Now I find out that I did it wrong because I didn't watch this video for the first time.
The tight plot, the tit-for-tat confrontation between justice and evil, made my heart pound; the slow rhythm in the middle—the friendship between the protagonist and his comrades, his true feelings with his wife and children, moved me.
The description of the two lines of good and evil makes the narrative more complete and the characters more fleshed out, and the ingenious transition does not make people feel abrupt. One of them admired the way he used newspaper headlines as clues and dialogues. In addition, many of them pay tribute to the masters and predecessors, such as the "stairs", "steps" and "baby carriages" in "Battleship Potemkin".
But I met such an excellent work a year late, and this long-lost feeling was a year late, which made me feel a pity.
I find it right that I'm only watching this movie now.
In a quiet and soothing afternoon, when I was tired and lazy, I turned on the player as a leisure time, but it turned out to be a shot in the arm. 120 minutes of audio-visual enjoyment, accompanied by endless emotions.
Perhaps this infinite emotion and feeling can only emerge like a spark in the darkness when one calms down.
The above is a comprehensive feeling. Out of personal habit, I recommend this movie to you on the principle of no spoilers.
The following is a little bit of personal feelings, I just hope to have the effect of attracting others.
Justice is a cheap
summit of one of the film's evil ----- Capa, the use of violence by the sale of bootleg liquor (in the case of countries have announced Prohibition) acquired a huge amount of wealth (Balzac: behind all wealth hides the shadow of sin). And through various means bribed the local police department, district attorney's office prosecutors, court judges, juries, and even the mayor, and then became the "underground mayor" of Chicago - only one gap away from the real mayor. Zhang's appointment letter.
This is a different irony in a country where "legislative, judicial, administrative" and "separation of powers" check each other to maintain national justice and fairness. The "judiciary" and "administration", which should uphold the law after the "legislation", bowed their heads in the face of sin, gave up their dignity, and then joined forces with the "evil" that should have been incompatible with them.
At this moment, justice is cheap. Even if the amount is huge, it can be purchased, owned, and insulted by this dirty method.
Two justice is expensive
until the hero from the Ministry of Finance and was sent to Chicago as Commissioner, to make up task force to investigate the time. He was a fledgling with a sense of justice, but he was still inexperienced in the world. In the beginning of the operation, he failed because of the "inner ghost" selling information, and was made fun of by colleagues, public opinion, and society. However, the family members of the victims of the previous violence under Capa met him in person, and their sincere and hopeful eyes and words rekindled their confidence and war.
Then he found the team members who shared a sense of justice: the old policeman who was ostracized because he was on duty--Malone, the genius of the police academy--Stone, the accountant sent by the Ministry of Finance--Oscar (--). And decided to use "all legal means" to "fight with Capa until the last moment, until the moment when the opponent falls".
But then, after the initial victory, they ushered in a bloody storm, the safety of their families was threatened, the lives of their comrades were hanging by a thread, and some feeling of powerlessness to compete with the vested interests in the entire city came upon them. Angry, powerless, but without fear, they are still willing to give everything and everything in order to uphold the justice in their hearts.
Life is the most precious thing. However, there are indeed many who are also willing to believe in their hearts. And I was ready to lose Ta. In the film, countless lives lost their lives for the sake of interests and ideals, and lost everything that was originally beautiful...
Justice at this moment is expensive, because people who uphold justice and know often often You have to use your own blood to wash away the dust on justice and keep justice holy.
Justice at this moment is expensive. All those who want to use their own means and money to control, own or even override justice are fantasizing, oh, no, they are delusional, and they will be countered by them.
At the end of the third film, a news reporter who has always been keen to report on the deeds of the team members saw off the actor and mentioned: "I heard that they will cancel the "prohibition order", what would you do?" At this moment, I think many people will be full of emotion Qian, if that's the case, isn't it meaningless what the group members did in the first place? Are their sacrifices worthless?
No, no, it makes sense, and it makes a lot of sense. Because they are upholding the dignity of the law. Although maybe he and the general public know that "Prohibition" is just a political ploy by politicians. (He also said that in the play 'proper for drinks a few mouthfuls of no harm' this is the case), but he's committed, the teacher reminds me of my spiritual teacher --- Socrates
his old because "the introduction of new gods He was sentenced to death for the crime of corrupting the minds of Athenian youth. Everyone knew that such a sentence was unfair and that he had a chance to escape. He resolutely went to death and drank poisonous pansy juice. , are to ensure the authority and fairness of the law, and to defend the holiness of the belief in one's heart.
So, he paused for a moment and replied easily: "I think i'll have a drink."
