It is undeniable that "Unknown Death" is indeed suspected of plagiarism. Contrast with "Memory Fragment":
Similarities:
1. The protagonist suffers from "short-term memory loss"
2. It is all caused by his wife (fiancee) being killed and hit hard on the brain
3. Both are based on revenge
4. , Of course, one more point is also indispensable, even if it is amnesia, the male pig's feet are still very vigorous (the basis of revenge).
Differences:
1. The protagonist has different degrees of injury. The protagonist in "Unknown Death" cannot remember 15 minutes ago The thing, lives by instinct; and in "Fragments of Memory", the protagonist can remember things before his brain was injured.
2. The length of the description of the film is different. There are a lot of descriptions of love in "Unknown Death", which is redundant with revenge itself; in "Shards of Memory", there is only revenge and confusion about oneself.
3. The same is revenge. The original purpose is the same but the essential purpose is different. The existence of the protagonist in "Unknown Death" is similar to that of a vindicator who cleans up the sins of the world; revenge in "Memories" becomes the driving force of life
4. The ending is different, and the revenge in "Unknown Death" is complete Success gives people a sense of satisfaction that good people will eventually defeat bad people; and "Shards of Memory" leaves endless doubts about whether it is the end or the beginning of reincarnation.
Personal evaluation: Both films are good films. The revenge in "Unknown Death" is interspersed with beautiful love, first destroying the beautiful things and then trying to repair them, and what is left to people is the lonely back figure of the protagonist under the sunset glow. ; The protagonist’s confusion about identity recognition in "Fragments of Memory" has made a certain interpretation of the meaning of life itself. People have to do something while alive. Revenge may be the cause at the beginning, but when everything begins, the cause is no longer the cause. From revenge to survival, to the search for the value of his own existence, the protagonist is also destined to go on this road. There are only two choices except: destruction, which is endless.
Many people comment on the advantages of the two films. In fact, I think there is no comparability. All we can compare is the plot, and the height of the theme cannot be measured by a specific value. History has not been constantly being measured. Repeat? Everyone can see farther by standing on the shoulders of giants. It would be a success to say that copying can copy ideas.
