Watching domestic movies and TV shows, police uncles are always tall and stalwart, with unsmiling expressions, which I can't imagine at all. They are also emotionally lustful, and they are also in a hurry to urinate and excrement. They take off their clothes at night and talk to their wives. In this film, Cage was a police lieutenant full of professional ethics and a sense of civic justice when he was investigating the case of black people. He even pulled out the old lady's oxygen tube in order to press the little boy witness and was fired because of this. Positive sense of justice. However, he took drugs, promiscuous, gambling, and even abused the power of the police to set up a "fairy dance" to extort the clients of prostitutes' girlfriends and force football players to play match-fixing in order to take drugs and pay off gambling debts. It seems incredible that these two kinds of positive and negative personalities are combined in one person. In fact, think about ourselves, who has never felt this way? Sometimes I help the uncle of the migrant worker push the tricycle, and sometimes I viciously stick chewing gum on the bus seat. Sometimes I take the initiative to clean the sanitation of the corridor, and sometimes I throw the trash out of the window when there is a trash can beside me.
Originally thought that the whole film would end with Cage's fall, but when it came to a twist at the end, "Oye Man" licked his face to convince Cage. The problem of going through the back door, which Qi promised the creditor but failed to do, was also solved in a confused way. Most importantly, the black family killing case that he had been investigating was unexpectedly solved because of Cage's collusion with the criminal. Cage was also reinstated and even promoted to a higher level. In short, everything suddenly got better, and it couldn't have been better. What about Cage himself? In fact, no good effort was made.
I saw a comment that the main purpose of this film is to educate us "no matter how bad life is, we must maintain an optimistic attitude and live a good life, and good luck will naturally come". I do not agree with the "central idea" style of the primary and secondary schools. Has Cage maintained an "optimistic attitude"? I don't think so, he will give up himself in the second half, but luck still comes. Maybe this movie just wants to say that things are impermanent and everything is fate.
