As plain as water, is the water smelly?

The theme of the plot itself is very effective-the "anti" is the NFL-the top of the four major professional sports leagues in North America. In other words, what the protagonist does not only has to confront the wealthy leagues, but the most difficult thing is We must complete our own scientific research in an environment where the American people believe in "God first, football second" (the original words in the play). Isn't the protagonist familiar with what he did? That's right, it's similar to what the "Focus" column group "anti-" and even the protagonist's situation is in. The problem is that the film's deliberately flattening and blurring the thrilling process of this process ultimately severely reduced the film's excitement. Why is the film deliberately flat? In the whole film, you don’t experience the climax point, the slow rhythm, and even the soundtrack is depressing. This is also reflected in the words and deeds of the main characters in the play---like a gentleman, polite and rare. Emotional flashpoint.
This kind of subject matter can have two wonderful display points: the difficulty of obtaining evidence by the pros and the powerful counterattack of the opposing side. You can have both, or you can focus on one of them. The success of "Focus" lies in the director's good show to the audience how Zheng Fang has overcome difficulties and searched for evidence to find the truth of the matter. The film seems to have more points to discover in this regard, but they are all flattened, including the counterattack of the opposing NFL, so that the audience can't feel the pressure facing the protagonist. In fact, the adaptation can be bolder and more dramatic, including the "conspiracy" between the protagonist and his peers, the protagonist being investigated by the FBI, the protagonist's lover being followed, and the research being oppressed by the opposition, etc., all of which can be confronted with a fast-paced and contradictory. Bring people into the play to show the wonderful story. It's a pity that this film is like a glass of water. The director tells you to drink it patiently and savor it carefully. The question is who doesn't drink water often, does the water taste?
