The inevitable melting pot

In a deserted industrial town in the United States, the elder brother who inherited his father’s business was a steel factory worker, the younger brother was a veteran who had been repeatedly drafted to Iraq four times, and an old father who was suffering from an occupational disease lying in a hospital bed waiting to die. Life is boring, my brother always accepts everything in life with a normal mentality, fortunately there is a decent girlfriend by his side. Unexpectedly, the unsatisfactory state also accidentally encountered a drunk driving accident, and his brother, who could not pay bail, was imprisoned for four years. Four years later, when he was released from prison, the father died, the woman ran away, and the younger brother was brutally murdered. The policeman seeking help is not only a third party, but also shirks responsibility. The elder brother who only wanted food and clothing finally couldn't bear it, and went into battle personally, raising his shotgun at all costs, vowing to seek justice for his dead brother.
When the system cannot solve the people's lowest demands, the people can only instinctively resist the persecution they have suffered. The younger brother rebelled against reality with flesh and blood, and finally melted into the "melting pot", and the helpless brother could only pick up a shotgun and point at the villain. At this time, the line that my brother used to fight back against his brother before his death will reverberate in the hearts of the audience: "Fucking my life to this country, what the country has given me." Not only did they get nothing, but also lost. More.

    Quite dull, in our dignified American emperor, there is actually a no-care zone like New Jersey. I have been expecting Bell to come to the villain's hometown to make a mess, and I finally realized that this kind of thing is Statham's patent and has nothing to do with Bell.

    Crazy Heart directed the second film. From the two basically the same posters, it can be concluded that there is no progress, all narrative lines are ambiguous, a rough story, and a terrible drama.
