There are many ways for people to succeed. Those who have knowledge and arm their minds become the strongest, and those who have intrigued and staged thirty-six strategies to win the harem step by step. There is also a most direct and bloody way, which will always force you to keep going, and that is drunk driving. Yes, that's right, in "Doctor Strange", Chuanfu drunk and drove a Lamborghini and disabled his hand, so he joined the Eastern Emei School to learn the unique magic circle technique. The same is true of "The Final Word ". It is not a story derived from any conceivable artistic plot at all. It is a story of drunk driving and going to the peak of life.
"The Final Word" can be said to be a relatively good-looking gangster crime drama in recent years. Moreover, the film also has a certain amount of artistic color. Its unique camera angle and location make this work not boring. But it was full of helplessness. Selling arms and drugs, prison fights, killing for survival and all the elements of a gangster movie are all in the film. In the display of the bloody plot, the film also gives the most intuitive close-up of the lens, without hiding or expressing it sideways, but to show the audience the violent plot of the white knife entering the red knife.
The male protagonist in the film is played by Nicholas, who plays James in Game of Thrones. He is called Money in "Finish the Final Word", and his nickname is taken from the financial career he did before he was imprisoned. There are two layers of meaning, according to the cowardly character of playing basketball before a car accident and being hit by an opponent, because the workplace needs to maintain the relationship with colleagues, and only one person in the family has an income, so he is afraid of losing his job . The other layer is that after being imprisoned, he has to embark on the road of gangsters. In order to protect his family and pursue status and interests, the word "Money" also represents power to a certain extent, and it also means that soldiers who do not want to be generals are not good soldiers.
The overall aspect of the film, the plot is divided into two, two-line narrative. Taking Money's imprisonment as the starting point, one timeline tells the past events before he was imprisoned, and the other timeline tells the stories that happened after he was released from prison. The two lines seem to have little connection, but in fact the intersection is obvious. The past drives the present, the future reflects the past, no link is empty, the links are bound to be interlocked, and any motivation for Money's actions is taken from the center of the family. The stories in the two timelines jump and flicker back and forth, forming the entire plot development of the film, and the blandness does not appear boring, and even the audience will be completely led by the nose without any resistance.
In addition to having an excellent story line, the film also hides a deep emotional line, that is, the father-son relationship between Money and his son Joshua . Although Money still had a wife and children before going to prison, a series of additional sentences after going to prison made his wife disheartened and divorced. The divorce of the parents cannot be the reason for the son to abandon his father, and the father does not want his son to see his dirty side. Therefore, this emotional line in the film can be said to be extremely complex and tangled. On the one hand, the son wants to invite his father to come back to live, and on the other hand, Money is threatened by the gang and the reality that he cannot stop the ship.
Everything has its destiny, Money returned to prison again, and successfully protected his family in exchange for life imprisonment. There is such a scene in the film. Money's bail officer has a good life for him, but he is going to go to jail. Those who come out and mix are destined to be helpless, and it is simply unrealistic to rely on plans for a lifetime. The charm of "Finish the Final Word" is not the legendary story of Money, but the person Money. He will kill anyone who threatens his family, and he will still let him go if he knows a lot about people who don't want to join the gang. , which is the maximization of personality charm.
There are not a few gangster movies , but very few really tell the story behind the gangster boss, and some are in the form of documentaries, and there are few thankless dramas. Although the movie " Done " has a dramatic story boost, it doesn't have a joke. It reminds people of the "must" things we have experienced, the things we have to do even if there is strong resistance. There is no difference or disagreement, only whether you want to live or not, although you and I were both parents' babies. (Text/Omiear)
