In fact, after watching it, I still don't understand why this movie has such a high rating.
1. a. Rorschach is like a captain. b. The Laughing Man and others are like corrupt and depraved crew members.
2. a. The captain imagines that there are enemies attacking his ship and crew, and even his family on land.
The captain and crew in "The Legend of the Black Cargo Ship" were attacked by the demon of the black cargo ship. The captain lived tenaciously with a will: wanting to protect his family and his beloved, and the process of survival made the captain in various fantasies, in his heart It has been determined that the family has been killed, and only wants to kill the enemy.
b. Like Rorschach, thinks that there is a hostile hidden gang targeting him and his partners.
Various actions have been carried out all the time, various efforts have been made to seek clues for the death of the joker, and he believes that justice must be done by himself. Various shots of Rorschach in the early stage of the film also portrayed him as a hero who remained unyielding and resisted and still insisted on "justice" in his heart even if the hero organization was disbanded.
3. a . The captain was already delirious and had a conversation with the dead crew. After landing on the land, he believes that the mayor and the devil are in the same camp, and that his family is a devil, and so on.
b. As Rorschach was bewildered by the enemy and repeatedly got into trouble. In the end, the pharaoh and others were believed to be the murderers.
4. a. The captain finally killed the demon and found that it was actually his family. Before he returned to his hometown, the black cargo ship did not come, and the devil did not exist. The captain finally went to the sea and boarded the non-existing black cargo ship, that is, he chose death to atone for his sins.
b. Just like Rorschach, he finally found out that the evil deeds done by the pharaoh in front of him actually had "great goodness", but he still had to uphold the justice in his heart for a few people, and finally chose death.
5. Assuming that Dr. Manhattan did not stop Rorschach and let Rorschach insist on the same behavior as the captain and insist on the justice in Zhang’s heart, will he still make the same mistake as the captain’s “beloved family” in the end (a nuclear war may trigger the world Great war, more people die)?
In the end, Rorschach found that he had become—the black cargo ship that he once hated and thought was full of evil? Like the captain who eventually went to the black cargo ship?
6. When you see this, you may think that I regard Rorschach as the murderer of the wrong family like the captain. Actually not, it's just an example, after all, Rorschach did not leave the ice and snow in the movie, and did not expose what he thought "the truth that people need to know".
The truth people really need to know? No need, a lot of times, humans are self si. I won't be angry about the millions of people who died because of the Pharaoh in the movie, (of course not counting the fact that other senior officials of the guo family may use the truth of this accident to carry out zheng governance and put pressure on the Mei country. Pressure is actually for profit. ), people will only be happy that the conflict did not break out, and that they are still alive. At least at the end of the movie, the two da countries disregarded the past and cheered for peace.
The captain thought that what he was doing was righteousness, but he was actually evil (wrong his family).
Rorschach thought that what he was doing was justice, but in fact he was evil (stopping the pharaoh, certainly not just a war between two great powers,)
Writing here, there are new ideas:
The demon of the black cargo ship is a bit like the Zheng Fu high-level executive of the Mei country, who fights when he fights, and peace when he talks about peace, which leads to various disasters (the captain's ship is destroyed),
And the captain symbolizes the fallen heroes, who are persecuted by the system and have to be controlled by the system to control their work and monitor their lives. When there is trouble, what kind of righteousness and justice are used to lure heroes to charge forward and use the heroes as tools. When you don't need a hero, just kick it away.
The captains (heroes) just insisted on the justice in their hearts and wanted to go to justice, but they didn't realize that the society is different, and people don't necessarily need heroes (there is a picture that the joker and the night owl drive you into the line, and are caught by you. Disgusted by the line), the old set is no longer applicable.
So, what should we do? Still working alone? (Captain and Rorschach went their own way and finally had a problem)
Or is it better to work for (Zheng Fu) on the (Zheng Fu's) black cargo pirate ship like the captain (the laughing craftsman) (understanding the various problems of human beings, in fact, the root cause is human beings themselves, rather than engaging in so-called kang disputes)?
Or will the heroes, through their own efforts, break the balance (controlled by Zheng Fu) (sacrificing part of the human race) to reach a new height and create a new peace?
