I originally thought that the plot was still a mockery of the media’s demand for ratings and ignoring the moral bottom line, but I didn’t expect it to be sublimated to the point that in order to obtain precious news materials, it was possible to film the car accident of fellow freelance journalists, entering the murder scene before the police, deliberately waiting for more robbers. Call the police again in order to capture the most valuable news scene. Louis has not only broken through the bottom line of media ethics, he has even broken into the gray area of the law, which is a little bit beyond the bottom line of viewing. Of course, he was not a gentleman at the beginning, a thief who had not received any formal education and relied on stealing barbed wire and well covers, you can't expect him to have such lofty ideals and qualities. On that occasional night, he sensitively sniffed freelance journalists’ tips for making money, so he relied on stolen high-end mountain bikes in exchange for money, bought cheap cameras and radio stations that eavesdrop on police communications, and awkwardly started selling news materials. At first, he was clumsy and always came to the scene later than his competitors, but he was very sensitive and intuitive. He was able to take bloody, slightly stimulating close-up shots that could attract the audience. He also had a strong learning and adaptability ability. This is also a ridicule. The media that can attract attention are those fires, car accident scenes, robberies, and so on.
In the first half, I really thought it was an inspirational film. Watching the male protagonist gradually become familiar with the business and get paid, although I feel that using the camera directly at the wounded or even the dead is a great disrespect and may even affect the rescue at the scene. , But at least he won reasonable and legal remuneration and recruited partners for himself to take turns listening to police stations driving and navigating. Slowly, his business abilities are getting better and better. Through his sensitive ability to capture the lens, he even surpasses competitors who have been in the industry for several years. His car is also replaced by a brand new and cool red car, shooting and monitoring. The equipment is also fully updated. He invited female filmmakers out for dinner. Originally, I thought that the love story in the inspirational film was that the humble boy won the favor of the beauties of the upper class through his own struggle, but it turned out not to be that way at all. He understands the value of his news and the professional dilemma of female producers, and uses this as a threat to achieve deeper cooperation and sex with female producers. Yes, you read that right. The two of them are in the elegant environment of a very high-end restaurant. The director made these slightly perverted lines accompanied by the male protagonist's neurotic expression. Since then, the plot has changed sharply, completely. Deviated from the expected route of the audience.
Immediately thereafter, at the scene of the car accident, moving the body in order to take a wonderful picture, and then at the scene of the colleague's crash in order to catch the news, they used the camera at the injured face of the competitor. Ten thousand words of cursing my mother, I did not expect that I have been shooting other people's injured car accidents and fires, but finally it was my turn to be the subject of filming this time. The plot setting is really black and beautiful. Pecked his eyes, that kind of helpless resentment is unimaginable. After that, they surpassed the audience’s bottom line one after another, broke into the scene of the bloody robbery, took various bloody photos, calmly concealed the robber’s information with the police, traced the robber’s car address, and then called the police when the robber reached a crowded place. The cost of the death and four injuries was changed to the first-hand material of the police rush. The most shocking thing was that when the robber was about to be killed, he deliberately asked the disobedient assistant to shoot the robber who had not yet died. Your own bargaining partner.
Some movies will feel very warm when you watch them, some movies will be very moved when you watch them, and other movies you will feel cold when you watch them.
