[There are a lot of spoilers below! 】
From the point of view of the movie itself, from the first second, there are a lot of details buried in the plots that follow.
Every part of the movie seems to have a key word. At the beginning, it was the "leg", the male protagonist's injured leg because of breaking the door, the entangled legs of the couple who stretched out the quilt, the legs of the robot that can walk and jump autonomously researched by MIT students, and the pulleys of the disabled marathon runners. After the explosion, it was the injured leg, the leg that left the torso.
Then the key word changed from legs to "eyes", the closed eyes of the amputee patient in the operating room, the dark purple eyes of the young wife Jessica on the hospital bed, the eyes of the FBI brother who was staring at the monitor who was very tired but continued to persevere, The male protagonist has been rubbing his eyes and pinching the bridge of his nose because of long hours of work.
Then there is the "car". The male protagonist drives a police car to patrol every family in the middle of the night. The school's security brother is on duty in the car from day to night. The Chinese brother was hijacked. vehicle.
Then, it is the echo before and after the million dots.
The younger Chinese brother, Dun Meng, mentioned the new Mercedes-Benz in front of him, shared it with his family in China through a video call, and repeatedly mentioned that the car is very expensive. But after being hijacked, he repeatedly asked "I don't want the car, let me go"
Brother Bomb was very envious of this car. He praised this car many times and offered to drive it, but Brother Bomb refused to let him drive, and he finally got his wish. Brother crushed it (if you don't crush it, you may not have to die, but it is estimated that the goal of the eldest brother is to court death)
When the FBI boss and the mayor quarreled about not releasing photos of suspects, the mayor said that "Bostonians will help the police and provide clues for Boston's sake", which is a matter of belonging. It's a pity that the people who knew the clues happened to be a few international students, and they happened to be there when they found the clues, so there was no sense of belonging. Without this loophole, if it wasn't for the coercion of Fox TV, the school security brother Sean might have survived.
It's also a matter of belonging, (hope I remember the name correctly) the small town cops in watertown showed a very strong sense of belonging in the face of the Bomb Brothers. Even if the police car has been beaten into a sieve and bombs are thrown around one after another, the police have not shown a little bit of flinch. They borrowed the car to cover the machine gun, and even climbed a few walls to flank them when they were old. , and the homeowner who threw a hammer at the cops for the cops to turn over the bad guys, and the sister who was shooting shotguns among a bunch of well-equipped snipers on the roof. "My town will be guarded by me, no one wants to replace me"
In addition, the old grandfather who climbed the fence and flanked him was addicted to cigarettes, but he left his cigarettes at the door before entering the breakfast restaurant and did not bring them in; after the shootout and explosion, he sighed, "It seems that I have to quit smoking" ( In my opinion, it is probably a realization that life is precious).
Many scenes in this movie are like the hero and the police say when they emo in the daytime: "Can these be prevented?". Like many of the echoes mentioned above, it seems that there is a trace of everything that has happened, but we have no trace of it until it happened.
It's like no one will know until the photo of the suspect is released whether it will bring clarity or cause more casualties, but you have to move forward. The goal of human life is not to "not die", so many things cannot be prevented.
What should I do after the accident happens? It would be too hypocritical for me to write "Love can save everything" in the film review, but it is true, after the accident, those figures running towards you with thick smoke, those who run Protecting the homeland in the dark, the support and love from strangers and family members will become the first driving force to push people out of the shadows.
Did you know that it was a true story at the end?
I only read it once and only intend to read it once. There may be some people's names and place names that I can't remember clearly.
