See how innocent people die

There are always some people who believe in some miraculous things.

Such as religion, such as aliens, such as love, such as convincing people with virtue, such as cosmetics, such as heightening shoes...

And they are willing to pay for what they believe in, even if they encounter setbacks, blows, or even isolated.

In the movie, George Bruni doesn't look like him at all - he doesn't have the boldness of a general, the smugness of a thief, and the composure of sailing a boat against a perfect storm - he just believes that he can really use staring eyes Change the opponent's consciousness, and even kill a goat.

However, it is not because he believes in superpowers that he is naive, but because he firmly believes that through supernatural powers, it is possible to subdue soldiers without killing them, and to change the slaughtering nature of war.

Kevin Spacey also believes in superpowers.
He is not naive.

He bravely experimented with supernatural abilities to achieve all purposes. He did not need the bottom line of human innocence, did not care about the dignity of others, and did not worry about karma. He laughed at his reverence for nature, and even more at his devout gratitude to the sun.

Interestingly, Kevin Spacey plays a man who insists he is an alien in another film, K-Stars.
He used his firmness to treat countless mentally ill people around him—in fact, these mentally ill people were just abandoned, stubborn and cowardly good people who were coerced by a powerful economy and society—and then he led everyone to believe He will go back to his own planet.

What's even more interesting is that Broad Bean, a very rational friend who has always been very rational, also firmly believes that he has indeed returned to his own alien planet, and the dead lying on the ground is nothing but the body of the earthman he borrowed.
I don’t know if this belief in broad beans is naive or not?

Anyway, the world really doesn't need naive people.

So, George Bruni ended up running into hiding.
He believes that the main reason why others can't see his superpowers is that he was broken by a Chinese stunt - acupuncture. And this stunt is said to have killed China's best fighter Huang Feihong - 18 years after he was targeted.
And the instructor who trained him was also down to drinking, and had to work with Kevin Spacey, who had been his subordinate, to study electronic technology for the Iraq war.

Japanese director Iwai Shunji, who filmed "Love Letter", also made a movie "Dream Traveler". The three young men and women who escaped from the mental hospital naively searched for what they thought they should believe. In the end, they found the "Bible" and believed that the end of the world was coming. They gently raised their guns and committed suicide. Promise is much more ethereal and solemn.

At the end of "Murder by Eyes", the reporter who interviewed George Bruni watched the last two super warriors smile and follow their ideals, liberate the captured prisoners of war, and open the Black Hawk helicopter, which is said to fall and die in Iraq of a place.

This reporter is actually the same as the people in the mental ward in "K Star Stranger". His career failed, his marriage failed, and he fled to Iraq, hoping to find a miracle to change his life. What about George Bruni? And what about his mentor? Seems like a loser in life too.
And this reporter recorded what he saw and heard, naively thinking that he could wake up the world, and then one day when his beard grew long, he seemed to have really learned how to pass through walls...
I don't know if he really went out through walls , but in such a high-rise building, going through it may only be equivalent to jumping off the building to death. Because innocent people cannot survive in this world...
