The complexity of the case lies in the split personality of the Spanish girl and the intertwined conflicts of legal reason encountered by the detective police officer.
What I like more about this film is that the film does not have a pre-determined standpoint of the simple, rude and stimulating stance of a traditional American blockbuster that triumphs with justice. In fact, the film does not specify a "just man". Hispanic gangsters, family concubines, police officers, gangsters, abused girls, and the wives of the dead police officers, each character has its own complex emotions and psychology. In the reality of law, justice, human desires, relationships, and all kinds of conflicts, everyone really reproduces their own personality.
The film combines a lot of chaotic facts through the opening "miracle"-a gentleman floating in the air. Pious beliefs, split personality, hallucinating miracles, police chasing justice, widows indulging in despair and desire, everyone’s pain, pursuit, and confusion, amidst the chaos of events, they finally return to reality In his life.
It seems that various phenomena and even numb people have got a reasonable reason. This film still involves a split personality-when a person's ability to withstand more than oneself-visual hallucinations-selective forgetting-pious belief-unconscious resolution. It even makes people feel that all arrangements are beyond the capabilities of human beings, but God is operating.
Here I think of a Buddhist scripture: "After thousands and thousands of calamities, the karma created will not die. When karma meets, the result will be self-sufficient." The operation of cause and effect transcends the consciousness of the human surface, and it looks like a big whole. Among the chaotic infinity, fairness and justice are regularly realized.
Another thing that people think of is that common people’s religion always uses shamanism to try to interpret some deep concepts. For example, Westerners generally like to associate the concepts of “God” and “Angel” with their own visual and auditory hallucinations. Which one is it? What's wrong, really needs to be discussed.
In short, it is indeed a thought-provoking film. I've always liked Brother Reeves.
