1. The bizarre way of killing in the third part actually echoes the time explained in the opening chapter and the words that the heroine said when she just got into the injured car. In the first part, killing and being killed is still like a normal crime; in the second part, the shadow of organized crime began to appear; in the third part, it has collapsed to the point where there are perverted murders everywhere. As Our Lady said, there is something wrong with the "spirit" of this society. Two decades of annual purges have eroded the American spirit.
2. Some people still wonder why it is already 2030, and there seems to be no trace of technological progress in popular science fiction films. Is it because of insufficient budget? My understanding is that the movie didn't need those budgets, and we can fully understand that the new Founding Fathers, who advertised themselves as saving the American economy, actually created a new system that brought this once vibrant country to a halt. Keep in mind that while the purge targets the poor and disadvantaged, a large portion of the elite may also be ostracized by dissatisfaction with the system and choose to vote with their feet to leave the country. The most likely to be the first to leave are the highly mobile scientific and technological talents, financial talents, scientific research talents, etc., and the so-called new founding fathers in the third part, that is, the only remaining political elites, are like brainwashed fanaticism. Believers, have completely lost their normal judgment. As a result, this society has no pillars below, no pillars above, and is completely hollow wood, which has long lost the possibility of continuing progress.
3. The trilogy progresses layer by layer, and maintains the consistent compact style of "plans can't keep up with changes". Unpredictability is the basic driving force for a movie to attract people to watch. The IQ and EQ of most of the characters in this part can be used just fine. The people who kill and kill are obviously trained through experience in the past 20 years, which is in line with the background of the story. The last few climaxes also paved the way. Although the scene of the black uncles killing the secret service personnel in seconds is a bit rushed, it is reasonable to "catch" for the sake of justice.
Not enough. The incomplete plot and the happy ending that everyone could have expected at the end lowered the force of the whole film.
1. Although I used the mouth of the Virgin Mary to say that the problem lies in the spirit of this society, but in the back, there is no suspense to let the heroine win the election. Anyway, all hope is pinned on an idealistic female politician. In the end, all the The voters are as majestic as the protagonists, and they can see the true face of the powerful in an instant. What's more, the movie didn't even explain how the massacre in the cathedral on that evil night was interpreted. It shouldn't be difficult for the saint's opponent to frame her. Why should voters trust a senator with a dark history of rebels?
2. In the movie, the NFFA group of people is portrayed as brutal and unscrupulous, but I think they are really one of the few absolutely upright villains. They chose to respect the laws and regulations when they had a lot of tricks to play (such as elections) and were willing to admit defeat, but on the already very dangerous annual purge night, they had to kill themselves to abolish officials' death-free gold medals, just to comply with the Constitutional assassination of a female senator (please, there are so many presidents in American history, and it has to be killed on the night of the annual purge, that's right).
3. The male protagonist who cannot die will not be said. I don't want to see him die anyway.
last of the last. The director wants to make a film about a bad government, but maybe due to national conditions and experience, he doesn't know what a real bad government is. A really bad government wouldn't have come up with the stupid idea of a medieval duel of knights like a human eradication plan. As long as the rulers are above the law, the people are prohibited from holding weapons, all ideological media are censored, and publicity and education are carried out to fool the people, so that the people can go from being powerless to resisting to forgetting to resist.
