Where are we different?

Arnold's movements are less. But the ideological nature has improved. In fact, the movie is very meaningful. The most exciting thing is a comparison. The comparison between Arnold and the wolf family has very similar experiences, but the choices of the two are completely different. Among them, the most interesting part of the dialogue between the two is that the wolf asked: If we all have a reason to kill each other, what is different?
Arnold replied: I am different from you, I only kill you.
This passage seems simple, and it is indeed the core of the whole movie's discussion: can the killing of revenge be unscrupulous? If it can, all revenge will be terrorist, it's just that the official version or the private version is different. If not, what can be left.
In fact, the film has secretly pointed out that the two planes in the United States are no different from wild wolves. The only difference is Arnold. The wolf said that Arnold Naive was really right, otherwise Arnold would not bring the wolf's wife in, which would cause a chance of terrorist attack. But if Arnold is like a wild wolf, it doesn't matter if he causes collateral damage to others in order to retaliate. In this way, there is no difference between them in fact-because the wild wolf also joined the terrorist activities in this way.
So, for the sake of hope, the world does have to pay a price, even if the price seems so naive and ridiculous. Therefore, people with a benevolent heart must not laugh at their naivety and innocence. This is what Confucius said, "A gentleman can be deceived, but he can't be disregarded." At the end of the film, Arnold accepts the child, which is a manifestation of his refusal to indirectly hurt. . No matter how idealistic and wishful thinking this may seem, what is left of mankind without this? Isn't it all versions of terrorism that do not distinguish between right and wrong and kill innocent people indiscriminately?

    At the end, I shot again. The motorcycles were all blown up to pieces, but the two people riding on the car were fine. In the end, can’t it end without a hand-to-hand fight?
