The first film of The Killing Array in Different Dimension is a philosophical film, which has a much deeper meaning than the second one and the third one.

The main plot of the movie is like this: some people are trapped in the Rubik's Cube. In each small room (small hexahedron) of the Rubik's Cube, each side has a door leading to different rooms. But don't think that these rooms are safe. If a daredevil enters a room with a trap, he will definitely die. At the beginning of the story, a person entered the laser trap room and was instantly cut into pieces. . And these dangerous rooms are equipped with different types of sensors and traps.
But in such a Rubik’s Cube, people actually have a chance to meet. No, five lucky guys met one piece, three men and two women, and entered the same safe room. Among these people was: a young man with no ambitions. A construction engineer, I call him "ordinary"; a tall and mighty middle-aged policeman, I call him "power"; a female college student majoring in mathematics, I call her "wisdom"; a middle-aged female doctor, I call She is "love"; there is also a little old man who is a jailbreak master and a thief, I call him "experience".
In this way, ordinaryness, power, wisdom, love, and experience come together, but their mentality is not uniform, some people fight separately, and some people panic, depression, and fear.
At this time, power united everyone together, introduced themselves to each other, calmed everyone down, and worked together to find a way out. The experienced old man has his own method of judging the trap room---the "violent test method". He tied his boots with shoelaces and threw them into the opposite room. If the shoes are okay, people enter again. This method is really smart, but unfortunately it can’t. Measure the mechanism of each room, because a few rooms have special sensors.
Everyone feels that if you follow the old man to throw his shoes to explore the way, there must be hope of going out, but when everyone is rejoicing, the experience fell into a trap. His shoes did not detect the chemical sensor in a room, and where did he jump? At the moment of the room, I realized that I was finished. When everyone dragged the experience back, the poor experience was only half of the head left.
Without experience, everyone is in trouble, and power encourages wisdom to think of ways. Because Wisdom has discovered that in every door that opens to another room, there are three numbers. What do these numbers mean? Everyone does not understand. Wisdom lived up to her expectations. She found that among the six sets of numbers in the six doors, only one set did not contain prime numbers. So I guessed that the door pointed to by this non-prime number channel was safe, and then tested it with the shoe test method, and it was really good. Everyone is very pleased with the discovery of wisdom, and follow the wisdom of it.
These people didn't know how long they walked, and came to a room. All the channel numbers did not meet the safety conditions. Should they go back the same way? At this time, Ping Fan discovered that the door on the roof had not been seen, so he opened the door on the roof. A teenager fell from the sky and almost broke Wisdom’s neck. The teenager was trembling, nagging, and nervous. A mentally handicapped appearance. But this person actually played a big role later, so I call him "talent".
Since talent came to the team, power has been very unhappy, because there is an extra "fool" in the team who needs to be taken care of. In addition, there is a person who disgusts power even more, who is ordinary. Power thinks: wisdom can open the way, love can Take care of the talent, and Ordinary doesn't do anything along the way, and Ordinary is always so depressed and untrustworthy.
This resentment of power erupted into anger because of one incident. When everyone walked to a room, wisdom found the channel containing prime numbers, and the power jumped in without throwing their shoes. As a result, there was a trap in that room, which burned the power's arms. Fortunately, everyone rescued in time, and the power got its life back. The wise method failed for the first time. Power vented all disappointment and pain on the ordinary. He abused the ordinary for doing nothing and was timid and incompetent. Ordinary was still enduring it at first, but later he couldn't bear it, so he quarreled with power. Pingfan pointed out that power actually did nothing like him. The argument became fierce, and the ordinary missed that the Rubik's Cube would never go out. After everyone’s questioning, Ordinary admitted: “I’m one of the people who created this Rubik’s Cube, and I’m responsible for designing the outermost layer.” Aixin suddenly became crazy when she heard these words, she suspected it was the government or a conspirator. Created the Rubik's Cube and used living people for experimentation and fun. But Pingfan calmly denied the point of love. He said: "This is just an unfinished and forgotten project. Everyone is a part of this project." Pingfan pointed out that this is a designer and user. The space of purpose and direction, which represents human development, is in fact self-destructive. Aixin understands the viewpoint of ordinary. She pointed out that ordinary is the only person who voluntarily stays in the Rubik's Cube. The reason why he appears here is to repent. Since Ordinary appeared in the face of repentance, and he was so "heinous", power can finally take the opportunity to flatten the ordinary to show his power.
Wisdom is reflecting on why her "prime number path finding method" will fail. Through ordinary narration, Wisdom understands that this space has a "boundary". She guessed that each group of numbers in the passage actually represents the "coordinates of the room to go to". ", so all the numbers have meaning. The discovery of wisdom has determined the way forward for everyone. Power did not want to be the first dangerous "leader". He forced Ordinary to be the first to explore the way, so everyone set out again.
In one room, everyone stopped. According to the calculation of wisdom, as long as they pass through another room, everyone can reach the boundary of the Rubik's Cube. However, this room has "traps" and is a voice-activated sensor. Except for the sound of opening and closing the door, anything subtle The sound of the trap will trigger the trap weapon. Everyone decided to venture through this room, so the nagging talent became a burden, and the power suggested abandoning the talent. Aixin resolutely opposed, and Wisdom abstained from voting. In the end, due to ordinary support, this "team" still brought talent. The talent did not disappoint the love and the ordinary. Everyone passed this trap room quietly. When the last power was about to pass successfully, the talent couldn't restrain the joy. He made a sound, which triggered the organ, and the power was poor. A little bit lost.
The second quarrel appeared. The power to save life in the thrills grabbed the talent and beat it up. Love bravely stood up to protect the talent and shouted "Let go of this innocent child". There was a volcanic eruption between love and power. Power uses vicious language to insult and slander love, while love ruthlessly exposes power. Power slaps love, but love is firm and unyielding. She uses human language to make power yield to shame and calm down.
When everyone opened the door on the border of the Rubik's Cube, what they saw was not the warm sunlight, but the endless darkness. The cold wind hit the outside, and it was bottomless. The opposite seemed to be a dark wall. Everyone needs to test if they can swing to the opposite side, and love volunteers. Everyone took off the coat and trousers, twisted them into a rope, put the love outside, and let her try if she could swing to the other side. The result was unsuccessful. Love then climbed up and wanted to return. When she was about to climb to the "window", the power closest to her released her hand, and Love fell into the abyss.
Power attributed the death of love to a mistake. In grief, everyone also had doubts about power. When power ordered Wisdom to find a way out again, Wisdom said that he was exhausted. So the four people decided to sleep and rest.
Power kidnapped Wisdom while everyone was asleep, carried Wisdom into the next room, and then persuaded Wisdom to abandon the other two and run away with him. Wisdom does not follow. At this time, the other two arrived, and Ping Fan began to fight with power. Ordinary failed. He was beaten with a bruised nose and swollen face, but the power still didn't let him go, and he threw him into another room like a shoe. There were no traps in the room where Ordinary was thrown into it. Ordinary laughed. Others thought Ordinary laughed very strangely, so they rushed to look at it. They found a corpse with only half of the experience. It turned out that everyone worked hard and returned to the original place. In addition to getting hunger and exhaustion, he also lost love. Wisdom yelled to Power: "You understand now, you lunatic did nothing except murder." Ordinary laughed, power paralyzed on the ground, completely desperate, stupid talent touched Power’s head, like Comfort him, this scene is too funny.
When other people were desperate, the ordinary, who had always been depressed, came interested. He asked Wisdom: "How could it be possible to go back to the original room after walking for so long?" Wisdom was attracted by this question, and she was together with the ordinary. Realize: These rooms move over time! That is to say, as long as you go back to the room where everyone first met, it is possible to find the exit. Wisdom calculated that there is only a short time left to connect to the exit from that room. Power comes again, and he forces wisdom to lead the way, but Wisdom smiled and said that the numbers in those channels do not contain prime numbers to indicate safety, but must be powers of prime numbers to be safe. The amount of calculation has already exceeded Human computing power. Power is not reconciled. He continues to persecute wisdom. Ordinary can’t prevent power from violent. Wisdom asks power in a hurry. What is the factor of a certain long integer. Power cannot be calculated. At this moment, talent gave the correct answer. .
Everyone was pleasantly surprised. It turned out that the talent has more powerful abilities than computers, so everyone seized the time to move on. Only this time, wisdom and talent are responsible for finding the path, ordinary people are used as shoes to explore the way, power is at the end, and three people are escorted. Suddenly, at the junction of the two rooms, Ordinary held back his power and shouted for wisdom to run away. Afterwards, Ping Fan relied on quick response to shake off his power and catch up with wisdom and talent. Power is in hot pursuit.
In the end, Ordinary, Wisdom, and Talent came to the original room and found an exit, but Ordinary refused to go out. Wisdom asked why, and Ordinary said: "Outside is infinite ignorant humanity." Wisdom smiled and said: "I can adapt." But at this moment, power caught up and he brutally killed Wisdom. Pingfan encouraged the talent to escape, and the talent smiled and walked out of the maze. Power also wanted to rush out of the labyrinth, but ordinary desperately held the power's legs, and power only crawled out of the body. At this time, the room began to move. Under the effect of time, the power was concealed in two by the wall. On the dark wall opposite the abyss where love fell, a bloodstain of power was left.
And Ordinary, even though he has never expressed it, he has fallen in love with wisdom deeply. He lay beside Wisdom's corpse and died silently. . .

This philosophical movie reminds me of Chinese philosophy of the Five Elements. I guess that there must be Chinese or someone who is proficient in Chinese culture among the screenwriters of the movie.
Isn't it? From the perspective of the Five Elements philosophy, talent is like gold, wisdom is like wood, love is like water, power is like fire, and ordinary is like earth.
Jin Kemu: The talent almost broke Wisdom's neck as soon as he came out.
Mu Ketu: Wisdom finally got ordinary love and conquered ordinary.
Turks: Ordinary conquered love. Before coming down into the abyss to explore the way, Aixin said to Pingfan: "It's an honor to know you. You opened my eyes." I guess Aixin will only say goodbye to him when he falls in love with Pinghua.
Water overcomes fire: Love is the greatest force to restrain power, because only love can successfully stop power from persecuting others.
Huokejin: Power always changes to kill talent.

Jin Shengshui: The talent has mobilized the courage to love against power more than once.
Aquatic Wood: The death of love mobilizes the conscience of wisdom and the courage to condemn power.
Wood makes fire: Wisdom mobilizes the desire for power, and even power kidnaps wisdom.
Fire is born: The insult of power mobilizes the courage of ordinary confrontation, and makes ordinary become positive.
Native gold: Ordinary encouragement and help eventually led to the talent getting out of the Rubik's Cube.

Well, that's all about philosophy movies, and for the rest of philosophy, just study the Yin and Yang and the Five Elements. Ha ha.
