In the Name of the Father movie review

This film is well done. The protagonist is a gangster who was arrested by the police and forced to be a scapegoat in a London bombing incident. Then, his father and aunt's family were all arrested and used as scapegoats, which lasted fifteen years. He gave up on himself from the beginning, and then grew up and sensible, especially after the death of his father, he became mature (some people are not mature even when they are old). Father's love is really great. After 15 years of his life in prison, he really understood his father's love for him. His father did not complain about any wrongdoing he did. letter, but the son has long given up the courage to appeal and rehabilitate. At the end of the film, I was also deeply moved, this son is really a little angry about his misfortune, and he is undisputed! Fortunately it was finally released. The small mistakes made by the male protagonist when he was young have paid such a huge price. This is probably also called, if you don't die, you won't die. Many bear children do not listen to their parents' teachings and look down on their parents, but after causing trouble outside, the bears appear. Desperate, scared, overwhelmed, and blaming the parents for it all. In addition, the male protagonist performed very well, his hippie, cynical, scared, desperate, and self-righteous. Personal score 4.8 points.
