This story is quite complicated. It is a story of a group of people with different ideas, secretly calculating, and after all, nothing can be calculated. A group of people fighting in their nests and overturning the boat. There are a lot of clues, I took notes in each episode, and finally eliminated asif, lale, Luan and Moss, these characters and clues that make you dizzy, leaving the main line for chat.
Finn, the boss of the London gang, got tired of investors, bought a yacht and an island, and was killed when he was about to abandon his wife and children, leaving two unresolved issues.
First, who killed him? It's his eldest son, Sean's, throughout the season, finding the murderer.
Second, what about the mess in business? This is the exercise for the group's second-in-command this season.
These two questions are not difficult, Sean already knew who killed his father in the third episode, so there is the bloodbath camp, but this is not the real behind the scenes.
In the opening recollections of the second and fourth episodes of the story, it has been told that Sean is not a good person, and Finn always has a lot of dissatisfaction with him. Indeed, after watching the whole season, the Sean I saw was also a headless fly who had no countermeasures, acted impulsive, and was carried by various rhythms. On the contrary, his younger brother Billy, who appeared to be a cowardly and incompetent drug addict, displayed a high degree of tact in the final retreat.
Why do I say Sean is running with a rhythm? Mainly because he is isolated and unable to recognize reality. On the surface, Xing Xing Xing's second-in-command has shown the characteristics of yang and yin from the beginning of the story, which makes people feel that he has reservations. However, Sean was completely unaware of this. He was trapped by this obsession to find the murderer. In the seventh episode, he knew the truth from ed's mouth and still did not accept it.
In fact, the second-in-command didn't really have two hearts, at least not at first, he just acted sneakily, including killing Finn's driver Jack in the first episode. It's just that Sean didn't hesitate to suspend business in order to find out who killed his father. This conflicted with the second-in-command's exercise. After all, the second-in-command knew from the beginning that Finn was going to hand over the group's business to him. Besides, there was also Luan. The unfinished mess over there wasn't dealt with.
I think in the whole season, this is a problem that ed should put on the table at the beginning and tell everyone that Finn is the one who left his family and career with his sister and money to run away, but he chose to kill the last one. The driver who can help him testify that there is something really happened, resulting in every step they take is because of ed's concealment, which may be called good intentions from his point of view, and it conflicts with Sean's messing up step by step until the investor decides to buy it. Kill the Wallace family. Things got so out of hand that ed began to fail to protect himself. Alex wanted to tell Sean the truth, but in the end he chose to hide it. By the time Mrs. Marian revealed it, the nature of the matter had changed. From helping his brother hide his affair to taking the property of his brother's family, and in the end, it even developed to the point of firming up the idea of letting his brother's family disappear for self-protection.
In this way, the two families who joined hands to build the largest gangster group in London turned against each other in the end and ended each other with their own hands.
Sean was wiser in the end.
When he was blowing up the building, he told Alex that the investors didn't know that he would transfer assets before killing him. My dad was tired of all this and decided to leave. What you are doing now is what my dad did in the past.
Indeed, just as the existence of the Wallace family is unnecessary, the existence of the ed family is only temporarily necessary.
However, I still do not understand, why ed father and son did not want to understand this from the beginning to the end?
Under the huge capital, people suddenly become small. The invisible ghost of capital made the people who were originally on the same boat slaughter each other in a daze.
At the end of the story, in the Wallace family, the seemingly cowardly brother ran away with his sister, and Marian didn't seem to be dead. On top of that, there are a lot of unresolved issues buried. For example, Xiaosan was captured by the special forces and locked up. The special forces were hired by investors. If the billions that disappeared were really transferred to Xiaosan, then the father and son ed worked so hard to find money to invest. Don't people already know where it is? And the escaped mistress appeared beside Marian, who was not dead, and said that she wanted to help her, leaving so many people and so much money, is she going to kill her and come back for revenge? And the undercover policeman Elliot's defection, is it really dark, or has he entered the world of investors and continues to go undercover? These unanswered questions make people really look forward to the second season.
Btw, many people said that the first season started high and went low, and the fifth episode was the dividing line. The fifth episode was really exciting, and the overhead shots that appeared in the special forces were comparable to movies. The gunfight scene is good, and Kinney's relationship with his son is also very tragic. The best supporting actor in the first season, I think it can be awarded to Kinney.
Elliott is not a successful cop in this season, but he has successfully contributed many fight scenes that make people feel pain just by watching, delicate and down-to-earth.
And Sean and Billy, I think the tone of these two brothers has been set very well from the beginning, there is a sense of forbearance and abstinence. Although one of them had a gay party, the other contributed the only sex scene in the season.
