A movie that has been on the hard drive for a long time, but I always missed watching it. I expected that it would be heavy. After watching it, I found that this film is called Chaser 2. In fact, the film is lighter than Chaser, but the director's tone is more serious. A little colder, Jiunan is a Korean living in Yanji, China. He borrowed money to let his wife go to work in South Korea, but under the pressure of his wife’s absence and huge sums of money, he hangs around in casinos. As a person, the most fearful thing is not to be tired. , but lost hope, which is very obvious in Jiu Nan. He loves his wife very much, so this despair tortures him even more, so if there is a chance for him to escape this despair, he will arrest him no matter what. Live at this straw, but did not expect to fall into deeper despair later, his wife was killed, and he was regarded as a criminal suspect and had nowhere to go. Dealing with the group, looking for the meaning of their own life. In fact, the theme of the film has been narrated very clearly by Jiu Nan's narration at the beginning. The mad dog will bite when he sees it. He exhausted his last strength in the process of escaping, and finally returned to the original place of life. There is a human-like temperament of missing love, and a wild and direct animal nature. Even if there is a glimmer of hope and strength, he wants to live. This is so similar to Jiunan. He doesn't think about the meaning of life. The attachment of his wife, children, and mother will continue to live, but he will still fight all the way to survive, exhausting the last bit of strength, even the various groups around him are the same, the president is red-eyed for killing his younger brother, and the underworld is fighting for revenge Destiny, people who transport seafood kill to keep women, and all the killings, like Jiunan, are because of women, my brother slept with my woman, my woman was slept by others, and it's not me who wants to keep A woman who wants to possess a woman who is not her own, all men are driven by animality to live or die, and in the process consume the last of their strength.
In addition, the author's interpretation of the identity of the Korean ethnic group is also in place. They live in Yanji, although they are all their own people, there is always a little strangeness. When they go to South Korea, it is not their own home. Where should they go to find their inner belonging and identity Identify it? There is no answer.
The only shortcoming is the ending. It would be great if the film could end on the Yellow Sea. The Yellow Sea is so big that it is difficult for butterflies to cross. The sight still returned to the train platform in China, and the sound of footsteps shattered the theme of the original story. Maybe the director wanted to express so many accidents and hopes in life, but in my opinion, it is just superfluous.
