Let history and human nature be three-dimensional leisurely

Frankly, writing a review for this film is a real embarrassment. When I'm about to write, I feel like I don't know where to start. It's like there is a hot and hot three-dimensional space in your hand, you can't find an entry point by fiddling left and right. That's it. What's more, almost different people can comprehend things in different fields, including history, art, religion, cryptography, physics, sociology, and so on. But obviously, in order to make this film review as concise and clear as possible, I had to choose such an entry angle that better shows the film's structure, program, and content - mathematics, so that this three-dimensional world can be more clearly revealed.

There is no doubt that this three-dimensional structure of the film is a very amazing project. Although we are no strangers to movies, we, who have watched countless movies since childhood, may still be amazed at such a complex, mysterious, and unbelievable art. There have been many movies since ancient times, but it seems that there has never been a movie that can achieve such exquisite and complex three-dimensional frames and content stitching, and almost even a sentence of dialogue in it is three-dimensional.

Of course, three-dimensional is more than just shallow dialogue. First, in terms of a horizontal social dimension, the human nature presented in this film is three-dimensional: whether it is Bishop, Syrah, Lee, or Sophie. The three-dimensional structure of human nature itself is a very natural thing, but it is still an extremely laborious project to present so many such complex three-dimensional structures in just two hours. What's more, the hierarchy of the structure itself is almost unparalleled: the first layer is the conflict between the characters, such as the bishop's cruel ambition and Sophie's innocence, Lee's religious fanaticism and Robert's calm tolerance; The second layer is the opposition of the inner contradictions and conflicts accumulated by the characters themselves. In this regard, Syrah is a very successful character. In this role, all the contradictions-light and darkness, good and evil, love and Hate seems so pure, natural, and charming. His whole person is spotless. He almost even seems to be so simple in killing and violence, which makes people feel so much pain. The second is the bishop with complex behavior, his act of kindness to save Syrah and the cruelty and hypocrisy he showed later, all cast a mysterious and complicated color on him, and the scientist Lee's knowledge and religious ambitions, so Fei's ordinary purity and her mysterious noble identity... When this one piece is perfectly intertwined, almost even the gods will marvel at this complex and dense procedure; the third layer is the contradiction of the fields in which these characters live: such as the religious field conflict with science. The contradiction in the field of religion is that, on the one hand, religion is supposed to popularize people's hearts and save people from misery and suffering, but on the other hand, religion sometimes has to be accompanied by bloody suppression, brutal massacre, and hypocritical and mythical whitewashing. . The contradiction in the field of science is even more prominent, because in addition to the outstanding genius of Li, there is another more outstanding character in the film - Newton, which reinforces this contradiction: science itself becomes a double-edged sword. For other purposes, it deviates from the track of pure science, and even tries to destroy religion, control people's hearts, and turmoil society. The only people left are endless madness, hysterical roars, ugliness and evil.

At the same time, from a vertical perspective, the history to be displayed in the film is also three-dimensional. History is full of sacredness, and it is also full of filth. Because human desires in history have a certain kind of contradiction that is clearer and more perceptible, and this contradiction is almost inevitable, pure, transparent, and unobstructed, enough to drive people crazy and unable to extricate themselves. Since Leonardo da Vinci, the mystery of this history has been revealed its mysterious veil, which is reflected in the backside of Leonardo da Vinci's amazing painting "The Last Supper", which is the internal contradiction of religion (or human nature) in history. The indisputable interpretation of the contradiction), this is the origin of the "Holy Grail" of the female body. However, people will discover next that once people want to be covered up by the light of religion and history is distorted by the power of the world, almost even the secrets have to be preserved in a different way - this is the helplessness of human nature and the helplessness of religion , but also the helplessness of history. But it is because of this helplessness that the whole world has a thrilling beauty, and once this beauty unfolds, it cannot be stopped.

The three-dimensional sense permeates the entire film, and even at the end, it is out of control, allowing the police detective in the supporting role, Sophie's "grandfather", the personal servant beside Li... all show their own in this three-dimensional space. An extremely rich, sensible, and contradictory face. These complex transformations and nudity of human nature, between scenes of bloody, mysterious and brutal massacres, are increasingly filled with a splendid and bright light of human nature. Although the light of human nature is sometimes dim, it does not mean complete darkness. , The light of human nature is always so cold and complex, touching life and death, and living the years.

Life is always full of changing passions, full of sublime and humble, wisdom and mystery. On the scroll of history, there are only those events that can only be conjectured but not verified. We do not know since when riots and cruelty were slowly and silently born in history, but since then, pain has taken root like a savage seed, involuntarily. Those kind and innocent people, those whose hands are stained with blood and cannot be freed, those active machines, those rigid resistance, those desperate rebellions, those pale truths... dissolve in the long river of history, along with various consciousnesses Changes in form, ups and downs together. But in the end, how much can be clearly distinguished from right and wrong? How many questions can you answer? When the loneliness settles and the wound scabs over, one will only suspect the madness and guidance of the devil, tarnish the purity of one's body into dirt, and deduce it into the unbearable pain in this life.

When the last scene fell, the starry sky was boundless and the earth was silent. Under the ground, the goddess is holy and peaceful. Then people suddenly know that all the hustle and bustle in history and the conflict in human nature have come to the end, but they still return to a kind of eternal tranquility. Since then, let the years change, and the world will flow.
