First of all, what is special is the shaping of the characters. It can be said that there are no positive characters in the film, and all kinds of human ugliness are reflected in the first half of the film. Interestingly, the accident happened when Gao Jianzhu was on his way to attend his mother's funeral. The perpetrator, a policeman, tried every means to put the deceased's body in his mother's coffin in order to avoid responsibility. It can be said that this behavior is a powerful satire of the police industry. Of course, the behavior of other police officers has deepened the irony and criticism of this industry. In addition to this, it is worth mentioning that Gao Jianzhu's behavior violated the morals of society. He buried his head in pain at the funeral to cover up his inner uneasiness, but was regarded by everyone as a dutiful son, which caused the audience to reflect on morality. Seeing this scene, it made the audience feel chills. In order to exonerate themselves, even the deceased mother used it. As a son, he did not know how to abide by the most basic morality. But when the film reaches the second half, an even more shameful character appears, Officer Park, who smuggles drugs and kills people. In contrast with Officer Park, Go Gun-soo becomes the "decent character" in the film, because he ends up After subduing Police Officer Park, all this seems absurd, revealing social reality, and unknowingly triggering the audience's thinking, what kind of person is a good person? When was morality so lost?
In the whole film, there are many hints in the plot, such as the dog that appears many times in the film, it has witnessed all the truth, it appears three times in the film, and every time there is a turning point in the case, the dog is like a surveillance However, no matter how cunning people are, the truth will surface; what I also noticed is the lighting, in the title, high exposure is used, which is in line with the theme of the film and brings out the dark side of society; Gao Jianzhu placed the corpse in the corpse placement room. At that time, a green light appeared in the corridor, indicating that his actions would not be discovered, and in the corpse placement room, there was always a red light, explaining that his behavior was dangerous and his own inner tension; and In one scene, when Gao Jianzhu detonated Officer Park's car and sank it into the bottom of the lake, a group of eagles flew into the sky, explaining that Officer Park was not dead. Speaking of which, I inadvertently want to praise the expressiveness of the film.
Finally, I want to analyze the props of the film. Like the cross, it is a symbol of prayer and compassion, but in this film, it has indeed become an auxiliary tool for Gao Jianzhu’s crime, as well as Miner’s toys. For children, toys are able to What brings happiness is beautiful, but it has become a powerful tool for his father's crime, all of which seem absurd, even ridiculous. But it's these good ones that serve a powerful irony. Corruption and moral decay of society.
At the end of the film, Gao Jianzhu got the key and entered the vault and closed the door, and the film stopped abruptly in the pile of banknotes. This points out the title and goes to the end. But there is no exit at the end.
