It's not just the police who watch justice

Although the general perception is all based on this film, to be honest, I don't like the hypocrisy of the killer repeatedly confessing to the police, but from another perspective, this film is worth thinking about.
Chigago has a population of 50 million. People come and go in a hurry every day, but we have never noticed that there are so many invisible people around us. The lone woman who prints photos in the photo shop, the street woman who is begging on the street... In addition to paying attention to our family and friends, we are indifferent to the lives of other people. The TV station is only willing to put pictures of the woman about to be victimized on the TV for a few seconds. Most of the people around have a self-interested mentality, believing that criminal homicide is nothing more than a cat-and-mouse between the police and the murderer. Even when the police stopped every passer-by, people were unwilling to stop rushing and wasting every second of their lives on a passerby who was at stake. No matter how they asked, they only got a negative answer.
There are so many old people in Japan who are lonely and die at home, because they are actively or passively separated from this social life, and no one cares about them anymore.
But there is no need to be too disappointed in this society. Sometimes it’s just that no one takes the initiative to advocate, and people still lend a hand to what they can.
Weibo’s anti-abduction calls on people to start caring about children begging on the street, and thus rescued many poor children who were trapped in begging gangs.
I think it is not the police who only think but worry about what is watching justice. This should also be the heart of the general public. It is useless to complain about the incompetence of the social security police. If people are willing to contribute a little, then this society will change because of us.

The Watcher quotes

  • David Allen Griffin: Why did you turn away from me? Why was it so hard for you to accept? Cos you know I did it for you. You came so close to me that night. I remember clearly what I felt when I heard your footsteps falling behind me. Pride. I thought it would keep us together forever. For me it was our finest moment. I can still see the flames.
