,
first talk about the movie—
chapters, 3 story lines in one chapter
The movie started with a mobile video. A young man in the night market suddenly took out his homemade pistol from his shoulder bag and shot at a passerby. Passers-by who were shot in
fell to the ground, and the rest of the passers-by also fled in scattered areas, causing deaths in the night market to be injured.
revolves around this emergencies . The movie unfolds three acts, called " Angry Zero", "Damn Asura" and "Naihe Bridge".
The relationship between the characters is complicated. In the first act "Zero of Angry", is divided into three parallel story lines: , .
first story line one:
This story line revolves around the night market murderer Zhan Wen (played by Huang Shengqiu).
Zhan Wen is a rich second generation . His parents have divorced and he lives with his father.
As the boss of a big data research and development company, Zhan’s father has been strict with his son since he was a child. He even obeyed his clothes and arranged everything for him, including sending him abroad for further studies.
But Zhan Wen has his own dream. He likes a girl named Zero (zero) , is addicted to online games, and has a good friend Xu Yuanxing (played by Pan Gangda) . He has created A comic called "Angry Zero" .
In this comic, all characters are classified by big data, and everything in the future will be decided. Only the protagonist Zero is sober and one person is fighting against the big data demon king.
This is the projection of Zhan Wen's situation in the comics. Zhan's father does not agree with his efforts and creation, and thinks it is a waste of youth.
He was unwilling to go abroad and wanted to live with his mother, but Zhan’s love for him was only polite and refused his request.
Therefore, the thoughtful Zhan Wen prepared his homemade pistol and decided to walk to the place where passers-by gather in the night market on his 18th birthday, and expand killing people indiscriminately to vent his inner depression and dissatisfaction.
Story line two:
The protagonist of this story line is Zero, which Zhan Wen likes.
ZeroIn fact, his real name is Lin Jialin (Wang Yuxuan). He also divorced his parents since childhood and depended on each other with his mother, Sister Lin.
My sister Lin is a small vendor selling rice balls. She was deaf because she was abused by and she needed to wear hearing aids. She often drank alcohol, and her family environment was very bad.
Therefore, although Lin Jialin has extremely high mathematical talent, she still needs to use her spare time to work everywhere to subsidize her family income, and is also entangled with local drug dealer .
Lin Jialin is like Zhan Wen indulged in a game called " King of Kings " to escape reality. He also used the Internet celebrity photos found on the Internet to transform into a girl named Zero, and used "beautiful color" to deceive the veteran player of to "shiny" the equipment of .
reporter Mei Junzhi (played by Mo Ziyi) is very interested in Lin Jialin's life and wants to write her story into reportage to expose the living conditions of the people at the bottom.
He asked Lin Jialin to meet at the night market and wanted to interview her.
Story line three:
The protagonist of this story line is the veteran player "Shanshan" in Story line two.
Shinshan’s real name is Hu Zhisheng . He is a civil servant and a top otakus. He is introverted and shy in reality and is a big shot in the world of the Internet.
Hu Zhisheng's Fiancée Vita's life is exactly the opposite of him. She is a social animal who works in a game advertising company and is responsible for the promotion of "World of Kings".
Because of the fact that Hu Zhisheng and Vita's marriage date are approaching, but their relationship is getting more and more distant.
Vita's strong made Hu Zhisheng feel uncomfortable, and he was already fascinated by that Zero, so he asked Vita to meet at the night market and edited the text message again. wanted to break up with Vita .
But all this ended because of the sudden shooting.
Zhan Wen took out his pistol and shot him at passers-by. Hu Zhisheng did not forget to use his mobile phone to secretly record the video, but was discovered by Zhan Wen and shot several times. He died accidentally because of a shot in the chest of .
, and Zhan Wen was eventually taken away by , Mei Junzhi and subdued him.
.
In the film, each character is only one step away from "evil". This case has been repeated, what is the result?
and what is the metaphor of "Asura"?
Act 2 "Damn Asura" will tell the story of after the night market shooting.
Vita Due to Hu Zhisheng's death, she became depressed . She used Hu Zhisheng's account to log in to "World of Kings" and started a live broadcast to interact with fans to relieve the pain of losing Hu Zhisheng.
But Vita soon discovered that Hu Zhisheng failed to send a breakup text message before he was killed, and learned that he had once loved a girl named Zero.
Vita hopes to see this Zero, but in reality, Zero Lin Jialin has been ambushed by the police and arrested because of selling drugs .
Zhan Wen was arrested by the police for the shooting. He did not intend to defend himself. He only hoped to get the legal ruling , and was unwilling to apologize to the family of the deceased Hu Zhisheng for the sake of reducing his sentence.
His good friend Xu Yuanxing hopes that Zhan Wen can get a reduced sentence . In order to force Zhan Wen to come out to apologize, Xu Yuanxing kidnapped Zhan Wen's parents , but was eventually subdued by the police who broke into the door.
Zhan Wen became a murderer because he shot Hu Zhisheng;
Mei Junzhi, who subdued Zhan Wen that night, almost beat Zhan Wen to death;
In order to help Zhan Wen, Xu Yuanxing also did something illegal.
The distance between everyone and "evil" is often just one step away.
If all this can be repeated, what direction will the story develop?
Act 3 "Naihe Bridge" gives the answer.
It was the night when the shooting occurred. When Zhan Wen was about to commit the crime, he met Lin Jialin who was driving away from the night market to meet Mei Junzhi.
The two of them reconnected, Zhan Wen also gave up the idea of committing a crime , began dating Lin Jialin, and developed into a couple.
Zhan Wen also found confidence and decided to break free from his father's shackles and be himself. Everything seems to be developing in a good direction .
However, some people are happy and some are worried. Lin Jialin's appearance destroyed the relationship between Xu Yuanxing and Zhan Wen.
Watching the two show their love in front of them, Xu Yuanxing feels very uncomfortable. In order to vent his emotions, he took Zhan Wen's pistol at night and sabotaged him on the street. As a result, he was arrested for breaking the store glass and implicated Zhan Wen again.
That night, Hu Zhisheng asked Vita to meet at the night market and sent a text message to Vita, which caused Vita to lose control of her emotions. She lost her mind and humiliated Hu Zhisheng for a while, and finally broke up with tears.
What made the worse was . Hu Zhisheng, whose self-esteem was severely hit, found that The Zero he admired was Lin Jialin pretending to be a photo of an internet celebrity girl. immediately came to her and asked her to return the equipment worth more than 100,000 yuan that she had cheated.
Lin Jialin was unwilling to return it or pay it. The two had a verbal conflict. In a rage, Hu Zhisheng used an horse hoof lock to kill Lin Jialin .
In this ending, the anger that originally belonged to Zhan Wen was transferred to Xu Yuanxing and Hu Zhisheng, and Hu Zhisheng, the victim of the shooting, became a perpetrator here.
Even if everything starts over, it cannot make the ending better. Everyone in the story has one thing in common, that is, they cannot be satisfied in reality, Therefore, their hearts are full of "anger" .
The legendary Asura is aggressive by nature , often has anger . It is this kind of helplessness, anxiety, and anger that controls everyone.
is either Zhan Wen, Xu Yuanxing or Hu Zhisheng. Because they all have the seeds of "evil" , they cannot escape the fate of tragedy . Asura metaphor is this seed of evil.
,
The real ending is more "magical" than the movie, and it unveils the scar of Taiwanese people.
Why did director Lou Yian create such a story?
Let us go back to 2014 and face the sensation of the "5.21 MRT Zhongshan Station Subway Mine" .
At around 4 pm on May 21, 2014, the locomotive of Taipei MRT Bannan Line had just departed from Longshan Temple Station and headed to the next destination Jiangzicui Station.
Criminal suspect Zheng Jie Suddenly pulled out the knife hidden on his body and waved the knife at the passengers to slash and stab the whole carriage in a mess.
What’s hateful is that Zheng Jie, who is calm in his mind, attacks at the critical point of the victim’s abdomen, chest and neck, causing many victims to be seriously injured.
When the locomotive arrived at Jiangzicui Station, Zheng Jie rushed out of the car and still intended to kill people. Under the joint encirclement of the security guards of MRT and passengers, subdued the vicious murderer . The
case caused a total of 4 deaths and 22 injuries. It is the most serious criminal case in the 18 years since the opening of Taipei Metro and has also caused a strong shock to Taiwanese society.
However, the suspect Zheng Jie, who caused this tragedy, is just , a sophomore boy at Donghai University who is only 21 years old.
In the eyes of a friend named Li, he is a humorous, lively and funny person. Not only does he have good homework, but his interpersonal relationships are also good. However, after went to college, he began to have the idea of "want to kill" .
During the interrogation process, Zheng Jie revealed that he had long wanted to die, and committed an indiscriminate murder case. It was the plan he formulated for to die quickly.
As early as when I was in high school, Zheng Jie began to feel tired of the world due to the pressure of study and life. He had never had a girlfriend, and could not see the future. He thought that studying was hard, and that it would be harder to come out to work in the future.
After going to college, this idea became even stronger. He wanted to seek relief, but he felt that suicide was too painful and he could not make up his mind.
When you see the death row prisoner in Taiwan, will be injected with anesthetic first, and then executed with a shot. Zheng Jie feels that this will greatly alleviate the pain of the death process.
Therefore, this is the extreme way to kill so many people, just to make sentenced to death .
Before the case occurred, Zheng Jie had told the friend surnamed Li and the idea of killing , which made the friend surnamed Li not know how to respond, but just advised him to be rational and calm.
But Zheng Jie has already made a swearing to kill people , saying that he doesn't want to keep his word, "If you don't do it, you will regret it even more." .
A college student can be so decisive in doing things. What has he experienced behind it? is worth investigating.
But the authorities obviously do not want to waste time. The Taiwan Provincial Department of Justice ruled on April 22, 2016 that Zheng Jie was sentenced to death for and executed him on May 10.
was executed 18 days after the case was finalized, which is the fastest execution of the death penalty in the judicial history of Taiwan, China.
Public opinion, media and Taiwanese people hope he dies, but What kind of desperate life has he experienced? , why did he do this?
No one has thought about it, no one knows whether there will be similar events after he dies, and no one seems to care about it.
It is precisely because of the concern of this case that Lou Yian hopes to reproduce it through the movie, revealing the cruel truth of the dark side of human nature, and triggering the public's thinking about murders to avoid the occurrence of similar incidents.
Therefore, this is a movie that reveals the current situation of Taiwan society. It also has thoughts and reflections on human nature and has profound social significance.
.
vs. "The Determination of Breakup" starring Tang Wei, famous Korean director Park Chan-woo, starring Tang Wei, "Damn Asura", "Damn Asura" is obviously not that clever in its expression method, and the grasp of the sense of camera also seems young.
But it tells a story with compassion and humanistic care. If Pigeon compares it, I prefer the latter a little more.
In recent years, from " Burning " to " Parasite ", Korean movies are incredible internationally, , but "The Determination to Break Up" feels the overall connotation of these two movies, both of which are significantly different from these two movies.
Chinese Taiwanese movies have also emerged in many good works over the years, one has increased and the other has declined. Pigeon believes that "Damn Asura" There is also a chance to make a comeback.
We have no choice of films in the mainland and Hong Kong. In terms of Hong Kong films, Pigee’s favorite is "My Extraordinary Parents" ; Pigee in the mainland films hopes to be directed by Tsui Hark "Watermen Bridge" , which also allows Americans to see the current industrial level of war films.
