It has been praised at the 70th Cannes Film Festival, including some independent film festivals.

Looking forward to this movie

But what's with the disappointment after watching it?

Take the script out

It's a boring story

In order to rescue the younger brother with IQ problems

The criminal Constantine (brother) races against time to get through the night

Constantly turning danger into safety and constantly encountering challenges

Until arrest the next morning - a feeble defeat

neon shades

Is it so easy to rob a foreign country?

It's an absurd robbery farce

Different from the tension of a typical robbery

The lack of understanding and acceptance of the younger brother creates a sense of unease

Sure enough, the plan failed, and the robber Constantine managed to escape.

But his brother Nick was caught and jailed after he crashed into the glass.

in the process of escaping

The red powder on the two people's faces is even on the clothes

Plus the neon lights on the street

The film conveys a tension, anxiety, danger, uncertainty through color

A better representation of the character's psychology and current state

Fast paced and frenetic play

Failed robbery means no financial security for their new life

In order to get his brother out of prison

Constantine still needs to raise enough bail

After the former failed, he thought of another way

That's helping Nick escape from prison

Under the dim lights of the hospital and the wraps of layers of gauze

Constantine rescues an unrelated criminal

completely unplanned

The presence of this man filled the rest of the evening's story

Amusement park is second twist in rescue plan

They want to find banned drugs here and make a profit

So they quickly allied

Disintegrated for profit the next morning

They hide in a stranger's house to try to rest themselves

The arrival of the police made them make different choices

So we saw this

Constantine's face has traces of a night of "fluttered" efforts

He didn't regret the step he took to change his life

neither of us should

But is it possible to change this way?

The film advances the plot at a fast pace

no procrastination

Time is different in Constantine's and Nick's worlds

However, the former still did not "rescue" the latter

To admit I can't take care of him

Konstantin unwilling to be treated as 'abnormal' brother

This is the first time he wants to leave the inherent life circle

Reasons to start a new life

He wanted to give Nick as normal a life as possible

in order to have such a life

He is often unscrupulous

For example, it is unclear whether the interests or feelings between the ex-girlfriend and the ex-girlfriend are not clear.

such as lies with the little girl in the host family to get support

For example, there is only threat and persecution between the "partner" of the criminal at the same time

His life is too dangerous

too erratic

One day he will also implicate his brother Nick.

It's just that Constantine didn't realize it

Blindly pursuing reunion, wanting to take care of my brother

I have an independent personality

Why can't you live independently

beginning and end of the video

It should be quite meaningful

At the end, brother Nick is back where he started

He can no longer live as a normal person

He has to be "trained" with other patients

But a little more tolerance and patience

He can fully bear the pressure of the real adult world

He was rightfully deprived of this right

At the beginning, the younger brother Nick answered the doctor's question with his unique thinking

About sea water about pain

He has an independent personality and thinking

But he still can't live independently

I don't know if the movie is a bit overstated

But the way of expression of consciousness and thought still gives people a sense of freshness


At the end of the article, I want to tell everyone that Guangxiu also opened his own public account
