I don't understand what this movie is trying to say. But all kinds of violence and blood on the screen will definitely stimulate your nerves deeply, making you feel the violent factor deep in your blood to madness. A typical three-segment structure, Trasmission I&II&III is not absolutely separated or flashed back, the three paragraphs are actually basically in chronological order, the film's intention to divide it into three paragraphs may just make the audience more aware of what the movie wants to express. s things. In addition to violence, the film also fully expresses the usual dark humor in violent aesthetics, jealous of her husband's actions under the extreme distorted vision, and all kinds of violent and distorted pictures, which can be described as breathtaking.

In my opinion, what the film expresses is very simple. It is nothing more than escaping from distortion and abnormality, and bravely pursuing rationality and truth. There are signals everywhere in the world. These are all tricks and deceptions. Maybe it was these, but the various bloody images had a bigger impact on me.

The Signal quotes

  • Lewis Denton: You don't know what you're saying.

    Ben: No, you don't know what you're saying. That TV got in your brain and has distorted your perception.

    Lewis Denton: I'm not crazy like those others.

    Ben: No man, you're much worse off, because you don't even realize what's happening to you. You don't even know. Your wife left you, alone, tied to a chair, helpless so the world can take your life and the savages can feast on your bloody remains.

  • Ben: Listen to me. The car, the one that's wrecked, the one's that outside. The girl inside of it... where did she go?

    Clark: I told you already!

    Ben: Not me, that wasn't me. We've got to find her.

    Clark: I don't know. I don't know. Maybe he knows.
