which jesus is jesus

The two sides when there is a scene of daggers in the supermarket embody the battle between the two camps of man and god. One side held the Bible with tears in his eyes, believing that he could be redeemed by obedience; the other side piled layers of dog food beside the glass door and wrapped the glass window with tape, believing that he could survive by fighting. But this statement does not seem to be complete. The camp of people also folds their hands together and prays to the Lord with devotion. Therefore, the camp of gods represents the gods spoken by the woman holding the Bible. For a thousand readers, there are a thousand Hamlets; for a thousand believers, there are a thousand Jesus. Therefore, it can also be said that the film expresses the question of "Which Jesus is Jesus?" Is it the fatherly Father who waits for the return of the prodigal son of man, or the God who shouts, "Go and pour out the bowl of God's wrath on the ground" (Revelation: 16.1)?
The reason why the fog is created is because people try to replicate the world in which God exists. This is the pride and pride of human beings who think they are omnipotent. This is blasphemy against God. We can regard the fog as God’s punishment, but redemption. Humanity is not a confession and a bloody sacrifice. The vindicator who thought she could have a direct dialogue with God eventually fell under the bullet, and her prayers and preaching failed to take her to heaven. Because her heart is full of fear cruelty and selfishness. Especially when the soldier was stabbed by the crazy crowd, the expression on her face clearly reflected her realization that the scene was out of control and the mistake of cannibalism, but in order to maintain her leadership in the group, she even proposed to The young man throws it out. At this moment, she has been invaded by the devil.
When reading the Bible, we must also keep pace with the times. You have not seen several changes in the history of Christianity. When religious teachings conflict with social development, there will always be new interpretations. There are some Christians around, who are familiar with various chapters of the Bible, believe in the existence of God, and insist on praying and meeting regularly. But they are not loved, because these are not the most important things, whether on earth or in heaven, it is the feelings of Christ that can redeem you in the end, the most beautiful qualities of human beings: integrity, bravery, love and sacrifice.
In the end, when the group drove out of the supermarket, they were all people with these qualities who had the right to survive.
The ending of the film, which I prefer to understand as the need for the film, has to be designed to be more ironic, more intense, more dramatic.
If I were filming this ending, I would have designed it so that Billy wakes up, eyes wide open, and the camera follows Billy's gaze to the gun, against the forehead of the lady in the co-pilot (sorry, I'm really good at remembering names) Too bad), Billy was shocked, his son's cry hindered the action of pulling the trigger, little Billy opened the car door and ran into the fog, everyone in the car got out of the car to save him, shouting "Kill me, don't touch the child"! A soldier's tank with a gas mask appeared in front of billy.
In this way, it can better reflect the persistence and self-sacrifice that flashed in human beings. It is this kind of persistence and self-sacrifice that makes them qualified for survival.

    The ending is shocking. Others are hell.

    Although some of the details are unbearable for me, the depth of this film is worthy of a serious taste. The ending is too black and humorous. I knew that if he rushed to commit suicide, he would be embarrassed. Can't you wait until the most critical moment to commit suicide?
