The Chinese translation of the name protector, this translation is indeed a bit uninteresting, but after watching this film under the premise that I thought it was a comedy, I changed my opinion.

The male protagonist Arthur is an ordinary person who always shows up at night with the dream of a superhero who is a guardian of justice and fights injustice. , the intelligence is not normal, his door is not called Door, but Defendoor; the toy dog ​​on his card is not called Dog, but Defendog. His mother was taken away by drug lords when he was a child, and he only grew up with his grandfather. He always wears a tight black suit, wears a steel helmet and has black eye circles. He appears in the streets and alleys of the so-called "Hammer" town. Seeing the injustice and drawing a knife to help him is the belief he always implements. Then, sometimes accidentally got into a hooligan, but he ended up with bruises all over his body.

Four people appear in the play to drive the development of the plot. One is Kat, a prostitute who he disturbed at that time was "serving" a policeman who was colluding with drug dealers, the other is the policeman Donkey mentioned in the previous sentence, and the other is his friend. His foreman, Carter, who works during the day, and a Korean psychologist.

The harsh reality, the trauma of his heart since he was a child and the loss of his mother, however, he hated people who smoked drugs and drug dealers. After the little prostitute was injured by a thug once he rescued a young man who was graffiti on the wall, he reminded him of his mother, and lived in the residence of his abandoned workshop. Kat's original bad habit is hard to change, and he is always doing nothing and taking Arthur's money to buy drugs, but Arthur has always regarded her as his friend and won't allow Carter to call her a prostitute. During their short time together, gradually, Arthur's persistent belief in ending the big drug lord, the clues he got from her mouth, sneaked into the enemy's interior, never brought a gun or body armor, and after several fatalities, he insisted on helping her put Her father, who had a tendency to sexually abuse children, threw it into the trash and risked his life to save her after he came back from the hospital. She was moved by him, but it was too late because Defendor had come alone in his truck When he arrived at the place where the drug dealers were trading, he was robbed and killed by the drug lord.

What makes Arthur so different, there's a snippet that illustrates the problem, the court's conclusion after a conversation with Arthor by a psychologist from Korea: Fetal Alcoholism Syndrome, ADHD, Depression, Hypothesis, Does not consider the consequences of behavior, lacks common sense, and cannot adapt to society. Arthur disagreed, still clinging to his own beliefs, and growing up under the shadow of his mother being taken away by drug lords and killed, and fighting these evil forces with justice alone, he said himself that he was not afraid of death, and that he was righteous and dignified. Courage, his famous quote: "Only a coward uses a gun".

In an unstable society, for the sake of protecting everyone from danger, maybe no one can give Arthur a satisfactory answer, and the advice of ordinary people is difficult to persuade him. That's the question of his friend Carter's son, Jack. Because of the resistance to evil forces, the power of ordinary people seems very small and powerless, and Arthur's idea is simple, but he perseveres to the end, and finally loses his life. Arthur's low IQ in ordinary people's eyes is actually just an appearance, he knows how to calculate the month Due to the lack of time, he speculates on the specific transaction time of the drug dealer, and he will also follow the police's request to capture the video tape evidence, just like Forrest Gump, it seems ridiculous to outsiders. This is also the reason the film gives us, the courage to persevere to the end and unremitting efforts, these are the spirits that we lack and need to learn, this persistent innocence.

The last warmth in the play, when Kat was crying with Arthur, who was lying on the ground before being shot several times by a drug dealer, Arthur expressed his love for Kat and told her to stop taking drugs, find a job, and go Writing as a writer and saying that he will see her on the moon, his mother left him as a child and told them they would look at the moon at the same time. Those who mourned Defendor laid flowers on the graffiti wall, hoping for his Fight Back!

It can be said that the film gave me a real touch.
