Human judgment

This film is intended to explore human nature and caring for these profound meanings. Without the old woman, without the video tape, without all the evidence, who would defend humanity, who would punish the dehumanized demon, Nicholas Cage, as the judge and enforcer of the ultimate trial, would execute these rubbish and sordid things.
In the face of the law, when everyone's indifference and inaction allow the evil to take advantage of it. The evil that destroys human nature is arrogant in the eyes of everyone because of the blindness of the group's conscience. At this time, where is justice? Justice was in the old woman’s kind and uneasy eyes, in the attorney’s cowardly and frightened and helpless tones when faced with the roar of the detective, in the muzzle of his gun that changed direction at a critical moment, and silt out of that one. In the perseverance of the untouched aspiring young people. . . However, the power of these surviving human natures is unable to resist under the pressure of reputation and money. Therefore, the director let these characters finally use the split of soul and body to vent their hatred of evil, numb to everyone, indifference to torture and confrontation. I am weak and helpless.
So in the end, who will hear the trial, who will pronounce the verdict, and more importantly, who will execute the just verdict. A detective is the best candidate. He can obtain evidence by virtue of his wisdom and skill, so he can judge; the conscience lashes and guides him to make a sentence; justice and humanity give him strength, and finally he completes it and allows justice to return. In the play, the director used the young man who sold pornographic magazines to show us his logic: saints can only be twisted by evil, but cannot change evil, so there is only one way to eliminate evil-destroy it. In the end, the "machine" with primitive animality was dealt with, the numb and indifferent bystander died, and the director of the scene of human nature was also dead.....At the end of the play, when the detective calmed down and seemed vaguely suspicious of his trial , The girl’s mother’s letter once again gave a strong answer—the annihilation of humanity, no matter who under the guise of the hand, to be punished is a delightful thing even though it is only for one or two people.
I think this is the real intention of the director! !

    The snuff in front of the dark web is super visible! devil changes you! The last part is extremely enjoyable, and the Korean movie is possessed. After reading it, I feel chills down my spine. The most brutal person is actually the most ordinary person. He is right next to you. He does this just because he likes it... I deeply feel that this is the darkest moment of human nature.

    Max California: He's a producer-slash-director-slash weirdo. He's like the Jim Jarmusch of S & M.
