The world needs aliens

The heroine's appearance is flat, and her acting skills are flatter. The whole play is attracted by Rose's hair, the heroine's mother, and the male lead's sexy lips. I don't think I belong to the Appearance Association, because the heroine is also quite beautiful. I belong to the Temperament Association, and the appearance of the soft girl of the heroine is difficult to link with her temperament (does anyone think the heroine looks more and more like Zheng Shuang? Special mouth).

What attracts me most about the movie is the setting of Divergents. One of the characteristics of Divergents is that they cannot define factions. The heroine has three qualities: selfless, fearless, and erudite at the same time. This does not mean that she is smart and brave. Is there selflessness? It's a personality like a great man, a Mary Sue-like setting, but such an excellent trait is hated by society and regarded as an uncontrollable anomaly, which seems to imply the suppression of independent personality in the real society. For the encirclement and suppression of the truth defenders, tris can distinguish between reality and illusion, and put the lives of others first. This is the incarnation of a truth revolutionist, usually a type of people that the ruling subject must guard against, because they are very sensitive to the environment. The squeeze is more resilient, with lofty beliefs and an unbreakable mind.

From another point of view, there is a saying in the movie that there are thousands of ways of thinking of this personality, and you
can never master her actions, which means that she does not belong to any faction. One thing can be seen from her fear test, which is completely different from the way other fearless people overcome their fears is that she allows the object of fear to engulf her. The way to face fear is to accept it completely, jumping down when you are afraid of heights, jumping in when you are afraid of water. In reality, in the test, it is like a real dream, but it magnifies the individual's fear infinitely. Tris first realizes that this is a dream, and then breaks it in an unusual way.

The Dreadnought's way of dealing with the Chamber of Secrets is to use physical objects to jam the cracks in the walls, to drive away the crows with fire, to accept the dream as reality, and to fight it in the way that reality uses, but the way of tris is to completely overturn the environment setting and jump out of all barriers, which makes me Thinking of the words "free your mind" that the black man in The Matrix (leader) said to Neo, Neo jumped down from the tall building, but flew up.

I think Tris and Neo finally have something in common at this point, that is, they have the ability to see through everything. Although they are still babies, they have already turned their eyes to the universe, to the truth that the ruler fears the most.

Their way of thinking is ever-changing, because they are not bound by any pattern, and any pattern cannot find any support in their brains, they are "viruses", and there is no way to solve them.

I am curious whether there is such a personality in reality, and whether there are such leaders among the former revolutionaries. I believe this kind of person is the most suitable leader, a kind of person who is born with knowledge, and a kind of person who will never be differentiated. , an outlier that every society needs.

    The American juvenile novel is good, but it's still a bit unsatisfactory.

    How come this is a science fiction movie = = I still don’t know if the male lead is a disagreement, but Theo James is really handsome! The background setting is actually much better than the Hunger Games, but I don’t know why it’s a bit messy.
