Small people persistently collect evidence to bring down a big company with one hand covering the sky. This kind of selection alone is awe-inspiring, the story is calm and restrained, there are not too many impassioned speeches and upright stern condemnations, but focuses on the boring protagonist. daily life and pain.

The harm and horror brought by chemically polluted rivers and animals is truly shocking. It is known that improper disposal of chemical waste will cause irreversible harm to people. Those victims pay the price, often in the form of deformed babies or cancer of their own. It is a heroic feat to be able to make human choices in the face of the right and the interests.

    The whole world is promoted by people with lofty ideals, but their achievements are obstructed and obliterated by the system and the community of interests again and again. Do you think that Robert is fighting against a company? He is fighting against a complete group that falsely claims to be benefiting all mankind. They don't care about people, they don't care about the earth, they don't care about retribution, they only care about interests, they advocate lies, they will never introspect, they always use their own The so-called contribution made to cover up those mistakes, and the bones under their feet will eventually be their retribution.

    The story is drawn very much like the director’s previous film, Safe and Sound (1995), and there are some moments of investigation in the opening moments. As the timeline lengthens, the procrastination like “Never Compromise” turns into a torture of belief that must be completed. In terms of monotony and repetition, the completion of the complete story is more dependent on the state of the characters. In the movies I watched this year, it can be compared to American Woman (2018). After the incident (the previous work was the case of her daughter's disappearance), each The performance of a reasonable continuation of the stage is very important, and the too weak character causes the second half of the color to switch to the role of Annie; for 8-C, non-stick pan and environmental protection, compare Streep's fate in Silkwood (1983), It can be seen that only one-sided emphasis is placed on the values ​​of personal effort, but there is no critical deep excavation of the event society;
