It’s not so much a drama film as it’s an ethical film that reflects human nature. Most of the people around me will support a certain character or spurn a certain character with righteous indignation, but I have never felt this way when I watch the film. It's all about looking forward to what's going to happen next each time, and sighing over the actions, choices, and even fates of the characters in the story. I think that's exactly what all the creators of the show are trying to convey. I prefer the core of the play to express the contradiction and discussion between the realization of one's self-worth and the so-called law, morality and justice.
Although the characters in the story have their own social roles and responsibilities, representing the righteous policeman, the criminal drug lord, the dedicated teacher, the idle drug addict and the nosy housewife, etc., but throughout the process, they all Wandering and entangled among legal principles, rationality, interests and self-worth: Hank, a good man who has been concentrating on handling the case at the end of the story, also disregarded the love between his brothers and sisters for so-called justice; the seemingly ruthless Gustavo, before taking revenge, also Two of his subordinates prepared reorganized blood bags that matched their blood types, and continued to use high remuneration to ensure the life of the subordinates' families who bought their own lives and endured prison life; warlt, who had been diligent all his life, entered under the compulsion of life. He went astray and lost himself for a time, leading to a series of deceit and even killing. Jesse, who had no skills and was even abandoned by his parents, tried his best to protect his beloved brother and lover, and was tortured for killing innocent people indiscriminately; The clean-obsessed business woman skyler also has to launder money for her husband and struggles with morality and reason. When you are about to come to a conclusion about a character, you have to worry about his or her situation. And either helpless or sigh. It's hard to tell who's the good guy in the story and who's the absolute villain, and even at the climax of the story, you're unknowingly drawn into their dimensions, and it's hard to tell right from wrong. Therefore, the whole play reveals the creator's intention to express human nature and ethics beyond the beauty and ugliness of the characters, right and wrong.
Just like the theme of a dance drama written and performed by a roommate who studied philosophy in Germany before, it is often difficult for people to judge the good and bad of others and even themselves, right from wrong. Only by experiencing it can you know the best self and the worst self, comfort those who compete between the best and the worst in their minds, and understand the real self. While watching the film, I have questioned many times that Warlt said to his wife that what he did was for the family, but at the end of the film, the author of the film finally confessed the implied lines through Walt's mouth: He did this for, for himself, only to make Poison made him feel - alive. When this sentence flashed on the screen, I suddenly felt a strong tumbling emotion in my heart, perhaps moved, perhaps relieved. All of this makes sense, because no matter if he is the desolate chemistry teacher who couldn't even take orders from his students, or the famous poison master who dominates the southwestern states, and then the last thing is exposed, no matter which one It doesn't matter whether the poor people with credit card arrears need financing from partners, or the drug lord who fills 55 gallon buckets with hundreds of millions of cash, or is penniless. You no longer need to feel sorry for his gains and losses, because what he really cares about is that he can produce blue methamphetamine with a purity of more than 99%, which no one can surpass in the end; Insist on leaving a million-dollar inheritance to his son. And the iconic Hassenburg's black top hat that appeared many times in the film is his spiritual pillar, his self-confidence label, and his cover. When he feels fear and cowardice, it seems that he can be invincible by wearing a hat. . All this is also what he wants to achieve across the legal and moral boundaries - self-worth.
