Die for what?

Maude 2022-04-19 09:01:35

The weakness of human nature is always manifested in the face of danger.
In the face of danger and fear, Mrs. Cormody moved out of the final judgment and regarded himself as God's chosen one (in fact, it was probably because she did not fit the taste of the big locust, so she escaped the disaster), and "inspired" a large number of " disciples” to ease the fear in his heart. After all, the more people who agree with you, the safer you feel. How would she feel if she hadn't been killed later, seeing that it wasn't God who came to save her but what she called "sinners"? Will she be schizophrenic because God betrayed her? If God really exists, then God is really innocent.
That group of "disciples" were probably the least aware of what they were doing. They can only know what they see with their own eyes, and they easily believe Mrs. Cormody's instigation, and blame everything on the poor young soldier, saying that if they kill, they will kill, and they even rob a little boy as a "sacrifice" ! After the death of Mrs. Cormody, David and his party went out. They were leaderless and had no one to be the imaginary enemy. Maybe a new round of infighting would arise. It was not until the army came to rescue them that they found that it was a battle from beginning to end. farce.
David and his party are the few sober people in the supermarket. They face up to their inner fears and find ways to help each other to tide over the difficulties. But what they sacrificed in exchange was always the growing distrust of others, which made them ultimately powerless and had to find a way to survive. But they didn't persist until the last moment, probably because they lost hope because of the tragic scene along the way. After all, the power of the unknown is too powerful.
David, who survived, was actually very unfortunate. He suffered a mental disaster for no reason, lost his wife, and killed his son with his own hands. In the end, he had to face a more painful survival than death alone. His last sentence "They are dead, for what?" aroused people's infinite thinking.
Why do human beings like to do these things to torment themselves?
First you blind yourself, then you doubt yourself, then kill yourself, and finally, save yourself. So, those who died, 'They are dead for what? '

    The belated hope is even more desperate. A conclusion that makes the male protagonist desperate makes people think more. What is true faith, God, personal heroism or love? In fact, it is a very good movie, let me lose one point is the end. Without this ending, there is no need to deliberately deliberate a lot of things, but now the army will end in a hurry as soon as daylight arrives. It feels that this ending is too abrupt and unnatural.

    Because of such an ironic ending, five stars must be given. Human despair is not in foreign objects, but often comes from human beings. The despair after despair is the most terrible!
