Morality is gone, we will die too

We grew up in that traditional world, black and white, bad people are bad, good people are good, know the bottom line and principles.
We believe in justice, we believe in kindness, we believe in giving, we believe in promises.
However, after growing up, with the changes of the times, I suddenly found that "this river and lake is no longer suitable for us, because we are too nostalgic."
The world will continue to challenge our principles, our bottom line, and the traditional good things that we desire or desire in our hearts. What is considered worthwhile gradually becomes ridiculous.
When the black and white are reversed, the people who uphold this kind of morality and justice are blood-soaked, tragic and tragic.
To say that there are metaphors in this movie is a bit over the top, but from the beginning to the end, the female singer's eyes are also dimly visible to completely invisible at the end. Chow Yun-fat said in Lang Lang's sunny day that it was cloudy outside. Just like this world, today, where there is still a clear distinction between black and white, where is there any promise and morality.
"You could have gone, why didn't you go?"
"What I promised, I will do it."
Reminds me of the game of power, intrigue, all kinds of struggles, and John among the few normal people is unwilling to cheat Cersei, the archenemy, said: "I won't make an oath that I don't keep. Otherwise I'll be nothing like them" (similar words).
When did promises become worthless and become a tool that can be pawned for money and personal gain?
I don't know, but when I grew up, I found that all this has become popular and has become the norm.
In our life, we will face all kinds of betrayals, friends, lovers, partners. We have been hurt, betrayed, sacrificed, we are screaming in our hearts, we are covered with bullet holes, we are dragging mutilated bodies, we know that the times are over, and people's hearts have changed.
At the end of the movie, Fage, who was determined to make up for the female singer's eyes with corneas, was beaten to pieces, and the world finally fell into darkness.
This sadness will linger in my heart for days. I know, yes, that's what the world is like, having to pick up guns and fight bloody battles.
If morality disappears anyway, we will die too.

    read it twice. The gunfight version of Zhang Che, bloodletting in the white area, has a strong contrast. Xiaozhuang's cool color light and Jennie's warm color light, flash forward before killing Dawang, and Li Ying's cross cutting on Azhuang's sofa later developed to their peak in Hot Hands Detective. The interesting part of this film is the parallelism of the police and bandits, which is compared with the ruthlessness of Wang Hai's faction.

    "There is no story between them, no past, just a process of cherishing each other" has finally turned into a love movie.
