After watching Sandra Bullock do a great job in "Gravity," Colin Farrell's performance on a public phone almost all the time in this film is just as good in my opinion.
The story of this film is: Colin Farrell plays a man who works hard in New York full of money lust, defrauding multilaterals for his own interests, so that multilaterals can satisfy each other's needs, and he earns money and reputation in the middle. He loves his wife, but is full of fantasies about new actresses. Under all this, Colin Farrell was forced to communicate (big) (show) (show) (act) (skill) with a near-vigilante presence through a public phone, under the threat of life and death from both Vigilante and the police, A "happy reunion" ending: Colin Farrell realizes his true self, deepens his relationship with his wife, the police crack a case that attracts high social attention, and Vigilante finds a scapegoat at ease. . .
The rhythm of the film is well grasped and develops as vigilante's careful design emerges step by step. Some people say that the ending of this film is crazy, but I think the ending is too straightforward, but there is no more reasonable way: Vigilante has long emphasized that as long as Colin Farrell faces his mistakes, it is OK, Colin Farrell finally finished This point; vigilante itself is not an indiscriminate murderer, otherwise Colin Farrell would not have the opportunity to show his acting skills; so at the end, it is still ok to see the end of the film by asking Colin Farrell to live vigilante and vigilante to continue to serve as a warning.
Although Colin Farrell completed the "advancement of life" under the guidance of Vigilante's death threat, he couldn't help but think, if Colin Farrell did not resist the death threat, picked up the pistol too early, or dropped the phone and walked out of the phone booth, Then he should be shot by the police or vigilante. But if Colin Farrell walks out of the phone booth and is shot to death, then the pistol will only have a little finger print on the handle; if Colin Farrell picks up the pistol in advance, there will also be loopholes such as the number of bullets, the reaction of the ray gunpowder, etc. , vigilante should have no way to hide these. So vigilante is not an urban hero, but an extremist.
All in all, Colin Farrell, while panicking most of the time, is still handsome.
