A few words after watching the film

It's been more than ten years since I watched this film. The sky is full of scarlet, dust is flying around the old oil drilling machine, and the surrounding human environment and everything that comes with it are rough. Of course you can blame all of this. The original sins accumulated by the exploration industry bosses are like the guidance of a living god, but "you" is such a fart, burying you in a desperate place, coupled with the disabled legs during work, you can survive in every possible way. It is not easy. The two levels of good and evil, yin and yang are like peeping at the front and back of a silver coin in parallel. "Iron Pill" took advantage of all the conditions around it that could be used by me, buried all the thoughts of love and righteousness, and created a "dungeon" in this fiery red sky. The ultimate "ideal".

The scene of the bowling ball in the hands of the perverted demon at the end may be beyond everyone's expectations, and it also makes two hearts tremble. , When the heinous demons VS falsely fabricated god sticks, at least they smashed the materialistic stubbornness that deceived family members and hated powerful religions.

Daniel Lewis presents another heart-wrenching performance after a middle-aged person. With this extreme abuse film, the golden age of acting talents in the heart is gradually drifting away.

The best film in 2007, "Blood Is Coming" VS "The Shape of Water" ten years later, the soulless special effects have become the traffic standard that dominates public viewing in this era.
