Generally speaking, the same type of films are similar in subject matter, character setting, audio-visual elements, including values. At the beginning of "The Chaser", the city was full of colorful nights, rainy alleys and dark tones, plus prostitutes and violence. The male mommy, clearly told the audience that this is a black crime film.

The suspense soon appeared, what did the seemingly gentle man do to the prostitutes, and what would happen to the male mother who loved prostitutes after finding out the murderer. So far, as a black crime type film, the story is still quite satisfactory, the compact narrative and details are perfectly stitched to reality, I believe it can hold the audience tightly. But when the plot progressed to the point that the male mum was a former member of the police special operations team, I was a little surprised that a policeman who turned into a pimp was actually the protagonist of this movie. This is something I have not seen before. passed. Of course, the back of the movie gave me a bigger surprise. Here I just sigh secretly that Korean movies are more free, and Chinese filmmakers can only envy, envy and hate.

The film is very commercial, the prostitutes are perverted and violent, the male protagonist basically starts a fight without saying a few words, and the camera will render these scenes, so, I think, the surviving prostitute will definitely escape, because she has another one. Seven-year-old daughter, such a perverted criminal will surely die miserably, the police chief who knows the law and violates the law will definitely be exposed and interrupted from his career, and then the male protagonist who is a pimp will definitely be inspired by the cute girl who is a big kid and has the courage to live again. .

So, when the perverted criminal is holding the hammer in the commissary, I don't worry about the dying mother whore, because I know what a "last minute rescue" is, and I can predict that, like many Hollywood movies, at the last moment, The policewoman following him will definitely push the door open to fight the pervert, and then the hero will come to the rescue. The director has already hinted at this to the audience in the previous few shots.

But, fuck, that hammer really went down, blood splattered all over the perverted face, and then the director used several upgrades to feature the criminal's face and the swinging hammer, and the blood splattered! ! ! Finally even gave a close-up of the prostitute's last expression before she died! ! !

I think the director should be smug behind the monitor that he froze everyone who thought they were familiar with genre narratives! The hostages in the crime films were killed by perverted criminals in this way. Does Nima mean that evil can overcome justice? ! At least gave justice the most embarrassing ridicule! As a film with such a strong commercial orientation, isn't it a joke at the box office for such an exaggerated provocation of the public's conservative values ​​(and the established values ​​of crime films)?

In the end, when the male protagonist and the pervert had a hand-to-hand battle, I started to get scared. Did the director really want the pervert to kill the male protagonist? That's too damn dark. Although I don't like the mediocrity of genre films, I really don't want cute girls to become orphans. Fortunately, the hero won in the end, and, when he held the pervert under him and raised the hammer, how much I wished that hammer would go down hard.
When the whole world is stupid and selfish, how much do we want individual violence to represent justice to solve problems.

It's a pity that at this time, the stupid police came and saved the pervert.

I have to say, this is an exciting and exciting film. It has the usual elements of genre films to attract audiences, and it also has a breakthrough to the genre. Although it still captures the criminals at the end, its dark shadow is too powerful. The whole movie The police inside are either stupid or greedy. The most tragic victim is the hero who retreats into the fire pit. The perverted killer is even a religious sculptor, who is called "very talented" by the priest.

The mayor of Seoul, who was supposed to be the executor of justice, was thrown with shit, and fled in a hurry when he saw the hero who subdued the criminal on his behalf. In the ward, the male protagonist took the orphan's hand, but the camera was pushed to the still rainy and dark world outside the window.
