It was called Hummingbird when it was released in the UK, but it was changed to Redemption when it was released in the United States. I have to say that I still prefer the name Redemption, which is more direct, and at least it won't mislead others into thinking it's an action movie. . . . The film revolves around how the veterans and the nuns redeem each other. The tone has always been cold, with no ups and downs, just like the weather in a corrupt country. Veterans seem to be an eternal topic. Their youth is so extraordinary that when they no longer have the energy to live this life and return to society, they find that they have not been integrated. At this time, he will often give up on himself. Like Joey, he is even worse, and he is still wanted by the military court. At this time, he hadn't contacted his wife and daughter, there was nothing worth pursuing in life, and he was struggling to survive every day. Later, he met the nun, and it seemed that he had someone worth caring about in his life. He was kind by nature, and with the nun's advice, he was quickly "redeemed" by the nun, and he knew that he could be a good person. Redemption generally goes both ways, and Joy also released the nuns from her chronic self-suppression for a while. Although the nun asked to leave later, everything seemed to be business as usual, but Joy had left an indelible influence on her heart.
At the end, Joey said, I tried to be a good person. He once wanted to be a good guy, but too many people wouldn't allow it.
PS: This film proves that Jason still has acting skills, the excited and hesitant little eyes when shaking hands with his daughter~
