I think the best part of this movie is a few confrontations between the two Roberts. Robert Downey Jr. has acted in a series of commercial blockbusters in recent years. Some people have begun to question his acting skills are not as good as some rookie actors. Although this film is not as influential as those films, it really has to prove that the amazing talent of that year is still acting. Durva is worthy of being an old actor, a real actor, and his performance can be said to be better than Downey. No matter which scene or character he is facing in the play, he has shown a considerable amount of acting skills - an old judge who was trapped in the aftermath of chemotherapy but tried his best to maintain his dignity, a cold but soft father, a Affectionate husband. On the other hand, Downey didn't feel too down when he played against Durva, but in some group scenes, I don't think his performance was that good.
There is nothing particularly new in this story. The father's involvement in the murder case and the son's defense is a good blueprint, but the director's main focus is obviously on the conflict and reconciliation of the father-son relationship. A rebellious son who yearns for his father's approval, A loving but harsh father is cliché to be honest, but the performances of the two leading actors are vivid enough to make the story true and moving. Three of them were very impressive after reading them.
The first part is when the father vomits and even becomes incontinent in the middle of the night, and the son comes to take care of him and clean his body. In the second segment, Baofengtian's family was watching the video in the basement. The father and son had a conflict again, and they had a big fight in the kitchen. In that segment, the tone of the two people's tone, lines were superimposed and conflicted, and their movements and movements were all perfect. The last paragraph is when the son asked the father why he gave the victim a light sentence in the court. Only then did we understand that the father "hated" the son and there was a deeper reason. If the depiction of the confrontation inside and outside the courtroom is more abundant, and the father-son relationship and the liberation of the court-related plots are digested, the viewability of this drama will have a lot of room for improvement, so the last court scene is like this. impressive.
