Only in desperation see life

Due to being unemployed recently, funds were tight. With the money saved by not eating meat for a week, I bought tickets for "The Revenant" (must be a true fan?), and went to the theater hungry.

In a theater with too much air-conditioning, wearing short sleeves and cropped trousers, I was in danger of being frozen to the point of being an idiot. I was stunned to finish watching it all in one second, and then I was shocked by the plot and turned into an idiot.

First of all, I want to declare that I am watching 2D (really so poor that I can only feel the plot by watching 2D?), so I can't say "Wow, the huge screen is so powerful", and the "sound effects are great". Such pretentious words (in fact, I really want to!!), you can only use the plot to make a fool of yourself.

In fact, the whole film can be summed up as "the story of a white father who hunts down a murderer for his Indian son." The theme of the story is very clear, which is revenge.

From the beginning, everyone can easily think of Xiao Li's unique acceptance speech at the Oscars this year related to environmental protection, but I found some problems about racism. Back then, they didn't just hunt animals and then skin them and sell them! The Indians they killed are too numerous to count, and they are almost extinct! This reminds me of everyone's protest against this year's Oscar nominations being white, ah, let's go too far, bring it back!

In fact, I have seen the trailer. Under the circumstance that I have already made up my mind, when I saw Xiao Li with a shaggy beard, my reaction was not that big, but when I thought about it I just watched his video two days ago. "The Aviator", I feel bad all over again. In the beautiful year of the year, now he has become a sloppy uncle. For the little golden man, Xiao Li really fought hard.

Take the bear encounter first, it's just thrilling, the bear's roar echoes throughout the theater, and I'm so scared that I'm going to pee! ! (It is suggested here, don’t drink too much beverages before watching, it’s better to empty the bladder in advance, I’m suffocating kidney stones??) In such a situation where the combat power is obviously unequal, the powerful effect of the protagonist’s halo is played out here. A normal person has been fucked like that by a bear for a few times, and he has long gone to drink and chat with Jesus to pick up girls. Xiao Li can even kill him with a knife. It must be said that his protagonist's halo is powerful.

Looking at the injuries on his body, I cried out in my heart more than once, "Fortunately, it's winter, if it's summer, how will you live!?"

The ugliness of human nature is often the most prominent when people are in trouble. Everyone is for themselves, watching Fitz kill his only relative, Xiao Li can't wait to eat Tom's expression is absolutely amazing, I want to ask, does anyone make memes, remember Aite and I share! !

I like the words murmured by his son very much, "A tree with deep roots cannot be blown by the wind. As long as there is a breath left, it must continue to fight.

" Du Nima has been abolished like that, and how can he still survive, I have to admire the power of hatred, this is really infinite! Of course, there is also the power of the director, not letting you die, no matter how you can survive, even if it is lingering!

And just when I thought, well, it's already miserable enough, and it shouldn't be miserable any more, the screenwriter once again shattered my three views and put the worse ones behind. Seeing Xiao Li struggling in the water, unable to save himself along the water, I almost cried! For the little golden man, easy! ! !

I really want to say, just watching Xiao Lizi, like Master Bei, finally capped the top of the food chain, and when I ate everything I could eat, my heart collapsed! I have always felt that in this world, only Wuli Beiye can stand at the top of the food chain and be proud of the world, and Dugu seeks to lose, but I never imagined that Xiao Li, who likes long legs, has also climbed to the top, and I feel that my three views are once again rejected terrified.

When I saw the best cinematography for this movie, I didn't have any deep feelings, but when the long shot of Xiao Li walking on the snowfield appeared, I instantly re-watched "Assassin Nie Yinniang", she When I stood on the mountain and looked down at the shot (the one below), I felt goosebumps all over my body instantly. Beauty, it's really too beautiful, who has that frozen picture, let me know! !

Time and time again you thought it couldn't be worse! After that, the screenwriter and director slapped you in the face again and again, and finally caught up with the murderer.

When Fitzgerald said, "You've only got revenge, but so what, your son is dead. He's never coming back."

I suddenly felt the urge to cry.

This reminds me of the book "The Cross of Nothingness" by the Great God of Higashino, "If your family's life is cruelly taken away, how would you like to deal with the prisoner?" Is it to kill to stop the killing, or to forgive it. The male protagonist made a very good choice and left it to God. After all, "the sword of revenge is in God's hands."

Although the whole film is a drama, it is not boring at all, which is very difficult for Nima to do (" Assassin Nie Yinniang "I fell asleep watching it!), the story is still easy to understand (let's take Nie Yinniang as an example, I only understood it after checking the information later _(:з"∠)_ Please forgive my ignorance !), it's even harder, the point is, everyone's acting skills are so good, I'm going to cry!

Especially with one of my favorites - Domhnall Gleeson, since he played Bill Weasley in Harry Potter (I didn't recognize him in "The Earth" =͟͟͞͞-_-|| ), I really like him, and after watching his "Time and Space Lover" and "Ex Machina", I love him even more.

    I have written a long time ago and summarized the plot without telling the bottom line: Wilderness, Wild Hunter: Wilderness, Hunter; Wilderness Hunting, People. (over)

The Revenant quotes

  • John Fitzgerald: You all right there kid? Your head in the right place?

    Bridger: I guess... I can't help thinking about whether we did the right...

    John Fitzgerald: No! Ain't our place to wonder. The good Lord got us on a road whether we choose it or not.

    John Fitzgerald: My pop, he weren't a religious man, you know? If you couldn't grow it, kill it, or eat it, he just plain old didn't believe in it, that was it. And this one time he head on up the old Saba hills... San Saba hills? He joined a couple Texas Ranger buddies of his to hunt you know? pretty routine, he done it like a hundred times before, should have been a three-day kill but, on the second day, it all went fucked. Somehow that night he lost his buddies, and to top it off, them Comanches went and took the horses so, he was starving and delirious... and he crawls up into this mott, this... this group of trees out in the middle of nowhere just sticking up in this ocean of scrub and he found religion. At that moment he told me... he found God. And it turns out that God... He's a squirrel. Yea. A big, old meaty one. "I found God" he used to say. "And while sitting there and basking in the glory and sublimity of mercy... I shot and ate that son of a bitch".

    John Fitzgerald: Yeah. You might want to close your eyes kid.
