On the Douban long review of this film, the first one is written by the subtitle group member "Father Tony Falls Valley", some explanations about the subtitles of this film.

Everyone should think of some painting styles.

Such a subtitle translation, of course, there will be some people who say Ray, but I personally think this time is a plus.

There are three Chinese translations of the film.

Interestingly, these translations are translated from three different aspects of the film's content.

Let's start with Cell 211.

This translation is the most common.

It is about the protagonist Juan in prison, and the cell numbered 211 is in.

As an aside, I personally like Spanish movies.

Because of many Spanish films, the subject matter always has a unique creativity.

For example, filmed in the form of a pseudo-documentary, combined with an enclosed space, a viral horror thriller: "Death Video".

Time travel, and finally form a closed loop of the future and the present into a closed loop of science fiction crime movie: "Time and Space Sin".

Not to mention a series of films by Spanish national treasure director Almodóvar, such as "Say To Her", "All About My Mother" and so on.

And today's "Cell 211", in the prison film, its theme is also relatively unique.

See the second translation of the film:

The Beast of Prison

In this second translation, the trapped beast refers to the male protagonist Juan.

In particular, Juan's identity is not that of a prisoner, but of a prison guard.

He didn't go to jail for some misdemeanor.

It's because I'm too dedicated to my job.

If it weren't for Juan going to prison a day early to experience work in order to show a good professional style, he wouldn't have encountered a prison riot that day.

Here's the interesting.

Juan, who encountered the prison riots, not only failed to leave the prison in time.

Instead, he was thrown into Cell 211.

And that's not all.

In many prison films, the relationship between prisoners and prison guards is not harmonious.

This film is no exception.

So Juan, who had to be imprisoned, made this choice in order to save his life:

Posing as a prisoner, trying to save his life in prison, he looks for an opportunity to leave the prison.

This setting makes Juan the trapped beast.

In order to survive, Juan must be in prison, battling wits and courage with the prisoners.

Even staged an infernal drama.

But this film is not willing to let Juan's survival path go to the IQ is not online.

As a result, an even more chaotic situation has been added.

It is certain that the situation is getting more and more unmanageable.

Usually, prison riots have two main purposes:

Jailbreaking;

Negotiate with the police to fight for what the prisoner wants.

In this film, for the second purpose.

As a result, the fight between the prisoners in the prison and the police outside the prison, and the chain reaction, became the third translation of the film:

Inside and Outside the Prison

It is estimated that some friends will also feel:

Since there is a riot, the police will use professional force to suppress it and solve it.

But this time, the police did not dare to kill it because of the rat trap.

This setting lies in the prisoner's "black eating black".

Inside this prison, there are three super criminals, and these three people are not the boss, but chips.

The three are "ETA" terrorists with sentences that add up to hundreds of years.

Note: ETA is a violent separatist terrorist organization that endangers the entire Spanish society.

Because the Spanish government did not want the three terrorists to have an accident in prison, it led to a head-on exchange between the government and ETA, or triggered other adverse reactions.

As a result, these three terrorists became better hostages in the hands of prisoners than the guards:

If we don't agree to my brother's conditions, we'll kill these three people, and you police will clean up the mess yourself."

Inside the prison, there must be fighting each other, and the inside and outside of the prison are also fighting, forming a stalemate.

Even the media mixed in.

After the prison riot was reported, a large number of prisoners' families were emotionally excited.

The emotions of the prisoners were also affected by the news reports of the situation of their families outside the prison.

It is such a complicated situation that pushes the whole situation step by step to the point of being unmanageable.

And triggered a chain reaction.

Trying to survive from such a situation and retreat from it is difficult for Juan, who is fighting alone.

At the same time, in terms of time, this film does not give Juan a buffer time.

We have seen some prison films with a long time span before, and the protagonist generally has a mental journey.

It's the process of one value being restored by another, QJ, order.

For example, in "Prison Storm", Liang Jiahui, who had just entered prison, committed suicide because he was bullied by his fellow inmates.

But after a long time, he slowly mastered the rules of the prison and learned the way to survive.

Therefore, he began to know how to let go of some of the concepts he had once had, and get along with his fellow prisoners with prison rules, so as to save himself.

Many years ago, there was also a prison novel in China called "Four Walls".

The protagonist, Mai Mai, is an economic prisoner who also survives in prison by his mind.

And there is a passage in which it is written that Mai Mai, who has spent some time in prison, calls one of the big brothers in prison a brother, and even the big brother plans to cooperate with him after going out.

At the moment, of course, Mai Mai was full of promises.

But behind the scenes, the mental activity is: go out and cooperate with you, unless my brain is in the water.

In comparison, the story of "Cell 211" should be 1 or 2 days from the beginning to the end.

Juan couldn't adapt slowly.

Moreover, Juan is not a small and powerful male protagonist with amazing strength in movies such as "Raid".

So, you won't see Juan in one of these high-intensity fight scenes.

Juan can only rely on his mind, judge the situation, and adapt to changes.

Dragged away by the rapidly changing situation, Juan can only choose to fight with quick wits and courage, passively or actively to save himself.

What's more, the system, the environment, and everything that happens outside the prison depicted in the film has a whole-body impact on the prison.

As the situation evolves, Juan doesn't just have to fight the inmates in the prison.

He even had to fight with the whole system and the police who were supposed to be on his side.

So, although there was no such long-term effect in Juan.

However, the short-term damage caused is more violent.

And this film does not want to bring the audience only a cool film.

The struggle sparked by the prison riots, however, gradually reflected a feeling of helplessness and anger from Juan.

In the end, there was even a little bit of the tragedy of being forced to go to Liangshan in the Water Margin.

Specifically, the Joker said no more.
