      Would you sympathize with someone like him off-screen?

      Looking at it all the way, I can see that almost everyone except the male protagonist is stupid, retired policeman, stupid female policeman, stupid shop owner, madman, restaurant manager, waiter, and ex-wife. I think it is these indifferent people who make the poor man go. On the road of no return and hope that the male protagonist will start a happy life with his daughter in his arms. In the end, he retired from the policeman's solo, what he said. It really hurts to stand and talk without...

      The Tragedy of Aries

      Falling Down is an exemplary work on how to deal with this shitty world.

      Michael is somebody we all want to be, being able to say all the things that we want to say, do all the things that we all want to do; although it is exhilarating, it doesn't lead anywhere. In fact, this kind of inner anger will eventually destroy us.

      The old cop, however, is kind of a saint. He is able to navigate this shitty world with ease because he is full of humor, forgiveness and love toward...

      No one is born good-natured

      No one is naturally good-natured, and no one is immune to foul language, but they have the rationality to clench their fists and loosen them, and the self-cultivation to swallow when something comes to their mouths. Coke is too expensive, this is not a reason to smash the shelves; breakfast is not served after the time, this is not an excuse to fire a gun; because of traffic jams on the road, it is not a reason to abandon the car and block other people's roads... Finally He asked...

      forced out anger

      Through the protagonist all the way home, it shows the current situation and problems of American society in the 1990s... All of them have been approved... The color and sound are handled very well, and the constant noise and tinnitus surround, reflecting the protagonist's impending outbreak... The only drawback is that Why the protagonist is irritable and irritable, from the beginning to the end, I feel that this is a cynical laid-off worker's revenge for social injustice, but it does not...

      The desperation of an unemployed man, watching a bit of an anti-hero fan of "God Bless America" ​​in the middle, and then turning into a real police and gangster movie. The hero's last fall was very imposing. Looking at the cast list at the end of the film, I found that this character didn't even have a name, so it was called...

    Evaluation action

    If "Urban Heroes" were produced in the 1980s, it might become a favorite movie for the audience. When a white hero shoots drugs or takes revenge on a rapist, the audience will cheer for it. Joe Schumacher and his screenwriter Abby Ro Smith have yet to make a revenge movie, and when Douglas pulls the trigger, the structure of the movie cannot inspire cheers from the audience. Maybe this is feasible for ordinary audiences, but for more...
