Recursion

Haylie 2021-12-30 17:20:54

This movie tells a person who has the ability to predict the future. This prediction of the future reminds me of recursion in function calls. The protagonist in the film can foresee the future, which also allows him to see the future of his own foreseeing the future. This is like when two lenses are facing each other, because the mirror in the mirror allows you to see countless mirrors. As said in the movie, when you look at the future, the future changes. This is not just a branch, because you can see the future self recursively, so the changes to the future will also be unlimited, which makes the future still enter an unknown state.

    A movie to watch for the male protagonist. Still prefer this setup.

    The plot of the eyedrops in the eyelid mimics a Clockwork Orange. What a waste of red-haired Aunt Moore acting in an action movie.
