too many loopholes in the story.
For example
, the performance of the epileptic son lacks the persuasiveness of the character's character.
Although we have seen and heard that he is impotent, homosexual and neurotic, he loves the children in his family, he is afraid of his terrifying father, but at the same time we know that he is cruel. Corpses were spit on insults. (These things directly remind me of his role in "The Covenant of the Wolf Race", but I always think that he is more suitable for the "Taibao Code" movie with a black and cold appearance.) He was hesitant and struggling with the baby in the end, Still too far-fetched, too much. The ending should be rewritten.
Another example is that things have come to this stage, and without seeing the intervention of the London police, the heroine actually ran to the hotel to tell the terrifying old man that the baby was his flesh and blood. She knew the origin of the baby. Her motive for doing this was What? Let the old beast lead the baby back? Persuade the old man to carry the baby to do Fa? Listen to the old man's confession? Just because the heroine has had a miscarriage and can't stand this kind of stimulation? Or are immigrants afraid and not used to relying on the police? Because we did not see the film showing the foreshadowing of the Russian gang to put pressure on the local residents, only the male protagonist verbally persuaded the female protagonist. But since he learned of the existence of the diary, the terrifying old man took the initiative to express his concern about calling the police. In fact, in the end, the undercover actor still sent the old man to prison, and the process was very simple. By the way, he set up a puppet boss to continue his undercover career. The heroine can also handle it by going to the police. The film attempts to describe a rigorously structured, vicious, terrifying and mysterious London underground Russian gang, but unfortunately, it fails. We only see a terrifying old man and several elders who have oral exams and tattoos to accept the male protagonist's admission ceremony, and it is still the need for conspiracy. But through the dialogue of the old man with the haircut, we can still feel that this old man is very powerful. He said, I am afraid of those soldiers, and even more afraid of you. What's even more funny is that the male protagonist can send away a person who is ordered to kill, but the seemingly powerful gangster doesn't know that there is no post-mortem verification procedure? It is estimated that real Russian gangsters in real life will be very angry when they see this thing.
One thing is for sure, the
theme of the movie is healthy, which is very important.
Second, the male lead actor is very malleable.
Third , the soundtrack is very delicate.
As for the sudden violent scenes of slitting the throat, this is the director's historical style. If you know it, it will be fine.
In short, I should borrow a DVD to watch this kind of third-rate movie. , should not buy.
