The literal translation of the name is Justifiable Defense. This isn't really Sean Connery's masterpiece. The plot of the story is compact and bizarre, but also reasonable: the black rural college students of the famous school were injured in the detention center due to the excessive law enforcement by the white female prosecutor and the brutal law enforcement by the white police, and lost the capital of a man. The black student went to great lengths to get revenge, trying to bring the female prosecutor and her husband (Sean Connery's Harvard law professor, barrister) into disrepute and ruin. The black students almost succeeded, and in the end, of course, justice paid the price and defeated evil.
The country's law enforcement machine is operated by humans. Misjudgments or perversions of the law occur everywhere, and the whole society must pay the price. The film uses an incredible legend to tell us to respect and love the dignity, body and mind of everyone.
The latest version of the Shanghai killings is similar to the movie. The Beijing madman originally traveled in Shanghai and rented a bicycle, but unfortunately it was a stolen car. He suffered unfair law enforcement at the police station and lost his male physiological function. Negotiations for compensation were unsuccessful, and relevant persons from the Public Security Bureau did not act. Finally evolved into the current situation.
How can we make law enforcement less unfair, how can we love everyone, and how can we be more harmonious?

Just Cause quotes

  • Blair Sullivan: You've got The Trials Of Job ahead of you. The Trials Of Job!

  • Blair Sullivan: You're the first visitor I've had here in two years since them behavioral science boys come to see me. Wanna know about my childhood and shit. Did my folks beat me, abuse me, sex me up? I tried telling 'em there ain't no formula for people like me. What we are dealing with here is just predisposition for an appetite. Good parents, bad parents. No cause and effect. It's just appetite.

    Paul Armstrong: Fuck you.

    Blair Sullivan: [yelling] Let me tell you a few things, Armstrong! One, I'm filled with power! You might think I'm impotent prisoner, handcuffed and shackled, locked in a eight by seven cell each night and day, but I'm filled with strength that reaches way beyond these bars, sir! I can crush anyone I want to just as these hands dialing a telephone! There's no one beyond my reach! You hear me, no one!

    Paul Armstrong: Did you kill her?

    Blair Sullivan: I ain't gonna tell you if I killed that little girl or not. Even if I did, how would you know to believe me? Killing is easy for me. How hard do you think lying is?

    Paul Armstrong: Go to hell!

    Blair Sullivan: True. I will. No doubt about that!
