This is the first time to write a film review, novice remarks, don't spray if you don't like it~
Closer to home, I admire the screenwriter's brain hole, and really play the parallel universe theory to the extreme. I originally thought that the first part could be explained by a dream in a dream of the heroine. Finding the murderer who will eventually kill her is the rule of the game to win, and completing the game task is to pass the level.
After watching the second part, I realized that I was wrong. The first part is only the superficial part of the development of the parallel theory, which is one of the branches of the protagonist in the countless dimensions of the universe. In the play, I boldly proposed the theory of variables, which made me realize.
The different lives experienced by the heroine in the two films can be divided into two of the countless branches of people in the parallel universe. That is to say, the heroine experiences two selves in a parallel world. Yet within each large branch there are countless different small branches. Large branches because most of the variables in each large life stage between branches make each large branch distinct from the others. In layman's terms, people in different dimensions of the world will have different family backgrounds, different life experiences, and different friendship ranges, etc., which will shape their own different destiny. Just like in the movie, the heroine meets her mother who has passed away in the second dimension, and her boyfriend who is no longer her. These are all variables. It is because these variables exist in every major stage of each person's life that each parallel world is completely different from itself.
After talking about the big branch, there are still countless small branches among the large branches. If it is said that the values of several major life decision variables in each life are the same, but the values of the small choice variables made in the big decision are different, it will lead to countless small branches in the large branch that are extremely similar but still different. As long as one variable is changed in the big branch, a different dimension will appear. If several variables are changed, multiple different dimensions will appear. With this explanation, it becomes clear that each big and small choice made at each different stage of your life, linked together is just a small branch of a large branch you have in a parallel universe. If a small selection was changed before, it was just another small branch within the big branch. It is equivalent to changing a small variable in a large branch. Of course, large branches and small branches are only relative terms, and each small branch will be composed of countless small branches, which is what I mean.
If I think so, then everything is understandable. What the heroine is looking for in the movie to kill him is actually an inconspicuous little variable in her dimensional branch. Among the countless small branches under the big branch, only one branch does not have this variable, and there is no one who wants to kill him. All branches except this one have this variable, if the variable is not found it will be killed in this branch and re-find the branch without this variable. Then, like the heroine in the movie, it enters an infinite loop until it finds a branch without this variable.
After talking about the plot theory I guessed, the plots of the two movies are not that complicated. A big branch where the first heroine was located eventually found that variable by herself, ending the death cycle. In the second part, the scientific experiment conducted by the boy who appeared on the stage and a few classmates was actually the study of the subject that can change the variables in the world of different dimensions. By changing the variable, he accidentally made the two-dimensional self meet, and was hunted down by the self in the other world. In order to end all this, he used a scientific machine to send himself back in another dimension, but he did not expect to send everyone to another dimension of everyone.
It should be noted that the heroine is not sent to the big branch where the countless small branches of the first part are located. It is another big branch. The variable parameters of each life stage of these two big branches are completely different, so the heroine found the deceased mother of the first part in the second part, and the boyfriend of the first part became the second part. someone else's boyfriend.
The heroine also realizes this, and she finds this scientific group to live in the big branch of the current dimension, but only if she finds one of the variables hidden in each small branch. That is, the variable that would allow her to be killed. Then the heroine needs to use the exclusion method to find this variable in each small branch. The transition of each small branch is death. Then came the part that everyone likes to see and hear, witnessing the N kinds of suicide methods of the heroine.
Finally, after dying N times, she found that variable parameter. This parameter is related to the hospital, which means that under the big dimension of the second film, as long as the heroine is not tricked into the hospital for any reason, she will not die. The heroine can live in the dimension she wants, and the scientific experiment team succeeded, everyone is happy.
But finally it was my turn to choose which dimension to live in, and the question came, whether to choose my mother or my boyfriend. The boyfriend in the previous dimension went to the hospital alone in order to prevent the murderer from continuing to kill, but was killed by the killer. In order to save her boyfriend from driving into a power station, the heroine terminated the lock on this dimension, and then woke up and re-selected the previous dimension to live in. After all, reality always has to be bravely faced by oneself. The latter part of the ending is a bit slow, so I won't go into details.
The screenwriter of this movie is indeed very brainy, and has a deeper and more innovative view and cognition of the parallel universe theory. It's something I rarely see in other similar movies. There's a lot to write, so let's go here first.
