This is a film full of revolutionary romanticism

The fact that "Elite Troops" passed the censorship of the Radio, Film and Television Bureau is mysterious enough. The theme of the game between a single person and the corrupt system is no longer in line with the overall tone of China's stability maintenance. The subtlety of this film is that you can substitute the A/B/C/D of each link of the interest chain into any corrupt system, such as Central, local, real estate developers, demolitions...

Fatty To me, this is a realist critique, and he was wrong.


This is actually a film full of revolutionary romanticism. In front of the system, individuals are nothing more than Don Quixote who picks up the sword and faces the windmill again and again. The improvement of the system cannot be changed by a Don Quixote. But it needs to be a Don Quixote one by one. At the end, with the help of conscience, the media, and the parliament, a single individual actually shakes the entire system, forcing the chain of interest to divide and reorganize. In some countries, this is simply a magic movie, comrades!

They want us to see a chaotic, manipulated democracy, but the problem is, it's an undeniable hope that such a film could be born in South America.
