The day after the premiere, "Han River Monster" was fully launched, and in Seoul alone, almost all movie theaters hung up large stills of "Han River Monster", and it seems that AWM has invested a lot of money on this movie. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Monster of the Han River" is coming!

"Film Weekly", a magazine with good sales, also quickly published Lu Shishi's film review - "I have worked hard for a long time, but I am just a fart".

This film review has been recognized by many people, and it has also brought a lot of audiences to "Monster of the Han River".

At 12 o'clock that night, the data was counted, and on the first day of the premiere of "Monster of the Han River", the number of moviegoers was 580,000!

580,000!

You must know that the first screening of "The King's Man" was only 190,000!

Such data, at least for this year, is unique!

It's going to be a big hit! It may not be as miraculous as creating "The King's Man"! With the hard work of the media (what kind of discipline do these media have, as long as it can attract people's attention, where will they not report hard), the number of moviegoers has gradually increased, and the popularity of "Monster", Lu Shishi's film reviews have also been turned out before, and they have been wildly reprinted by major websites, and they have also aroused heated discussions among fans.

A: "How to bring down the big monster of the government"

Where is this monster film, this is a political metaphor film of Hongguoguo. What the Xiaomin family is struggling to resist is actually a government that also eats your flesh and spits out your bones, and has no asshole.

The salamander-like tentacle monster takes the terrifying route, while the government that is also a monster takes the comical route, and there are countless easy-to-use sarcasms in the film, although it is a small detail, but it is very natural: the Chinese people are submissive to the Americans, who represent a more powerful government, and speak broken English; The family was crying over the girl's portrait, but the reporter was only busy taking pictures, when an administrator came to angrily reprimand a lady for parking indiscriminately and told her to drive away; The yellow-clad government worker who announced the lockdown order fell before he could speak, and finally couldn't even tune in to the TV station; After a lot of tossing, I went to the hospital, but the doctors and nurses didn't wear protective clothing and ran around; To enter the quarantine area, the staff who are serious about asking for bribes will first reprimand you with great justice; The uncle went to the fat man for help, and asked the fat man enviously if he had a salary of 7 million won, and the fat man said gloomily: Yes, there is a credit card debt of 7 million... The fat man betrayed his uncle and took the money, and the first thing he did was to ask the police: How much tax do I have to pay? The police actually answered in detail in this situation・・・・・・ the centralization of the tax collection rules, the stupidity of the system, and the pervasiveness of the commercial society, and in these little jokes, slowly and reasonably infiltrated the tone of the film: it was in this strange area that the monster that devoured everything was naturally produced.

The complaint against the government also includes some less comical information, typically, of the depressed uncle who has been unemployed and depressed because of his participation in the **. Watching the wanted news in the car, even the father who looks the most wasteful in the family has a regular photo and a job introduction (although my aunt said: It's completely a big head post taken at the subway station...), but my uncle didn't say a word about it. Does this count as a sensitive word incident?

Others have said a lot about the background and structure of the film, and it's not interesting to repeat it. It is worth mentioning that at the end of the film, the family worked together to bring down this monster, how did they get rid of it? Over-interpreted, this well-designed process conveys the director's political philosophy:

1. Relying on the elderly is definitely not good. The grandfather, the representative of the elderly in the film, said numbly when his children complained about the government: What the government says, we can believe it, and what else can we do. This is a crowd of people whose suspicions have been smoothed out, and when it comes to life and death, although they burst out with dazzling courage, they are the first to be extinguished;

2. It is certainly not enough to rely on the pioneers of the revolution alone. Uncle is the representative of the forerunners, his task is to light the fire, but this may not necessarily be successful, the last Molotov cocktail accidentally but not accidentally lost his hand, Uncle lost his years in fact;

3 But the tinder will never be extinguished, and at this time, it will take a younger person like my aunt to overcome hesitation and hesitation, and pass on the tinder in order to hit the monster;

4 to the monster the most painful and fatal blow is the father of the representative of all the small people, they usually live like ants, throw away the past groggy, bravely and firmly with the steel pipe against the monster, even if the back is the abyss, even if the hand is crippled, still do not retreat to the end, the most important thing in this step is not to forgive, to the end.

5. Is the revolution over at this point? Sort of, but "no one has ever really won in a war", and sacrifices are always unexpected. The girl died in the end, but there were younger boys who survived in place of the girl, and he was the flower of continuity, and he lived and grew.

6 Of course, the most important thing in the whole process is love, courage and hope. (Forget the corny preaching in the Japanese manga).

Numbness, lethargy, confusion, unemployment, alcoholism, procrastination, teasing, the family may seem like they are dead, but they have always had love, courage and hope in their hearts, so they can give it a go, save themselves and save the world. They are the light and salt of this world. Look at the end of the film, how the light and salt of the world treat the empty words of the temples: with their butts in their faces, and with their toes turning off the noisy televisions.

B: I watched the monster again yesterday, and I felt it.

Of course, first of all, it's a good film.

At the beginning, the monster appeared,

Civilian father Song Kang-ho and American GIs rescued people together, what was the result?

Because he was a foreign friend, the GI became a media hero, and all walks of life paid close attention to the injuries of foreign friends who sacrificed themselves for others.

As for the civilians, who hangs you?

This commoner family is a metaphor for the typical characteristics of Koreans of all eras.

Old man,

He is a Korean who has lived through the age of poverty.

It's about the post-30s, post-40s.

In other words, until the 80s, Korea was poor.

Many citizens could not eat, and they ran around for a mouthful of food, and the whole country was poor. Coupled with the dictatorship of the military and the government, that day was a miserable word.

In the film, the old man said that since his wife died, he didn't care about his son, and he went out to fool around.

My son often goes to the field to steal vegetables and watermelons and other things to eat, and when he is caught, he is beaten, and he can't eat enough and malnutrition during the growth period, and his brain is funny.

This is the pain of the times,

The older generation always feels ashamed of the next generation, running around for a living, in order to survive, and has not prepared a good growth environment for the next generation.

And the poor and arrogant era has created the character of the old man who loves to compromise, take favors, and stuff red envelopes. If the people of that era wanted to survive, they had to be like this, and in the face of survival, they had no dignity and let go of all dignity.

And the resolute look in the slow motion when the old man went to fight the monster,

Let Song Kanghao see it,

He never knew the old man who was kind and compromised in everything, and only promised to his guests.

There are such tragic eyes.

That look was the last self-esteem in the hearts of Koreans of that era who lived without dignity.

And when he found that there was no last bullet, the old man gave up completely,

But in the face of death, the action he made was not to scare down,

Instead, he turned around and waved his hand to let his family go quickly.

This paragraph is very poignant,

For him, family is everything, and in the hearts of the traditional old people of that era, family is indeed the most important.

Look at the boss Song Kanghao again, he is funny,

He represents the incompetent and honest post-60s.

It is now the mainstay of Korean society.

The old man doesn't talk about dignity, and Song Kanghao doesn't know what dignity is.

No one takes him seriously, the government doesn't take him seriously, the police don't take him seriously, the Americans don't take him seriously (except for the military doctor's joke, when he went to rescue the people locked in the house with the GI at the beginning, the GI directly said you can't let me come) The family doesn't take him seriously, anyway, he is a grass farmer that no one cares about, that is, most middle-aged Korean men in their forties who are mediocre.

But there is a Korean proverb that says well, even if it is a bug, it will struggle if you step on it, and it is a different artistic conception from a dog jumping off the wall, anyway, he was trampled on and finally couldn't stand it, so he got angry.

And then there is the angry young brother, who is also a typical thirty-year-old man.

The younger brother went to college, but couldn't find a job.

Because the time he went to college was the 80s.

The student movement was in full swing.

The Chun Doo-hwan military junta carried out a massacre of demonstrators in Gwangju,

All over the country began to stand up and move spontaneously,

The main force among them is, of course, the student power.

At that time, because it was a dictatorship, it was very strict about the demonstrations.

If you are arrested, you will be beaten severely, tortured to extract confessions, released if you admit your mistakes, locked up indefinitely if you don't admit it, and then mark your file.

If you look for a job in the future, you will hit a wall everywhere, and it won't work if you go to Zhilian Recruitment.

Many died while they were being tortured.

But it is precisely because of those radical demonstrations of all kinds,

So many people died, so much youth was ruined,

Eventually, the government amended the constitution and the military junta stepped down.

There was a lot of blood in this democratization process, but it did succeed - at least, to perpetuate the dictatorship and repression.

But the angry younger brother still couldn't find a job after all, so he had to borrow alcohol every day to kill his sorrows.

There is a problem with the file, I can't find a job,

He just wanted to fuck me, I contributed to society, and the society didn't hang me.

Many smart people compromised, demonstrated, and found jobs, such as his senior,

But he is still angry, he sprays when he sees people, he can only see the stupid places of others, and he feels that this society owes him.

Personally, I don't think there's anything wrong with this idea, it's society that's wrong,

Democratization is won because of the efforts of such people.

You love the country and the people, but the country and the people don't love you.

You must be angry.

And then there's the archer sister,

The archer sister is of course a representative of the post-80s,

Some are sluggish, half a beat slower, and afraid to make decisions.

She always felt too much pressure and couldn't get started.

As a result, critical opportunities are missed every time.

This is also a common disease of young people, and it is also a disease of the times.

The previous generation gave so much to create a better environment for you than theirs,

But you have to keep competing, competing, competing,

As a result, you can only feel the pressure.

Finally, let's talk about the youngest daughter, who is born in the 90s.

The little daughter is very cute and usually very well-behaved, although she often blames her father for not buying herself a new mobile phone.

But there was still courage at the critical moment.

This little daughter represents the future, the idealized future,

For this future, the family came together,

The cohesion of the family was originally so poor, but it was only because this daughter worked together to defeat the monster.

But it's still half a beat slower.

The ideal of the future is dead,

We can only find another realistic future, remembering that once beautiful ideal.

But let's hold the gun in our hands, we can't afford to lose in this future.
