It's a pretty good movie. Factors such as omissions, violence, homosexuality, and swear words make it hopeless to be shown in Chinese theaters, but the idea of ​​the movie is still positive. In the last scene, the impulsive boy finally showed his weakness and cried like a child in his father's arms. The violent father finally embraced his child "Daddy is here".
The side of the film explains the reasons for the boy's violent factors. When he was 5 years old, he saw his father insulting his mother in the last scene; the boy said that he had no mother. And he once said that in jail, he wanted to see his father and express the impression that his father was like this, but he still made him love his father-which shows how bad his mother treated him-which also laid the foundation for this father-son relationship. Foreshadowing. The boy with nowhere to go did not live well in the foster home, he lacked love, he sinned.
The group (psychology, sociology) in the film is remarkable and has given the boy a change. Finally, the group members expressed concern for the boy and also planted hope for the follow-up of the film.
I didn't understand what role a male prison manager played. As for the ideas behind the team member’s leader, he sometimes nodded with the male prison manager, sometimes turned his face with him, and didn’t understand the intention of the screenwriter. Maybe it was because I didn’t know enough about the British prison system.
