Memphis said, "I'm a bad man."
In fact, all thieves are bad men. It's just that these smart "bad men" often have superb stealing skills and a handsome appearance. With these, they can attract the attention of female audiences and bribe their hearts more than just police officers.
There is a balance between cleverness and stupidity. When the thief is too smart and the policeman is too stupid, there will be a big gap in IQ, so there is a good scene where the police catch the thief but fail again and again.
Unlike Hong Kong TV dramas, Hollywood not only arranges a bunch of stupid toys for the thieves, but also has a good opponent.
The battle of wits and courage between soldiers and thieves is wonderful, but if I can see in the film that the soldiers and the thieves are not enemies but friendship, then this film will definitely win my heart. After all, there are too many good police detectives in reality, too few thieves, and even fewer moral thieves, and there is often no friendship between the two.
It's not that all the bad guys are caught, it's the good guys that do justice. There is a gray area between black and white.
The friendship between soldiers and thieves may be more exciting than the pure battle between good and evil.
If it wasn't for his unsatisfactory younger brother, Memphis would never have reappeared in the arena. You can see the satisfaction he showed when teaching his children to race cars, and then look at his helplessness when he arranged the car theft plan. You will know that he actually enjoys the former life more. Taking the happiness of the children as his own happiness, the knowledge that was once used for crime, and using it in a different way, the identity has changed from a car thief to a teacher.
He could have gone on like this, and continued to satisfy himself with little pleasures, as long as he didn't see Raymond, who was a little frantic. But no, he can't do it, it's about his brother's life and death, he can't put his brother behind and continue to live his life.
Brothers' love is brothers' love.
Blood is thicker than water. Between brothers, who owes whom and who harms whom cannot be settled.
So, he went to see Raymond, and as soon as he heard about his brother, he went without hesitation.
With no choice, he had to steal those fifty cars.
As he plots to steal the car, his opponent, Casher, also gets in on the action.
There is only one difference between the police and the robbers who rob the rich and help the poor, that is, the police have documents, but the robbers do not. Because of their documents, they have an additional legal cordon. A qualified policeman can face anyone breaking the law, even if Family members and friends can't be allowed to do anything wrong. Casher is such a policeman.
But police officers are human beings after all. Although they have to abide by many rules, they never want their relatives and friends to be arrested by themselves. Casher has repeatedly warned Memphis that because he does not want to arrest Memphis by himself, for whatever reason, If Memphis wants to shoot again, he can't let it go, because he is carrying the name of a policeman.
However, no matter how much Casher knew about Memphis, and even delved into Memphis' stealing habits, he couldn't do anything about it. Memphis was smart, cautious, and more importantly, moral.
When his friend was at gunpoint and Memphis rushed out, he could have walked away and saved Casher, probably going to jail, but I believe Memphis didn't have the time or thought He had to consider these things, but it was his friends who were in danger, so to save him, he couldn't leave his friends alone, just as he never thought of abandoning his friends back then, but relatives were more important.
A friend in need is a friend indeed.
"Before I change my mind, go." I knew this detective wouldn't change his mind, at least at the time.
Just because there is a kind of love between this soldier and the thief who saved his life.
The relationship between soldier and thief.
