》Death Tarot《It's like ”cursed tarot“+”Destiny Terminal“=》Death Tarot《, at least within the first half hour, someone will receive a lunch.While the characters are getting lunch one after another, it will also lead to the storyline of unlocking the cursed tarot cards and how to unlock the curse. This storyline may not be enough to support the richness of the story, but this movie makes it possible.I think it's worth appreciating that each character's death ceremony is related to the meaning of the tarot cards, sort of echoing the weaknesses and fate of each character.Although I know that the death methods of these characters are really very general and superficial compared to the real meaning of Tarot cards, but if you are really interested in this movie, then I would suggest that you canPay attention to the director's ingenuity in designing the death of each character. I think this is a very important aspect of this film.

Let’s first record the director’s design of these characters’ bento boxes in the Tarot of Death:

Do you dare to tell your fortune?”My grandma said tarot cards come from Satan%. Although the story structure of this movie is a bit like "Terminator", you can't escape the curse of fate. It feels like watching an entertainment movie where these people are killed one by one., but if you look at its plot design, I think the screenwriter and director are quite creative. What I especially like is the story design of this deck of tarot cards. I may have searched for some taboos about tarot cards (such as notCount cards for yourself (for example, the cards have card spirits) and magical phenomena (some people think that the card spirits tell them how to solve the cards, but some people feel that they are possessed by the illusion of being possessed after counting cards for others).》The Tarot of Death--This movie mentioned at the very beginning that my grandma said that the tarot cards came from Satan. I originally thought that this was the plot to design horror elements, so I said that, but II checked out out of curiosity and found out that some YouTubers who actually discuss Tarot as people have strange personality changes, and even give people a creepy and uncomfortable feeling (this is discussed on Dcard), which means that some people talk about Tarot.There may be demons hidden inside that may really exist.Of course, I don’t understand tarot cards at all, and I have never been told. Recently, I also watched some Korean dramas - Tarot: Seven Card Stories - some stories. I think that tarot cards are a divination thing, butIt is a tool. In fact, sometimes it seems like an unavoidable fate. However, sometimes it is not that the fate cannot be changed, but that one's fear is greater than the courage to change, and then one is trapped in a fate that cannot be changed.

In this movie, the writer and director did not overturn the entire ship by emphasizing that tarot cards are dangerous. What the writer and director wanted to attack was not the existence of tarot cards and astrology, let alone that tarot cards areWhat is dangerous is whether humans can accept the irony of their belief in divination and destiny. The plot says that the deck of cards used by these college students comes from ancient Hungary, because the nobles cannot accept the fate that their wives will die in childbirth.It is doomed, so he asks the astrologer to help his wife change her destiny through divination. This scene alone shows the human escape from fate and loss (after all, he will directly turn to the astrologer to change his destiny, which means that he does not want to try hard and use artificial means to change his destiny.method to change destiny), so he vented his unwillingness and responsibility on the astrologer's daughter. In the end, the astrologer became too resentful and cursed those who used this deck of cards to tell fortunes. Therefore, not every deck of cards is evil.and danger.

And - the Tarot of Death - the last thirty minutes of the plot are when Hailey is determined to solve this curse. Although the persistence of the ancient Hungarian aristocratic count seems to make people accept their fate, HaileyThey are different because they are people who should not be cursed with such a fate, so they must be cracked.Speaking of the ending of "Tarot of Death", I'm actually not very satisfied because Hailey and the others couldn't destroy the tarot cards, and the scene where the astrologer's grandma appeared was too short and not helpful at all (I always feltThe screenwriter and director should at least let this character bring the slightest advancement or help to the plot in this process), and get the lunch immediately. Although this section is for speed and excitement, the astrologer grandma cannot be the hero of this story when she goes., after all, this is the end of the play.

Hailey said:“We really can't change our destiny?What if we could?At least my mother never gave up”, - Tarot of Despair - In the ending, Hailey will survive because she doesn't want to succumb to fate yet (that is, at least the concept of not directly choosing to compromise and give up in the face of fate), of course the screenwriter wants her to become a hero to end all curses.Especially the last trick of using the cursed tarot card to end the resentful spirit was pretty good. She interpreted the astrologer’s pain of not wanting to be cured. After all, a person’s resentment and destiny will be reversed according to their own heart and energy.Yes, staying in the past cannot change the future. We humans will eventually be trapped by our inner emotions. I think tarot cards are like a reminder of life, letting you know what you have been avoiding.What is fragility? In the end, the “death card” can symbolize the end of something or a new beginning. Fate is not necessarily a curse. We can choose to let go and no longer let ourselves fall into the pain of persistence. This is how we can change our destiny.Way.

So to be honest, the biggest thing in common with the previous deaths of college students is that everyone actually has weaknesses in their hearts. Some people may be arrogant, some may escape, and some may be impulsive. I believe everyone’s character is due toSome kind of escape or some kind of strength generated by one's own weaknesses. I think this is why Tarot cards emphasize the magnetic field and power of the soul, because most of the things that can go in a positive direction are because of oneself.His heart is firm and calm, just like the Tarot of Destruction - at the end, Paxton said, how do we know it's all over?If you have strong faith in your heart that this is over, then it is over.And if you believe in your heart that this is not over yet, then the abyss will continue to follow you~

Although Paxton’s way of escaping from the elevator to break the curse is very silly, his existence is just to be funny. His survival gives the plot a big bug ~ I think it is also a big fatal flaw of this movie, because I alsoI wondered if he happened to be just in time for Hailey to break the curse, but judging from the timeline, when he started to see the Fool, Hailey and the others were still on the road, so it stands to reason that he should have been killed.
