It's easy to break a good deck

In real life, there are countless people who have experienced the same experience as Jacob. How many happy families were ruined by pornography, gambling and drugs, how many talented young people lost their futures because they violated the bottom line of the law, how many people with wealthy families were forced to jump off the building by loan sharks, there are too many, sometimes even just a single thought, which makes people fall in love. His greed, curiosity, laxity, and complacency prevailed, and he eventually smashed a good deck of cards, which is embarrassing.

Therefore, in the long road of life, we still have to walk steadily. We must adhere to our principles, stay vigilant at all times, abide by the law, do not do things that violate public order and morality, and do not take chances and make excuses for ourselves. Remember that no one is going to pay for your mistakes, and if you make a big mistake, you could pay for it for the rest of your life. If you are lucky, God will give you another chance to be a human again; if you are unlucky, you will fall into the abyss like Jacob.

The rhythm of the film is compact and not procrastinating, and it is very burning. It makes people look like adrenaline is soaring, perhaps too much pursuit of continuity, flaws in the plot, and weak psychological details. The love between father and son was brought to tears. Although Jacob could no longer be whitewashed, his love for his family never changed, and he also protected his family until the last moment. Good gangster movie, recommended.

Shot Caller quotes

  • Bottles: The fact is, we all started out as someone's little angel. And a place like this forces us to become warriors or victims. Nothing in between can exist here.

  • The Beast: These cops think the more they lock us down and isolate us it strips us from our power, they even think we are a dying breed, they're dead fucking wrong.
