Escape with a kayak -- just a psychological sustenance

Reagan 2022-02-24 08:02:27

After watching the whole film, I felt absurd and absurd from the beginning to the end, and the phrase "becoming us" at the end made me connect to my work, including the information on the Internet, and I burst out laughing. You see, it's so difficult to stick to the principles, and to be smooth, you only need the words "be us".

At the end, I don't think the male protagonist can escape, but just gives the audience an ethereal hope. As a pessimist, I even feel that the last scene is a psychological sustenance given by the male protagonist after he compromises. He hopes that he will not compromise, and he also hopes You can escape by yourself, but you see, how can a kayak do it?

    Bought the original book last year and haven't read it yet? I'm so lazy thats some catch catch 22 The comedy effect is pretty good

    All the advantages of the film come from the original book, and the rest is garbage. Catch 22 can't be made into a movie, it's Mission Impossible. But since it is going to be shot, at least it can be interpreted from one angle. Unfortunately, this piece does nothing. The first hour was hilarious, the second was heavy, so what? Commanders are stupid. Some leaders are very small. War is cruel—every war movie says that.

Catch-22 quotes

  • Yossarian: Is Orr crazy?

    Dr. 'Doc' Daneeka: Of course he is. He has to be crazy to keep flying after all the close calls he's had.

    Yossarian: Why can't you ground him?

    Dr. 'Doc' Daneeka: I can, but first he has to ask me.

    Yossarian: That's all he's gotta do to be grounded?

    Dr. 'Doc' Daneeka: That's all.

    Yossarian: Then you can ground him?

    Dr. 'Doc' Daneeka: No. Then I cannot ground him.

    Yossarian: Aah!

    Dr. 'Doc' Daneeka: There's a CATCH?

    Yossarian: A catch?

    Dr. 'Doc' Daneeka: Sure. Catch-22. Anyone who wants to get out of combat isn't really crazy, so I can't ground him.

    Yossarian: Ok, let me see if I've got this straight. In order to be grounded, I've got to be crazy. And I must be crazy to keep flying. But if I ask to be grounded, that means I'm not crazy anymore, and I have to keep flying.

    Dr. 'Doc' Daneeka: You got it, that's Catch-22.

    Yossarian: Whoo... That's some catch, that Catch-22.

    Dr. 'Doc' Daneeka: It's the best there is.

    Yossarian: They'll never recognize me without my uniform!

    Danby: You'll be on the run with no friends! You'll live in constant danger of betrayal!

    Yossarian: [laughs] I live that way now.

    Danby: Yossarian, for God's sake, hurry up!

    Yossarian: So long, Chaplain!

    Tappman: How do you feel, Yossarian?

    Yossarian: Fine... because I'm scared to death.

    Danby: You'll have to keep on your toes every minute.

    Yossarian: I'll keep on my toes.

    Tappman: You'll have to jump.

    Yossarian: I'll jump.

    Tappman: JUMP!
