At the beginning of the film, it appeared as a farce of collectively catching chickens.
Rush, slaughter, group fights, robbery, hama, powder addiction, drug trafficking, turf war, gang formation, and a series of gang killings are full of humor that makes people want to laugh.
The three young heroes want to do bad things and have no courage to commit murder, so they can only pretend to be in the middle of the day. Do you also think about a sentence that was said by a cohabiting girlfriend? I really don't want to laugh.
The little gangster aspires to be the big boss, and uses the extremely cruel and unrecognized methods to become a big devil who does all evil and is feared by everyone, but he can't even soak a woman. After finally being rejected for inviting dance, she could only rely on humiliation to embarrass her boyfriend to vent his anger, get pleasure from rape, and provoked a deadly enemy, and was almost buried. The arms that had no money to force other people's arms were searched and extorted by Tiaozi, and his entire fortune was wiped out. In the end, he was hilariously shot and killed by a group of children he had insulted before. The death was terrifying and exaggerated. A tough boss? engage!
The photographer gave up revenge for self-protection, endured humiliation, and was forced to do bad things by life, but he was too timid to do anything. He wanted to give his first night to the lover of his dreams, but he was almost abandoned and finally did it The career I love is eaten by the old woman. By chance, I took wonderful and wonderful photos that could become famous in one fell swoop, but I didn't dare to post them. In the end, I finally became a trainee photographer, and I also changed the name of a unique cultural fan.
As for the little gangsters, what they say and do, their minds and behaviors just don’t match up. They cry when they are threatened by the boss, and they cheer loudly when they kill the boss. After the world is ours, we talked about it on the way back. A distant unknown - the Red Guards.
It's unbelievable to cry. But it's funny, but their ignorance and the ridiculous idea of ​​trying to prove themselves a man by burning, killing and looting is so stupid to the point of shocking, in this forgotten place in Rio de Janeiro, in this famous God City, the evil continues, and there is no sign of it stopping.
