review is 100% original, please indicate the source for reprinting] When agent Wasam laughed at himself after being cheated for the last time and pushed the plot to a climax, a sentence in the agent’s memories was combined with some plot fragments. Together, I instantly felt the depth and height of this film.
The first depth of the film first derives from a sentence of the agent interrogating the old man Sharon in the memory of the agent: When the agent asked Sharon, "This is just the four of you, but how did you spread the news and cause chaos, Sharon answered" People like him help us as well" (people like him also like to help us). When
Sharon replied, the camera pointed to police officer Ranveer Singh (Ranveer Singh), and also hinted that Ranveer had become an interspersed in the real world for the gang of four. The spies in the CBI laid the groundwork for the subsequent plot. The
question is why Sharon said that "people like him also like to help us".
At the end, it is not difficult to see that the reason is that the gang of four generously helped them. Compared with the low income of police officers at the time, the temptation is obviously irresistible. In a
word, a change reveals that people were crazy for money and sold their lives for money at the time. The social situation; and some small details (such as the large amount of stolen money obtained by accepting bribes in the home of politicians) also reflect the loss of people’s principle in front of money. The so-called money can make ghosts persevere, and there is no difference between police officers and politicians. And this This was the case at the time, why not it is now.
However, is the spread of this phenomenon only because of people's greed? Are these really the loss of people's principles? The video tells us that it is not. This leads to the second depth of the film: the wealth of politicians is in sharp contrast with the low wages of ordinary workers, which reflects the oppression of the next officials by the upper-level officials and the government; the social class and its influence are also quietly revealed and become people. Another reason for working for money. The heads who boldly accept bribes and the businessmen who evade taxes wear gold and silver, but the conscientious inspectors can't tell the truth. On the one hand, this contrast reflects the status of lower-level workers and the oppression of the government; on the other hand, it also provides sufficient reasons for people to accept bribes and betrayal. In the society at that time, it was impossible to live a good life with conscientiousness and integrity; to live a good life either embezzled public funds, accepted bribes, and took the hidden illegal road, or defrauded, looted, and took the obvious illegal road like a gang of four. .
In the film, the agent told his superiors that he had never received a salary increase or promotion, and asked his superiors for a salary increase, but the answer was still rejected, and the superiors gave the reason that the superiors were already unable to make ends meet. . In the conversation, the agent said, "My family is going to be overwhelmed, should I start accepting bribes?" This sentence showed a great irony, and it also fully demonstrated the theme to be revealed in the film.
The story takes place in the 1980s, but the film was shot in 2013; this shows that there are many things in common between today's society and the time. Even today, there are indeed few officials who are incorruptible and have made a fortune. The detection of so many corruption phenomena in my country's anti-corruption actions in the past two years is also a true manifestation of the characteristics of people still working for money today.
At the end of the film, after receiving 100 rupees from Ajie, Vasam, a dedicated agent, received a clue about Ajie from the headquarters (live TV), but turned off the TV in the end. This also implies that Vasam will eventually find it difficult to escape into the camp of working for the money, because 100 rupees have given up tracking Ajie. In almost the entire film, Vasam, a conscientious and honest agent, was eventually manipulated by money and did not perform his duties. It is a great irony of social money worship in the film.
Finally, for the leader of the four-person group, Ajie, did he really fail to enter the CBI? Or has he already joined CBI, but because of his dissatisfaction with the CBI work pay and the hardship of life, he turned to become a CBI pretender? Looking at the situation of Agent Vasam, and then looking at Ajie's keen eyes and skilled investigation process, it is easy to deduce the fact that it is most likely the latter. The oppression of life and the unfair distribution, the huge economic contrast between corrupt and honest officials, eventually led Ajie to embark on this path, not only brought himself an excellent material life, but also vented the contrast in the process. Dissatisfaction.
Regarding the plot, it can be said that this film has ups and downs and is very exciting. In many cases, various situations suggest that the next possible outcome is this one, but in fact it is very different from the suggestion. Especially the fact that police officers are spies, it is estimated that many people would not have thought. The middle game of the four-man game is predictable, but many details in the film (such as agent Vasam interrogating Sharon late at night, Sharon telling the plan) let you deny this prediction, making you watch the movie normally. Under the circumstances, it is still not quite sure what the outcome will be.
In the process of watching the movie, at the beginning, I guessed that Agent Vasam eventually assisted the quartet and got away with the quartet, because his financial situation and the dialogue between him and his superiors left a deep impression on me. The impression made me suspect that he would eventually join the group of four due to the pressure of life and the temptation of money. When I saw the scene where Ajie and Wasam met and had a conversation in a hotel, I guessed that Ajie would take the opportunity to persuade the agent Wasam to join them, but in fact it didn’t. It also created another big thing for the film. suspense.
But in fact, although Detective Vasam did not waver during the hunt, he finally changed after receiving Ajie's money order, turned off the TV and gave up the investigation.
Finally, there are many ironic easter eggs in the film. I don’t know if you have noticed that the number of CBI recruited by Ajie is 26, which is exactly the same as the number of Detective Vasam’s special operations team (27-spy Ranville = 26). Is it a coincidence that Ajie recruited 26 people? I don't think it is. This is a manifestation of Ajie's knowledge of the agent Vasam team. Furthermore, this is an excellent performance of the spy Ranveer's work, highlighting how hard people can do things driven by money, and is closely tied to one of the themes of the film. The whole film takes the art of irony, contrast, and suggestion to the extreme, exposing the social chaos that runs through the past and the present.
