The first half of the film was still very successful, fully rendering the apocalyptic atmosphere, especially the director has always emphasized the tension of food, but not only did no one starve to death due to lack of food at the end, but the heroine left unexpectedly. He also took away a lot of food, which has to be said to be a great irony for the characters in the film who have been fighting each other for food. The character creation in the film is also considered a success. Some film critics always discuss and criticize Mickey's leadership. In fact, I think in that context, Mickey is actually the most suitable leader, not only because he popularized the basic knowledge of survival after the nuclear explosion. , and also established the basic supply, but at this time, because there is no effective management mechanism, such as the equal treatment of food distribution, there is no effective and powerful supervision mechanism, it is doomed to be overthrown later.
However, I think the biggest failure of this film is the indiscriminate entry of the so-called suspected rescue team. The director may want to use external factors to destroy the contradiction, but this lame insertion is doomed to the ending of the second half. It has nothing to do with human nature. Because this fundamentally destroyed hope, the characters in the subsequent films fell into complete despair, so there is no suspense at all in the ending. Because there is no hope of being rescued, people naturally turn their attention to life-sustaining food, which naturally It led to the downfall of Mickey, and because there was no hope, all the absurdity and depravity after that came naturally.
