"The ultimate goal of war is not to win a costly victory but to prepare for a lasting peace"
Henry (Jean Reno) is a professional killer. She lives a secluded life in a log cabin in the woods on the outskirts of Washington State. Suddenly one day, a young woman drove a small snowmobile in a dusty way. Because of the speeding overturn, she had a traffic accident, her leg was pierced by a branch, and the blood flow was in danger.
Henry, who was fishing nearby, heard the news and came to rescue the injured woman. Henry helped her heal the wound, and the woman gradually recovered. There must be a reason for this mysterious woman to appear in the icy and desolate forest at this time, and the old-fashioned Henry has long noticed that the visitor is not good.
10 months ago, Henry was still a working killer. His last mission was to assassinate a billionaire. After careful arrangements, Henry used ice bullets in the sauna center of the gym to kill the billionaire without knowing it, and fled the scene as if nothing had happened. After that, he washed his hands in Jinpen and lived a secluded life, planning to spend the rest of his life.
And this woman is the rich man's daughter Charlie. Charlie and his father didn't have much intersection. Although Charlie wanted his father's care and attention since he was a child, his father did not give Charlie much fatherly love for various reasons. Charlie was a girl who seriously lacked fatherly love. Instead, the strategist played the role of Charlie's father.
In order to avenge his father, Charlie came to the murderer Henry's territory alone, ready to kill Henry. Henry is an old man after all, how could he not be able to get a child. Charlie's assassination failed, but Henry didn't want to kill the girl.
At the same time, the wealthy strategist sent Charlie's childhood hair Xiao Hei to find Charlie's whereabouts and protect Charlie. Xiao Hei pursued all the way and finally found Charlie's clues. But when Xiao Hei arrived at the cabin, Henry was stabbed to death.
Maybe Henry's heart has changed a lot. He feels extremely guilty for killing the girl's father. He is old and has many enemies. If he doesn't die today, it doesn't mean that no one will kill him tomorrow. His life is destined to be uneventful. It is better to have a good time than to live, so Henry shot and recruited the police who were investigating the case, and deliberately died under the police's gun...
The movie I went to see in Reno was a big disappointment. What's wrong with this killer, is he too cold? How can you be so selfish. Where is the clear-headed and nimble Renault. "Suicide" without warning is unreasonable, and it will ruin your reputation when you are old and old.
The plot of the movie is completely uncontrollable, full of loopholes, illogical, and confused. The two police officers are simply redundant. The killer movie police itself is redundant, and the world of the killer has nothing to do with the police. The girl's mentality of wanting to take revenge for her father is understandable, but what's the hurry? No one is chasing you so fast, and she almost didn't fall to her death. Do you want to use a bitter trick? The killers are watching Sun Tzu's Art of War, is the bitter tactic still useful?
Xiao Hei, who thought he was the king, turned out to be a rotten copper. He looked very powerful, but he turned out to be a hole-filler. There is a suspense that I didn't explain clearly, whether the military advisor wanted to use Henry's hands to kill the little girl, didn't this plan fail, and he didn't give an explanation. Henry's final death is even more incomprehensible. If it is really conscience that the girl should be killed earlier, why should it be cheap to the police?
In addition to the most beautiful scenery in the movie, I really can't compliment it. I thought that there would be hearty action scenes such as gunfights and so on. If you want to waste time, this movie is a good choice.
