Everyone is a complex polyhedron, cowardly, cowardly, rational, crazy, greedy... They coexist but it is difficult to know themselves, they fight each other for coexistence, and under different circumstances there will eventually be one The ego stands up and plays the role
of society, and the mirror room in the final duel of the film is just like the ocean that Freud said, it reflects the vast id world under the sea, that is, the human mind, in front of the mirror. , the id of the three policemen has been exposed without a doubt.

Bin SIR has always lived in a state of superego, believing that he is the only one who is an absolute one. In his eyes, those multi-faceted people are constantly distorted, deformed
and suppressed. , the more divided he became. He required himself to live with superego standards, and finally pushed himself to the extreme of madness.

In the end, when he was holding Gao Zhiwei with his head, he said:
"Put down the gun, you can shoot. Guns are no different from other people.. I am also human, why should there be a difference?" It
comes from the same person, but in such a different tone
. This is the dialogue between the id and the superego in his personality. When the dialogue between reality
rang, he actually completed the redemption

of himself, and when he was about to die, he also saw the fall of a demon in despair, and the birth of another demon elsewhere
may not be the case. Birth, that's just another awakening of the id

. In Bin SIR's eyes, we see endless despair

. "Everyone in the world has bad things, but you don't have one. If it's true, then you have a problem."

In this world, there is no There is an absolute black-and-white monolithic existence
, and this world is, after all, a multi-faceted fuzzy world. I don’t think it can be absolutely judged as absolute evil,
but obviously the director is pessimistic.
