no hero

Everyone in it is a person who is forced by life. For the sake of profit, they can collude with each other, or they can draw guns against each other.

There are some settings of brotherhood in it, imitating and borrowing the romantic heroism of John Woo, but it is not enough, because everyone in it has a dark heart and no heroes.

The policeman who gave the drug dealer with black money is a good husband, brother and father, but the dedicated policeman owes his family again and again, and in the end, he was almost killed because of his greed. Neat, and those brave and tenacious Russian gangsters. Everyone is multi-faceted and cannot be evaluated.

The final ending is very weak, and people can't see where their future is. I only know that the big black brother is going to die, and the character played by Paul Walker is also revealed, and he can't run very far.

This is a doomed ending, a symbol of life, whether vigorous or wretched, the ending is the same. So the director had to stop there in the end, because the main theme or the victory escape is not reliable, let the audience comfort themselves.

So I give it three stars and it's only worth that amount. But if the domestic blockbuster is compared with it, such as Shenma Fei 2, Shenma Hawthorn Tree, Shenma Earthquake, not to mention the rotten three-gun, you don't even have the qualifications to compare. Those domestic things are completely 2 cents to buy a chicken butt - it is not an object.
