Tranquility, a philosophical masterpiece with abnormal narrative

"Tranquility" has been read. This is not a narrative in the conventional sense. If the plot wants to express too much, it does express the fusion of events and emotions at multiple levels. On the one hand, this film plays normally on the first level of the story, but When entering the in-depth level and the turning point of the plot, the whole film immediately entered a high degree of confusion, so that we could no longer understand the positioning relationship and relationship of the characters in the play. If this is not an experiment with an unconventional narrative structure, then this play is really inexplicable. . But if we watch and think over and over again, the confusion of the play's relational logic can be a revelation. What kind of space does our consciousness stay in? If we can understand that everything is just a data signal, and experience the world from the perspective of ourselves, then The scattered memory center of this story is just like the perspective of Chinese landscape painting, with my heart as my heart and my desire as my desire. All time and space exist only in the viewer's cognitive angle, level, ability and desire. Accordingly, such an unconventional story is an opportunity to know the truth.

    "The Old Man and the Sea"-style passion inspirational film → ex-husband and ex-wife partner murdering the current husband's family dog ​​blood ethics drama → logically chaotic and blunt soft science fiction film → juvenile crime law popularization column (in the end, there is a bit of anti-war meaning). Hong Kong, let Uncle Matthew sell less meat for such a bad plot!

    A score of 5.0 is really a bit rotten out of the sky, and a god-like dead lineup can't save this movie. At first I thought it was an inspirational film, but the picture turned into a murder ethic, then a suspense film, then a soft science fiction film, and finally a legal education film. It's a pot of simmering, and there's an AI version of Truman's world. What's the core? Teaching people to kill? Why do children always care about the pictures of their kinky mother and other men rolling in bed when playing games? I'm so fucking obsessed with this movie, the plot is messy, and the genre has turned on the random mode.
