I found a fatal flaw in Source Code.

Parallel worlds, entering brain cells, and residual memory are not new things, but "Source Code" uses them together, even if it is novel, but the problem is that compared with "Inception" and "The Matrix", the script has a fatal flaw. loopholes are not resolved. So not perfect!

The fatal flaw is:

In the real world the bomber didn't die, nor did everyone near the station where the bomber got off, just the people on the train and the train opposite (and possibly people near the explosion).

Here comes the problem. Although the laboratory has collected the brain memories of all the dead people, it is impossible for the bomb detonator, nor the people near the station where the detonator got off the bus. (They are not dead yet) .

That is to say, the world created by the brain waves of the hundreds of dead people is actually a very small space, limited to the memories of the hundreds of people who died, and beyond the scope, it should be blank.

So it's impossible for "Sean" to jump off the train and see the bomb detonating car and the license plate, because no one in this memory car is on board, this memory is only in the brain memory of the bomb detonator who got off and the people near that station. Yes, the problem is that they are not dead!

The conclusion is: to restore the crime scene through brain wave memory, and then enter the search for clues, this idea is feasible, but it is impossible to create a parallel space, because the amount of information is not enough (only a few hundred people's memory is unable to create another international). It can only create a relatively closed space, beyond this space is blank.

So if "Sean" jumps off the train in the movie and the train drives away, then the picture should suddenly turn white, and "Sean" stands in a world of nothingness, with nothing out of him. Because there is no information to support this part.

The core and most important part of the whole movie is: "Sean" jumped off the train, then watched the bomber get on the car, then saw the license plate, and saw the part of the bomb inside the car. Without this part, the movie can't end.

It's a pity that this part is the biggest loophole in the whole movie! The biggest bug (why has been said above)

I don't know if I've made it clear, but think about it with your brains, is this the truth?

In fact, there are a lot of unreasonable places in it when you think about it carefully...

"Source Code" is worth watching, but it belongs to entertainment and entertainment. Don't go into it, it's still far from the classics. . .
