      Lurker

      Bob Messer is a customs officer who often works undercover to catch drug traffickers. Although he is eligible to retire with full benefits, he does not hesitate to commit personal risks in order to solve the criminal group money laundering case. He and his colleague Emile Afreou changed their names and surnames, posing as wealthy businessmen who can provide money laundering services, and through the introduction of informants, they met some business people who needed this service. After layers...

      The film critic, The Infiltrator, is one man to one man again

      Biographical movies have a real and historical taste, and are always so heat-resistant and intriguing. I watched "Free state of Jones" some time ago, and today I watched "The Infiltrator" again. Although the theme and background are very different, the ins and outs of the original story are "the same line", so it is easy to capture the audience again. The heart has become a conversational resource for everyone after dinner.

      This big movie directed by Brad Furman (directing "Lincoln...

      Between good and evil

      I've seen his biopics before, and I was shocked. I think this is the one who is asking for life on the tip of a knife. Although I know the ending, I still see it very depressively and worry about the protagonist and his family.

      What I don't understand is why the actor still lives in his own home while he is undercover. Isn't he afraid of exposing his family's identity? Isn't he afraid of gang revenge?

      During the undercover period, he and his nervous partner drank, fight, and...

      The villain's handsome mess

      The plot is expected, after all, is it written based on facts? But it is a bit illogical to gain such trust in such a short period of time, and the description of the other villains is a bit too little. The undercover Lao Bai didn't know what he wanted to say during the running experience, so I didn't know why.

      Is the hero's wife so calm in the face of Xiao San? I'm a little dizzy, maybe the foreigner's worldview is not the same as ours

      What surprises me is that Benjamin Blatter...

      Love and Betrayal

      I don’t understand some places, but the plot is tightly connected, I don’t feel bored and slightly bloody. The deepest impression is the last scene where alcaino is out of danger and wears a white uniform to attend the male protagonist’s wedding, but finally finds himself betrayed by the male protagonist. The complicated eyes in the movie have always been very cold) Forgive me for the Appearance Association. I always think that alcaino is a good person. He is sincere and trusting to the male...
