This movie shows the same meaningless redemption operation as S in the book "S. Theseus".
The Seven Warriors tried their best to teach Mexican villagers how to use guns, and at the expense of four warriors, they helped the villagers run away from the bandit group headed by Calvera, and returned their freedom to the villagers. The end of the movie is a perfect ending like a fairy tale.
But the truth is: Who can guarantee that the next band of bandits will not invade this village? Will they have the guts to use their guns or ask professional gunmen to fight off the robbers? Or, will they continue to suffer from gains and losses, and tolerate a relatively comfortable life?
Without enough courage, even if the villagers learn to use guns and hire gunmen, they may not have the courage to try to resist when they encounter more terrifying robbers in the future. To teach the villagers to use guns, it is better to first teach them the courageous spirit of not fearing power. With bravery, the villagers will really actively look for ways to permanently defend their homes.
