Idealized stories that only happen in movies

In the low-budget movie, there is not a single actor named by my name, but the story is very good and the explanation is very clear. The film is 90 minutes long, and there is hardly a single extra scene. The performances of the unknown actors are also very solid, especially Sean and his father, Sean's melancholy but firm eyes, and the confession of Sean's father on Sean's birthday, all impressed the audience deeply.
The only regret is that the story itself is too idealistic. I do not reject violence with violence, and I am very aware of the system, and the various loopholes and drawbacks under the program will allow criminals to escape punishment. However, a teenager almost completed the entire revenge process by himself, and was able to get out of his body. In order to make the process believable, the director obviously exerted too much force at the end, and the plot suddenly became a bit blunt. Female detective 180 The attitude of the degree turned too abruptly.
In addition, I estimate that different viewers will have different conclusions about the ending, whether Sean's father is the real murderer or not. Although the envelope is affixed with a red stamp, it is normal for him to be an accomplice to cover up his accomplice, especially How can a professional killer read a letter from the victim's son and suddenly find out in his conscience, and identify another murderer in order to seek forgiveness. Sean doesn't really need any answers from him, it's just a tactic of revenge. I'm sure most viewers, like me, agreed with Sean's judgment the moment he shot.
