The root of evil

Keanu Reeves is still very suitable for this kind of role, without too much expression, as long as he can be cool and cut people. Because I have watched too many similar Hong Kong movies, I know the routines of this kind of police internal FB movies at a glance. A heroic policeman who is hateful and hateful, from a clue to the big boss. If there is anything new, it is the unique complex of racial discrimination in American society. Whether it is under the guise of the law or private grievances, racial issues are at the core of it. White people are superior, and people of color have low self-esteem and insecurity. This is the root of all crimes. The ending of the film is also quite intriguing. After Cao Cao won the Guandu War, he burned the correspondence between his subordinates and Yuan Shao, and at the end of the film, no one was held accountable for the crimes of those high-ranking officials. The so-called evil nemesis is just a tool. Good and evil, theoretically clear concepts, have now become sociological relativity. In this sense, Tom is no different from those of MARVEL Superhero. Pure sense of justice is very naive.
Sucre in PB plays a role in it, and the TV series is a familiar face, and the movie is king.

    Why did Keanu play the role of a fool?

    Compared with most action films, it has more connotations. Everything has a positive relationship. Black eating black also indicates that white eating is white. It's just because of the so-called opposition between justice and evil, and the power held by "justice", that the "justice" side may be darker than the evil side. Perhaps this is also the reason for the existence of male protagonists who are both good and evil. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw Dr. HOUSE at the beginning of the film. Later, Chris Evans, who was as pink as ever, came out, which surprised me again. It's a pity that Chris' character has been short-lived since the first appearance. When this little follower followed Keanu on adventures again and again, I expected something bad. Keanu, an old man, would definitely kill Chris. as expected. But while sad, thinking of Chirs facing Keanu, his face is innocent and puzzled.
