The director probably just wanted to say that people are in the rivers and lakes and can't help themselves, but the transformation of the plot is really abrupt and unreasonable. While highlighting the badness of the "bad lieutenant", he makes some corrections from time to time, which seems to be too bad and incomplete, in order to get He was extorting drugs everywhere, but he injured his spine in order to save a prisoner; in front of a drug addict, he was in the street with his girlfriend, but at least he was spiritually loyal and did not turn his back on his girlfriend who was a prostitute; in order to handle the case, he threatened the life of the old lady, But he takes good care of a dog. There are too many contradictions in human nature. The most puzzling thing is that when he colluded with drug dealers for money and drugs, there was a counter-attack at the end, which seemed very abrupt. In such a wobbly tone, the characters are pulled back on the right track from the edge, there is no foreshadowing and no motivation, which makes the ending very embarrassing and greatly weakens the viewing value of the film.
