Ruthless Killer - Incomprehensible

This film has a high rating and I watched it with anticipation. The story rhythm of the film is still very compact, although there are no ups and downs and confusing plots, but it can make people watch without getting bored, so from this point, I only give 6 points.
When you see the ending, it ends so quickly and abruptly, and the protagonist's behavior is incomprehensible. Looking back to analyze the character of the protagonist, it is still incomprehensible. The protagonist of the film is a lone killer who is silent, ruthless, restrained, and even makes people feel emotionless. Such a person gives me the feeling that he is out of reality, because there is no such person in reality. Let's imagine that a person is alone in the world, with no ties, no support, no matter what the reason, killing is his only skill, the only thing he can do when he is alive. Under this circumstance, he gradually learned and became a completely ruthless person. He had no family relationship at all, and it was impossible to have friendship in terms of conditions, let alone hope for love. In this situation, his life trajectory was already doomed. That is to be caught or killed one day. If the film is just to describe a profession that looks "cool" - a killer, then it is a well-established and successful sketch film. If you have to find any connotation, I really can't see it. If you look at the film's artistic point of view , Watching experience Watching this film is not so attractive, but it is just taking "loneliness" as a gimmick.
But to be honest, the protagonist is really cool, in line with the aesthetics of narcissists.
Speaking of the ending, the way the protagonist died is indeed unpredictable. Assuming that the protagonist is desperate, knowing that he will either be caught and sentenced to death, or that he will not be able to get along in the underworld, so he chooses a method of death and is beaten to death by the police on the spot. In the end, there are no bullets in the pistol, which can only be understood as a weak and meaningless resistance of the protagonist to not admit defeat before dying.

    Jazz interspersed with no feeling at the end, coupled with Delong's lonely figure, the theme of a lonely killer will always have love Jeff, a top hat, Leon, a small round mirror How many souls of innocent girls have been taken away? Reno is silent, tall and mature, and lured out a group of uncle-controlled haram movies. It's all your fault that you can't find a target.

    In the famous noir film, Alan DeLong's cool to the extreme shape has influenced many directors, including Wu Yusen, Wang Jiawei, Peng Haoxiang and so on. The film is very delicate in terms of graphics, photography and sound effects. Coupled with Delong's handsome face and shape, it is simply a classic. The movie was originally called "Samurai", but it is obviously not much related to Japanese samurai. The plot is too simple, some far-fetched, some pretending to be cool, and it’s a pity that it has been played many times
