You can talk about feelings, but don’t insult my IQ

I watched this film under the strong recommendation of my colleagues. Ignoring the scum, the overall idea is still great. The male protagonist has a personality growth, from coldness to enthusiasm, from avoidance to responsibility, and finally leaves in sadness, smiling and falling, which is embarrassing.

But the movie still has a lot of unbearable flaws, unpleasant and unpleasant.

First, the logic does not make sense. After the zombie crisis occurred, and after initial contact with the zombie's characteristic that it was difficult to continue attacking after the newspaper was pasted through the glass door, in theory, as long as the two sides were sealed in a car, the life could be saved. However, the characters in the subsequent plots seem to be totally unaware of this law. Not only do you not close the door when you retreat, you don't close the door as soon as you get back into the car, and you are indifferent to this key to life-saving. The most ridiculous thing is that the protagonists have to join the big army. This plot is really incomprehensible to normal people. Taking the elderly, pregnant women and children through so many zombies, just to go to more carriages for one person, what is this picture? How many people are powerful? Which carriage is particularly sturdy? It is unreasonable.

Second, low intelligence. Some characters have extremely low intelligence and incomprehensible behavior. One of the climax of the film is the scene where the main character is joined by a team of 4 men. For a long time, except for the fat man who is blocking the zombies, the other three men are all smashing the door. How stupid is it to make such a deployment of manpower. How to prioritize? The door of the zombie was not closed, and it was a hundred thousand in a hurry, life and death was a matter of life and death. It was the next step if the next door could not be opened. Your house is on fire. Would you still consider what to eat for dinner? The boy also smashed the door. I thought I was going to die together? Fortunately, there is a second door. There are also many bad guys that have been mentioned in the comments. They ask the male lead to go to the back room, block bullets for them, and put themselves in a desperate situation where they may be zombies on both sides. This is not the darkness that reveals human nature, this is nakedness and showing off the mentally retarded! It is ridiculous.

Third, procrastination is slow. When the fat man died, the pregnant women kept close-ups and shed tears again and again, and the zombies were about to rush over! The fat man and the male lead were about to press the zombies under them, and the boy was still holding a stick, tangled there, and couldn't bear to smash his classmates. It makes people look really anxious! Emotions sometimes stop when they are clicked, which can be endless aftertaste. If you use too much force, it will make people embarrassed. The thin plot is overly exaggerated, and it is almost a common problem in Korean movies. After reading too much, similar paragraphs can almost be predicted, and even the length can be estimated roughly. For example, the section where the fat man sacrifices heroically, the section where the grandmother opens the door in an epiphany, well, I know you are going to be sensational, incite it, hurry up to the next paragraph, oh, it's sensational again, incite it. Take another paragraph...

Fourth, the details are rough. In the last paragraph, the zombies chased the hero and got on the train. The child goes up first, the pregnant woman goes up again, and the male lead last. This arrangement is very good, but after going up. The three of them stood so stupidly for a long time, without any intention of retreating, as if a family of three were watching some wild animals, they almost squatted down and touched the heads of the zombies to make them play. There is also a problem with the position of the three. The male protagonist is still standing behind the pregnant woman. In this crisis situation, it should be the male protagonist who immediately pushes the woman and the child behind, and protects it with his own body! These are human nature, and the director is completely blank in these details. It makes people look particularly awkward.

Finally, to make a digression, the little girl is really unpleasant. At first, I thought it was a boy. I saw "he" in a skirt and realized that it was "she". Most of the time, the girl was expressionless, with a face in debt, she spoke the words of the Virgin, and taught others how to behave in minutes. It's disgusting.

The film basically has no ideological depth. The bad guys are bad to the end, and the good guys are good to the end. Except for the highlight of the male protagonist's personality change, the others are mediocre. Cowardice and even selfishness are human nature, and it is not shameful to consider yourself at a critical moment. After changing anyone into the scene at the time, I am afraid that they would not be able to do too many noble behaviors. Only by acknowledging one's own weakness can one truly grow up. It is reckless to advance without knowing the danger, and to advance with knowing the danger is brave. This film only despises those selfish and selfish, but lacks a deeper reflection and excavation of human nature. The final theme is just to tell us to be good people. It's really too low.



--------
Supplementary complaint: Everyone mentioned the pregnant woman who was hanging up. It's really too exaggerated. Even if she walks like flying, the most incredible thing is that pregnant women with their seven or eight months old belly actually climbed onto the luggage rack, in such a narrow luggage rack. The fetus in your belly is pushed forward and crawling forward. It is difficult to climb with a big ball. Director, you can climb up and watch it yourself. South Korea is as "unbelievable" as India.
