Ian Stone's death

The story of The Deaths of Ian Stone is, to put it bluntly, quite ordinary. Basically, it is a superpower who is inspired to fight against his own kind for love. There are many such stories, and I can't think of specific examples for a while, probably because similar films are slightly mediocre. The recent "Twilight" is about the same theme.

The Deaths of Ian Stone is a bit brighter than other similar movies whose names I can't even remember.

The film has an eerie atmosphere from the very beginning. Well, in fact, those weird atmospheres, such as rainy nights, swinging swings, and unmanned train crossings, are still a bit cliché.

But from the first time Ian Stone was killed, it was really weird.

Every time he was killed, he immediately woke up from a completely different life. The death in front was like a dream, but also like a parallel universe.

This worldview setting is very interesting. Audiences will be caught trying to find out what his setup really is.

But unfortunately, as the explanation became clearer, the whole story gradually became less interesting.

In a good direction, this story gives a complete explanation. From a bad perspective, this explanation is really mediocre.

Speaking of which, the first half and the second half of this movie, or in other words, the world view setting and the battle story behind it are like two movies that you don't want to do.

This irrelevant setting also brings some problems to the logic of the film. For example, the abilities of this group of monsters are so strong that the world seems to be just an illusion under control, but they actually rely on intimidating people to obtain energy. It's like crossing from "The Matrix" to "Grimm's Fairy Tales" all at once.

In addition, the cinematography of the film is not bad, and the opening sequence of playing ice hockey is very visually striking.

Also, the villain girl is very beautiful.

There is a motto in the movie that seems to be the inspiration for the movie. "Dream as if you'll live forever. Live as if you'll die today." It's interesting to write, more interesting than the movie itself.

The Deaths of Ian Stone quotes

  • Ian Stone: You look awful.

    Gray: I could say the same about you.

  • Gray: We feed on their fear.

    Ian Stone: So what are you, like vampires?

    Gray: It sustains us, but we corrupted ourselves. We began feeding on human pain as well, searching for it everywhere. Almost like an addiction. And the fear one of them experiences the moment before a violent death is most potent. Our drug of choice. Once you've tasted it, you never want to stop. You need it more and more, and when you can't find it you have to kill for it. That's what turned us from parasites into predators. You just keeping hunting, waiting to feed again.

    Ian Stone: So how many of them are there?

    Gray: I don't know anymore.

    Ian Stone: Why the hell are these things coming after me?

    Gray: You hurt them. You did something to them and they won't let you remember it until they can work out how to bring you back into the fold... or destroy you.
