Put right

I have to admit that the opening of the flashback misled me and made me think that Nascimento will have an unavoidable tragic ending, alone in a complete sense of powerlessness and the terrible mood of being isolated, overhead, abandoned, and manipulated. Towards death.
So, when the movie advanced to that night, I began to imagine, if this is a Hong Kong-made gangster movie, what kind of plot would change here? If the director is Liu Weiqiang or Wang Jing? There is no doubt that Nascimento, who has lost any status, will return to BOPE to seek help, and those brothers who have followed him in bloody battles have not forgotten the old loyalty, they will line up to bow to him, shouting " Big brother, you're back", "You will always be our big brother", and then fuck the guy and knock down the big brother's enemies one by one-what a bright and bloody ending.
To the complete surprise of the brothers, all this happened in the next three minutes.
That’s right, the "Elite Force 2" really reminded me of Hong Kong movies. Except for the typical young and Dangerous Bridge section above, it resembles Lao Du's two "Underworld" to some extent. Although the first chapter is already For example, the world is chaotic and demons are rampant, but they will always give a relatively not so bad option. There is always a power that can give some thoughts even though it can’t change the world, and this power must look hard and arrogant—" In "Underworld 1", Koo Tianle, who is about to "get into Tsuen Wan" at every turn and has to avenge his elder brother at the last minute, and Nascimento, the BOPE boss who never accepts corruption and takes bullets in "Elite Force", is such a role; The second chapter is turned into a dark place, once regarded as a hopeful role, but finds that he has actually been placed in an irretrievable situation. It has become a pawn that has been manipulated at will, and even has to stand in the same position with his opponents in the past. A line can be upright-has Gu Zai ever thought of cooperating with a messenger to bring down Ale, and Nascimento, has ever thought of fighting alongside Fraga? As for those enemies, for Gu Zai in "Peace is Valuable" or Nascimento in "Elite Force 2", Big D or drug dealers should obviously be considered cute, because they are simple enough and direct enough to never step down. It belongs to the scope of its own role, and a dark system that constantly operates, grows, and repairs itself is really terrifying.
Putting it right with such a system, a passionate youth like Matias is obviously not enough weight. From believing in the spirit of democracy in the air to turning to violence, he has always been too persistent and naive. In the final analysis, like the first film, the movie did not give you anything. A complete answer only provides a certain direction and possibility.
