Wang Laoji (Return of the King, Heroes Late, Mel Gibson ^_^) came back in full clothes, still remember the man with tousled hair, blood-stained face, wearing a kilt, holding a cross sword and shouting freedom Wallace, yes, he is already a typical image of obsession with love and freedom in our hearts, yes, forever "Braveheart".

Standing on the edge of darkness, do you choose to break free from the shackles of darkness, or to plunge into the darkness, don't rush to answer, if the light has been swallowed by the boundless darkness and only a corner of the land, what will you choose?

In this film, the only four characters standing in the light: daughter, father, Jedburgh, and daughter's friend.

During her internship, her daughter found out that a consortium was producing nuclear weapons for foreign forces and wanted to resort to the law, but she didn’t expect that the law was also black, and she was poisoned with cesium and shot to death; her father was an old policeman, and he believed that he had no enemies, so he followed a line of clues. The investigation continued, and the shocking inside story surfaced. The consortium, congressmen, lawyers, and police were all black. The protagonist was faced with such a situation that he wanted to make people curse his mother. In order to uphold his daughter's belief and revenge, he had completely ignored it; This character is an absolute highlight. He has been living in a dark whirlpool. Because he has been involved in dark operations for nearly 30 years, he is used to shady scenes. Finally, when he faces the ugly smile of politicians, he finds that the people, duties, and countries have always been The things he paid for were all bastards in front of his conscience, so he raised the gun and made his own choice.

I just finished watching this film, and the plot feels a little confused. The secret operation of collusion between official and commercial laws was not directly shown to the audience. At that time, I could only give 3 stars, but in retrospect it was very coherent. Some people who didn’t understand it felt empty. The content turned out to be very important for the descriptions that reflect people's hearts, such as the dialogue between Craven and Jedburgh on the bench, 5 stars did not say.

I think of "Operation Hurricane", a dark battle, an open battle, for the sake of my daughter, against evil forces, against the world, it is a miracle that a person does not have a beer belly when he reaches middle age.
