A must-see for new people in the workplace

Personally, I think this film is of great significance to a rookie who is just entering the society. Although there are too many eye-popping filth and darkness in this world, I always believe that people are doing it, God is watching, and good and evil will be rewarded in the end. Maybe we can’t get out of the mud without being stained, and the world is turbid and I am alone, but what should persist is to persist, because without the small scale in our hearts, we are nothing.
I appreciate Ethan Hawke's performance very much. There is a strong force in Wen Tun, which cannot be shaken. Maybe his slight weakness in the first half is for the sake of the pros and cons at the end, rescuing the girl who was violated, and being unmoved in the face of huge sums of money. In the end, just like Russell Crowe's down-and-out policeman Richie in the American gangster, this kind of slow-tempered and even a little sulky person is often the most persistent. And the girl Ethan rescued in the film was actually the cousin of the gang boss who almost killed him in the end, and it was because of this that he was saved from death. It seems that although the film exposed the shady inside of the police, the main theme still preached justice and Cause and effect.
Maybe it's because of preconceived notions. After watching this film after watching American gangsters, I always felt that Allen Zuo played by Denzel Washington would be a decent character. He was deceived many times by his seemingly sincere eyes and his seemingly low-key self-promotion , has been looking forward to the final truth and Jack (Ethan Hawke) for Alan Zuo's understanding. I didn't expect the cunning Denzel to deceive me so thoroughly~Khan~ Compared with Alan Zuo's arrogance and unscrupulousness in the film, I still prefer Frank who is inscrutable in the American gang but has his own set of values. , Denzel's iconic smile plays the role perfectly!
