With laughter, the screening hall gradually became silent. Looking at cage on the big screen and on the recruits training bag again, his dark brown eyes were full of sadness and loneliness, and the light bitterness spread slowly between his eyebrows.
He sat up slowly and slowly. His slow movement was as heavy as a precipitous one, and his whole body was full of fatigue. Even in the face of the same curse, "stand up, waste", he did not respond. His sad eyes were calm and distant looking at the camera lens, like a dark blue lake, unfathomable and peaceful.
All the emotions, suddenly stopped.
Gavin's nose was slightly sour, and his chest was filled with unspeakable sobs. He couldn't say a word.
After training again and again, death again and again, and tempering again and again, cage gradually grew up, just like the "Verdun angel" in TV news. After "more than ten days of training", he grew into a super warrior. At the same time, he saw the illusion of Omega on the ground and determined the attack target; But only after experiencing it can cage understand what kind of heat Rita has experienced.
Still, they couldn't get close to omega.
In the first stage, cage and Rita didn't even have a way through the beach area. Death, for cage, has become a routine; But at the same time, he had to see his comrades die again and again.
Some people died because of his stupidity, some died to save him, some died because of his drag, and some died to save their teammates. However, they never gave up fighting. Even in the face of annihilation, they continued to advance bravely.
The beach became a real slaughterhouse. While cage is making progress, Omega is also evolving, leaving no chance for human beings.
Once again, cage exposes his back in order to save Ford. Griff blocks the gun for him and makes a heroic sacrifice; Ford died with the enemy in order to save Skinner; Then, more than a dozen aliens appeared at the same time, and they all wiped out team J, including Rita.
Looking at Rita without breath, cage puts down his arms and stands in the same place, waiting for the enemy to devour her, and then wakes up again. This time, standing in front of Rita again, cage failed to summon up courage after all. He chose to escape and secretly left the military camp to drink in the bar.
The end result is that the whole of London is occupied and the end of the world is coming.
Cage finally realized that the so-called "saving the world" is not a joke. He has too many lives on his shoulders and the fate of the entire J team. As a result, cage perked up and put more energy into training. Those glib, those rambling, those romantic all disappeared and grew into a soldier with firm vision and iron style.
After going to the battlefield again, cage becomes the invincible God of war, leading team J and Rita to make great progress, finally breaking through the beach and entering the second stage.
In the fierce pursuit of aliens, cage and Rita come to a farmhouse. There is no gasoline in the car and no battery in the armor. They have to stop in the farmhouse and look for a new means of transportation. However, cage refuses in every way and insists that Rita stay and even go back. The rest of the road is completed by himself.
Just when all the audience thought it was the coward's relapse, Rita noticed something different and debunked the truth: This is not the first time they have arrived at the farmhouse.
In fact, they have come to the farmhouse countless times, tried again and again, different methods, different strategies, but all the results are the same. Rita's dead, cage's on.
Cage clearly realized that if he moved on and wiped out Omega, it would mean that Rita would die forever and never come back to life. It was too heavy and too cruel for cage to accept, and he didn't want to, so he insisted that Rita stay.
But Rita refused. So history repeats itself.
Looking at the dying Rita, cage hesitated, timidly and fearfully stopped at the same place, walked forward like a walking corpse, held Rita's left hand, and his eyes were blank.
Rita drew a smile from the corner of her mouth. Her voice trembled slightly, as if suffering from unspeakable pain. "My middle name is... Rose." After that, Rita took her last breath.
Cage knelt on the ground, motionless. His eyes lost all their colors, only gray, even sad. His numb and stiff look fainted slowly in the depth of his eyes, but revealed a deep despair, dragging his ankles down quickly.
The aliens came. Cage didn't resist. As a result, the scene just appeared: cage woke up again, but he was at a loss.
There was silence throughout the screening hall. It's not just Gavin.
For the audience, death again and again, in the banter and cheerful editing, there is no sense of reality, just like a video game, which can be saved and repeated without any burden; But along with the advance of the camera, they got to know every member of team J, such as the kind Griff, the cheap Ford, the bloody Nancy, the clumsy Kimmel, the irascible Skinner, and the fierce Kunz.
They need to see these familiar characters die again and again, for their comrades in arms and for victory.
At this moment, they finally understood the meaning of Rita's words. When cage mentioned Rita's boyfriend in Verne, she said lightly, "he died more than 300 times in front of my eyes", so she gradually became numb, wrapped herself up tightly and became an iceberg beauty.
At this moment, they finally understood cage's words, "I wish I didn't know you."
Not because of hate, but because of love. That's why the pain was so intense that Gavin couldn't help being sour and speechless.
"Rose", this is Rita's middle name. It's just an introduction to her name, but it's so moving and beautiful. In the silence and quietness of the screening hall, there was a faint sound of sniffing and wiping tears. The unspeakable emotion and bitterness filled the crowd.
Unconsciously, the passage of time has lost its meaning. Every audience has entered cage's world and followed him into endless reincarnation. With every death and rebirth, they are experiencing more and more suffering. They really feel the torture and pain of killing reincarnation.
Gavin would have to applaud Paul Greengrass if he could.
The narrative of Flowing Clouds and flowing water, the combination of fast and slow, ups and downs, and the whole process of transition are completed in one go, not only the slightest distraction time is not left, but also the redundant waste lens completely disappears——
Now Gavin finally understood why the narration of team J was so complete and full when he met for the first time, almost as the role of "Avengers". Because of this, every role of team J has established contact with the audience, which weakens lanli's role, but increases the audience's sense of substitution.
Finally, all the narrative focus falls on the shoulder of lanli again, and lanli's performance completes the weight and depth of the core of the film. In just a few scenes, cage's struggle, pain, suffering and torment, as well as cage's sadness, despair, bitterness and numbness, in the lenley's weightless performance, the film was instantly upgraded to a higher level.
Death has never been so simple; Killing has never been so easy.
"Where's your helmet?"
"I'm not going to wear it. It's too much of a hindrance." Once again on the battlefield, cage did not join Rita, nor did he go with team J. he chose to fight alone. His strong and fierce eyes burst out a strong bloodthirsty breath, as well as a sense of determination and decisiveness that will never return.
Not only the audience in the screening hall, but Griff, standing in front of cage, is also full of question marks, "have you had a drink?" In the tense atmosphere, the audience chuckled again, but the radian of the corner of the mouth couldn't go up in a flash.
"Give me three more 556 clips; Eight grenades and a battery. " That's cage's answer.
Alone and fighting with blood, cage shows his strong and domineering spirit of seeing God and killing God, meeting Buddha and beheading Buddha. All the way, he arrives at the site of Omega revealed by the illusion, which is an abandoned dam. No one has ever arrived here.
But then cage realized it was a trap. Omega was not there, but alpha was waiting for him. Instead of killing cage, the aliens tried to drain cage's blood and cut off his time reset ability. Cage has no chance to be alone, so he chooses to stop himself and go back to the file.
In desperation, cage finds Carter again through Rita, explaining the situation, but the three are helpless.
Now the only hope is the converter developed by Carter - for this reason, he lost his job and was considered to be a neuropathy. The so-called converter is placed in alpha's body, and then through the communication band between alpha and omega, in order to find Omega.
But because of the lack of equipment, they had no way to further test and experiment - all the equipment was left in the White House; Moreover, the transponder needs an alpha to work.
But they don't need an alpha, because cage is an alpha.
As a result, cage and Rita come back to the combat department in London and find the general - obviously, they have tried more than once, and failed again and again. After that, they simulated the way to avoid soldiers and crowds, successfully entered the general's office and got the opportunity to talk face to face.
What's more interesting is that it's not the first time cage and the general have talked.
"General, this is not the first time we have had such a dialogue, because you are very stubborn. You refuse to believe my words, because Dr. Carter is right, the enemy can control the time at will, we are doomed to failure. No matter how many people you send, they will die. The only way to win this war is to find their core energy and destroy it. Now, the key to finding it is in that safe.
No matter how many times we have had this conversation, you refuse to believe that London will fall tomorrow. We are totally defeated and have nothing
This time, they succeeded.
