Today's 30 daily tweets include the movie "Deep Ocean". I won't say that it aroused my interest to watch it because there are Mr. Hai and Brother Holland (the man who turned into the sea from Thor and Spider-Man) in the starring list.
However, the human-whale battle in this film is not very good, and the anger and fierceness of the giant whale are not fully reflected, only fragmentary tail-slamming. I think the director focuses more on the struggle of human nature and the collision of moral limits, rather than the struggle between man and whale.
Not to mention at that time, people always regarded themselves as the masters of the earth, believed that they were created by God in his own shape, and should be in charge of nature and let nature submit to human beings. Even with the development of science today, human beings still place themselves above all things.
But human beings are only part of the cycle of birth, aging, illness, and death. Without food, they cannot survive. Fragile lives cannot stand the revenge of nature.
In the end, in order to survive, the consciousness of survival broke the moral bottom line in their hearts. The crew members began to eat the bones of their dead companions, and were finally rescued after being stranded for three months.
Humans are indeed the most intelligent creatures on earth, rational and emotional. Rationality is cruel, and in the face of survival, any morality, benevolence, and righteousness can be put aside first. But you can't live without that rationale.
If greed is classified as sensibility, then sensibility is more terrifying than rationality. If it weren't for one's own greed, he would not have hunted and killed under the warning of others' death, and there would not have been the pursuit of death and morality for the next 90 days. Compared with the last cannibalism, what is even more difficult to explain is the greed and blind arrogance of human beings.
After watching it, you will understand that this is by no means a simple adventure drama movie. The director wants to use cruel reality to trigger human discussion and introspection. Humans and whales are just a drop in the ocean, without conquest, only symbiosis. Destroying the harmony of nature will inevitably lead to self-destruction. Only with awe can prolong the life of the earth.
Humans are not masters, but guardians created by God to protect the earth.
