For Chinese audiences, they may be able to appreciate the film from a more objective perspective. Of course, there will be some lack of background knowledge, so I suggest that you understand theology and theology before watching it. Knowledge about Angel Wars (Audience: Do you think anyone is as boring as you -_-!).. The
approximate storyline is this: Angel Rocky was born in God's anger, and he acts on sinful people according to God's will Slaughter. But another guard angel, Batby, thought this was too cruel, so he persuaded Rocky to give up his job. So the two of them were exiled by God from heaven to the human world, becoming fallen angels. Batby learned of St Miga Le Church will hold an atonement ceremony, and all those who walk through the church gate will be forgiven for all their sins. So these two fallen angels set up their own small abacus: cut off their angel wings and become human , And then walk through the gate to be forgiven of their sins, and then find a way to be killed by others, their souls will immediately ascend to heaven, so that they can return to heaven. Archangel Metatron got this According to the news, he found the last goddess, the abortion doctor Bethany, and asked her to find a way to stop the two fallen angels, because if the two of them return to heaven, it will prove that God is wrong. However, the existence of the entire world is based on Under the absolute premise of "God is right and perfect". Once God is proved wrong, everything will be reversed, black and white will be reversed, and all existence will disappear, including the entire human society.
In fact, I think the best part of this film Of course it's the spoof lines and characters. For example:
(Catholics who oppose abortion gather outside the protagonist's abortion clinic to protest)
Liz: Oh my God, can't you persuade these people? Anyway, you are also a Catholic. .
Bei Sani: there is no doubt that this will make them hate you I hate even more severe than at least you have an excuse, because you are a Jew.
Liz: This excuse was already used when we killed Jesus Christ.
(The Archangel Metatron said that he spoke to humans on behalf of God, which is the legendary "THE VOICE". The heroine asked God Why not speak by yourself.)
Archangel: Because the voice of God cannot be tolerated psychologically or physically. Hearing the voice of God, the human mind will collapse and the heart will explode--we have sacrificed before we know this. I have five Adams.
Okay, I admit that I started watching this movie for AR. The Archangel Metatron played by AR in this film is indeed very cute (the sound is good, there is no doubt that it is for God Speaking!). When he first appeared on the stage, he talked to the heroine for a long time, and had to show his wings to verify his identity. The heroine barely figured out who he was. It is estimated that this archangel is second only to God. I was so angry that the wings that had been opened were also frustrated, and he said angrily: "You humans! Tell someone you are Metatron, and people will only look at you blankly, but when it comes to Houston Everything in the movie has become a theologian again!". There are also those two lovely prophets, one cherishes the words as gold, and the other is full of bullshit and thinks "hey" with the last goddess all day. After being rejected countless times, I still didn’t give up and asked: "If the world is destroyed in 5 minutes, will you have sex with me?" The heroine reluctantly said, "Maybe." So in the end they felt powerless to stop the fall. When the angel returned to heaven, this old man was facing the immense danger of humankind’s imminent destruction. When others were in a hurry, he could calmly pick up socks, take off his shoes, and untie the belt while saying to the heroine: “Don’t waste time, you are not. Will you have sex with me when the world is about to die?"
Let me talk about the two male protagonists. The fallen angel Rocky is sometimes cruel and sometimes weak, which makes me a little confused. After all, he also follows God, because he only kills guilty people, but is dragged into the water by Bartby. Bartby At the beginning, he thought that the act of God asking Loki to cleanse a certain race of humans was too cruel, but later after a conversation with Bethany, he changed his mind. He thought that God was too kind to humans. Human beings will be forgiven for sins, and they even have the right to decide whether to believe in God, but angels can only serve God, and if they make a mistake, they will be exiled forever. He thinks this is unfair (in fact, I think so, ha- _-!). This idea is basically Lucifer’s idea of pulling, and it is also the scourge that caused the angel war. How can I say, it is a more ambitious idea? I don’t know how to word it. Then Butterby began to slaughter As for human beings, as for why he suddenly repented when he saw God, I really didn't understand it, and can only explain it as: God is really great-__-!! I really like the conversation between Batby and Bethany on the train. At this time, Bartby began a crucial transformation. Talking with a human being made him feel that he was abandoned by God. He did not understand why God is so tolerant to humans but so harsh to angels. Bart thinking about this. The expression is focused and sad.
The central content of this film is "God is not to be questioned", so although there are many settings full of spoof and subversiveness, such as: God is a woman and a black person (believe this is enough Let most Catholics collapse); God’s last goddess turned out to be a female doctor in an abortion hospital; it was not only 12 disciples, in fact, there was a thirteenth, but because he was black, he was not mentioned in the Bible; Miu Goddess is a striptease girl; the archangel Metatron likes to drink and two sentences with "FUCK" in three sentences... etc. But after all these are just a little humor. I believe The director has expressed his meaning in the film many times. Through the mouth of the bishop who strives for innovation, he said: "God allows the existence of a sense of humor." Oral book: "In fact, God is very humorous and interesting." Therefore, although the film is full of these seemingly "great rebellious" arguments, the general tone of the film is actually the belief in God. Just put on the coat of rebellion.
