The film begins with an FM broadcast by the hostess: traffic conditions, the president's itinerary, and tedious daily greetings.
All the words are clichés, every day is a boring day of shit, all the rules, all the steps are deeply boring, because people are not born in such a "cage", but have to live in such a world.
We need something that "stimulates" our instincts.
Movies, music, jokes, cigarettes, alcohol, drugs, and even everything about sex.
So that we can get rid of those boredom, loneliness and pain that cannot be eradicated.
In a consumerist culture, people are just providing what consumers need.
On the other hand, the cause of the incident was the boy who made the bomb.
If you are in deep trouble, the world you see is dark and unfair.
Anger leads to impulsiveness, weakness leads to self-pity, and ignorance leads to arrogance.
The teenager went wrong and he transformed himself from a hopeful student into a criminal everyone hunted. But is the legal way effective? Does anyone care until their life is threatened.
Blood is always sprinkled on the ground, and we can live better because we are so forgetful and know how to be cruel.
And no one seems to be at fault. The boy wants to blow up the bridge just to apologize and compensate; the actor gets the scoop to push the boat and let himself return to a high position; even the police chief's fierce statement, how can a country be afraid of terror? The surrender of the elements is the prestige of the country. It is impossible for anyone in this position to do so. There must be someone below who has to be the victim. I just didn’t expect that he would take the first step. The Rashomon of all appearances.
The film's many plot conflicts and the transition of scenes and shots make the film's tension vividly displayed. From the terrorists wanting to blow up the bridge, to the fact that he wants to apply to see the president and ask him to apologize; the interaction between everyone makes it too late to think about what will happen in the next moment.
At first, the male protagonist thought that the explosive news of this explosion was a turning point in his life, and he could get out of the predicament by grasping this opportunity. But he is not clean, or unclean soil cannot produce clean people. The only kind character in the film is the dedicated and dedicated ex-wife of the male anchor.
Remember what the TV station chief Che said to him?
That's our destiny, to get up, you have to do these dirty things.
And when his own life is in the hands of terrorists, and his future is in the hands of the upper echelons;
when his wife is in deep trouble, he is powerless;
when he abandons his colleagues and is betrayed and abandoned by others, he has nowhere to go. , the only thing left is the imprisoned disaster;
when he is deceived and perfunctory by government personnel again and again;
when he finally thinks about catching terrorists as a compromise with this society When he gave up his conscience and stepped on his own heart;
when all his scheming and efforts, all his hopes and prospects in life turned into bubbles.
In the end, he has become an abandoned pawn.
His wife is dead, his future is ruined, his youth is lost, his fate is desperate.
He no longer has any meaning to live, from chasing hope until hope is extinguished by reality a little bit, under all the exclusion and suppression, the only way is to die.
Those two crisp gunshots shattered all unrealistic fantasies.
The death of a young man symbolizes the final beauty and shattering of innocence of human nature.
On the shattered TV screen, the invisible president is arrogantly reciting a declaration of justice and victory against "terrorism".
In despair, he pressed the blast button.
The public sentiment has been greatly vented.
There is no terrorism, there are only oppressed people, indifferent people, and high-walled systems and doctrines.
Because human nature is selfishness, insatiable greed, and ignorance of danger, very few people can realize and tame this.
Only from the ruins of the old world can the new world be rebuilt.
Countless human histories repeat such a truth.
But do you just think blow up a Capitol and everything will be fine?
No, no, people who think that way are really naive.
The system is still there, everything will continue, and each of us is part of the system.
In this film, Ha Jung Woo's acting skills are outstanding, and it reflects the changes of the male protagonist's different moods, his demeanor, eyes, gestures, language, and even every breath, which is similar to a hearty one-man show. . The scale used by the supporting characters to set off the plot and atmosphere is also just right and refined.
But is this film just to vent the public's accusations of injustice? This film involves the media's control of public opinion, the organization's jurisdiction over the system and the daily life of the public, and the descriptions of
the public's psychological pain in "Death to Stupidity" and "The Crowd", etc...
reflection.
In retrospect, if it was possible, if the father, a migrant worker, received a pension and an apology after the accident, his son would not be so extreme and angry. A son who can design such an explosive layout must be able to make due contributions to society. (It is almost impossible for one person to complete all the layouts, calculations and operations, and it may be miniaturized as one person for dramatic effect) However, he has long been abandoned by "this world", and for several years, no one has cared about his living conditions , the seeds of hatred have long been planted, just waiting to take root and sprout.
When can we change to become a humanized system instead of letting the system control us. Because this is the foundation of a civilized society, not a "jungle world" where one can eat people and step on people, only blood and survival.
No one is innocent, so how can everything not soil his hands or his heart.
Every one of us has our share of sins in this world.
I am all guilty, and only God can forgive me.
