can only remember one title, it's called "Illegal Sanctions", which tells the story of a happy family of 4 who is suddenly brutally murdered by an inexplicable hooligan. Middle class, he believes in law and justice, but lawyers and police tell him "Forget it"! In order to avenge his young son, he "declared war" on those hooligans by himself. He wanted to regain his trust and dependence on justice. Unfortunately, in exchange, the family was ruined, while the friends of justice and the judges of the law were Stand on the sidelines, even mocking. At the end of the story, the master finally avenged his son, but I guess what he can never recover is his trust in society and his reliance on justice...
It's strange, during that time, I watched a lot of American movies in a row, and I actually It's all the same theme, that is, when some people encounter crimes, the so-called justice, law, police, etc., not only do not help to achieve justice, but they turn a blind eye or even become an accomplice to the crime, and these people who are full of love for life , had to fight against the huge criminal forces alone. In "Illegal Sanctions", a gang member was so arrogant that he broke into the male host's high-end office and shouted loudly to destroy his whole family, and he did it that night, but the police who defended justice said it was a joke, After everyone's family was overthrown, the police bravely rushed into the scene full of corpses, and then blamed the male host for "an explanation", which led to the destruction of the whole family! Then he repeatedly emphasized in the ear of the male host, "You don't listen to us, it's good now, the whole family is dead, why are you provoking the underworld? We don't dare to touch, what are you pretending to be!"
After watching these films, I think this is by no means a film that simply promotes personal heroism. I have come to two conclusions:
First, American society is sick, and
most of the films are from 2007 and 2008. Realistic themes reflect some real American social conditions. The director or screenwriter wants to tell the world that American society is sick, and it is not serious. Violence is rampant, justice is difficult to achieve, the judicial system cannot guarantee personal safety, and the law cannot be trusted... I remember when I was in college, the famous "Simpson case" occurred in the United States. Openly fleeing, and finally acquitted because the evidence is invalid! The reason for the invalidity of the evidence turned out to be that the police did not obtain a search permit when they searched the crime scene! This seems to be the pursuit of justice and the protection of individual rights. Isn't it just using the dignity of the law to defend the crimes of the criminals! And the few American films I watched, almost all of them were stories that reflected such a similar plot. Those who suffered misfortune had to use "illegal" means to protect their dignity and to uphold justice that could not be recognized! Isn't this a great sadness? ! The United States, known as the world's most powerful country and the pioneer of democracy, is like this?
2. Advocating "human rights" and "revolution of thinking" in other countries
Hehe, don't think I'm a "Cultural Revolution thinker", I consider myself a very open-minded person. But what I want to say is that Western countries represented by the United States have never stopped "peaceful evolution" and "mind penetration" in China and other third world countries, but now they have changed their name to "Orange Revolution". I also had to use the Chinese "heart of a villain" to measure the "gentleman's belly" of American directors. There are 5 elements that these films promote: 1. The government cannot be trusted; 2. The law cannot be trusted; 3. The police cannot be trusted; 4. Justice cannot be trusted; 5. Violence is feasible! It seems to be talking about the United States, but most viewers may say: Ah, how democratic and self-critical the United States is, what about our country? ...Obviously, the U.S. government will definitely not want its public to distrust them, let alone use violence to solve the problems they encounter. They may not tell the public to "trust the organization", but they will. Saying "IN GOD WE TRUST", in this case, what is the purpose of Americans making these films? I have to wonder, are these movies for Americans in the end? Or from a third world country? !
You can refer to an article I wrote before called "The Central Propaganda Department of the United States". It is an inspirational film that promotes the spirit of the United States and educates Americans to be patriotic. However, the films I am watching now promote the use of violence. For justice, I can't help but wonder, who is the investor in these films, and is it the "Central Propaganda Department of the United States"?
Now there is a popular saying, "Chinese people have no religious beliefs." Let me tell you, it's not just popular now. "Chinese people have no religious beliefs" became popular in Western society after Western missionaries entered China in the early years. Known as the rotten old monster of the East, Mr. Gu Hongming with pigtails once wrote an English book to refute this view. Unfortunately, most Chinese people have not read the English book, but they believe that Gu Hongming is a pedantic, The old and the old.
In connection with some recent violent incidents in China, I am thinking that the responsibility of the government is inevitable, but have those who simply and blindly criticize our government ever thought about whether there may be some nuisance behind these incidents? Are invisible and invisible "push hands" playing a terrifying role? "who are they? What are "they" going to do? Please note that the government is "our", the country is "us", and everything is for "us" to bear.
SO, TRUST IN WHAT?
