I don't know how many times I've watched it, but I've rewatched it again recently, and I just love this show! A lot of people don't understand and don't want to work hard to understand, do their homework, and give one or two stars casually. I really think you can watch those brain-saving popcorn movies, and those who are willing to use their brains can listen to me nagging a few words. .

1. Regarding the relationship between the offline universe and the real universe: The film said that the offline universe will appear when the time and space are unstable, and the real universe should be suspended at this time, and everyone temporarily falls into the offline universe. In order to protect themselves, the protagonist is urged to return the holy relic (airplane engine), after the mission is successful, the offline universe disappears, everyone returns to the real world, the dead can also be resurrected, everything starts over again, most of the memory disappears, leaving only a very small part, just like we wake up and only remember Part of the meaning of the content of the dream. And Duck has all the memories, why the second point.

2. Does the male protagonist choose to die by himself: Yes! Because he has experienced all this, he has seen through life and death, and he doesn't want to grow old alone, so he chooses death, and the smile on the bed at the end is the proof, so does he have the memory of the offline world when he returns the sacred object back to reality? Of course there is! Not only is the dying grandma a living example, she is also a superhero back then. After saving the world, she not only lived well, but also wrote a book of salvation for her successor as a guide. So the conclusion is that the savior can choose not only to live, but also to live with memory. Maybe our male protagonist thinks it is more meaningful to be a lone hero who saves everyone after dying!

3. About fatalism and agnosticism: The male protagonist thinks that every step is his own active choice, but in fact, he is trapped by a rabbit. This is his fate that cannot be escaped. The fate is in the hands of God. Maybe the director is a pious Christ. Apprentice!

    A directorial debut, who was only 25 years old at the time, is definitely worthy of praise, even if he didn't have any good works afterwards. If it is the director's cut version, it should not be as difficult to understand as expected, but it is definitely not a film that can be easily read. The Mad World at the end of the film can really reflect the mood of the film, a sad story of a teenager. ps, there are countless acquaintances in the film~★★★★

    It's so hard to understand, I kind of don't understand it. After watching it for a long time, I suddenly realized that the hero is Gyllenhaal
