The plot of the old-fashioned police and gangster films is nothing more than rendering the bloody scenes of fights, and even subverting right and wrong black and white, which is the most unbearable.
A police inspector who is corrupt and involved in gangster drugs, and a black gangster who started by fighting and selling drugs. Two people who can do anything vicious for the sake of money, who do whatever they want in the monopoly of pornography, gambling and drug market, actually have a "world-shattering" brotherhood and loyalty.
I am more disgusted with this kind of police and gangster films, and have established the villain as a positive role. In the face of big treacherous and big evil, deliberately exaggerating some small kindness and small tolerance.
If you can't stand your younger brother being victimized by drugs, you should also think of thousands of other families who have been victimized by drugs. As a person who has been trying to make money and sell drugs for a long time, he has a heavy original sin, but he has no trace of repentance, only downright anger and revenge. But do not know, there is a kind of bad luck called karma.
Compared with the classic gangster movie "The Godfather", the protagonist in it has a kind of helplessness to be forced to do evil. When his wife and children are implicated, the protagonist feels a kind of repentance from the bottom of his heart.
Comparing the two, which one is higher and which is lower, the original form is established. "Chasing the Dragon" is only at the low level of Young and Dangerous. "The Godfather" is questioning human nature and the society.
