cop to cop, at the end of the film, Charlie Jewell finally couldn't help but ask agent Xiao, you are investigating me, disrupting my life, I can bear it, but the time you waste on me is letting the real criminal go unpunished, What if he commits a crime again, what if a security guard sees this situation next time, and chooses to turn a blind eye in order to avoid becoming the next Charlie Jewell? (probably meaning), which is probably what his lawyer has always emphasized cop to cop", so the lawyer laughed as he walked out of the FBI.

The presentation of this paragraph has two purposes. One is to reflect the above-mentioned "cop to cop" and to perfect the character of Charlie. He is not just a foolish and passive security guard waiting for the truth. He has his own values ​​and opinions. The understanding of this profession and the unswerving execution of it are precisely such a great character that makes him a hero. At the same time, it is logical to explain Charlie's previous behavior. Charlie has been extremely cooperative with the investigation before, so when his mother asked He, why did he defend them (investigators), he said it was not a defense, but an explanation, and then his mother was very angry and told him to shut up (I laughed at this part). It was a procedure he was familiar with as a police officer, so he was willing to cooperate and trust that these people would give him the truth. The second is to point out the theme of this story~ Whether it is the government or the media, that is, some people with the right to speak and influence, for ridiculous purposes, ignore the truth, and arbitrarily oppress a small person who is a real hero. If he has never been wronged If it snows, then the most tragic result of the story is not only that Charlie, the real hero, has been misunderstood for a lifetime, but also, like Charlie's rhetorical question, if the next security guard who finds a suspicious backpack avoids becoming the next Charlie. Jewell and turn a blind eye to the suspicious?

I think the atmosphere created by the whole film is relaxed, watching Charlie De Hanhan find suspicious backpacks, Hanhan helplessly find the real police to drink off those drunk young boys, Hanhan becomes a hero, Hanhan becomes a suspect People, Hanhan was investigated, Hanhan cooperated and was investigated, Hanhan said what the lawyer told him to shut up, the whole movie or the character of Charlie's revealed "Han", and his mother was twice afraid of his son , Weeping anxiously, making this serious story approachable, slightly relaxed and warm. This kind of simplicity and honesty of the characters reminds me of what Chen Danqing said when he introduced a certain painter. They are all white people from the bottom, and the painter himself is stupid. This kind of silly description, Chen Danqing is very praised, favored, and fascinated. And this conclusion here coincides with Charlie's image. I suddenly thought, is it Charlie Jewell or the director of the film?
