In the first part, it was just a brief description of how a group of people escaped for their lives in a room full of killing machines, including police officers, doctors, math-savvy students, machine design experts, and autistic people. The patient also has a person who is disappointed in the world and addicted to pornography (+_+). Among these people, the only one who can escape in the end is the autistic person. The agency expert finally died of his own self-confidence, and was washed off by sulfuric acid. The police end up dying of corrupt humanity (?; that's all I can say). The student died at the hands of the police. The negative brother is unwilling to go out. The specifics are for everyone to see for themselves.
The second part is also similar, a group of people wandering in a seemingly endless space, human nature is alienated, balabala. In the end, only the blonde stepped out, only to get a shot in the back after giving the "switch".
No normal person can get out alive. So there are some mysteries left in the first two parts. Who designed this maze, why did it design it, and what did it do?
These questions seem to be answered in the third installment, "cube zero," the government (perhaps inappropriately, since the series is made in Canada, but there is a detail in the second installment) It was the colonel who committed suicide who was a "Pentagon official," which is embarrassing).
In this third part, the perspective we see is no longer limited to the people in the cube, but allows us to see the manipulators outside. They come from officials, represent state power, and carry out the national mission—putting groups of people into Rubik's cube experiments.
I have to admit that these people are all masters in computer programming and can skillfully manipulate a huge murder cube, but they never thought about why they went back and manipulated it, and the consequences after manipulation were just mechanical execution of orders. Just like dood in the film, he just followed the operating procedure to ask questions and press the button, and then after the question "Do you believe in God", choose according to yes or no. I don't think it reminds me of Weber's point that "engineers don't have souls." If the individual of social atoms has been turned into a machine that can only mechanically execute orders, I shudder to think about what we will become.
In the movie, there are two programmer supporting roles: Chucks and Owen. They may just stay verbally to render a horror, or they may be used to directly show the tension of a horror. This configuration implies an allegory of "everyone can be replaced". The person who is monitored and controlled today may be abandoned in the monitored position tomorrow. Who controls the life and death of whom? In the end, it will be discovered that in the end, there is only an unchanging system left, the iron-clad and flowing soldiers. Not by personal preference, but by a system of "justice", the source of these orders is a "sir" on the other end of the phone.
These programmer devils recently, they can try to stop the devil, but if they simply fight in their own way, I think it is too simple, because this Leviathan is forged by your own hands, and in his blood With your blood running, you know far less about him than he knows about you.
I think the Chinese translation of this movie is too good. It does not literally translate as "square" but brings in a humanistic "panic", which also shows some kind of deep-seated fear of such high-tech products.
Lin Lin always wants to clarify this idea, but it is very complicated, ╮(╯▽╰)╭.
To sum up, as the progress of modern society, we have every reason to be proud of our technology. Our cutting-edge talents are concentrated in the field of science and technology, but if all the most elite people are concentrated in technology, no one will go Ask what our technology is for, and we may one day discover that we are facing monsters that we will create with our own hands, whether it's the robots in the Terminator series or the Rubik's Cube here. These elite scientists, they not only fail to create wealth for society, but also bring deeper pain to society.
As a result, when I think back to my high school experience, I suddenly realize that I have been distorted too much. I remember when we were divided into liberal arts and sciences in high school, we were all able to study science but not literature. Why? Because it is easy to study in science, it is easy to go to university, and if you get admitted to a good university, you will have a good job. If you have a good job, you will have everything. Isn't it just "the book has its own golden house, Yan Ruyu"? Ask yourself, among our brothers and sisters who studied science, how many of you really like math, physics and chemistry? All I can say is, I really don't like it, but that doesn't mean I don't like science, I don't respect it, I just think that blindly pursuing fame and fortune in such a way will eventually destroy us Own.
