ever-present problem

In general, this movie has got the ideas that I want to express. It's a fairly decent film, and its completeness is okay.

Let me talk about a few points that I have benefited from: 1. Juan Xi's cancer directly shocked me. I was worried whether the usual overeating of junk food was also depleting my health. I even regretted the bowl of duck blood fans I ate just before watching the movie. Will it be one of the culprits that caused my stomach cancer in the future? It can be seen that the paranoid paranoia and suspicion of human beings are magnified when they are instantly brainwashed by fear.

2. In the scene where Kuan Xi was holding a chainsaw, in the next scene his face suddenly looked like a piece of crumpled and worn paper, which made people call this acting a genius. That scene also conveyed his swearing-to-death determination to achieve his goal very well, but unfortunately at that time, four words in Buddhism popped up in my mind: excessive attachment. We have all had those moments. In the end, in the face of fate, it is better to have Buddha nature. But this kind of attachment of human beings is not a kind of brilliance. When you look at others’ attachments, you still feel the boundless energy of human beings. It is the same when you think of self-attachment. Sometimes you don’t know whether you are worried about your health or tired, let go Perseverance is always accompanied by powerlessness, helplessness and compromise.

3. By the river where the car broke down, the technical house said to Juan Xi, I am not sitting here for the villa, but to live in isolation, away from the crowd, just concentrate on studying my code quietly, be with my wife and daughter, and You, we swim in the river together. This gentle narration made my heart suddenly soften. Are adults who have children's wishes just aliens and have to be forced to hide? The outside world seems a bit cruel, but it has become a luxury to stay away from it. This is the secret of adults. Children cannot understand it. An adult needs to acquire many social skills that he is unwilling to learn in order to survive. . Also, I have you in my wish, but I don't know that you are going to die soon, the scenery is so beautiful, the simpler the smile is, the more simple it is, the more touching people are, the more inhumane the world is, the impermanence of the world, the insignificance of human beings is so simple Wishes are silently rejected by God.

4. As for the final tech nerd who said that he wanted to destroy Wall Street after occupying Wall Street, Juan Xi was also like a devout believer who found the "free man" who conflicted with his ideas at the beginning. This is the point of the film. Although I agree with it, at the same time I also feel that the world will not change. Existence is reasonable. We must admit with grief that as long as the world exists, there will always be money-loving masters like female bosses. People who are baptized, these two types of people always exist at the same time, and existence is reasonable, and will continue to exist rationally for a long time.

The Hummingbird Project quotes

  • [first lines]

    Bryan Taylor: How long does it take to drive from Kansas to New York?

    Vincent Zaleski: Uh, two days.

    Bryan Taylor: You wanna do this in 16 milliseconds?

    Vincent Zaleski: Yeah, but round trip.

    Bryan Taylor: We're talking about a lot of money here, Vincent.

  • Vincent Zaleski: Sometimes I wonder, if all the time that was given to me was, like, like, 16 milliseconds, and I had no past memory - I had nothing carved into my mind before those 16 milliseconds. And the only thing that was left imprinted in my brain were the images and the smells and feelings of those 16 milliseconds. How do you think I would process that?

    Anton Zaleski: I don't know. Hmm. I think your life would feel exactly as long as someone who lived for 100 years.
