The prodigal son is eager to look back, but the world is no longer that world

I was at work today, but I took the time to watch it. I don’t have the habit of giving scores. In terms of star rating, it is four and a half stars. Because it is strongly recommended to me by a good friend, it is also his favorite movie, so I want to say a few more words. .
The protagonist in the film is too kind, too loyal, and too trusting in the beautiful blueprint he draws for everyone. From his momentary softness, I know that it will cause a catastrophe in the near future, and the result is not surprising (although it is also a bit unexpected) ), after all, such a ruffian would not care about morality, nor would he be grateful, just like the group of child soldiers in Operation Mekong. You love them, but their purpose is to kill you. There is no moral code. Regardless of the consequences, so you are not the same, and there is no need to treat them with what you insist on in your heart. Times have changed, and the old world as understood by the hero is gone forever.
Let’s talk about the heroine. She is beautiful, sexy, stubborn and loyal. Every time I look at the heroine, I’m very affectionate. I can’t restrain my liking for her. I don’t know why. Maybe she doesn’t think there is anything in her profession. It's wrong, and I won't be ashamed of it. It seems that this is art. It is the art that she values, loves and enjoys, but at the same time she is very self-respecting. Such a hot pink talent can make the male protagonist fall in love, and it can be considered as folded in her hands.
Like redrum or most people, I like the chase scene very much, it's wonderful. The ending is regrettable, but this is the only correct ending.

Carlito's Way quotes

  • David Kleinfeld: Fuck you and your self-righteous code of the goddamn streets. Did it pull you out of a 30 year stint in only 5 years? No, it didn't, I did. Did it get you acquitted 4 fucking times? No, it didn't, I did, so fuck you, fuck the streets, your whole goddamn world is this big, and there's only one rule, you save your own ass.

  • Carlito: If I ever, I mean if I ever see you here again, you die.

    [Snaps fingers]

    Carlito: Just like that.
