2. Compared with "The Hunger Games", which directly leads to idol movies and youth love, "Divergent" is still better. It has more control and a sense of foundation for the social class, classification, and the setting of dissidents. Corresponding to the real human society, the setting in "Divergent" can find a direct connection, so it is not erratic. The erudites are intellectuals in the real society, but they are only allowed to retain the pragmatic part of science and the technology and craftsmanship itself, but do not encourage and allow free thinking about the humanistic society; the selfless sect is a group full of public welfare. They are mixed with the characteristics of certain religious groups that uphold asceticism and typical gongchanism; the honest school has always been the dream group of legal and moral people. They remove all kinds of complicated troubles and only uphold the pursuit of truth; the fearless school is The body-oriented group is brainless, obedient, and muscular to speak. They are tried hard to become a violent machine of the country, responsible for maintaining order; the friendly group is a hedge against the fearless group to some extent. They are friendly and gentle. There is another kind of inner strength in the world that is different from using muscles to express one's attitude.
3. The setting of "different" is actually a presentation of "complexity of human nature". In a community with a clear classification and no transgression, "uncertainty" and "mixing" themselves represent rebellion and danger. They disturb "order", but they are the most essential characteristics of human nature itself. Complexity, indescribable, fuzzy boundaries, intertwined good and evil, these are the characteristics that human nature itself cannot escape. The chemical reaction mixed with these characteristics sometimes makes human nature good, sometimes makes human nature evil, all the brilliance and dirt in human nature are caused by Born from here. When these are ordered and generalized, human nature is eliminated. Humans themselves have become walking dead. The great thing about the divergent lies in their remaining human nature that cannot be castrated.
4. The scene setting of the movie is still an "island setting". The world outside the fence is described as a dangerous and wild place. The world inside the fence is claimed to be exchanged for blood and iron. It must be cherished and obeyed. An orderly attitude maintains stability here. This is the characteristic of all totalitarian worlds. Threaten the people with fear, let fear internalize into everyone's heart, and give up all the desire to explore outwards and the possibility of changing the internal structure. So, from this perspective, every probe into the outside world in the movie is a tribute to freedom. For example, the heroine went through countless ruins when she pulled back from the ropeway to the camp on the night of her rebirth. She desperately explored everywhere; another example, At the end of the movie, they decided to drive to the end of the track and jump off the car to explore a new world...
5. The setting of some characters in the movie is still because of scruples about commercialization, which detracts from the exploration of strength. The leader of the fearless faction should be able to become a tyrant, but he was reduced to a brainless muscular man who only worshiped violence; the transformation of "four" was too abrupt, suddenly transformed from a man who was completely locked in his heart into a man Love, and when he showed tattoos to the heroine, he took the initiative to say that he didn’t want to be just one type of person. This is tantamount to confessing that he is a "different". In such an environment, it doesn’t Unrealistic; the heroine’s mother turned from a typical selfless housewife, weak and reserved, to a fearless female warrior... All this lacks the necessary explanations and transitions. Obviously, the director and the producer Fang has no intention of sculpting everyone's character and heart. He just wants to complete a commercial film that can pass and sell. In terms of revenue model, nowadays, movies are really inferior to American dramas. The latter does not have to worry about the requirements and censorship of overseas markets. There is enough space to portray characters, more audience support, and more. From these perspectives, in recent years, those excellent works with dystopian themes have appeared in American dramas rather than movies.
6. The majority of this film is wrapped in dystopian clothing. It is the same as the actual work that tells love stories. From the beginning of the encounter between the hero and the heroine, I can’t wait to jump out and claim to everyone that the two of them are going to have a story. This kind of impatient emotion has completely destroyed the rhythm of the film. The film, a kind of art that needs emotional suspense, can only scream to prove to people that they are determined to please the public. It is really helpless. It may achieve temporary commercial results, but it will eventually destroy the respect of real consumers and ultimately lose the box office.
7. In general, "Divergent" did not exceed the level of similar movies, and has never even exceeded the ambition of similar works. From the beginning, it was content to get the box office it deserves, and then it ends. From the movie itself, you can't see any heterogeneity, talent, ambition and dream of the trader team. Start mediocre and end mediocrity.
