Some people say things better than me, and only write what I see and feel.

The TV broadcast of the financial crisis at the end of the film has two meanings: one is the devaluation of the housing market, and the benefits that Ah Chang worked hard to get (killing people so that no one dares to buy the house and then lowering the price) instantly vanished; the other is the issue of housing loans, She worked so hard to buy a murderer and kill her just to provide a house. Besides working for the house, she also had two part-time jobs. The financial crisis has spread again ╮( ̄▽ ̄")╭ It is difficult to guarantee that the company will lay off employees to pay for the housing loan, and it will be empty in the end.
She thought She finally won, but she still lost to Hong Kong, or the world of money she had never been in contact with. That was the fundamental thing she couldn't change.

The 11 people who died in the film seemed to be alive and enjoyable, but in fact it was because The pace of life is too fast / the pressure is too high and they choose improper ways to relieve their mood (wife, drug addiction, group P), even when they are happy, they can still see their frowns and wry smiles inadvertently - some people say this It is the symbol of contemporary Hong Kong people. Modern people are all sick. The most embarrassing thing is the fourth life - the unborn baby, even if the world is dirty, he has the right to go to this muddy water. A class, who died in order to live, such as the deceased Achang’s parents (although her father was killed by her, the cause was that 20 years of work on the construction site made him change to a lung disease and did not tell his daughter because he was afraid that he would not have money for surgery. The daughter also bought insurance for him. Achang had to save his father, but the price was the down payment of the dreamhouse that he had worked so hard to save. The father was not good at expressing his love for his daughter, and Achang always believed that the father loved his younger brother more and didn't care I even spit on myself for taking care of him. This caused Ah Chang's anger) and as Ah Chang, I built a big house with a view of the sea from the window (so that my grandfather didn't have to go to the beach early every day to sit and watch The sea) "the inspiration of the retired old sailor grandfather.
Life is for life, but life has also become the yoke of life.

Hong Kong movies have always had a habit, even romance films are not lacking in the fast pace of Hong Kong. Basically, every Hong Kong-produced film can see tenement buildings like Ah Chang's old home, which is the earliest skeleton of Hong Kong and the root of the earliest Hong Kong people. As a new generation of Hong Kong people, Achang has the same feeling of anger, not just a dream, to leave the old environment and get her own space. It is also after being beaten by her father's words of comfort, "Dad is not promising, you study hard, and when you grow up, you will I can have my own room" begins. Once a person uses his life to connect an idea, he himself has become the slave of this idea. The change in Achang's expression in the last scene of the film also represents a side meaning: the shackles that have been broken off are put back on again, and the slaves of one day will never be free.

    A psychopathic paranoid murderer who appears weak and peaceful under the materialized social pressure of money. The motive for the crime is always hidden, the two-line narrative structure is concise and neat, the climax of the murder process is full of fun, and the atmosphere is soft and delicate. Make full use of various contrast effects to create dramatic effects. Best performance by Peng Haoxiang so far.
