The identity of the two of them, Paul: CIA senior agent, former Russian spy, killer Cassius. Gilley: Russian spy, young CIA agent, led to kill Cassius. So under the contradiction of dual identities, the drama begins its story with conflict. The background is the undercurrent of the hypothetical Russia and the United States. Of course, there is no need to imagine it. It can be said that it is true. The story of spies and counterintelligence begins. The comeback of the serial killer. There is also such a plot in "88 Minutes". Of course, he is to overturn the conclusion that the murderer is guilty and prove that the prisoner is still at large. Here is a trap carefully set by a hard-edged young detective. Paul wanted to jump out of this complicated mud algae, he wanted to wash his hands in a golden basin, but fate did not let him go. Come out to mix, always have to pay back. As an astute and resourceful killer, he still has a weakness, that is his wife, and the biggest hidden pain of his wife's death is also the reason for all the turns and tragedies of the story, and also the point of inference of his behavior. So when he met Gilley because he had a wife, he let go of the idea of killing him, which further threatened his life. Of course there are some reasons, seeing Gilley is like seeing a younger self. Of course, people can't help but think of why those bloodthirsty masters are so lonely. They themselves say that it is because of their deep sins, but they are actually afraid of their enemies seeking revenge.
So, when all the identity secrets are revealed, Paul ends with death. Of course he died passively. But his death was indeed a happy ending. To protect his own reputation, he is a CIA agent who died in the line of duty. It's more likely that he's tired, and he wants to end it all, this sleepless, tossing and turning day. Every time he goes home at night, he has a feeling of being watched. With the secret repression of the two major situations of the two sides, he cannot fight against one of them by himself. He is just a pawn in the game between the two sides. (Because the person who can keep the best secret is the dead person) Of course, if he's not dead, the story movie gives so.
There are also some scenes I like in the film, such as the reasoning about the case. List all the clues, from points to lines and then connect them into faces. Seeing this reasoning scene for the first time in Beautiful Mind is probably the way that is actually used in the United States. In the end, everything is connected into a cobweb-like answer, and its final direction is the conclusion. There is also the hypothesis enumeration method, which is also used in tomb robbing, and is not biased by personal feelings. Assuming the answer is no, list the reasons for the no. Assuming the answer is yes, list the reasons. And then refuted one by one. Too much confusion makes it difficult to make correct judgments. Moreover, the killer's method used the metal wire hidden in the watch as the murder weapon, so it can be said that the murder is invisible. Every time I see that some personal items in some plots can kill people, it turns out that it is indeed possible, there is nothing you can't think of, only you can't do it.
So, that's it for this movie.
