Last year, a small-budget horror movie Happy Death Day received good reviews. The heroine was killed on her birthday, and the cycle kept repeating. Finally, the heroine finally found out the truth and gained love. And there are many such movies that repeat events in one day, such as Groundhog Day, Source Code, Edge of Tomorrow, Horror Cruises, etc., so this kind of infinite loop is not a new setting, the key It also depends on the specific plot. Happy Death Day has handed in a fairly good answer sheet. Then strike while the iron is hot, and the original version of the people came up with Happy Death Day 2 this year. This movie is the topic we want to talk about today.

At the beginning of the film, Ryan, the roommate of the heroine's boyfriend, tinkered with a new instrument, and finally had a little sign of success, but was confiscated by a teacher. At this time, Ryan received his own photo. He found that he seemed to be under surveillance. When he found a laboratory, he was killed by a person wearing a child mask.

Then he went back to that morning. When I saw this, I thought that the protagonist of this film had become Ryan. He ran to tell his roommate, the heroine's boyfriend, about this, just as the hero and heroine were about to do it. The shameful thing, after the heroine heard about it, she felt that it was impossible, because she killed all the killers at that time. After hearing this, the heroine Tree went to their laboratory with him, Seeing that machine, Xixi, only Tree knew that he had died so many times at that time, all because Ryan had created a time loop. Then they went to a safe place to seduce the killer this time. When they caught the killer this time, the result was a surprise, the real and fake Monkey King appeared.

Xixi, not only created a time loop, but also sent people to different parallel universes. Both Ryan wanted to kill each other, but the original Ryan, in desperation, turned on Xixi again, the screen turned, Tree It was back to her birthday, the day when she was going to be killed repeatedly. In her heart, 10,000 grass and mud horses galloped past, and they were about to die again.

Tree was going crazy, and directly caught Ryan to the laboratory, but before going to the laboratory, she wanted to go back to her dormitory and kill the real murderer who kept killing her in the first part, her roommate Lori, But gradually Tree realized that this was not her previous universe, she was sent to a completely different universe, and then her boyfriend Carter was with his roommate in this universe, and then openly showed affection in front of her, female The Lord's expression is sauce purple:

But in this universe, her mother is still alive, which makes her cry with joy. Just moments before Ryan starts Sisi, Tree rushes in to stop them, because she doesn't want to go back to her own universe, where her mother is still alive, although Carter is already someone else's boyfriend. Just when she was familiar with her life in this universe, she discovered that the killer who had been killing her before was also in this universe, so she hurried to the hospital to stop the criminal, but not only did she fail, but instead let the The criminal kills a cop and Lori, then falls off the building herself, and she comes back to life unsurprisingly. Then she chose family affection this time, she chose to stay in this dimension, and hoped that Ryan and the others could end this cycle, but Ryan said that they did not know the correct solution, so they could only try and make mistakes, and other people would not keep their previous memories, So let Tree remember the previous misunderstandings, then die again and again, and then enter 10,000 ways to die. Tree electrocutes himself while taking a bath, drinks medicine, jumps out of the plane without a parachute, and jumps into broken wood Then every time I have to watch Carter show affection with her roommate, it's very unpleasant, because she died too many times, she became very weak, this is also a setting of the movie, Tree is not infinite resurrection, she dies once She will be a little weaker, maybe she will really die once, because she fainted, she was sent to the hospital, um, I want to complain, there is only one hospital in the whole city. After enough trial and error, they finally found the correct solution.

Tree is a little unsure now, because after getting along, she has feelings for Carter again, and in this dimension they are not lovers, but this dimension has her mother, if it were you, how would you choose?

In the end she decided to choose Mom, but they failed again because of a virus in the computer, and while they were recoding, Carter asked her if she didn't regret the decision? In a thought-provoking conversation between them, Tree tells of another dimension where her mother died and the two of them were lovers.

Your memories, everything you've been through, makes you who you are. On the way to leave with her parents, she did find that the daughter in her mother's memory was not her, because of her mother's memory, she did not. Here she asked her mother this question, how did she know that her father was her real son, let's see how mother answered

do you understand?

At the same time, she saw in the news that Carter wanted to go to the hospital to save people, but was killed by the criminal. Seeing this, Tree finally made up her mind. She decided to follow her heart and end this time loop in Ryan, let her Suicide before staying here forever. When she woke up again, she decided to return to her own dimension, and in this dimension, she did everything she wanted to do but didn't do, apologized to her roommate, said goodbye to her mother, these few words of hers, It is also the most common mistake we make.

I hope that all the people who love each other in the world don't know how to cherish it until they lose it. I also hope that all the people who love each other can become a better version of themselves because of each other.

In the end, Tree decided to be her true self. Before going back, she went to the hospital to face her fears, killed the killer, saved her roommate, and gave her roommate green in this dimension.

So back to the original question, what made you who you are now? Do you have an answer? Do you have that person who can make you a better version of yourself?

Happy Death Day 2U quotes

  • [Tree, Ryan and Carter sit at the cafeteria. Tree explains to them everything that happened in the first dimension]

    Ryan Phan: There were two of me?

    Tree Gelbman: [impatiently] Yes! That is how this whole thing happened.

    Carter Davis: [smiles] You know, this kind of reminds me of "Back to the Future II".

    Ryan Phan: Totally. Mm-hmm.

    Carter Davis: Right?

    [Tree stares at them cluelessly]

    Carter Davis: You know, with Marty McFly?

    Ryan Phan: Doc?

    Carter Davis: The DeLorean?

    Tree Gelbman: Sorry.

    Carter Davis: [stunned] Are you serious? You've never seen "Back to the Future"?

    Tree Gelbman: No, I... how do you... wait. Oh, my God. Does this mean that...

    [Tree looks around fearfully, expecting to see another Tree]

    Tree Gelbman: ...does this mean that there are two of me?

    Ryan Phan: I highly doubt it. It's almost impossible to create a holographic universe. You're probably stuck in a quantum cyclic dimension.

    [Tree stares at Ryan cluelessly]

    Tree Gelbman: [impatiently] There's only one of you here, because the other you got knocked into a parallel dimension somewhere in the multiverse.

    Tree Gelbman: [sarcastically] Okay, Ryan. Thanks for clearing that up. That was super helpful.

    Ryan Phan: You never heard the multiverse theory?

    Tree Gelbman: Do I look like someone who knows what a multiverse is?

    Ryan Phan: Okay, look.

    [Ryan takes a napkin]

    Ryan Phan: This is our universe. Okay? Now, look.

    [Ryan folds the napkin several times]

    Ryan Phan: In theory, the universe has six dimensions. Now, if what you're saying is true...

    [Ryan drives his pen through the napkin]

    Ryan Phan: ...then maybe you woke up on the same day...

    [Ryan unfolds the napkin]

    Ryan Phan: ...but not in the same dimension. That would explain the anomalies.

    Tree Gelbman: So, how different are we talking here?

    Ryan Phan: Well, it depends...

    [Tree notices that Danielle approaches them]

    Tree Gelbman: Oh, shit. I forgot our house meeting. Danielle, I'm sorry. I just...

    Danielle Bouseman: [approaches Carter] Hey, babe.

    Carter Davis: You doing all right?

    [Tree gapes in disbelief and jealousy: Danielle and Carter kiss for a long moment]

    Danielle Bouseman: [smiles at Ryan] Hi, Ry.

    Ryan Phan: [smiles shyly] Hey, Danielle.

    [Tree is even more puzzled: in the original dimension, Danielle is snobbish and obnoxious, and wouldn't even look at people like Carter and Ryan. Tree concludes it is one of the differences between the dimensions: in the current dimension, Danielle is nice and friendly]

  • [Tree meets her father at the restaurant, to celebrate her birthday]

    Tree Gelbman: Hey, Dad.

    David Gelbman: Hey.

    Tree Gelbman: [hugs her father] Sorry I'm late.

    David Gelbman: It's okay, sweetie.

    Tree Gelbman: [sits at the table] It's just been a weird day.

    David Gelbman: Everything okay?

    Tree Gelbman: Uh, yeah. It's just... stuff, you know.

    David Gelbman: How's school?

    Tree Gelbman: Um, it's fine, Dad.

    [a waitress approaches]

    Waitress: Are you ready to order?

    David Gelbman: Not yet. We're still waiting on one more.

    Tree Gelbman: [puzzled] One more? I...

    Waitress: Okay. I'll be right back.

    [Tree cannot believe her eyes: her beloved mother Julie, who died three years ago in the original dimension, stands at the door, alive. She smiles lovingly at Tree]

    Tree Gelbman: Mom... oh, mom!

    [overwhelmed with joy, Tree rushes to her mother and hugs her lovingly, so strongly that Julie nearly falls backward]

    Julie Gelbman: [chuckles] Whoa! Hi...

    Tree Gelbman: [her eyes are filled with tears of joy] You're here. Are you really here?

    Julie Gelbman: [puzzled] Well, of course I'm here. It's our day.

    [Tree hugs her mother again. Julie and David are puzzled at Tree's strange behavior]

    Julie Gelbman: Are you okay?

    Tree Gelbman: Yeah. Yeah. Oh, God, I'm fine. I'm just... it's good to see you.
