Old Morgan's face is very kind, and it is easy to position the character he plays in advance, which will affect the audience's judgment of him. In this film he is hard to say good or bad, at best a person who does his best to complete the task, or a sad person. If another person plays this role, I believe that people will have different feelings in the process of watching the film, and the meaning of his actions will be different.
The dangerous characters in the film are actually state secrets. They risk their lives to serve the country, but they have no honor because they are just removing obstacles for the country. In other words, it is to eliminate different voices, which is beneficial to the stability of the country. However, the film only lets the public know this concept, and does not go too deep into this kind of characters, it can be said to stop. Even so, the film has not been released in North America, perhaps due to safety factors.
Looking back, just from a practical point of view, it is worth discussing what an ordinary father and son should do when they encounter such a person, especially when the "prisoner" they are facing is an old man. In the wild, it is not a good thing to meet people, because you can't judge the intention of the other party; if you encounter handcuffs + guns, it is even more dangerous. It is right not to let people go at the beginning, because you don't know the details of the other party, whether they will kill them afterwards. . But staying by the side of dangerous people is unreliable, especially after witnessing his companions kill, then there are very few choices at this time. Either just kill him and pretend nothing happened; or let him go and beg others to pity you. At this time, there is a node. When climbing the cliff, the "bad guy" saved the child's life. This time is actually the best time to let the other party go. Obviously, the old man is not willing to hurt the innocent. Going forward, a series of dangers can only be said to be self-inflicted and bring innocent casualties. Of course, the film needs dramatic effects, and naturally it will not be carried out according to common sense, otherwise there is nothing to watch.
