It's been about four years since I watched this movie for the first time. At that time, the young and ignorant had only hypocritical and naive views such as "We must cherish life". Last year, a friend told me that we should watch the chainsaw together, one piece a day, and exchange views after reading it. I watched the chainsaw for the fourth time.
The first one is undoubtedly very exciting. Even I think it is the most exciting of the seven (of course I think the end of the seventh is also very good). Let me talk about the details that I think I have noticed.
1 The old man lay on the ground and finished the whole show. The position of his feet changed several times. I was not bored enough to count how many times he changed. So, is it the flaw that the director deliberately sold to the audience suggests that the old man is not dead, or is he simply forgetting the position of his feet?
2 Gunshot wounds on the shoulder of the old man. There is a circular hole in the back. This is a similar example I have seen in Crime Scene Investigation. A gunshot wound with this detail will appear to be extra real. In short, I admired my friends for a long time.
3 Can I say that I watched it several times before noticing that at the beginning Adam dropped the key with the water in the bathtub?
4 The director said that in addition to the timepiece on the wall, the two protagonists' faces gradually pale. The confined space, except for the watch on the wall, can know the time, completely cut off from the outside world, strange recordings, and conversations with the sneaky Adam, step by step let him fall into despair and madness, and then received a phone call from his wife and daughter to give the last Ge Deng's explosion paved the way for everything. Here the emotion of the audience also exploded moderately. Everything is so reasonable.
It’s been a long time, and there are still a lot of things I can’t remember. Here are some thoughts on John Krammer's personal behavior.
His starting point is that you are wasting your life. You are obviously so healthy, unlike me who is extremely ill, but you take a great time to go to the cockroach, the dog, the male, the female, and the prostitute. If you don't push you to the brink of death, you won't know that life is precious. Indeed, his behavior saved Gordon. However, is he really qualified to judge these people on behalf of God? Although he didn't take the initiative to kill anyone, but through extreme harm to himself or others in order to save his life, the meaning of life will be more vivid? I forgot that there are some people who have survived in the next few parts. They are all sluggish in the face of everyone. There is only a hypocrite who pretends to have withstood the "test" and talks about his "encounter" in a vigorous spirit and sighs with emotion. He was born again. The survival of the flesh ≠ the rebirth of the spirit. In the eyes of the so-called "lucky ones," we can't see a little bit of their hope for life. What is the difference from the past is that the fire of their lives is getting darker and darker. To say that his starting point is a little bit of goodwill, his disciples are purely frenzied. Amanda's self-righteousness killed herself. Holfman eventually evolved into an out-and-out murderer, this was not the original intention of the jigsaw, but it had nothing to do with him. So what's the point of him doing all this? Every subsequent movie seems to be overthrowing his original intention step by step. This is good. At least it means that the screenwriter's attitude is not anti-human and anti-society. This is much better than "Reaper is coming".
Finally confessed Wen Ziren.
