The poor often have only a few days or even hours left, so they must work hard to "seek a living". The road is full of corpses that fell to the ground and died after running out of time. Hollywood's rigorous plot structure and exciting fight scenes naturally add to the watchability of the movie. The characters in the film are all young and beautiful. Not to mention the old man, not to mention the amazing combination of the male lead (Justin) and the female lead (Amanda Saffrey). Criticism is rich against pride. The class struggle of the sub-cultural revolution was re-enacted.
The male protagonist who was born in a slum, unexpectedly gained a hundred years of life due to a kind act of saving people, and has since become rich. The New Greenwich area in the film symbolizes a wealthy area with endless life, a distant country that the poor can never reach, and you must pass through layers of levels to reduce your lifespan to have a chance.
The rich can of course waste what seems to be an inexhaustible amount of time, drinking, drinking, having fun, and gambling - immortality.
Typical Hollywood character oppositions, "poor and rich", "stingy and sympathy", "evil and good". Justin got the privilege of entering the rich area. He embraced the imagination of "A BETTER WORLD", hoping to do his best to fight for the last breath of life for the poor.
People in high places often like to cite Darwin's theory of evolution as a rationalized excuse for the rampant capitalism and the gap between the rich and the poor: the ruthless mentality of the disadvantaged groups that deserve to be damned will eventually lead to their own destruction. Monopoly of all wealth, time and power. Disregard the equal distribution, disregard the living space of others. For the poor whose living space is oppressed and unable to turn over, all they beg for is a little sympathy and pity.
"Did you witness the death of the people around you with your own eyes, will you die?" Justin asked excitedly in the film.
"Close your eyes and turn around as if you didn't see it." This is the proud and unfeeling attitude of people when they are at a high place.
Yes! Then if there is a role change, will the beneficiary still be so righteous and stern?
The reason why most human beings can't appreciate the pain of others is that they have lived too good and too happy, and of course rationalize all the excuses for greed.
There should be a mentality of natural selection and the law of the jungle. This is not a kind of equality. Some people are born low, shouldn't they even have a chance to turn over? Then how to create it?
I really like the protagonist in the film, driving a 100-ton truck, angrily crashing into the time bank where the loan interest rate has been deliberately raised, and the runaway rich daughter happily looting the time register in it in order to be generous of are distributed to insolvent residents and repaid with no interest! It feels like a fight for justice! In order to fight injustice!
I feel that when capitalism reaches its peak, it is bound to gradually collapse and disintegrate, causing greedy human beings to reconsider the entire value distribution system, and the world may become a better place.
