Coincidentally, I suddenly saw the English poster of "The Monster of the Han River", and it said "The Host", and I was excited. There must be some material in it - any film title that is not directly translated makes me want to exhaustion. .
Bong Joon-ho's work. I was impressed by his narrative skills in Memories of Murder. Director Bong's shooting of monsters this time, from the picture to the sound effect, can be said to be well-made, and it is quite enjoyable to watch, but at the end, I can't help but think of a joke from a few years ago, which is roughly as follows:
a Korean chatting with a Chinese .
Koreans say, we have Samsung and LG in electronics giants, but you don't.
The Chinese were speechless.
Koreans say, we have Hyundai, the auto giant, and you don't.
The Chinese were speechless.
Koreans say, we have hosted the World Cup, but you haven't.
The Chinese were speechless.
...
the Koreans finally said they were tired.
The Chinese said coldly, "You have American troops stationed there, but we don't."
Koreans are speechless.
I am deeply impressed by this joke. Every nation is bloody on the road to independence, democracy, freedom and prosperity.
The movie is also bloody, the big monster jumped out of the water, the good guy, also amphibious, chasing the pedestrians on the shore sightseeing, eating it, and also hoarding it and eating it when you are hungry.
The English title "The Host" is literally translated as "The Host". In a parasitic relationship, the host is the victim, providing nutrients and a place to live.
Man-eating monsters are the parasites of the people, and this is a natural disaster;
an indifferent government is a parasite of the people, and this is a man-made disaster.
This is not the end, the plot of the US military station makes the plot even more brutal. The Koreans in the movie became the guinea pigs of the US military and became the "Host".
Bong Dao prudently shows all kinds of cruel realities, grotesque cannibal monsters, indifferent policemen, and wise and prudent doctors who have to betray his old friends, the sinister American empire.
Bong Dao also resolutely praised the family's determination to seize the monster to rescue their daughter, the cold and strong nerve of the Korean archer, and the bravery of the little girl.
I don't know what the Korean film title means. Judging from the English film title, Westerners' democratic consciousness is higher than ours.
The translated name released in the mainland is "Monster of the Han River", isn't it just to watch a monster eat people! When a fantasy commercial blockbuster came to watch!
I remember Dou Wentao ridiculed himself in "The Three Walks of Qiang Qiang", we Chinese love to watch the lively, every year watching the tide of the Qiantang River, we will die, but every year we watch it, it is really a nation that lives and dies for the fun.
If Mr. Lu Xun knew about it, he would have to be angry and live, saying, this is actually a shocking cruel drama.
Regardless of Mr. Lu Xun's literary attainments, at the time of national crisis, he stood up, pointed out the current situation, and used the courage of his "pen" to wake up the Chinese people who had been sleeping for a hundred years. He was a good person.
Regardless of whether Feng Junhao is the banner of Korean movies, in South Korea with a per capita GDP of more than 20,000 dollars, he stood up and made a commercial movie, and he did not forget to warn the Korean nation, and he should be a good person.
