Declaration of War and Common Resistance

I have always heard of Soderbergh's name, and many film critics compared it with Paul Thomas Anderson, thinking that the two have a lot of love points, and they went to see the film with their love for Anderson. But I just watched it for less than 30 minutes. I once suspected that there was something wrong with the source I downloaded. The color of the movie screen was obviously not uniform, and sometimes I felt a little awkward. But as the plot progressed, I gradually discovered the director's intention. Three storylines and three locations are rendered in three different tones. It can be said that it is unique, and it also sets off the atmosphere of different plots. Benicio del Toro is a perfect match for such a role. But what caught my eye the most was the last thought brought about by the story itself, that is, the antagonistic relationship between the anti-drug declaration and the drug addicts. When the government only pays attention to the means of prohibition, should it also pay attention to the drug addicts, just like the original protagonist Douglas is a very determined anti-drug fighter, but when his family is also a drug addict, he slowly finds out Drug control is not just a declaration of war, but a common resistance, because declaring war means declaring war on one's own family. Addicts are not the enemy of society. Their voices need more attention from society. Just like Douglas, after listening to his daughter's speech at the end, said that her mother and I were listening very carefully. When the government raises the banner of correctness and calls for prohibition, does it also put drug victims on the opposite side? This kind of thinking brought about by the film is what I think is the biggest highlight of the film.

"The scene of drug trafficking on the streets of the United States brings the visual effects of drug addicts." When watching TV, I thought it was the screen problem that showed an ethereal green color. There are many lines running through the plot, but they are very stable. Although the too realistic shooting techniques are a little boring, they are all clear and clear, and there is no sign of confusion.

Francisco Flores: [1:33:02] I want to use a bomb.
Helena Ayala: Are you kidding? Can't you just shoot him or something?
Francisco Flores: I don't really like guns. You shoot someone in the head three times and some pinche doctor will keep them alive.

Montel Gordon: So you pay off customs officials?
Montel Gordon: Well, you know, in Mexico, law enforcement is an entrepreneurial activity. Not so much in the states, anyway, we, uh... We hire drivers with nothing and throw a lot of product at the problem. Some gets stopped, enough gets through. It's not difficult. Look, boys, this has worked for years, okay. It's going to continue to work for years.
