As the end of the blood and ice cream trilogy, the film friends still tells the story of a group of friends who encountered strange things in a small town. With the sacrifice of their companions, Simon and Nick worked together to defeat the final Boss. But "End of the World", which is the final chapter, lacks the plasma and various fighting scenes of the first two films. Bright red blood plasma turned into blue ink, and gunfights turned into hand-to-hand combat. The enthusiasm of the whole film immediately dropped a lot. There is no perfect performance of blood and ice cream. Instead, it gives us the plot of American nonsense chatter to conquer the world. . . .

If "Zombie Shaun" is a pure zombie-fighting movie, "Blood Detective" is interspersed with social philosophy. Then "The End of the World" is a bloodless, nonsensical, youthful but full of philosophical film.

"End of the World" can be regarded as the least bloody part of the blood and ice cream trilogy. It does not have the bloody zombie-fighting blood of "Zombie Shaun" or the fierce gunfight of "Blood Detective". The film tells the story of five friends who fight against robots with their bare hands. Bright red blood turned into blue ink. Bloody corpses turned into detachable machine parts. The death of the little friend has also become the deformation of the alien gentleman. The blood that people want to see is gone in this film, and most of the wonderful fight scenes can be seen in the trailer. I vaguely remember watching "Shaun of Zombies" for the first time, and my heart is full of the kind of blood that one person shoots and kills zombies alone. It was the first time I watched "Blood Detective", and my heart was full of the kind of knight plot to revenge the unfairness of the society. But when I saw "The End of the World", I didn't feel any blood, I just hoped that I wouldn't be caught by a robot. "The End of the World" has changed from the kind of single-race horses of the first two films to take revenge on the society to fight a bloody road to a story of a few friends desperately fleeing.

In addition to not being hot-blooded, this film is also the most nonsensical one in the entire series, from Simon, who is chattering, and Nick, who has not been drinking for 26 years, but suddenly drinks 5 shots, and Peter, who hides after fighting, and finally explodes Take revenge on your primary school enemies. Steven for a woman's nerves. The biggest representative of nonsense is Simon who chattered endlessly at the end, and finally made the king of the universe speechless. This kind of chatter triumphing over the world was supposed to happen only in movies made by ignorant Americans. But appearing in this movie can't help but make people feel a little senseless. In addition to being nonsensical, this movie is also the youngest in the entire series. In order to complete his childhood, Simon reunited his childhood friends. Movies preach to us that we should be crazy when we are young, and we should not give fuck. Just enjoy your own happy time and don't care what other people say.


Finally, this movie is also the most philosophical of the trilogy. "Zombie Shaun" is pure killing zombies and rushing out of a bloody way. "Blood Detective" is full of more topics worth thinking about, whether we should spare no effort to pursue our own reputation and social title. It's like the town chooses to kill anyone who stands in its way in pursuit of the perfect town. But when "The End of the World" is no longer about social ethics, it is more about the meaning of life and what kind of life is life, not just life. Like Simon said at the end no one is perfect, we don't need perfection, we need freedom, we need the opportunity to fuck up. However, what the king of the universe provides is a perfect life, and we don’t need such a life, because in a life without flaws, no one will accomplish any golden miles, no one will drink, and no one will get drunk. good story. What humans need is this freedom to do what they want, not the perfection of being controlled. Human beings can pursue perfection on their own path, they may advance or retreat, but this is the life we ​​choose, and there is no reason for anyone to interfere with our stupidity, madness!


What is life, whether it is to be happy or to meet the expectations of others. The happiness in Simon's eyes is the feeling that he can challenge the whole universe. He doesn't need success in the eyes of others, starting a family, owning a house and a car, and having an admired job. Because that kind of life is too tiring, it is to live to meet the requirements of others, and not to live a life that you want. Should you enjoy the life you want or work hard to meet the demands of others? Different people have different ideas. If a person likes to travel, even if he earns the salary of 2,000 yuan per month, it is a success to travel around the world with a backpack. Knowing what you want and not what others want, and working in that direction, is life. Some people are very happy to be bards, this is life, but some people earn 1 million a year, but they are constantly troubled every day, and they can only be regarded as trying to survive in life. Exactly what you want in life, you have to define it yourself, and work hard to discover it yourself! !
