Di White is the representative of "black eat black", and Jie Qi is both the police and the umbrella of the evil forces. The underworld also has its "law" and "justice", whether it is the agreement in the old city, or the rights of prostitutes (male gangs and prostitutes are opposing forces in the movie), Dewright is a combination of gentleman and violence, in order to help prostitutes We fought against the underworld forces.
The excitement of this paragraph lies in the conversation between Dewright's head and Dewright when Dewright deals with Jackie's corpse.
Compared to De White, Hardigan played by Bruce Willis is completely the incarnation of justice, but Hardigan’s justice is carried out completely in accordance with legal procedures, so it appears fragile and weak (reflecting the director’s attitude towards the law) . When Hardigan violently solved the yellow bastard, I clapped and cheered. Unexpectedly, he chose to commit suicide and took care of "the old man died and the little girl was rescued".
The excitement of this passage was the monologues of various characters when Hardigan was critically hospitalized. The brilliance and ugliness of human nature, and the darkness of power politics are manifested incisively and vividly.
In fact, Hardigan’s death was a surrender to the evil forces, a surrender to the powerful political forces hidden behind the scenes of the whole movie.
Ma Fu (played by Mickilock) makes me excited. He is a representative of justice, in order to avenge his lover, dare to fight against all forces, including the cardinal behind the scenes. Ma Fu is the real display of violent aesthetics, extremely cruel to the wicked, and full of love for his lover and mother.
The most exciting part of this section is the festival where Ma Fu killed the Four-Eyed Boy and the Cardinal. There is a detail in the film-in the heavy rain, Ma Fu shot at the statue of God after an inner struggle. The dialogue is-he began to doubt God (he learned from the four-eyed boy that the cardinal was behind the scenes).
The cardinal is the brother of a congressman (Hadigan's scene, the father of Huang Bastard), a representative of religion and a representative of politics (or political power), and the biggest behind-the-scenes evil force in the movie; the four-eyed boy It is a symbol of a cult, which relies on cannibalism to lift the soul to heaven (some people say that it is a collection of human nature and evil); while parliamentarians are spokespersons of ugly politics, high-sounding, but they are the greatest enemies of justice messengers.
Hardigan was too persistent and righteous, so he died; Ma Fu was too persistent and emotional, so he also died; Dewright wandered between black and white, both clinging to justice, but not overly clinging (he does not directly fight politics , Killed the police and dealt with it secretly) He was obsessed with feelings, but not too obsessive (the prostitutes knew him and several of them had one leg-sweat one), so in the end he survived.
The evil forces depend on the police, the police depend on politics, politics depend on religion (at least in the play), and the justice side is dependent on love—friends' love (De White and prostitutes)—father and daughter's love (Hadigan and Nan Greek)-the love of lovers (Mafu and Gotti).
So I think this film is showing that politics is the root of all evil, and love is our only weapon to maintain justice. Of course-the means must be violence, and violence is used!
