Science fiction and suspense are both my favorites, but I watched this movie because of iQIYI's "on-demand coupons" (hhh...you really need opportunities to meet them...?). However, I never thought that this is the only movie I have watched recently, the only one that attracts me to read from the beginning to the end, without fast-forwarding or dozing off...no interruptions (yes, watching a movie recently is either eating or hypnotizing... 囧). Although after watching it for more than 20 minutes, I can already guess that the male protagonist was "exiled" to an experimental base. However, what attracts me to keep reading is that there is a question, "Who? Why? For what purpose?" Even after these questions are answered, there is still suspense at the end. How did you escape? Who saves them? (There will be sequels 2 & 3, but I don't plan to watch them again.) A movie is a story. A compelling film is a good story. The so-called "a thousand people have a thousand Hamlets", some highly rated movies, but because of the protracted story, I often interrupted when watching the movie...even dozed off, then for me, it is not a good movie. Another criterion I judge a movie is good or bad is whether it touches me, makes me feel and moved. Even a line, a scene. There are two things that impressed me the most about this movie. One is that the male protagonists Thomas and Newt are running desperately in the maze, which is really running with their lives. Because a little slower, the maze will be closed when moving. The tension of life manifested at that time shocked me. (I really want to see it on the big screen) Another is that Thomas killed the monster because he entered the maze, and indirectly caused Elby to be injured and unconscious. He felt guilty and questioned himself because of this, not knowing whether to move on. Newt said that if Alby was there, he would have said, "Cheer up, you can't do things halfway." Sometimes, when we encounter setbacks and failures in doing things, we doubt and become frustrated. However, "As long as the direction is right, you are not afraid of the long road" This really isn't chicken soup. We need self-motivation and, of course, peer support. (By the way, when you doubt yourself, someone can give you unlimited trust and support. This experience is really indescribable.) What touched me was that Thomas and the left-behind pie Gai disputes in. Going forward is indeed dangerous, but it is equally possible to go out. But staying, although a certain sense of "stable" may be maintained in a short period of time, "death" is actually doomed. In fact, each and every one of us is in a maze. There is a joke that it is the first time to be a human being. How do you know what kind of life is right? I have no idea.
But what I can be sure of is that if many years later, I will regret not sticking to my heart, then I will choose to listen to my heart and do what my heart asks me to do now. (On the basis of various analyses and comparisons, of course, not overheating) If I know that if I choose to stay in my comfort zone without making any changes, and I am "out", then even if the other option is risky, I will also insist on listening to my heart. Until the end of the story, who knows where the exit from the "labyrinth" is, doesn't it? Until the moment when the coffin is closed, who dares to say that the exit of the maze you choose will not have a special scenery?
is for memory.
