everyone can commit crimes arbitrarily, so it seems that the hatred and pressure in people's hearts are released, and within 12 hours, there will be revenge and revenge. It is guaranteed within 364 days. The seemingly seamless plan on the surface will continue to breed the maliciousness in people's hearts. Therefore, jealousy, hatred, and extremeness have not disappeared or released, but they have grown higher and higher in people's hearts until they break the boundaries of reason. .
Many people will complain that the little boy in this movie turned on his own security system and let the black man in. This is the most criticized by everyone. After watching the movie, I will also think so, and even think that the little boy did the harm. My own father died, but when we think about it, every one of us who thinks like this has actually fallen into this rule. It is true that in this environment, self-protection is the most important thing. Only the youngest boy can make such a decision, it is not necessarily kind, maybe it is simply unable to ignore a life's cry for help. So in the end, my father decided to resist and defend the family, and even die for it, all willingly. Because he made the decision that a man is also a father, just like that mother, she could also shoot all the malicious neighbors in front of her children, but she gave up, in the time of danger, they found the right direction. If she kills her neighbors at this moment, the seeds of killing will be sown in the minds of the two children, and it will be her two children who will appear outside wearing masks and wielding long knives next year.
In fact, I personally think that the first part is not inferior to the second part, and even the class position has existed for a long time. The poor cannot get the protection they deserve, and there is no gun for self-defense. The rich desperately buy security systems and guns, and even companies that sell security systems are very popular. are also depicted. The writers describe a relatively complete world for us.
This movie proposes such a dangerous setting for us, but in the end it can end with this, which can not help but let people breathe a sigh of relief. Humans are also animals, and animals have their own natural laws, so human beings should follow them. What about the laws of human society, or should we follow the laws of the animal kingdom? this is a problem.
