The second brother recommended that this film is good, very good.
The content is very simple. An old man spends his whole life wandering outside, and doesn't care about his home. He patronizes himself in a dashing manner. When his family needs him, others can't help him, and neither can money help him. In the end, his family will stay away from him.
He found a good earning job as a driver to transport drugs. Because he was older than his age, no one doubted him. During the last shipment, his wife was seriously ill and died immediately. He chose to go back to spend the last moment with his wife and attend her funeral. In a hurry, his employer ordered him to be executed if he was found. When he was back on the highway again, he was caught.
He fully pleaded guilty in court and did not need a lawyer to defend him. He got the understanding of his family. In his words, nothing is as important as family. He regretted what he had done in his life and felt deeply indebted to his family. That's what this movie means.
I don't agree with his approach, because he is poor, he sells drugs? what logic? But in a capitalist society, money comes first. You can only be respected by others when you have money. This approach is understandable in capitalist countries.
The main purpose of the film is to advocate returning to the family, manage the family well, and fulfill the responsibilities of family members.
Running a family well is also an ability. I hope I can have this ability. At least I want to do my best.
My rating: 8.0
