I was bored on a weekend afternoon in Beijing. I watched an early American movie "Crash", and it really broke down.


A middle-aged man who was fired for his country's missile research. His career was bleak, but he still wanted to go to his ex-wife's house to celebrate his daughter's birthday, but he was stuck in the long line of road repairs. I got out of the car to make a phone call, but because there was no change, I went to a small shop to change it. The Korean boss only allowed him to buy things. Faced with 85 cents of Coke, he asked, why 50 cents of Coke cost 85 cents? Conflicts have arisen in this way. Under various social injustices, pressures, and lies, men have begun to collapse in the face of society, and they have begun to find the so-called "fairness" in their own way.


He smashed a grocery store and stole a baseball bat; he hit two gangsters who wanted to rob them on the road, but they were shot in retaliation. The drama was that the gangsters missed the hit, but crashed into a car in a panic, and were shot by a man Take the gun. Went into a hamburger restaurant to order breakfast, but was told that breakfast was too late and went crazy; tried to buy a pair of shoes at a second-hand store, but was forcibly sent by the anti-social owner of the bazooka. Finally, he took the rocket launcher and fired rockets at the road that was still being repaired, which was still blocked by countless cars. Walking across the golf course, he looked at the old high level old man lying on the ground who had started abusing him and then had a heart attack from his gun, saying that such a large field should be played by children!


After a series of twists and turns, after seeing his daughter, the man did not want to watch her grow up in prison, and finally exchanged her daughter's toy water gun for a bullet from the police, which freed him. Dramatically, the person who finally caught the collapsed man was an old policeman who retired immediately after going to work on the last day.


In fact, the man didn't do anything really bad, he paid 50 cents for Coke, he played the robbery punk, and finally accepted that breakfast time should be bought for lunch instead of breakfast, he wore a shoe with a torn hole and gave His daughter bought a music box for her birthday. He didn't understand why the country made him, a missile researcher, unemployed, but let the plastic surgeon live in a villa...


Old policeman and Oscar winner Michael Douglas The final dialogue of the middle-aged man played is very intriguing. The middle-aged man asked, "Am I a bad guy?", and the old policeman said, "You are a bad guy."


In our country, in fact, many people are on the verge of collapse,
