little tricks

This film is a solo show of the male protagonist. Of course, Matthew also has the temperament of the golden age of Hollywood - one person can freely retract, control the overall situation, and even fight alone. So the leading man turns the movie into one of those traditional movies—in a dramatic conflict where the leading man single-handedly saves the room and everyone else is waiting to be rescued.

As for the story, it's actually not complicated, and even the writers themselves didn't want to discuss the conflict of morality and personal interests in depth. By all accounts, Matthew is a naked blood-sucking lawyer. But he kept his personal conscience, and he couldn't accept the fact that he had personally sent an innocent person to jail. So he fights the evil supporting actor Dragon Tiger - but that's what the plot needs. If he's down to the bottom, why should we come to see such a slut? The real world is bad enough anyway. And where does the dramatic conflict come from?

In the end, if I, like a producer, only have the money to hire a first-tier star or a few second-tier stars, then this film has made a perfect choice-choose a powerful Matthew, and then the supporting characters can't be named. The guy, so the audience left the stage with amazement and joy.

Anyway, I was clearly happy to leave at 12 that night and did something less grown-up - a walk by the river, then something more grown-up - don't get me wrong, clubbing until 4am. After that, there was a ten-minute tour of the casino and a tug-of-war with the bus. The drama after that. . Sorry I can't spoil it. . . Anyway, I'm looking forward to it
