The rationality of the final animal character

In fact, I have seen a lot of film reviews mention that the final animal character is a failure, but I think on the contrary, this is the wonderful thing.

There are a lot of details mentioned in the previous part of the film, and the whole plot is clearly explained. In fact, it is not difficult to think of all the main lines that need to be explained.

One point is mentioned, that is, split personality, like other mental problems, may represent the evolution of mankind.

Just like war veterans, many people have post-war syndromes, the most common of which is depression. The war brought depression. Depression is an anti-social symptom. It is not a disease to be precise, but a symptom. Like depression caused by other conditions in contemporary society, patients are indifferent, lacking in sociality, and not afraid of death (trend). In fact, this is what a soldier needs. If a soldier is in a normal state of mind, he is prone to mental breakdown in a war environment. Simply put, he is crazy. Therefore, depression is a protection mechanism that does not make people crazy, protecting the soldiers, and also leaving the soldiers without mercy in their hearts and killing people like hemp.

Split personality is also a dissociative personality disorder. It is also a protection mechanism, and it is also a product of evolution. Various personalities can deal with various problems. Each personality has its own memory and its own IQ. Similarly, the final animal character is reasonable. Animal character can be understood as a personality similar to qigong and ninjutsu that develops the human body's potential. Qigong implies that the human body has various supernatural abilities, because humans do have this potential. Like many qigong masters, Shaolin monks wear steel plates and are invulnerable. The same is true for ninjutsu. The nine-character mantra is also a kind of psychological suggestion that allows ninjas to have different ninjutsu from ordinary people. Why do I connect these, because when I deeply hypnotize a person, it implies that the person becomes a piece of wood, and that person is in a stupor state. This person can be placed between two tables and he can stand on his body. The last two people have no pressure, which has the same effect as qigong and ninjutsu. In essence, qigong ninjutsu is to activate potential after hinting to one's body.

So the animal style is completely reasonable.


These are some of my thoughts on this film, but I don’t know why the director thought of this, but it is indeed reasonable.
