What impressed me was that Henry kept emphasizing that it was you who won. But in my opinion no one should be a winner.
Henry has been playing a hard-hearted man who makes good use of torture. He seems to be inhuman, but crying in the bathroom exposed his inner weakness. Later, the torture of the child was forced to stop, but I kept thinking about it. Will he continue if no one stops him. I think the answer is yes, even if he continues to cry. It's another kind of toughness, but it's a shame he didn't follow through, Brody didn't help him bring the kids in. He gave up.
X asked me why he would give up, and I thought about it and answered like this, even the most determined person will be shaken after doing so many things that go against their wishes, even if their beliefs are sincere.
He needed an affirmation, and Brody was the straw that broke the camel's back. It was her "integrity" that made him give up.
Since you all feel that I am wrong, then my efforts are meaningless.
Brody is a character I don't like very much. X said that this character was a failure, and he couldn't see the decision to climb to a high position after being an agent for so many years. Perhaps the screenwriter established this character itself as a representative of universal values.
Torture should not be used on anyone, even if he commits a heinous crime, this is the bottom line of human nature.
She reminded me of a well-known multiple-choice question. A train is running out of control on the track. The driver is faced with three choices. One is to let the car continue to drive, and eventually dozens of people in the car will die; the other is to On the track to the left, three people will be killed and the train will stop; on the track on the right, one person will be killed and the train will stop.
I remember when my brother asked me at the time, my answer was, kill someone and stop the car. And his answer was, let the car go. Since fate has arranged for the dozens of people to die, just follow the arrangement of fate.
In fact, I think that fate, even if it wants to go on, is controlled by people, and it is often a matter of one thought.
Like if I were the driver, I would choose the minimum number of casualties, regardless of whether lives are equal, whether or not everyone deserves respect for their lives.
All results are traceable, this is fate. I don't believe in the "should" that is divorced from people's hearts. It is often an escape from one's own responsibility.
Brody chose to put the equality of life and the light of humanity in the highest position. And the reason I don't appreciate it is because people who can't face the darkest side of human nature can't really save people.
She is a coward in my eyes, someone who desires to control the outcome but has no way to face the means and the process.
The most difficult to evaluate is Young. His request is to make the United States stop wars for its own interests and not sacrifice any soldiers. But his methods were cruel. He used the method of killing fifty-three people to prove to the military that he had this ability. He manipulates Brody's kindness and drives her out of control. He threw himself into the trap because he had no fear and he was firm in his faith. He thinks he's doing the right thing, which leaves Henry helpless, because all the torment on him will only make him bring more honor to himself.
This is no longer a physical contest, but a human tug of war. He forced Henry to hurt innocent people, including his wife and even his own children. His final collapse was also because his humanity was still alive, and he couldn't face the fact that his children would be tortured.
I don't think he committed suicide so that the location of the last bomb could be kept secret, but he was afraid to face it himself. In the face of what Henry said to him, you can see clearly that everything was caused by you.
His wife was killed and his children were about to suffer inhuman treatment. He is afraid of the collapse of his faith, he is not afraid of abuse, he is not afraid of any physical destruction, his softest emotion, his family, is his greatest weakness.
At this point, I talked to X about the difference between men and women. I think women are far inferior to men, both mentally and physically, which is why most of the most cutting-edge talents in all fields are men.
Whether a woman is willing to admit it or not, IQ, physique, no matter how hard a woman tries, she cannot surpass a man. But women have one of the greatest advantages that men can never match.
That is, women can be the weakness of men.
History may be history, his story, his story. Behind the scenes, there is a boost to history, and those who can influence men are often women.
This is a wonderful paradox, and in my opinion, it is also God's will.
The final ending is the most exciting part of the film. All three bombs were dismantled, and everyone was immersed in the joy of victory. The fourth bomb, when those people cheered, quietly arrived at 00:00:00 time limit.
The film ends abruptly at this point.
No one wins, we are all forced to expose our ugliest and weakest sides, and our strongest sides to build a shield against torture and harm.
No one knows what they will become in the end and what will be left behind in their life after so many torments and setbacks. Whether people's hearts will be subtly eroded, and doubts about themselves will linger.
That's the best part of the movie.
