Poverty does not necessarily make people distorted, without love, it must make people distorted

This movie made me shed tears of fear. Unlike war movies, which show the evil of human nature, the people in war movies are fighting for the living space, the right to survive, and the bloody cruelty.

And this movie is more terrifying than war movies. It is the greed of human beings. Everyone can survive, and there is no shortage of resources, but it is not enough. Human desire is a bottomless pit. Everyone in this world is ugly because of money, Paul My friend, Paul's grandfather (the richest man in the world), police officers, wealthy businessmen, kidnappers, newspapers, everyone ignores life, hurts each other, only has money in their eyes, and is extremely indifferent.

Only Paul's mother, Paul's grandpa's assistant, and the kidnapper Fifty. These three people care about Paul and have human feelings. Fifty and Paul's assistant were also people who lived for profit at first. One was forced to make a living, the other was for career, but one of them was changed by Paul, and the other was changed by Paul's mother.

Human nature can't stand the test. Before finding his father, Paul's father felt that he loved his family very much. After possessing great wealth, he was swallowed up by sexual desire, laziness, and greed for pleasure, and his son's life finally became his bargaining chip. .
