The title of the film is: Fallen/Rage/Crash, it will be more appropriate than "City Hero", I don't know which stupid Wenqing named this film.

If you give up emotional management, do not introspect, and do not self-control, you will be doomed to fall, collapse in the storm of anger, and fail in this life.

The protagonist is middle-aged and unemployed, and his only sustenance is a young daughter. After his ex-wife rejects his visit, it greatly weakens his will to fight for a better life.

In a series of provocative and unavoidable conflicts that followed,

He stepped out of the rules of daily behavior again and again,

Trying a series of previously impossible transcendence, in the conflict from last resort to initiative, the self is broken and rebuilt,

And every time the spoils of war are reshaping him,

A stubby stick, a butterfly knife, a duffel bag full of guns,

New weapons, new solutions, new behaviors, new mindsets,

In the restaurant, he achieves his willed goals by will, and everyone obeys and bows to him,

At this time, he still has entanglements and hopes for the world,

"What kind of doctor lives here?"

"Plastic surgeon..."

"Can plastic surgeons buy these??"

"Looks like I'm in the wrong line,"

"Are there any correspondence courses in plastic surgery?"

"I'm unemployed. In fact, it's not that I don't want a job, it's a job that doesn't want me, I'm well educated and skilled.. Maybe there are other ways out, I forgot, I'm useless, out of date, I can't From a financially worry-free life, I can't even feed my own children"

The protagonist is reflecting on memory, and the old life is gone forever.

This film is very good, the characters are full, the acting is in place, and the rhythm is powerful.

In this life, it is difficult to follow the trend or to be self-determined. This theme is well explained.
