Just finished watching "British Showdown", Jackie Chan is really old and strong.
It is difficult to understand the logic of the film without understanding the historical background between Britain and Ireland, the Vietnam War, and the deep hatred between Britain and Ireland.
In modern wars, many people are not purely local people fighting for their own country, but people from different countries participate in the same battlefield.
In the North-South Vietnam War, not only the United States and Vietnam participated in the war, but also Koreans, Laotians, Chinese and so on.
Guan Yuming let Sean go and asked him why Catholics would be loyal to Britain?
Sean said his allegiance is to his own Legion.
Like Guan Yuming, he is from Guangxi, a Vietnamese-Chinese special soldier, and his allegiance is not his own country. During the Vietnam War, he was fighting for the United States. So, a lot of the tactical skills he learned were trained by the CIA.
His family was also killed during the civil war in North and South Vietnam, and he later fled to England.
The war between Vietnam and the United States, there is a very famous photo, also won the Pulitzer Prize in 1973.
It's the one below.
During the epidemic, there was a famous saying, "A speck of dust from the times that falls on a person's head is a mountain."
Just like the sadness presented in this film, even if Guan Yuming avenged his daughter in the end, he also lost his last relative forever.
The purpose of revenge is nothing more than to seize the straw for survival after being born without love.
Jackie Chan's acting skills are still very good. A grief-stricken father plays very well, and the emotional restraint is very good.
