The deeper the love, the more the hatred, the crazier the revenge

This is one of the movies I don’t want to watch a second time after watching it. The killing is too straightforward and the subject is too depressing and desperate. Although the process of "Old Boy" was also depressing, after all, the ending did not let the girl know the true identity of Wu Daxiu, which was considered merciful. But what about this one? All dead, without a trace of hope, I bite the bullet and watched it.
Although the film also has some deep meanings, such as the helpless despair of the little people under the economic depression and the involuntary tragic fate, I think the most impressive is the process of transition from love to hate. The deeper the love, the more intense the hatred, and the revenge. The crazier he was, completely beyond the scope of normal revenge, and the horror made the scalp numb. This perverted revenge is exactly the same as "Old Boy". Shen Hejun's love for his sister led him to sell kidneys to kidnap crimes, which became the primer for all the killings. In the end, he brutally killed the organ dealers. His ending was death or prison, and he had no choice. If Shen Hejun’s killing is a bit sympathetic, then Song Kanghao has changed from a pure victim to a crazy killer. Even though he is eager to love a woman, I still feel that in the end he is more than guilty. Because he has degenerated from a man into a vengeful beast. If he wants revenge, it will be enough to kill Shen Hejun directly, but killing Pei Douna and torturing and dismembering Shen Hejun will make my sympathy for him disappear. I only hope that he will be killed soon.
The director is indeed powerful, and the warmth of a few places just reflects the cruelty and unpredictability of fate. The warm relationship after the kidnapping of the little girl (especially the scene of Shen Hejun watching TV with the little girl before she learned that her sister committed suicide), Song Kanghao’s illusion with her daughter and Shin Hejun’s holding hands with his girlfriend’s corpse in the elevator, it’s so heart-shattering and beautiful. At the same time, it is cruelly unbearable to watch. It reflects the depth of love and hatred even if this is the superficial theme.
The performances of Song Kanghao and Shen Hejun are really amazing, their eyes, facial expressions and body language are superb, showing the characters' hearts vividly and vividly. I really admire them.
Park Chan Wook is so cruel! !
Love can make people go to heaven or hell. I wish to go to heaven more and go to hell less.
Life is great! It's good to be alive!
Amen!
