It's a straight-forward satire

"Stupid Evolution" is about a soldier who has nothing to do in modern times, just wants to eat and wait to die, and works in an army library that no one has ever visited, until one day he is forced to accept a secret mission from the military. Conducting human freezing experiments, the story of his legendary life really began. The original one-year experiment was forgotten due to the negligence of the military, and the freezing continued until 500 years later, when the soldiers woke up and found that the human IQ was severely degraded, and the average was between 1-3. In that era, people Can't speak in complete sentences; conversations are filled with vulgar phrasing and short condensed phrases like "people are tough"; due to declining IQ, the most popular TV show is "My Balls" The series, in which the protagonist makes the audience laugh by hitting his balls by various accidents; the film was originally recommended as a comedy, but after watching it, it really makes people feel dignified. In my opinion, this It's a very straight-forward satire. It satirizes that contemporary people are unwilling to think, emphasize simplicity and straightforwardness in everything, and are addicted to TV programs and mobile phone screens, resulting in a collective decline in the IQ of all human beings in the end. Socrates once said that an unconsidered life is not worth living . The film just greatly magnifies the opposite of this argument, don't you think?

I'm Yong Jin, please pay attention to "Further Knowing", and use movies to upgrade your cognition with me!
