Why can't the unarmed be loaded with guns, "We", it's the United States!

What has 12 million eyes, 192 million teeth, and stretches from the Golden Gate Bridge to the Twin Towers? It's "Joining America". 4,000 miles long, hand in hand, from wheat fields to purple hills, across fruit-laden plains, from coast to coast, yes, this summer, 6 million people will join hands to fight hunger in America...

The advertisement at the beginning of the film, "a prophecy", turned out to be a declaration of the struggle of countless replicators. This is serious humor. "US", us, or the United States?

The origin comes from an experiment by the government, which created millions of replicas, and the replicas share a soul with the people on the ground. The government wants to control the behavior of the real people on the ground and become puppets. America has thousands of miles of underground tunnels, abandoned subways, and mines, none of which have any known use...

These replicants, although they have the same body and common soul as the real people, are only the shadows of the real people. The replicas cannot have the same conditions and can only survive in underground tunnels. The only food is raw rabbits. Long-term repression, long-term living has become a shadow, replicators are angry, violent, and bloody. These bursts suppressed by ordinary people have become the normal state of replicators. Replicants are your side, your opposite, the dark side of your class. The environment in which you live determines your place on the social plane.

The family of four happily went to the beach for a vacation. The black male host spoke out of the family, suppressing his sense of humor, and the hostess was worried about gains and losses. On the beach, a family of four walking in a line, with four shadows and four people, is a strange picture. The little black girl who walked into the underground mirror house at the beginning of the film turned out to be the mistress of the family of four.

One night on vacation, four people suddenly appeared outside the door, and the same strange picture appeared, four people plus four shadows. For the audience, it was obvious that this was a copy of the family. But the director's back-and-forth cuts add to that tension, and the audience is eager to know the explosiveness of that tension. The four replicants finally entered the house. Facing the four people with no difference in appearance, who is the real one and who is the replica?

After some hacking, the family finally escaped the pursuit of the replicants, and the male master killed his own replica. When the family came to a friend's house, the family was all white. They were also killed by their own clones, powerless to fight back. Maybe they have become numb in the life of clichés on the ground, while the negative side of the underground rebels because of freedom because of hatred. This is not only the dark side of one, but also the dark side of a race and a society. When the replica of the black hostess said in a hoarse and almost explosive tone, "We are Americans", perhaps the director's ambition and metaphorical intentions at this time have been revealed.

In the subsequent plot promotion, there is actually nothing new, and it is even a bit unbearable to watch. This is the way of filming in general movies. Until the clones took the hostess's son, they entered the underground tunnel and combined the two's slashing and dancing. People appreciate that you get married and have children on the ground, she is forced to give birth to freaks underground, you enjoy all this seemingly fair and reasonable treatment under the sun, in fact, at the same moment, someone is bleeding and dying to get it all. It's you, it's me, it's this class, it's this society, and it's even this world. You want fairness, but where can you get it?

The reversal at the end makes people unnerved. The girl who walked into the mirror house back then came out as a clone. She was injured by the clone, and the clone took the place of the real her and walked to the ground. However, after the duplicant stepped onto the ground, she became numb, and did not think of her underground counterparts. She worried about gains and losses and tried her best to maintain and maintain her real life. At the moment, we are also constantly experiencing the impact and challenge of identity. After obtaining a kind of success, will you have contempt for your original relationship and structure? And the girl who was replaced, the real self, after entering the underground, because of dancing, led everyone on the road of resistance. Are you eager to escape from a world and choose to forget your original life, or are you willing to embark on the road of resistance to fight for your own freedom? This is worth thinking about, not everyone does.

"They cry out all day long, but I do not answer."

The clones in red finally occupied the ground. The people on the ground were so vulnerable that even the police with weapons could not resist them. Holding hands, from the wheat fields through the purple mountains, the cross-country fruit-bearing plains, from the east coast to the west coast, just like the advertisement at the beginning of the film, it is ridiculous and absurd.

Maybe the world itself is absurd, and you and I will never know the dark stories about what you and others do to fight for freedom, equality, wealth, rights...
