Movies from a human point of view

Ignoring nationality and looking at it from the perspective of human nature, I can't help but ask such questions and thoughts: What is the meaning of life? What drives each person's ultimate destiny? It seems helpless to become a tool and a victim, but everyone is choosing so clearly and without regret. Facing the threat of death, it can be the destruction of the enemy by the outbreak of fear; it can also be the redemption of self-sacrifice.

In the film, there is not only pure and beautiful, poignant and tragic love, but also selfless friendship, deep affection of the clan, and understanding and empathy among peers. And the fate of the ninja runs through the audience. He was born and died because of the times. Among the many ninjas, they did not live in the life of their own freshness, but in the identification of the role: "If you don't fight, there is no need to exist", "We are weapons, if no one If we want to use it, we have no meaning to exist at all." When the role of ninja is no longer needed in this era, their lives will also end, maybe they have never lived, since they were born, there is no individual existence, and they are integrated early in the morning. In the group, they disappeared, so they could not distinguish the boundaries between themselves and the group, and the group died when they died. And Gennosuke is the only one who wants to find the value of his own life, but facing him to find the answer has aroused the fear of all ninjas. Fighting is the value of ninja's life. This is their deep-rooted philosophy. If they are allowed to live without fighting, it is better to die. Like Tianshan who has lived for three hundred years, he has experienced the development and changes of ninja history. When he knows that peace He was so eager to die when the time came when there would be no place for ninjas. It is not so much that the times and political intrigues regard them as victims, it is better to say that their understanding and cognition of life are doomed to their final choice to die.

Let me feel: born in war, but died in peace. The pusher of this fate is the times, and it is also myself. In this group that ignores human nature, love, as Long said, "can only be realized in a dream", but the eyes used to kill, when looking at the lover, have no lethality, and only tears flow. Humanity can be suppressed, but it cannot be destroyed. The survival rule of ninjas is: useful materials. In the war-torn era, they have become tools and have the value of existence, but they are also worried by the rulers because of their useful materials, thus becoming the reason for their demise. When they are internalized as survival value, they become tools, but it is not easy to close this tool internally and transform and break through. Gennosuke uses "useless use" without using any skills. When he died in the arms of Oboro in this way, he experienced the power of this "useless use". It turns out that ninjas can also be useless. Change the inner law, life begins a new journey.

    Far better than animation. And the characters are not complete.
