The male protagonist Bruce is a high-level detective. In order to be promoted to be called a detective, he will do anything he can, but the key to this promotion is the case at the beginning of the movie. A Japanese was beaten to death on the street. Who can solve the case , who can successfully become a detective.
This movie is also known as a dirty detective. In order to solve the case, of course, to obtain the rights of the detective, the male protagonist coerced and lured to obtain clues, and also did other dirty things, sleeping with the wife of his colleague, sowing discord behind his back, and racial discrimination. , as a Scotsman, "We are such a unique and successful race." As a result, the speed of light slapped the face, and the camera directly crossed the three fat men standing on the street, smoking, drinking and eating junk food with empty eyes. What he does is also not his own successful race. Discrimination against women, discrimination against homosexuality. Like a pervert, he kept making harassing calls to his friend's wife.
All of this is to satisfy his inner desires, whether it is for power or beauty, these vain external things did not satisfy him, his heart is very empty, and he needs to see a psychiatrist regularly. I have nothing to do with myself, and deep down I think that as long as I get promoted to the position of inspector, I am the most perfect and can get everything he wants.
He regards life as a game, and his friends are the ideal contact targets of the game, constant game rules, because his friends are the richest. And he became a policeman because of the power in the hands of the police. He was favored by his superiors and handed over to him the murder of Japanese people and the constant harassment of his friend's wife, but he was thinking about his holiday travel plans, in order to satisfy his desires, and he thought he was promoted Inspector is a certainty, routine.
Deep in the male protagonist's heart, he was afraid of his childhood memories, the sudden hallucinations that frightened him, and taking medicine had no effect, the male protagonist used drugs to anesthetize himself.
There are two special scenes in the movie, the conversation between the male protagonist and the doctor in a white coat. At this time, it should be the conversation in the male protagonist's heart. He doesn't believe in anyone, even himself. When he heard this sentence, the male The Lord has some doubts. And the second time, it was the doctor in white coat's accusation against the male protagonist. At the same time, we also knew the shadow of the male protagonist's childhood, and the male protagonist avoided all this.
Of course, there are times when I am redeeming myself. When I see someone falling to the ground on the street, the male protagonist immediately rushed over, trying to save people, but he was unsuccessful. Looking at the young woman who lost her father, the male protagonist was no longer a "thinking". Instead, he looked at her in pain, as if he was no longer that lewd police officer. And the appearance of this woman in the back can make the male protagonist calm and sober up.
The whole point of the film is that the male protagonist wanted to be affirmed by others when he was a child, but it was his brother who was affirmed and praised. He became a shadow and was transparent to everyone, even his own father. He accidentally killed his brother. Since then, I have lived in guilt and regret, and my brother's figure appears from time to time. The departure of his wife and daughter has further deepened the rift in the male protagonist's spiritual world. Hallucinations occur frequently, and his head suddenly turns into the head of an animal. I was frightened by this point in the movie several times. I felt that it was a horror movie. Please be prepared when watching it.
In the second half of the film, the story of the male protagonist and the film is slowly revealed, schizophrenia. When the male protagonist puts on women's clothes, in his spiritual world, he has become another person, no longer that one. A policeman, but a seductive woman. When the male protagonist took off the wig on his head, he finally woke up and returned to his true self, no longer dirt.
In the last scene, the male protagonist who was about to commit suicide saw two figures at the door, rang the doorbell, and was redeemed spiritually. However, everything he committed had already happened, the body could not be redeemed, and the chair fell down.
In this film, you can see McAvoy's wonderful acting skills, which seem to release all his energy, sometimes sober, sometimes crazy, sometimes violent, fearful, fearful, arrogant, insidious, etc., it can be said that the dark side of human beings All the emotions of the film have been performed again, and they are in place and brilliant. It really shows the schizophrenic policeman in this film vividly and makes people not feel like dancing. I feel that the section of women's clothing is a bit flawed, or it may be that I can't accept such a big boss of women's clothing, and it's a bit hot. But this episode is crucial, to bring the male protagonist's spiritual world back to unity, no longer a division.
