I saw a lot of people saying that after Xiaochun was rescued, the old man could revise his confession and appeal, because Xiaochun could prove that he was taken away by the strange aunt, saying that this was a loophole in the movie.
I don't think the old man dared to revise his confession at all.
First of all, when the old man was arrested, he should have been unsure whether Xizhen's mother was revenge, otherwise he would definitely blow himself up because he loved his family so much, and let the police track down the families of the victims 15 years ago. It was unnatural to stop talking when interrogated.
Come to Qinghao's confession scene. Now in the old man's perspective, a policeman who has been tortured for 15 years for his crimes participated in the kidnapping of Xiaochun (the old man did not know that Qinghao had left), this policeman can imitate his own perfect crime, which may also include the assistance of the victim's family back then If you can fuck him once, won't you be afraid that you will continue to be fucked after the confession is revoked? And the old man learned from the conversation that the policeman was unmarried and had no children and was alone. The old man himself had daughters, sons-in-law and granddaughters to take care of. Another group of cops are desperate to confess their guilt, and the old man may have thought that all this was a game from the beginning, all for his own sake.
It is known that there are two kings who don't want to lead a group of super soldiers on the opposite side. They are the king of residual blood, and their bronze teammates are still developing. Except for the six-point shot, they can only act.
In the end, it was the group of police officers who turned a blind eye to the small evidence in order to solve the case, and spoke viciously to the former comrades who sacrificed their lives for the sake of meritorious service. Apart from the conventional criticism of Korean films, this is also a pavement for the old man's impossibility to refute the confession.
To sum up, there are no bugs in this film, the old man's mental journey and the film's foreshadowing are well done.
