The most touching affection

The opening scene is a pond with floating corpses under the moonlight, and I felt that this film was very depressing from the beginning.
It didn't take long before the daughter was killed. In the arms of her father, beside her father, she was heartbroken and speechless.
With the development of the plot, there are repeated bits and pieces of the daughter's childhood with her father in the film, and the childhood warmth is repeatedly rendered, which forms a strong contrast with the dark main line in the film. Especially the part where the little girl learns to shave, it's so cute, I just cried while watching it.
The main line is that the father is looking for the cause of his daughter's death. Although someone told him that this may end him, he still has no hesitation and continues to move forward. This is family love. It is not as short-lived as love. It is not maintained by hormone. It accompanies a lifetime and is eternal.
Fighting against several groups with interest connections alone, the outcome can be imagined. But the father will not regret it, and the enemy turns out to be in the shaking, because in the end she is with her daughter.
In the end, a middleman, although he had no children of his own and did not enjoy the affection of his descendants, let go of the guards in the name of affection, because he dreamed of his father and fell for others.
The purpose of life is to struggle, pursue, and even sacrifice everything for the loved ones who care about it.

    Day, can this old and smelly script be rewritten again?

    Mel Gibson is too old to be 54 years old for this movie about how a father exposes the government. The beginning is very tight, but the investigation process in the middle part is too lengthy, and the explosion at the end is very enjoyable. Maybe it would have been better if the two-hour movie was shortened to 90 minutes.
