Review of The Marsh King’s Daughter

 

If Jacob thinks that abducting/kidnapping, or let’s even presume as what he stated, that Beth factually ran away with him; STILL, there’s a difference between getting stuck on an island like Blue Lagoon wherein the ‘girl also felt home and not abducted’; comparing to, what Jacob did with Beth on the Marsh island, who felt every single day being caged, chained; yet, for the love of her daughter, didn’t leave him! Difference!

More than Helena, it’s Beth who’s actually a true hero in the flick. And honestly, one thing people should understand that, any forceful relationship would neither last, and eventually leave destructive, dastardly effects!

There’re so many things in the Marsh island one can do. And it’s indeed a privilege in the modern times if you own such a big space; comparing to how people are living in the compact cities which are no less than a HUT!

And all of that because of what? To have a bloodline! That’s it! In few years/decades, it would all be Synthetic and Artificial, made in the Labs. And I know there’re many people who are having mindset alike Jacob about/for descendants! That if not the daughter/son, then the granddaughter/son. But all for what? Merely because you want to show to the World & to yourself, that you’ve DESCENDANTS! That’s it!

And as I’ve always mentioned, people around World who always talk about ‘in the name of FAMILY’ in modern times; behind the scenes, they are the worst enemies of the World. Just look at the corrupt people or even the terror sympathizers; they would always be talking about: by the family, for the family, and of the family. I think we’ve transformed the meaning of the term Family, with self-centered, obsession, greed, about the descendants/dynasts to rule! But how would someone be able to distinguish in few years/decades about synthetic beings and natural ones, as the Singularity would be achieved, in the age of multiple Species! Then, would such views even worth?

All said and done: a good watch! 😊
