Let alone the aesthetic fatigue, just talk about the quality of the film. I think it is superior, and basically There are not too many loopholes, but the conflict and violence are downplayed, and the sense of realism is strengthened.
This is a very standard American film applying for Oscars, and it is also very powerful. In fact, the plot is still more Hollywood stylized, but it is indeed a stylized one. Classic.
First is the huge amount of information, showing the entire operation process of the dark criminal network centered on the drug network. The director uses a large number of montage film language to characterize the highly generalized and condensed images in front of the audience. For example, prostitutes and hooligans in The close-up of the intravenous injection in the dark bar, the blood oozing from the needle mouth, and the family members who took the drug overdose, the scene of the baby sitting on the bed and crying, and the delicate strokes of the train guessing are brought over. Compared with
Russell Kroo's calm, old and witty bloody criminal can be hard and soft. The system is not only extraordinary, but also very patient in organizing the arrest of Frank.
For the two roles, the rendering of family life is not much, but it is very in place, and the techniques are not new. They do not call the black boss to disguise the mask to be torn to the family. The mother is sad and the wife is in pain, and then the police arrests people and feels bored. Families only need sex to consume the classic routine of depressing life. But portraying Frank’s family gathering to eat turkey and dead opponents and lonely policemen make wonderful cold potato chips and mixed vegetable sandwiches (the sandwich that Russell made looks really appetizing! See! (You have to learn to do it yourself), the two contrasts, the violent and bloody crime of drug dealings and the tranquility of family meals are the most suitable for a strong contrast, highlighting the cruelty of how low-level racial families survive in the dark American society, Frank used strong The extreme methods of defending the peace of the family, the good wine and delicacies at home are derived from the share of the crime and drugs that have drawn countless people into the abyss. The broken family of the lonely police has become the driving force for the fight against criminals! It is the extreme of a civilized society. The big irony. The drug addicts actually carried out drug trafficking activities and used the coffins of their comrades as cover...The
final end...The end calmly...Frank is in the two factions with the police and the black police. In his dealings, Russell caught him at the right time and place, but the downfall of the black police faction was the result of Frank and Russell's deal, and ultimately the criminal fish law enforcer's deal, which exposed greater corruption and darkness, and a large number of black police officers. The exposure caused the so-called justice ruler to tilt again. It is no longer clear who is and who is wrong. There is crime everywhere in the sun. Russell is not a policeman, and he actually works as a lawyer to reduce the sentence of criminals he has caught hard. Why? It's too reasonable. There is no justice. There is only a contest. It is a contest. The meaning of justice has been submerged in the chaotic era of black and white. 15 years later, Frank
's eyes were still indifferent after he was released from prison . We are already Know that things will never end.
