When I watched it, I had the same thoughts as the male protagonist’s girlfriend. The child lives in a retired police family with adoptive parents who dote on him. After returning home, there is only one mother in the family who has no stable income and has a history of alcoholism and drug addiction. Compared with the former, it can make children happier. I'm not as pessimistic as that girlfriend, thinking that bad people will never get better, but I can't be pessimistic about this mother, even if she might get better, but who will take the responsibility of the mother still go its own way and make the child ten The risk of becoming a sister in a few years? Can the male lead afford it? So when the male protagonist chose to call the police, I couldn't believe it was true. I thought it was a pre-set image in his mind, but it wasn't. The fact is that the child was sent back to the mother, the uncle and the police involved in the case were also put in jail, and the male protagonist's girlfriend also left him. If the movie is here, this is a good crime movie. At least I guessed Remi and my uncle, but I didn't guess the big boss behind. Although the ending was not satisfactory, the male protagonist made a righteous choice.
However, the ending pushed the story back a little bit, allowing the male protagonist and us to see the price the male protagonist paid for justice: the burden of his girlfriend who was never seen again and the child he rescued. He insisted on justice, so he needs to endure these. This ending not only elevates the image of the male protagonist, but also relieves me a little: look, this is the consequence, if the child does not come back, your family is happy, the child's uncle The family is happy, the police family is happy, and the children are also happy. As for the mother of the child, she already has the death certificate of the child, time will dilute everything, and a happy ending is enough for a person's unhappiness.
I have to admit that the next second I was relieved, I began to reflect on my selfishness. As long as the child is alive, but not by the mother's side, there will never be enough or forgetting for the mother. Why should we decide the future of the child for the mother? If the mother doesn't care about the child, who can understand the mother's loss of the child? It hurts.
The ending is why I add an extra star, it tells people the price of justice, and how people choose is up to themselves.
