Screenwriter is good

The title of the film looks very bloody. At first glance, the three words "The Mechanic" give people a feeling of a sci-fi film. After watching it and then looking at the Chinese title, you will feel the title of "The Mechanic". Really shit. In contrast, the name of 1972 Dragon Tiger Iron Gold Steel is better.
The screenwriter of the movie is good. I thought Arthur should be killed by Steve, because he killed his master, who is Steve's father Harry; but it turned out that he was alive and well, but Steve died, which means he came out sooner or later. Paying back doesn't hold for him (at least in the film). Arthur killed his boss to avenge his master Harry, but Harry's son Steve, who also avenged Harry, did not kill his master Arthur. There is no doubt that Arthur is a qualified killer compared to Steve, but Steve is much inferior to his father. The idea of ​​revenge filled his head, and Steve was finally defeated by himself.
Another point is that Steve, who was a child, never understood the painstaking efforts of his father, the reason why his father did not let him enter the industry; in the end, Steve also died in what he thought was a good industry.
The screenwriter of the whole film is good, but the content of the film is undoubtedly popular today when there is a lot of film copying, and there are not many two points to speak of.
