The rhythm of this movie is handled very well, especially when the epidemic is sweeping the world. This theme touches the hearts of ordinary people and is a bonus subject.
The falling leaves, the warm sunset, the wind blowing from the underground, delicious pizza, sweet lollipops, and talking to the barber and unfamiliar people...
The director spreads these ordinary things, which are as gentle as water and delicate as silk, in front of your eyes, and your soul is inexplicably smashed into thousands of pieces, lying down on the "God" "played" by the director. In such an ordinary life, the subway steps and sofa floor handed over, I am willing to be an ordinary person.
This is indeed quite clever. The director subtly awakens every viewer who has been devastated by life to the point of numbness for a long time. As an ordinary person, the breath that forgot to take a breath when he is busy with life is in your heart at this moment. It's time for you to change your breath, it's time to stop your tired steps, it's time to look up at the blue sky and white clouds.
These "enjoyments" that are so cheap that they don't need to pay any price at all make every adult as simple and soft as returning to infancy.
It turns out that we are all moved to tears when we have no desires and no desires.
It's like experiencing a self-meditating in front of the big screen.
but!
When there is no goal, no dream, and no great inspiration at that moment, what is the meaning of the soul in the world to beat and experience?
I know that this movie will hit a lot of people's hearts, especially those who have been unhappy or struggled to survive from serious illness and death, will feel the same way.
But I believe that each body in the three-dimensional space will live a different life under the possession of different souls. Some people need this movie to convince themselves to let go of their obsessions.
But I have my own thoughts on the meaning that the soul gave me to come to this world.
Although I gave four stars, if possible, I would like to give three and a half stars , because this movie did not give me more surprises and soul collisions that I had been waiting for for a long time. I believe that the core of my instinct to dislike this movie stems from the expression of my soul.
Of course, the completion of the story is very high, the script creation is also slanted, and the set values are not in the old way, these are all worthy of encouragement. However, it's actually not that amazing. Is not it?
There are also those higher-dimensional spaces shown in the film, or the world mixed between life and death, which still lacks imagination.
Because every time I meditate, the space I see in front of me is far more wonderful than what is shown in the movie.
There are also some obvious bugs in the film, such as sneaking out of the hospital, but not paying for a taxi; the patient who just woke up from the coma disappeared, and the hospital didn’t look for it; the mother didn’t know that her son had an accident, and there was no accident. The person notified the person related to the male protagonist; the soul has no sense of touch, taste, smell, and the pizza picked up falls again, but it can bring the leaves on the earth back to the space between life and death?
What was the identity of the heroine before, why did she die, and why she did not have any pursuits during her lifetime, none of which is explained in the film. Maybe the heroine represents us who are mediocre in front of thousands of cameras. I don't remember the next life, and I don't know why, but I'm embarrassed to live this life.
Hungry, tired, feeling the love of family members, feeling the air, sunshine and music... These directors want to express the feelings of the human body.
However, as a spirit higher than the body, the soul will not be hungry or tired, and it does not need to feel everything in the three-dimensional space. The only meaning of its attachment to the body is to realize its value—dreams, goals, selflessness, the flame of inspiration that is where the soul really is.
Jazz has brought back some fond memories for me, and the soundtrack in this film is pretty good!
