not as complicated as imagined

Before watching the movie, I read a report
about said that the clues of the movie are complicated and need to use my brain, but
after watching it, I didn’t feel that the damage to my brain cells
made me screw up. Instead, it was the final ending that counted nothing.
The contradictions before the ending have been Tangled between steven and his female secretary of the security company and the conflict between carl and steven is just a small snack before the meal,
thinking that the long story of the film will reveal the money-sucking conspiracy of security company for steven to clear up the scandal The negative effect or the news exploration that triggered another round of updates.
What I didn’t expect was that the gun ended up hitting steven, and even the proposition that finally triggered was thinking about friendship. Please, this is too old-fashioned and abrupt, right? The director wanted to give us something new, but besides the mistake, it wasn't a new bottle of wine, not even the bottle was changed .
The final scene was actually the two partners hurriedly memorizing the film.

The denial is that the plot is interlocking, the rhythm is tight, the segments are connected, the language is humorous and humorous (but the dubbing of the Mandarin version is really disgusting) I feel very exciting, but after thinking about it, there are still many weak links in the plot, but it is only driven by the fast pace and complex clues It's as anticlimactic
as eavesdropping. The plot of Hong Kong films is more delicate, while Hollywood films are not good at sensationalism.

Don't be fooled by superficial phenomena and profound propositions. It's not as complicated as we think.

    The plot has ups and downs, the structure is a bit messy, and the ending is not fun.
