There is such a convention that whenever a blockbuster movie comes out in South Korea, some people will use it to measure the time difference with a Chinese movie. The standard sentence format is "dump Chinese movie xxxx years", such as "Ming Liang" some time ago. Naval Battle" and "Assassination", such as the current "Train to Busan" and "Tunnel", some say 10 years, some say 20 years, and some say 30 years, everyone is a solid mathematician .
I won't say that "Train to Busan" is a bad movie, it's just a commercial film above the normal pass line. The highlights have been almost the same as Amway through various channels, such as the design of special effects scenes, the sense of oppression of the closed compartment, the fierce attack of zombies, and so on.
As for the profound themes and human nature, I really don't see it. I think it's actually quite shallow and mediocre in this respect - the government conceals the truth, this stalk is not new for a long time, let alone in the movie, isn't it the same in reality? Just watch the movie to find out! There are very few governments that do not hide the truth; - As for human selfishness, it is normal to plan for oneself at the juncture of life and death, and there is nothing surprising.
I like watching commercial films very much, and the requirements are not high, there is a basic and reasonable logic, and it is enough to be entertaining and watchable. As for the depth, of course, it is good to increase the dimension of appreciation. It doesn't matter.
I hate "Train to Busan" because the director has completely ruined the entertainment with an unreasonable human low IQ or even no IQ setting. The entire viewing process is extremely uncomfortable, especially the second half.
It is said that zombies have no brains, and the human characters in this film, including the protagonist, supporting villains and extras, are all brainless compared to zombies.
How stressful can an escape based on stupidity be?
How tear-jerking can a pathos based on stupidity be?
Zombie outbreaks are essentially the same as volcanoes, earthquakes, tsunamis, ghosts, and alien invasions. In the face of a sudden disaster, panic, fear, confusion, screaming (for women only), and running are all normal, do you not run and wait to die?
In the first half of "Train to Busan", humans mostly react in this way. Although being dumbfounded is exaggerated, it is not particularly unreliable. It's unreliable that most of the people in the movie are like this from beginning to end.
I was bitten at the beginning, and I consider myself unlucky. Anyway, I can bite others in the future.
If the survivors are temporarily out of danger and take a breather, as a matter of common sense, should they use their brains to think about what to do next?
Human beings, such a weak animal, are not as vicious as ligers, as strong as bears, as agile as elk, and have no wings to fly, but they can stand at the top of the earth's food chain because they have brains, can think, understand cooperation, and know how to cooperate. The use of tools, which distinguishes humans from animals, is the foundation of civilization.
After the people in the movie are terrified, there is a safe time to think. After the survivors got on the train from Daejeon Station, the carriages on the train temporarily separated the zombies from the humans, and the zombies would not open the door (not to mention why many people in the movie were chased by the zombies and did not know how to close the door. ), can only watch the human stare anxiously through the glass.
As an audience, put yourself in the shoes, if you were on the train to Busan, what would you do at this time?
No matter how selfish people are, including the villain who is a black man, a bus company executive who only thinks about himself, you can understand without thinking about it. There are a dozen or twenty passengers in the carriage, and most of them are young and middle-aged. Of course, they should organize a team. The chances of cooperating to survive are relatively high - selecting the commander, assigning tasks, finding out the enemy's situation, searching for weapons and water, strengthening the defense, designing a backup plan, taking shifts for reconnaissance, watching, and resting, these are all obvious things after a little thought. .
As for these people, at such a rare safety moment, most of them are still looking at zombies or looking at each other, or shivering, or in a daze, and some leisurely looking at the scenery outside the car window. Under the director's arrangement, they seem to have forgotten that they have such an organ as a brain.
That's right, if it wasn't for the director's arrangement, normal people wouldn't do this, it's illogical.
The main characters in the film are also arranged by the director to be idiots.
Three men, going from the 9th carriage to the 13th to save people, I thought they would consider climbing over from the top of the car, but I never thought that they would choose to kill the generals directly from the zombies. The strong uncle who is a hero actually unarmed. According to the fighting power shown by the zombies before, these three people are courting death.
But the director forced them to dash through both cars unscathed. After that, he seemed to realize that the strong attack was too obvious, so he switched to outwitness: while the car was passing through the tunnel in the dark, the zombies' eyesight was poor, the three cats were sitting on the seat, and all the hearing-sensitive zombies were led to the other end by the ringtone of the mobile phone. , they took the opportunity to escape.
This is the only way in the whole film that shows such a little human IQ. After they meet with the people in the 13th carriage, they completely forget it and climb over from the luggage rack instead.
This episode puzzled me. Maybe they are reluctant to phone?
In the end, I thought that the male protagonist would survive after growing from selfishness to a responsible man, but the director turned around and gave the audience another surprise, letting him chat with the zombies without warning and listen to the lyricism of the zombies. Naturally, zombies are not vegetarians, so biting him is inevitable.
I'm not surprised at this point, it's not surprising that he died one more time, anyway, the characters in this movie will eventually die stupid.
It's all the director's arrangement.
As a member of the human race, although I sometimes blush at the actions of my own race, sometimes I feel that the extinction of human beings from the earth is not a bad thing.
But it should never be the way it is in the movie.
A race that has established a civilized society for thousands of years, although human beings are arrogant, selfish and stupid, they also have their own proud capital. A normal human will recognize that
people have dignity.
People are intelligent.
These two bottom lines, perhaps you can say that dignity is not a human necessity. Then, even if only for their own selfish survival, it is impossible for the brains that have been evolved for thousands of years to be completely zero.
But Train to Busan does just that.
My first reaction was that the director was stupid, but thinking about it rationally, this is the most unlikely. Just like you can say "Little Times" is stupid, but you can't say Guo Jingming is stupid, not only is he not stupid, but he is smarter than most people, otherwise how could he make such a high box office movie.
Therefore, the director of "Train to Busan" is smart, and extremely smart, and knows what to do to stir up the audience's emotions.
Some people say that judging from the films the director has made in the past, he is extremely abhorrent of human beings. It is very clear from this look. In his eyes, most Koreans or most human beings have the same IQ. It is better for such stupid humans to be eaten by zombies. Before they are eaten, they can also help him. Count the money and applaud him.
