In-depth analysis and visualization of the working nature of couriers and riders

Ken Loach's filming of this theme is amazing, about how people's exhausted life and struggles tear apart families and destroy emotions, how tenderness becomes rude, and affection becomes hurt. If you feel tired and don’t love, if struggling makes you lose the strength to love, what’s the point of struggle? Regarding Ricky’s delivery of express delivery by various fines by the network, the injury is defined as self-employment. I even suspect that the director has read several hot searches in China, and the world is also hot and cold. After 7 months of express delivery, I owe the outlet more than one million yuan. 2. Ele.me. The 43-year-old deliveryman died suddenly while delivering the meal. The platform said that "there is no labor relationship, only humanitarian expenses", but no matter how touching the theme, how much tears, how empathetic the workers are, no matter how high the completion of the film is , how good the rhythm is, this film is still only a Hollywood commercial type film, the script is too Hollywood, too neat, too designed with conflicts, for me this is a fundamental flaw and a deduction point. Five points to deduct two points, recommend it. Ricky thought that the car key was taken by his son, which resulted in a huge loss of not being able to deliver the courier that day. The son beat up the rebellious son as soon as he talked back, and then turned it around. In fact, the well-behaved daughter hid it, a custom-made reverse design for the audience. ;

At the climax of the movie, Ricky was robbed of delivering a courier, covered with bruises and wounds. The plot and the audience need such a conflicting spectacle of a noisy climax, rather than the bland and profound tragedy of a realist ordinary courier;

Courier scanning guns are very expensive, empty bottles can hold urine, wives don’t scold people, etc. As soon as these appear, you can guess how to respond later. These standard Hollywood procedural plots are too mindless and lose their authorship.
