The core of the cool film under the realism skin

A standard cool film. Indian movies have always had strong drama conflicts, but the plot logic of this film has so many loopholes that it explodes. From a certain perspective, it is more like a physical violation of the middle class by the bottom, and it is also the existence of gender crushing the class from the law.

1. The middle-class family faces a weak bottom, a violent bottom, and two idiot noble boys when their daughters are gang-raped. They are reduced to prisoners of the unfair judicial system shown in the film only because of their inner integrity. The judicial system Is it vacuuming the identity of the middle-class family? Will the middle-class group use the law to defend their rights, so much aphasia?

2. India’s judicial system is too bad. A girl fell into a pool when her body was humiliated. Then who was the person who abused her? If it wasn't those 4 people, then who was the murderer? The film directly ignores the discussion on this issue, and aims to criticize the invalidity and bias of the law.

3. From this level, what is the emotional motivation of the heroine's golden finger role, that detective? Wouldn't it just because you have a daughter of the same age give him such a great emotional motivation? You might as well set up someone who once had a daughter who was raped to death, and then always wanted to appeal for women's rights. The good guys are too pure and the bad guys are too bad. These are the flaws in the drama of this film.

4. The judicial policeman, the physique machine, why always look like a bitter and violent person? He clearly didn't do anything but the threats were all good people. In the last highlight, he handed the pistol to the heroine, then you Can your filming method be unified with the expression of your drama? The photographic techniques used for this Wei Guangzheng image are all handsome, evil, heroic, and helpless expressions, but he is too weak and useless in the drama, and the strong sense of violation does not match the film's temperament. .

Of course, there are advantages.

1. The director dared to regard the judicial system as the biggest opposition. The imperfection and lack of comprehensive Indian law, even standing from the perspective of the elite middle class, is really commendable. She emphasized that the problem of lack of women's right to speak has surpassed the problem of class contradiction itself. Of course, a large part of the credit is attributed to this female director.

2. The photography and lighting are good, especially to guide the American Hollywood film consciousness. The main point of the last sentence, "It will happen in the future, what have you done?" The main point of the inscription is indeed to cause Indian justice to think deeply.

However, such an industry 1.0 movie ends with the punishment of the bad guys and the reconciliation of mother and daughter. It has never been as cold and serious as the three major revenge films in Europe. Compared to films like "Three Billboards" and "Coming Out of Nowhere", the plots are densely weaved, logically precise, and permeating philosophical humanity, they are just cool films.

    Adapted from the world-renowned Indian black bus case, which has been filmed by BBC and Netflix, the reason for the attention is related to the deep-rooted gender inequality in India. How bad is the environment? It took six years for the original case to be finally closed. In 2016, there were nearly 40,000 sexual assault cases in India, which is equivalent to 100 tragedies every day. Netflix documentaries have also been banned in India. So first of all, in terms of subject matter, this movie is amazing. As a film with strong commercial attributes, the adaptation of the story simply went to the other extreme - using violence to overcome violence. At the legal level, this road is not advisable, but in the Indian context, it will only be another kind of sadness. It's not "Confession", nor is it a cool movie. What adds to the tragedy of fate is that the actor who completed the revenge mother, the Bollywood goddess Shiri Daiyu, died unexpectedly after filming this movie, and she died very strangely...
