-scenes production
, this is a second-tier second-tier director who leads a group of second-tier actors with second-rate acting skills. A work classified as a second-tier movie, but if you have actually seen this movie, you will definitely not agree with the statement that this movie is only second-tier. The film discusses the current media in depth. They do whatever it takes to mercilessly publicize some trivial or not-so-glamorous things. For a time, the parties involved in the incident were in trouble, the solution of the matter was complicated, and the development trend of the matter was out of control... But the media never considered these, the only thing they considered was that the worse the parties involved, the higher their ratings; It can't be solved, the more the audience cares about the development of the situation... This is the current media, and this movie shows the ugly state of the media in front of us one by one.

The Chase quotes

  • Jack Hammond: That's the question on the minds of all your viewers? Whether I run out of gas or not? Tell you what, Jer. You let your viewers know that I hope Miss Voss' fear and my desperation are entertainment enough for them. After all, that is what this is all about, isn't it? The story. As it breaks. Live. Coming to you from the bad guy himself. I mean we wouldn't want your viewers to change the fucking channel, now, would we?

  • Officer Dobbs: For me, it's the respect and power that the position commands. I don't know whether to be busting bad guys or signing autographs. It's kinda like being a star.
