< Terrorist cruise ship > Plot solving. . .
The main line of the movie: JESS drove his son to the dock and was invited to go out to sea with his friend GREG. Unfortunately, there was an accident on the way, and both mother and son died. However, JESS, who became a ghost, did not leave and cheated death, and still went out to sea alone. As a result, a dialogue that appeared in the film was fulfilled: In Greek mythology, eros, who cheated death, was punished, and he pushed a boulder up the hill and watched it roll down every day, and circulated every day. JESS, like Mr. eros, was punished by a painful cycle.
This main line is clear, and there is no doubt about it. The key question arises: What kind of cycle did JESS go through? I thought it was just a big cycle with two small cycles. After boarding the ship, JESS saw the first batch of people die, and then saved the second batch of people who boarded the ship (failed). After understanding everything, he killed the third batch of people (except the third batch of himself), and then he was thrown into the sea by the third batch of himself and returned home, becoming the first batch again. This is seen from JESS's first perspective in the order of movies. At first glance, this understanding seems reasonable, but as long as you push it step by step, you will find a big mistake. The fact is by no means so simple.
to understand this movie, we must first understand a question-how many JESS are there on the cruise ship? Let's answer according to the most time: three. They can be named as No.1: "JESS who just got on the boat", No.2: "JESS who wants to save his friends" and No.3: "JESS who knows everything", and the three JESS are constantly changing in this order, and the cruise ship always keeps the existence of three JESS dynamically, one going down and one coming up. The most important point is: this number 123 JESS is just a form, not fixed to three people. At a moment, when the 3 rd falls into the sea, the 2 nd becomes the 3 rd, the 1 ST becomes the 2 nd, and then the new 1 ST gets on board.
the second thing to understand is that there are actually two lines in this movie, one is a bright line and the other is a dark line. In fact, the film didn't even shoot a complete story of two lines. What we saw was all the bright lines and a part of the dark lines. The three JESS on board were actually composed of two lines, so it was not a simple 1-2-3-1 conversion, but the simultaneous conversion of A1-A2-A3 and B1-B2-B3. Please don't vomit blood yet. Let me analyze it first.
let's define these six JESS first.
A1: Ming Line, the one from the main perspective of the movie, boarded the boat, and his companions were killed by the hooded people with rifles.
A2: Ming Line, the one from the main point of view of the movie, pushed the hooded man into the sea on the deck after his companion was killed. When he saw a new group of people, he knew that a hooded man would shoot a friend in the theater and tried to save him, but failed.
A3: Bright Line, the one from the main perspective of the movie, understood everything after the failure, put on a hood and killed people in the theater with a rifle, and was finally pushed into the sea alive.
B1: Dark line. Knocked the headgear man to death on the deck. JESS saw him last from the main perspective.
B2: Dark line, which is the last one seen from the main perspective and pushes VIC onto the nail.
B3: Dark line, failed to shoot in the theater, then killed with a knife, and was finally knocked to death.
how did this happen? Let's start with the transformation of JESS on the 2 nd and 3 rd of the open line. After SALLY died on the top of the boat, A2 JESS saw a billboard on the top of the boat. A JESS knocked a hooded man to death with an iron bar and pushed him into the sea. The one who knocked was B1 JESS, and the one who died was B3. At this time, a new group of people arrived, and the one who came up was JESS A1, which is the group that our film developed our perspective according to the plot. Press pause to make it clear that A2 on the top of the ship saw this and understood everything, so when people die, they will start all over again. In order to go home to see their son, they have to kill everyone, and A2 becomes A3. B1 on the deck saw a new group of people coming up, B1 became B2, and then why it went is unknown. The film did not appear, but we can define it as a bystander. Cancel the pause and continue to go down. A3 comes to the theater armed to the teeth, shoots DYWNE and SALLY, but fails to pursue A1 and is pushed into the sea (see this A3 going into the sea later). At this time, A1 saw a new group of people coming on the deck. The JESS who came up was B1. A1 knew that there were gunmen in the theater and turned into A2 to save his companions. The bystander B2, who had been in the dark, understood everything and turned into B3 to kill people. He came to the theater armed to the teeth. As a result, A2 almost shot his head like in the movie, but failed to kill DYWNE and SALLY. (Where is B1 at this time? B1 is the JESS who met A2 with a gun in the restaurant. A2 is the rescuer at this time. She didn't understand that she wanted to kill her, so she didn't kill anyone. She just took the gun to fight with the headgear (B3), so B1 naturally ran away. ) After World War I, B3 failed to kill DYWNE and SALLY, so he tricked them into the room, cut his throat, killed DYWNE and stabbed SALLY, and SALLY escaped injured. A2 chased after seeing it and tried to save SALLY. Of course, SALLY thought it was B3 and ran away, and finally chased it to the top of the boat. SALLY was seriously injured and died. At this time, B3 was also chasing other people, and when he met B1 on the deck, he was unfortunately killed (note that he was killed by an iron bar, not pushed into the sea alive like A3). This process was seen by A2 at the top of the ship, and then the scene at the beginning of the analysis happened. That's what happens on the boat, so the cycle.
At this time, let's look at A3 who fell into the sea alive. A3 came home, and then, as seen in the main line of the movie, he killed himself at home with a hammer, took his son to the dock to find GREG, and had a car accident on the way. As the end of the movie tells us, A3 cheated death and went to the dock alone, becoming a new round of A1.
That's not all. There is another major problem, that is, there will always be only one A3 falling into the sea to circulate, but there is still one B3 to be knocked to death on board. Where did B1 come from? Without B1 supply, the dark line will be broken. Therefore, there is a reasonable explanation to improve this story: even B3 who was knocked to death will wake up on the beach after falling into the sea. This explanation is not far-fetched, just like JESS can go to the dock intact after the car accident. If death tortures you like this, can you still die? In addition, according to the time of occurrence, A3 should be converted to B1 when it wakes up and goes to the dock, and B3 will become A1. Why do you say that? First of all, if A3 changes to A1 and B3 changes to B1, the time is too late. You should know that JESS slept in the yacht for a few hours at sea, and was caught in a storm, and then the cruise ship finally appeared. How long does it take for a complete cycle, and there is not enough time to kill people on board. Secondly, when A2 was chasing the injured SALLY, she heard GREG's voice on the radio, which proved that GREG was in a storm with A1 who had not been on the cruise ship at this time, which further proved that this A1 was converted from B3 to the dock.
