We all know that the United States can't help but guns, and the United States is a country with a vast area and sparsely populated areas. Therefore, public security has always been a social problem that plagues Americans.

Although it takes a lot of procedures to buy guns, there are many gangsters in the chaotic community, and it is difficult to guarantee that some black guns will not flow into the market.

Some friends of Pico who have been to the United States say that even during the day, they rarely go out because they are worried that it will be unsafe, and many locals in the United States will go out with guns.

In watching Hollywood movies, you can often see plots of gangsters robbing stores with guns. These scenes have always made Pico feel that those who open supermarkets in the United States are also putting their heads on their belts.

The movie "Four Brothers" I'm going to talk about today is a revenge story triggered from a supermarket robbery.

This is a 2005 movie, directed by John Singleton, starring Teddy Bear’s good friend Mark Wahlberg and Tyrese Gibson of the "Fast and Furious" series.

The movie starts with a robbery shooting in a midnight supermarket. The old woman Evelyn Mercer is a kind and enthusiastic person. She has helped many people and adopted many orphans throughout her life.

Evelyn didn't expect that just to buy a turkey in the supermarket, death would fall on her at this time.

Two black gunmen broke into the supermarket. After taking the cash from the cash register, they still attacked the clerk. Evelyn, who was in the supermarket, was also shot and killed.

Evelyn had adopted four problematic teenagers, and because no one wanted to adopt them, these four teenagers became her adopted children.

Evelyn kept nurturing them until they grew up. Although the four of them were still wild and unchanging, they were kind-hearted.

After Evelyn died, Bobby, Anger, Jeremiah and Jack got together again.

The four brothers gathered for Thanksgiving after presided over the funeral of their mother.

During the meal, they kept thinking of their mother's voice and smile before her death, but at this moment they could not see her mother again.

The next day the four went to the law firm to receive the relics left by their mother.

Bobby decides to find the murderer of his mother. Anger and Jack both expressed their support, but Jeremiah believes that his mother died in a sudden shooting incident and it is difficult to find the murderer.

After noticing the contradictions in the confessions of the witnesses collected by the police, Bobby began to believe that his mother died of murder, rather than simply robbery and murder.

He started investigating with Ange and Jack.

The Bobby brothers tracked down two black killers hired by Victor, and killed them after Xueye gave up his life and started a speed chase with him.

As the investigation progresses, all clues point to the gang leader Victor Sweet.

Victor was originally the little boss of his uncle Ma Kang Sweet, who was killed because he could not bear Ma Kang's long-term beating and scolding, and then he inherited the gang.

But Victor was also cruel by nature, and his men complained a lot.

Bobby soon discovered that Jeremiah's secret business was directly related to his mother's death.

It turned out that Jeremiah invested all his wealth in a city reconstruction project. When Victor learned about it, he wanted to get a share of it. Later, because of Victor's intervention, Jeremiah went bankrupt.

Mother Evelyn has been paying attention to the situation of the four brothers. When she learned the inside story of Jeremiah's investment bankruptcy, she wrote to the police Fowler to report to him.

Fowler handed the report letter to Victor, causing Victor to decide to hire a killer to kill Evelyn.

In order to conceal the truth, Fowler did not hesitate to kill his colleague Officer Green.

Viktor is afraid of the four brothers' revenge, and decides to act first, and then hires a large number of assassins to find a place for the four to kill them. The four brothers started a fierce battle with the killer unprepared, and the youngest brother Jack was shot and killed in the gun battle.

In order to retaliate against Victor, Jeremiah came up with a strategy. He took out all the 400,000 insurance claims left by his mother and used it to buy off Victor's men.

Victor's subordinates have long been grudges because they have been humiliated by Victor for a long time. They bought it for 400,000 US dollars and decided to take revenge on the Bobby brothers.

They lured Victor into the snow in the wild, Bobby killed Victor, and everyone finally threw Victor's body into the ice lake.

The black policeman Fowler was unable to escape after being exposed, and was shot dead on the spot because he was surrounded by armed police and still raised his guns to resist.

Although the revenge of the four brothers took the life of the fourth Jack, in the end, it was considered complete to be able to stab the enemy.

The three Bobby brothers decided to redecorate their mother's house and repair the doors, windows and walls that were damaged by the gun battle. This "home" was rebuilt.

As a crime film, the story of "Four Brothers" is actually simple and realistic.

The film was affirmed by film critics for constructing a family of black and white equally divided. At that time, the "Chicago Sun Times" commented that the film embodies Americans of different skin colors and races in the increasingly divided environment of American society. It can also form a family's political stance, which is the sweet spot of the movie's story.

"Four Brothers" looks like a simple crime film, but in fact it is a hidden family film. Maternal love and brotherhood are touching.

There is a speed chase and a gunfight in each of the movies, and the filming is also very exciting, which is worth watching for movie fans.
