super animal

Human beings do have the double-sided narrowness of beasts and humans. In terms of animality, it undoubtedly proves that human beings have deliberately avoided various tendencies of violence and sex in their journey toward the law, and maintained a castration trend. (This should be considered the background of the film's voice) But I don't see how clear the director's motives are, and it seems to be a follow-up. The structure of the film is also not very attractive.

From the point of view of human nature, the real evil is to think that evil is attractive, which leads to a kind of active and passive thinking about execution. The few short scenes in the film where Hakihara and Hajime finally meet touched me a lot. Seeing it as a memory-infused animal symbol is not really evil. This also explains that there is always a sense of contradiction in him. And Kakihara is that real evil originates from death and ends in death. When he was preparing to accept Haji's massacre, he was constantly operating on the scale of death (his resistance was also a side-building scale), did this come from a kind of thinking? If the fundamental difference between humans and animals is that humans can grasp the world as a language and a symbol, then Kagawara's image is a bit too sloppy.

It's a pity that the director is still too young to film, and explaining "after thinking" with such a crude structure must be thoughtless. A good highlight must also point to a mature period where taste is greater than style.

Therefore, I still feel that this film is an expressive painting with impure motives, and it is not as powerful as "Irrevocable".

    The masochist says that there is no emotion in your violence. At the end, it was just the feeling of weightlessness that Kakihara was very HIGH~

    Untimely erection, beautiful roundabout kicking Hengyuan, the coolest rooftop shot is too high, the most impressive thing is Hengyuan's mouth, biting hand, and the last laugh. The woman in the film is the target of violence by x. Sex, there is no use of light, false pretentiousness, and due return. The death of anger and cowardly gold also breeds a new killer, Wu, his son.
