The Tiger: Good Causes and Bad Effects

After watching the whole film, I was amazed at the protagonist's free-moving acting, the narrative technique of inserting and falling, and the vivid CG special effects. This is indeed a good movie to watch in 2015.

But after closing the computer, there is always a thought in my mind that can't go away. What is this movie really saying?

Is it the environmental protection of man and nature? There is indeed a part of hunting and protection in the film. The drugstore owner also said that if Shan Jun died, the foxes and wolves in the mountain would be rampant. But we have all seen "Wolf Totem". The prairie wolves in it all know the truth of coexisting in harmony with nature. Don't the sticky forest wolves (forgive me, I think of Garnett when I talk about the jungle wolves) don't understand this truth? What's more, even if Shanjun died, the hunters would turn to wolves and foxes, and it is estimated that their numbers would not increase much. At the end of the film, Shan Jun is probably dead, so the film does not just want to express the environmental protection of man and nature.

Is it patriotism, resistance to oppression? The Korean tiger in the film is indeed very brave. One tiger can beat a team of devils. He is familiar with all kinds of GANK skills, such as flashing, sprinting, ruthless, war roaring. It is something that a wild animal should do instinctively. No matter you are a stick hunter or a Japanese devil, as long as you invade my territory, I will call you back and forth. And looking back at the North Korean hunter in the film, he was arrogant and did not mean to resist at all. In the second half, when I saw that when the tiger was fighting against the Japanese artillery team, the scar hunter exaggerated the beauty of the tiger to kill more, I was in a trance and thought, They are going to take advantage of the chaos to kill the Japanese chief and then eliminate all the devils. If the movie plays like this, then there is no doubt that this is a patriotic movie. However, all of this did not happen. On the contrary, when the Scar Hunter was weak by the tiger, Prepare to shoot it with your own hands. Sure enough, Dahu lived up to expectations. Under the control of many people, he completed the counter-kill and escaped smoothly. This is such a classic LOL teaching that it seems to have nothing to do with patriotism.

So is it love, or is it great love? In the film, the Mande hunter killed Dahu's mother, and Dahu was about to kill Mande's wife (I read this passage twice carefully, the tiger that killed Mande's wife was indeed a one-eyed tiger), Mande's The son injured Dahu, and Dahu also wanted to hurt Mande's son, but Mande saved Dahu after all, and Dahu also gave Mande a whole corpse of his son. In fact, Dahu didn't want to let Mande. The meaning of the death of his son. This can be said to be love, but it is not great love.

The film hopes to tell us through such a story: the law of cause and effect that good is rewarded with good, and evil is rewarded with evil exists objectively. This is not prescribed or created by the Buddha. The Buddha just revealed it. Believe it or not, we all live by the law of cause and effect. Each of us should be responsible for our own good and evil deeds. If the evil deeds are done by yourself, then you will receive painful results!

In nature and society, various phenomena are universally linked, causal links are universal and inevitable, and no phenomenon is not caused by a certain cause; and when the cause and all necessary conditions exist, the result will be must arise.

Cause and effect run through everything, for example, the present is the "effect" of the past, and at the same time it is the "cause" of the future. The karma can change at any time, and the result can also change at any time; what people often call "destiny" is actually the karma.

So I think "Big Tiger" should be a movie with the same profound and complex meaning as "Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter and Another Spring". We can't use simple environmental protection and patriotism to evaluate him, nor can we use vague love to summarize him.
