Everyone has a way of talking to the world.
We love Andy (The Shawshank Redemption) because he did things we wanted to do but couldn't, wanted to do but didn't dare.
This matter allows the world to be opened correctly; this matter is the pleasure and value of being a human being.
"One Shot"
The poster has an obvious sense of gangsterism.
Years of pride and bloody actions are definitely inevitable.
If I tell you it's really a prison movie, and it's directed by Rick Roman Waugh.
For those who understand him, the small stove on his body is immediately lit.
This is a director who is very good at crime themes. "Prison Life", "The Informer", "The Hammer of the Sky" and "My Bullet Will Turn" are all his works.
The director has a characteristic, he can get highly praised films from fans, but get bad reviews from film critics.
The reason is that he is particularly good at "learning" classic movies and using them in his own works, which is enough for the audience to enjoy and not care, but film critics are more serious, you know.
For example, his famous "Prison Life" has an 8.0 rating on the fan-dominated IMDb and a 6.0 on the critic-dominated Rotten Tomatoes website.
In this film, who did he learn from?
The male protagonist is a top-level handsome pot, and many people are familiar with him.
In the cosmic drama "Game of Thrones", he played the monarchist and incestuous James. At first, he set people up to be angry with gods. Later, he was gradually whitened by the screenwriter, and now no one wants to let him die.
Danish actor - Nikolaj Coster Wahl
Nicola plays a stockbroker in this film.
The job is stable, the food and clothing are worry-free, the wife is beautiful, the children are obedient, occasionally confidantes have a drink and brag, watch a game and fly a plane, a wealthy and worry-free middle-class small life.
Do you think of anyone like this? OK, go on.
A car accident completely changed all that.
At a party, I drank a little alcohol, drove under the influence of alcohol, had a car accident, my friend died on the spot, and the other driver was lame.
If it goes to court, it will be sentenced to seven years, and if it is private, it will be up to ten months.
The hero chooses the latter. It was this decision that made his life go away.
What he never expected was that it took him a full ten years to get a chance for parole after only ten months in prison.
Because the prison where he was held is completely a jungle society, if it is not hard enough, he will soon receive a box lunch.
From the very beginning, the male protagonist began to use his fists to prove that he was "not easy to mess with".
In prison, if someone accidentally bumped him, he would immediately push that person to the ground and beat him violently.
Such a move may be useful in society, but it is not enough in prison. You must know that everyone here has a "splendid" past.
Therefore, the male protagonist seeks the blessing of the prison gang.
But this comes at a price. The first is that chrysanthemums are poisonous.
From then on, it got out of hand, assassinating informers, participating in gang fights, and gradually revealed his talent.
His stature in the gang is also on the rise.
Among them, various entanglements and struggles, he thought of rejection countless times, but when he thought of his wife and children at home, he still gritted his teeth and insisted on continuing.
Just as his sentence was about to end, in a prison fight, he was photographed with evidence of beating, and he won the grand prize, and his sentence was extended to ten years.
He was also upgraded to a cell for felons.
Ten years passed, and he became the second brother in the gang by virtue of record after record.
The long-lost freedom is approaching again. It should be an opportunity to wash off the dirt and be a new person.
But the boss gave him a new task, using the safety of his wife and children as a bargaining chip, can he not do it?
After being released from prison, he entered a new mystery. The undercover, the boss, and the police were in chaos and danger.
The police promised him that as long as the confession was made, the safety of his family would be guaranteed.
Back in the cell, the boss asked.
The coercion of the police and the oppression of fate made him want to control his life.
So he—Jang simply became a veritable underworld elder brother.
The original name of the film was called "SHOT CALLER", and it became "The Final Word" when translated into Chinese, which is very apt.
Because the development of the plot is as if there is a hammer in the dark, and it is determined that the male protagonist is doomed from the moment of the car accident to be unable to reunite with his wife and children, to leave the underworld, and to return to his previous life.
Sometimes, the deviation of one thought can really make too many differences.
If the male protagonist behaves a little weaker after entering prison, he may be as indescribable as the black brother, and such days are only a few months old.
But from the point of view of a man's dignity, this may cause a lifetime of shame, and even if he is released from prison, he will not be able to lead a normal life.
There are no assumptions in life, always plan for the worst for the person you love the most.
After the male protagonist killed the boss, his face was bloody and embarrassed, but his heart was relieved.
He accepted the finalized fate. Even with the reputation of the underworld, he still had his beloved wife and children in his heart.
The narrative of this movie shatters the timeline. While telling the process of arms trading, it tells the "hard" life of the male protagonist in a way of memory.
This is very similar to "The Shawshank Redemption", and even the two protagonists are financial people.
The difference is that Andy chose brain holes to fight the system, while the male protagonist chose violence.
Although it is a prison-themed movie, many vivid stories point to the prison of reality.
It seems that there are roads all around, but you are not given multiple-choice questions.
There is only one way to go: even if you have no dignity, you must hold on and don't lie down.
At this time, you are not just you, you are your family, your lover, and the place where all good beliefs go.
When justice is absent, that legendary righteous man is you.
