India's version of high-IQ crime

163 minutes. Without a lot of time and perseverance, it is impossible to appreciate Indian movies at all.

After watching it, I can't help but be amazed, there is no huge singing and dancing scene in the film! Of course, this is the second, the idea of ​​the film is to make people look at Indian films with admiration. Of course, there are still songs, which are used as narration to express the psychological activities of the characters. I don't know if this is the usual style and presentation of Indian movies.

The first half was mediocre, but some patience was required. The rhythm of Indian movies is as lazy as Indian life. After the incident, you may blame the male protagonist for how he was addicted to movies and didn't go home all day. But it was only later that I discovered that these films were not for nothing. This is a crime of high IQ.

After seeing the second half, with the in-depth investigation, I thought of "Prison Break". There is a high-IQ prisoner Michael, and there must be a high-IQ policeman Mahone against him. This film is the same. The female police inspector deciphered the male protagonist's elaborate arrangements one by one, but a fourth-grade dropout became extremely thoughtful with the blessing of many movies. He has won many witnesses for himself with repeated "psychological manipulation". Of course, this is also for self-protection and justice.

The climax of the film is one after another, making people clench their fists from time to time. You don't know the moment when the children told the truth in a hurry. Worried about where their fate will go after they tell the truth. But the ending was surprising. The reversal came too suddenly. The pun at the end "The police station will protect us" also made the audience in the fog finally find the answer.

Spoiled children, inflated desires, deserved guilt, fear after failing for justice, the greed of the little man, the helplessness of being exploited, the face of the little man, the horror of power, selfish desires and justice, are vividly displayed.
