For the first time writing a film review, I want to start with the changes in the male protagonist and share my feelings with you.
The portrayal of the male protagonist is very deep in this play. The performance of the actors is also meticulous. At first, the background of the male protagonist was the holder of a financial company, with a high degree of education, and a beautiful and capable fiancée. He is in love and career. In the rising period, if you are not a winner in life, you will be proud of the spring breeze. Behind this seemingly perfect resume, there is a small flaw, that is, his parents are inextricably linked with Russian gangsters. However, he grew up in London since he was a child and received higher education and gentleman education. The grievances and grievances have completely drawn the line. Because of his uncle he had to go to Russia to ask his uncle for help, and that became the cause of the whole story. He witnessed the tragic death of his uncle with his own eyes, and nearly lost his own life. Although this was the first time he had experienced this, he was panicked but not at a loss, as if the instinct in his bones made him not only protect himself, but also protect his family. This sudden incident not only proves that he has ingenuity, but also has a great advantage, calm. This also paved the way for a decision to deal with other moments of crisis later. The uncle who had been with him since childhood died, which was a huge blow to him. However, under the huge pull of love and family, this incident was not enough for him to take that step. At most, it left a crack in the seal of his soul. It was the father who was so devastated by the death of his younger brother that he even chose to commit suicide, which made him completely decide what to do. I think the strongest emotion that made the male protagonist make up his mind is no longer the grief of losing a loved one, but from the depths of his soul. humiliation. At this time, Semiyon threw an olive branch, and the male protagonist completely put aside his previous hesitation and chose to accept it. So far, although the male protagonist just wanted to give Vadim Kalyagin a little bit of hardship to the behind-the-scenes killing of his uncle, in fact, the audience has faintly felt that things cannot be that simple. The fiancée confessed, but it didn't feel like acting to me, it was more a struggle with the deep desire of the soul, or a final compromise. At this time, the male protagonist was more like a drug addict. What a sincere apology and repentance, how can he resist the spiritual satisfaction brought by drugs, since he chose to take that step, it has been impossible to turn back, although the male protagonist at this time did not fully realize it. Until later, Semiyon Kleiman Realizing the true ambition of the male protagonist, and adopting a "peace negotiation" to speed up the formation of a real confrontation between the two camps, the male protagonist at this time no longer hesitates, or to be precise, no longer hides it, especially when When the father saw through his true intentions, although the male protagonist kept saying that he was protecting his family in the dialogue between the father and son, he showed calmness and even ruthlessness, which made the father feel that his son was indeed impossible to turn back. Although the ending of the final story is thrilling, it is not unexpected. Although the male protagonist's enemy Vadim Kalyagin seems to have more powerful strength, he is actually troubled by internal and external problems. The most fundamental thing is that he is like an old lion king of a lion group. The male protagonist of Ya has obviously fallen into the disadvantage. Looking at the overall situation, Vadim Kalyagin seems to be aware of everything. Although he is still cruel, he has already lost the decisiveness of the past, but he has more women. Jen, this also laid the groundwork for its final tragic ending.
In the end, there are two climaxes in the whole play. One is that the trembling hands of the male protagonist who pulled the trigger when he killed the enemy were not only afraid of the first murder, but also contained a farewell to the past, and I felt more It's the excitement of the rights that will come. And Vadim Kalyagin finally turned his back to the photo of the male protagonist holding his daughter and calmly accepted the fate of death, which was particularly tragic. The new and old lion kings have completed the handover at this moment.
Another climax is at the end of the film, when signing the contract with the government. Before signing the contract, the male protagonist was still polite. Although he did not give in to the contract requirements and was harsh on his former ally, Joseph, a Mexican, he still had decent behavior. The personable demeanor is less aggressive, but still gives everyone the illusion of being weak and deceiving. After the final signing was successful, he immediately put away his smile, skipped Joseph directly, just shook hands with government officials, and walked to the peak of power with the chilling background music. The speed of this transformation surprised everyone, and presumably so did the audience. I even suspected that the shackles of the demons that blocked the depths of their souls had already broken the seals. It has always been a meticulous disguise to paralyze the enemy, or to say success paralyzed himself, and then paralyzed the enemy. The whole play gives people a feeling of being in one go, neither procrastination nor abrupt, the rhythm is very good, and the actor James Norton who plays the male protagonist is also very precise in controlling the role. All in all, five-star praise, yes the male protagonist is called Alex, bye! !
