I came to watch it because I knew what was so special about this movie. The story on the first day at the beginning had nothing to watch. Those who were impatient would jump to watch it, and those who couldn’t jump would simply not watch it.
The second day started to have something to watch, why is it the same as the story on the first day? Is it a cassette? I knew it would be repeated, so I jumped and jumped here. For the male protagonist, it is indeed a cassette, why is this so? The screenwriter can't explain it himself, it's purely an extension of a whimsical idea into a movie, and the cause and effect are ignored. If I had to add an explanation, I would say that the male protagonist is a bug in a computer world such as The Matrix or other-dimensional hackers. Other data include that his body cycles every 24 hours, and only his The exception is memory, which has been accumulated all the time. The final effect is that he will never grow old and die, his memory will grow without limit, and the people and things around him will repeat.
After understanding this world, what we focus on is the male lead's mental journey. If we change from a mortal to a superman, we can chase after the female lead. This is the same as we play RPG games, but the game is limited to unlimited archives and files, and data cannot be modified. At first, it was very novel, interesting, and exciting, and then encountered a bottleneck that could not be overcome no matter how to read files, or Give up, don't play in the future, or you will conquer it, break the machine, lose the fun, and go to play other games. That's why hacking ruins the game. But the ending of this film is a little different.
From the beginning, the male protagonist also felt novel and interesting at the beginning, very excited, wanted to try everything, do things that he was afraid to do before, the first step is of course to break all the rules, beat people, break the law, anyway, he will go back tomorrow, Don't be afraid of going to jail today. When I got tired of breaking the law, I started to pick girls. I randomly found a target, and after one cycle, I knew the details of the other party, and I succeeded. Then he applied this method to the heroine, but unfortunately the heroine is not an ordinary person, the requirements are extremely high, very reserved, he repeated many times, and mastered every detail of the heroine, but unfortunately this is too unnatural, Too unreasonable, too much, failure. After many failures, he was disheartened, had no love for life, and committed suicide, but after trying many different ways of dying, he finally realized and changed his pursuit method. What he uses is "when you become good enough, someone will come to embrace you", which is impossible in reality, because time waits for no one, but the male protagonist has time, and only he can realize this concept.
He continued to improve himself, skills, cultural accomplishment, personality, and finally became a superman, all like Minjun. If it was said that he took a shortcut to cycle for the heroine alone, then he was down-to-earth to cycle for everyone. Some people say that this is also a love conspiracy theory. In fact, he has become another person, not the original self, not the original plan, or that the original conspiracy no longer exists, and it is God's will for him to get love.
He loves to spread the word all over the world, so as to get the love of the whole world. At this time, he will surely succeed in pursuing everyone. This is what the title says—big love knows no bounds.
Why is the ending different? Because his bug was spread through the whole system by the virus-love, the loop program collapsed.
