It's amazing to see

I don't know if I'm watching the abridged version. It's inexplicable from beginning to end. At the beginning, my wife's funeral, and then a group of people who I really don't know where they came from. They say they are Miao people, English or Mao. They live at the junction of Southeast Asia, Vietnam, Thailand and China. , Do Americans only have a racial concept and no national concept? No matter what, the screenwriter has to designate a country for them. Is there only a difference between Asians, blacks and whites?

And the part about Eastwood and the Miao old lady spitting, how disgusting and disgusting! ! ! Since you think yellow people are disgusting and you still spit, are you disgusting? I vomited watching the old lady's yellow soup. Does the screenwriter have to be so exaggerated?

Besides, Dongmu, a veteran who came back from the Korean battlefield, to be honest, the Korean War was called "the forgotten war" by the Americans, and the people in the United States really don't know as much as China. But I really don't understand the meaning of this identity in Dongmu's movie, in which he said "I don't know how many Korean devils like you I killed in North Korea (the subtitle translation I read is like this, in front of North Korea and behind South Korea, it is actually a word , the English translation will not be repeated, if you know how to understand naturally, please ask Baidu Zhihu), use your corpses as bunkers to spend the cold winter nights." Then ignore the Miao people in Southeast Asia and he is fighting in Northeast Asia. The Korean War was no more difficult for the Americans to fight than the Vietnam battlefield. Dongmu hates Asians so much because the aftermath of the battlefield has inspired the original racial discrimination. The winning side will not ignore the advantages of the opponent, and only the loser will recklessly smear it. opponent. Here, his status as a veteran cannot reflect his so-called sense of honor and justice in the movie. It can only be used to give him a reasonable reason for having an old gun. After all, it is a military gun.

After that, let’s talk about the plot, let’s talk about it first. In the version I watched, there was actually a gang of gangsters who raped the heroine and beat him up? ! Then the heroine chose not to call the police because the same family couldn't sue each other or something. I don't understand, why didn't you call the police when he was like this? You are planning to integrate into the US imperialist society and you are still clinging to it? Then why are you coming to America? What are you still doing in this family? Why not choose to leave? If the female protagonist is still a student or has no source of income, etc., it is acceptable and understandable, but what are the thoughts of this group of Miao people? From the beginning to the end, this group of people are people who eat melons. The old man brought justice to him and gave him food. The heroine was raped and persuaded to calm down. Then why did you give the old man food? You are not a black family when you come to the United States. Why don't you drive the gangster out because of your unity? Anyway, he is also a Miao nationality. What can he do to your group? Second, why don't you move? Next, why didn't the hostess' family move? Even if you move to another community, will it work? ! The heroine has said that she must leave when she is in college, so why don't you leave now?

Then there is revenge. Dongmu is very smart. If the gangster kills his own gangster, he will be caught by the police and sentenced to a heavy sentence, but who is his target? A gangster or a bunch of gangsters? What if there's only one pony who shoots the gun? If only the bastard shot, what about the rest of the horses? If your only goal is to kill the gangster yourself, can you kill him silently? I don't believe in the system, I think that violence should be suppressed by violence, and I choose to use the system to end everything. I really don't understand this logic.

In fact, I have always disliked Dongmu. The role played has no logic of emotional transition. It is the same attitude as PPT. Because of the type of early Westerns, there is not much need for emotional transformation. The logic is rigorous and humane, but I am the following movie. I really don't like it. This movie I think Dongmu is suitable for this role, but the script and all the actors except him can only be holy****.

Finally, the most ridiculous thing about this group of ABA (America born Asian) is that their parents came to the United States to make a living, and then had offspring. This group of ABA did not identify with their native country and felt that they were Americans, but they also Always emphasize that you are different from white and black people and have your own characteristics. To be honest, you really agree that you are an American. There is no problem at all. You are no longer in your own country. Don't promote the native nation as your so-called spiritual core. Your core must already be the United States. Otherwise, you will be an American, or you will return to your country, and don't engage in complexes. No one likes it.

My opinion, if you don't like it, don't spray it.
