Since the advent of money, human beings have gradually become more and more greedy, no longer just satisfied with food, clothing, housing, and transportation, and the money-oriented U.S. has even raised this greed into ideology. Xunzi believed that human nature is inherently evil, and its goodness is also false. In this essence, money has become the source of all evil, and at the same time, it has put on the cloak of civilization for this evil. Because with money, especially cash, you can have almost everything. For example, in the film, more than 600,000 cash made Sam and his wife from two poor people who were struggling on the poverty line and had to do their best to flatter and please the bank manager, and turned into a civilization who dared to mock the bank manager, drive a luxury car, and fully enjoy life. people. But when the debt collectors appeared, their situation took a 180-degree turn, and it was even worse than the past. Why is this?
Fan Zhongyan, a famous official of the Southern Song Dynasty, was from a poor family when he was young, and his classmates could not see it. . Classmate Fan said, I am afraid that after enjoying it, I will not be able to endure hardship any more. so, from the moment the money box hit sam's car, the two of them never went back. The appearance of debt collectors only intensified the speed of this qualitative change. It is certain that even if there were no debt collectors, the Sam family would change their outlook on life, values and attitude towards crime because of this box of money. But if that's the case, it can't be a movie. The drama of the debt collectors and everyone's views on money is what this film is all about.
In fact, all the characters in the film are ugly when it comes to money. A hundred dollars from a debt collector can make anyone talk, a BMW man who guards himself for stealing, an Asian female clerk who would rather die than give money, SAM’s mother who secretly borrows money from a box, a bank manager who pays close attention to money, a treacherous used car Shang, and A, B, C, Ding, who frantically picked up money behind Sam's car at the end of the film... In front of money, they all showed their ugliest side. Our three protagonists are the best.
The debt collector is wise and talented. He is not only a mathematical genius, but also proficient in firearms and fighting, and also has a strong psychological control ability. It can be said that the ability is no less than that of professional agents such as 007, Hunter, and Byrne. But his almost insane paranoia about money was the reason for his tragic death. The hero and heroine he created, one seduced him, the other dared to provoke, and instigated him to rob the bank. In the end, the panic he showed when Sam scattered money out of the car was immediately caught by the two people he created, and it ended. his life. The love of money may have been the source of his power, and at the same time it sounded the death knell for him.
And the male protagonist sam in the film, from the beginning of the ordinary little man to the final burst of male hormones, kill the debt collector. Among them, of course, is the constant oppression of debt collectors, but above all the magic of money and violence. His aggression has been sublimated and expanded from robbery again and again.
sam's wife is the most complicated character in the film. From the anxiety about 600,000 yuan falling from the sky at the beginning to the joy of spending money, from the eagerness to pay the debt collectors to the despair caused by the last 10,000 yuan being unable to repay, from the initial disgust for the debt collectors to several times After the robbery, the worship of power and the seduction of debt collectors, the whole character appears very full. It seems that a woman's heart, the needle at the bottom of the sea is really not fake.
At the end of the film, the clues for making a sequel are given. I don't know if it can be made. But I personally don't think it's possible, and even if it's filmed, it's hard to surpass this one. Because everyone likes to see a prostitute as a prostitute, and does not like to see a prostitute as a prostitute, because the former is cruel but true, while the latter is beautiful but hypocritical. The hero and heroine will inevitably go to the abyss of money and violence, and will also meet the arrival of death in this purgatory.
