Busan trip
After watching this movie, I have a lot of feelings, let's talk about some details that are easy to ignore
1. When the pregnant woman and the child finally arrived at the tunnel, the superiors in the army issued an order to shoot immediately if they were not sure whether they were infected. Although the soldiers did not pull the trigger because of the child's singing, what they could not know was: how many corpses were near the tunnel. It's a zombie. How many people have gone through untold hardships to reach Busan but were not rescued but were shot to death by humans? In addition, Busan has successfully resisted, why can't the child's mother's phone be connected? Was it already killed or the signal from Busan was artificially blocked? If it is the latter, although it makes people sad, it is a last resort not to let too many people know that Busan is safe. Otherwise, when a large number of people go to Busan, it is almost difficult not to get infected on the way, which will inevitably increase the difficulty of defending against zombies. , Similarly, if it is not possible to determine whether it is the source of infection, it is understandable to be executed, and the choices everywhere in this movie also make people feel real.
2. The end of the call between the male protagonist and his mother
"Xiu An is a good boy... I love her very much..."
"But she only loves her mother... I love her so much!"
Humans are not only faced with disasters such as zombies, but many things, such as emotions, are actually powerless sometimes.
3. At the end of the film, only Busan was successfully defended, which inevitably reminds people of the Korean War. South Korea and the US military were finally defeated in the Battle of Busan. The vampires in the film undoubtedly allude to the exploiting bourgeoisie, so the zombies are the bottom mob.
What is a zombie? Originally a human like you, because of the loss of work, life was difficult, and then extreme thoughts spread from ten to ten, so the six parents who did not recognize began to rebel and began to destroy. Sometimes there is no need to live a difficult life, and there are accumulated resentments to vent. A minute ago I was seriously moving bricks on the construction site, and someone shouted "patriotic" outside, so they went out in groups to smash Japanese cars driven by little white-collar workers - not to smash Kost and Toyota off-road. I ran back to my hometown, analyzed the comments on the Internet, and said seriously, "Half and half of the people who support me and those who oppose me". By the way, the root of the fear of zombies is the fear of revolution and riots of ordinary citizens who have a stable life. I think I am in the first half of the society, and tomorrow I will be smashed with red blood by the second half of the society where "people who are poorer than me are not human" - even people in the same class.
Remember North Korea's "Maximum Movement"? This mass movement-style economic struggle laid the foundation for post-war economic reconstruction and made the living standards of the North Korean people better than South Korea's until the mid-1970s. Before the mid-1970s, North Korea was superior to South Korea in terms of living standards and political It is not known how much higher the independent status of Korea is than that of South Korea. At that time, the Kim family had considerable popular support among the Koreans on the peninsula and overseas, and South Korea needed to guard against North Korea's ideological attack. "Chelima" is the economic miracle of North Korea and the superiority of "paradise on earth" A symbol of living conditions. How much like the top leader of the Northern Dynasty, Jin Changwu, who promoted the development of the plot by himself?
Train to Busan is not only a zombie transmission route alluding to the Korean War, but the whole plot reflects the Korean people's fear of General Kim. In the film, the South Korean government interprets the zombie crisis as a riot, not simply satirizing the South Korean government. Some labor movements in South Korea and The peasant movement, with its northerly color, even cites propaganda posters with a strong Korean style, is not new. First, it caused troubles through external organizations, causing social chaos, and then the People's Army went all the way south...
4. When the male protagonist is mutating, his mind is the picture of his daughter's birth.
At the beginning, the first girl who was bitten and ran on the train kept mumbling, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry... or something."
When Mr. Jin was changing, he said, Uncle, I am so afraid that you can take me home. My mother is still waiting for me at home... Maybe Mr. Kim is not talking about the present, but also recalling the past, and because no one helped him, he finally become increasingly selfish.
In the whole film, there is no other common zombie blockbuster with a noble protagonist at the beginning. Instead, the male protagonist tells the girl to think more about herself at important moments, not to care about others, not to give up her seat, and to get off at Daejeon Station. He took the girl and left the crowd to prepare the routine, so the truth for himself is everywhere, but even though Mr. Jin has his own reason for surviving - his mother, he pushes others, even those who help him, to death again and again, This is intolerable. And there are many shining points of human nature in the film, and these people are not like this at the beginning, but gradually change. Mr. Jin bit, the male protagonist's girl always thinks about everyone and the train conductor who are always reluctant to let go of every passenger but is abandoned by Mr. Jin, and the beggar who is greedy for life and finally sacrifices himself to save the pregnant woman and the child. .
In the face of disasters, human nature is unpredictable, some people will turn back to beasts because of their nature, but there must be some people who care more about their dignity as human beings. Many times, it is not the unknown, but the human heart that is scary, so the grandmother did not enter the carriage where the crowd was. So the cheerleader followed his favorite boy to the unknown without hesitation... Personally, I think this film is not only a reflection and satire of politics, but also makes people think deeply about reality and human nature...
