This is just my personal opinion. I don't really like the movie "Nightcrawler" because I don't really agree with the values ​​in the movie.

The film tells the story of a punk who eventually becomes the boss of a news company. This should have been an extremely inspirational story, but the description of journalists in the play made people lose their appetite. I'm so tired of loving the whole movie.

I admit that in a society where our definitions of news are becoming less and less boundless, the vulgar, low-level stuff fills the front pages of news. However, the value of news is not to witness the whole thing happen and record it, but to make this society a better and more valuable place. From this point of view, I don’t agree with the choice of characters in the play. In the face of a murder case, I can shoot calmly, instead of thinking of calling the police. Later, I designed a confrontation scene between the police and the murderer, and sacrificed my own life by the way. Teammates, this kind of thing may not be sanctioned from a legal level, but from a moral level, it is a moral loss. Therefore, the inspirational story of such a low moral person's ultimate success, in my opinion, is like swallowing a fly and feels disgusting.

The three views of the story are not correct, in fact, it does not mean that this is a bad film, but it will feel that the director and the actors have successfully created the characters. Maybe the director wants to remind us not to lose our moral bottom line through such a role. In other words, the director also truly reflects the existence of such people in society. After all, existence is justified.

Other than these, I can't find any highlights of this movie. Maybe my appreciation level is not enough.
