Army of dead review
ARMY OF THE DEAD:- the story of greed and cynic
The army of dead provide a great insight that life is more worthwhile than any possession. This film has great relevance especially during this point in time of covid. The movie exhibits a vivid resemblance of man's intense greed to attain possession even by risking one's own lives.
As the zombie virus rapidly spread from one person to another, turning people ferocious. The protagonist, Scott Ward and his peers managed to slip under the army protection camp, where they had to live under compulsion. Distressed from the compulsion at the camp and greed towards money enforced them to undertake a mission to heist a casino at zombie terrain. In the climax of the film even the protagonist who showed a mad fad towards money fails in the latter mission and succumbs to death.
Similarly in this aeon of the epidemic in India, we can see people both local masses and their leaders defying and derogating covid protocols for selfish needs. The real propaganda leading to these defiances is to procure social, economical and political advantage for some vicious individuals. Precisely speaking for the cynical gain of parties and affluent companies.
Let the issue be political, social or economical such defiance cannot be justified. The people also play a pivotal role in covid super spread, the abrupt lockdowns without prior planning left citizens to fend themselves, mainly the daily wagers. Workers who face economic scarcity goes from house to house in their native places in search of employment during the lockdown, therefore, cumulating some to the spread. Such people should be abstained by providing them with monthly rations likewise in Kerala.
To ensure political survival, some religiously rooted parties conducted colossal religious congregation due to which the aftermath was super spread. Mass rallies, again for cynical party gains took the life of many faithful party supporters. Particularly some industrialists have published fake news like in the case of cigarettes companies, they claimed that smoking reduced severe covid symptom which was more or less a criminal offence of falsification.
In the case of Belgium post-lockdown period showed a high rise of covid cases. The Belgium prime minister denounced the selfish action of its citizens leading to a spike in the cases. Similarly in the case of the US where the President itself hold a lions share of responsibility in the spread as he denounced the mask usage. Combined with US citizens stigmatise and defy rules and regulations to conduct parties and to continue free mobility. The UK has a somewhat similar story to tell large people gathering parties were condemned by the different official authority. This eventually led to a second term lockdown in the UK.
When home quarantine stigma forged by uneducated mostly by Indians, the covid patients are left to bereft, these patients often find it hard to get food and essential medical supplies. Whereupon they are forced to go out of the house and buy their own.
The same tents of selfishness are exhibited at a marriage held in mid-air on spice jet. This is a clear example that blatantly shows how people hesitate to leave their comfort luxury zone and forgets collective responsibility towards society.
Even this far out many still refuse to abide by covid protocols enunciated by respective authorities of different countries. The COVID-19 situation in India has escalated within the past few months where infections have continued to soar. However, those that are infected and are developing serious symptoms are finding it extremely difficult to acquire a single bed, compounded by shortages of oxygen, ventilators and supplies of life-saving medicines. shrouded bodies are all around you if you still cannot apprehend the perilous situation and continue to violate rules for cynical desires. Then your fate will be the same as the Scott Ward.
Governments, corporations and other institutions must accept their share of responsibility too, understanding the fact that this is a situation where expeditions are the most effective against our enemy. The best possible way in these epidemic days is to keep you alive, to attain it, leave unnecessary things behind and focus on the lucrative outcome once you are still alive after the pandemic. You can reinstate all the loss but remember not life.
