Telling stories of human nature with sci-fi gimmicks

I watched "Ring Messenger" today, and I didn't think it was as difficult to understand as everyone said. Maybe at the beginning, I really didn't know what to say, and I couldn't even understand what "looper" was doing and what kind of story it had even after reading the subtitles. However, when the male protagonist himself falls into the pursuit of his future self and looks for the "Rain Caller", it is actually understandable. In fact, you can completely ignore the time travel emphasized in the plot. Personally, I think that it is completely the sweat medicine given by the screenwriter to the audience. Only the hero said at the end, "I saw a mother who would rather die for her child, and a man can kill for his lover." Then the hero committed suicide. To put it bluntly, it is a story about using high technology to tell human nature.

    In fact, what this movie wants to express is: If there is no motherly love, children will learn badly.

    Not only is the plot not perfect, but there are serious bugs, and even the director did not explain the fact that Jon shot Old Willie for the second time. This movie belongs to only one creative point, but it cannot be extended into a world view, which makes it difficult to justify it. Moreover, it has become a problem of the education of mutants.
