The five disaster movies shared today are not only shocking and tense, but also profoundly reveal the depths of human nature in the face of disasters.
Snowpiercer
Director: Bong Joon-ho
Douban: 7.6
Have you ever heard of the never-ending "Snowpiercer"? It's not the subway that rushes the morning rush hour in reality, but the steel monster that travels through the world of ice and snow and carries the last hope of mankind in the movie.
It is said that the ecological system on this train is comparable to that of a small society, with a hierarchy like a matryoshka doll, and the layers of unraveling are unexpected secrets.
In Snowpiercer, a futuristic sci-fi thriller, the Earth enters a new ice age, and the last remaining human beings live on this ever-moving train, forming a closed and distorted social structure.
At the beginning of the film, an oppressed brave man in the lower carriage leads his comrades in an uprising, determined to break down the class barrier and attack the mysterious place of power and survival privilege at the front of the train.
The inside of the train is like a miniature version of the life-and-death contest, from the riots caused by food shortages to the fierce battles across the carriages again and again, all of which show the struggle and resistance of human nature in the apocalypse.
In this long, narrow and cold moving world, the class contradictions are sharp enough to pierce the frost of the car window, and the most chilling thing is that when people have to fall into each other in order to survive, the human choices that are cornered really hang the audience's heart on the edge of the train tracks.
When the train breaks through many obstacles and the light and darkness in human nature are intertwined, you will find that this journey related to the fate of all mankind is not only a challenge to survival in extreme environments, but also a philosophical exploration of in-depth analysis of human nature, good and evil, fairness and justice.
It makes us re-examine that eternal theme at the end of the snowy world: how we can live together, and how we should uphold the dignity and worth of human beings.
"Late Days"
Producer: John Hilcourt
Douban: 7.7
Released in 2009, the film "Doomsday is Dangerous", as if it is a sad but not sad elegy, at the end of a gloomy and barren world, tells the story of a father and son who travel through despair to find the meaning of life.
The film is set in the aftermath of a global environmental catastrophe, where the world is enveloped in dead silence, civilization collapses, and the natural order falls into chaos. The protagonist of the story is the iron-blooded father played by Viggo Mortensen, who takes his young son and embarks on an embarrassing trek south to find life.
In this apocalyptic survival journey, they not only have to face extreme scarcity of resources, harsh climate, and unknown dangerous creatures, but also face the fission and test of human nature under extreme pressure.
This father used his tenacity and love to hold up a piece of heaven for his son, guarding the kindness and innocence in the child's heart, and teaching him the idea that hope should not be given up in a dark world.
The difficulties they encounter along the way are not only the embodiment of survival instinct, but also the shining point of exploring human nature, and singing the power of not giving up faith even in the face of desperate situations.
The film is like a mirror, reflecting the courage and choices of human beings in the face of desperate situations, and also makes us reflect on the essence of life when civilization recedes and material abundance is no longer abundant, and how we should stick to the moral bottom line and humanitarian care.
"The Aftermath of the Apocalypse"
Producer: Frank Marshall
Douban: 8.1
This film tells the story of how the survivors of the air crash, based on real historical events, face the test of life and death and challenge the limits of survival.
The movie is set in which a team of rugby players and their friends and family crash in the Andes Mountains while flying to the game.
On this snow-covered, inaccessible mountain, they face not only cold, hunger, and the ruthlessness of nature, but also the ultimate torture of human nature, morality, ethics, and the dignity of life.
In this film, the survivors have to make unimaginable decisions in order to survive, such as the extreme behavior of cannibalism.
They find hope in despair and stick to their beliefs on the edge of life and death, showing the complex psychological changes of people in desperate situations and their incomparable dedication to life.
Those suffocating scenes of struggle for survival make us wonder if the rules of human society still apply in the face of extreme difficulties, and how will family, friendship, and love withstand the baptism of this cruel test of survival?
In short, after watching this movie, you will be moved by those tenacious vitality, and you will also have a deeper understanding of the various faces of human nature when faced with life and death choices.
This is not only a visual and spiritual impact, but also a brave exploration of the essence of human nature.
Cassandra Bridge
Producer: George S. P. Cosmatus
Douban: 8.3
This old 1976 movie is a classic of tension and suspense. The film tells the story of a group of people who encounter a Resident Evil event on a speeding train, and they have to engage in a life-and-death race against time in a narrow and enclosed space.
The story begins with a deadly outbreak on a plane that evacuates passengers to an international train bound for the Cassandra Bridge in a panic.
This is no ordinary journey, as the people on the bus not only have to deal with the threat of a virus that can kill them at any time, but also have to deal with internal conflicts and external pressure blockades.
It is as if the train has become a miniature society, and everyone's character and morality are exposed in this crisis.
"Cassandra Bridge" is like a magnifying glass, showing the various manifestations of human nature in life and death. Some people have a conscience and do not hesitate to sacrifice themselves to protect others, while others fall into panic and do whatever it takes to protect themselves.
Although this old film is old, its plot is compact, the characters are full, and especially the in-depth excavation of human nature in extreme environments can still cause us to think deeply about survival ethics and social responsibility.
"The Great Tangshan Earthquake"
Director: Feng Xiaogang
Douban: 7.8
The 2010 movie "Tangshan Earthquake" can be said to have earned enough tears and word of mouth. This movie is definitely not an ordinary disaster movie, it brings us back to that tragic historical moment, the Tangshan earthquake in 1976, and the natural disaster that took countless lives and destroyed countless families with the lens.
Director Feng made an extraordinary move this time, and directly restored the terrifying scene when the earthquake occurred with special effects, and the city turned into ruins in one second, which was heart-wrenching and shocking.
But what is even more touching is that the film does not stop at the visual impact, but digs deep into the life trajectories of those survivors after the disaster, especially the joys and sorrows of the protagonist's family after life and death.
The role of the mother in the movie, facing the scene where two children are pressed under the same stone slab and have to make difficult choices, is really heartbreaking.
This choice not only changed the fate of her life, but also became the emotional thread throughout the film. And as time goes by, the intricate emotional entanglement and final reconciliation between mother and daughter show the boundless and tenacious side of maternal love.
After watching this film, many people cried a lot, and I was no exception to Black Beans. This movie tells us that we may be small in the face of nature, but we are so strong in the face of family and love.
