The movies starring Denzel Washington have a kind of thick, profound, full of humanity and thinking. No matter what type of movie, as long as he appears, the movie will be driven and improved by his personal style. Just like this movie, it is a second-class level in terms of script and genre. Whether it is the plot design to the action scenes, or the process of promoting the continuous development of the movie to a climax, it is a small-scale production film that is quite satisfactory. But it is such a small production film, Denzel Washington just pushed his style to a kind of big production performance, the kind of forbearance in the outbreak of calm and restrained, constantly pushing up the performance of the film's plot in performance , focusing on establishing a seriousness beyond entertainment, the continuous waves of climax and surprise make people feel the charm and enjoyment brought by the movie. Watching such a movie is all about appreciating Denzel Washington's performance alone. No matter whether there are any loopholes or shortcomings in the plot, they are all covered up by his gorgeous performance. What's more, the movie is not useless. Although the movie's plot setting is small, it can successfully enrich the entire composition of the story with a sense of rhythm. While advancing the crime, it constantly adds a warm elaboration of human nature. , let the warmth and emotion interspersed in the gaps of each film stage, highlighting the director's comprehensive grasp and careful design of the entire film. In other words, it seems like a second-rate movie, but it brings us first-class audio-visual enjoyment with great value for money. I have to say that the personal charm of actor Denzel Washington is so strong and unstoppable.

At the beginning of the film, the film did not directly express its intentions to foreshadow the plot, but extended the whole context of the story little by little in a more soothing and calm rhythm. Under a relatively weak pressure, the audience's emotions are constantly oppressed through the plot, so that the anger in people's hearts can slowly be fueled and brewed, and when it is about to reach its peak, it will be released together with the leading actors in the movie, so that people do not hold back. Qu, it gives people the thrill of being unable to bear it and no longer has to bear it, and makes the slow rhythm of the plot all of a sudden tense, providing a fast-track-like plot channel for the follow-up development. The film also does not directly rise to the revenge-style storyline for us, but returns to calm after a period of twists and turns, paving the way for the climax of the next chapter, so that the climax will deepen with a short climax. Step by step, the tide will not let us feel the arrival of deeper pleasure. But in the end, because the plot did not well grasp the progress of the times in terms of subject matter, and chose a topical story that was too outdated, people could not help but suspect that the story was backward and outdated, but the director still used it very well. The action scenes make up for the shortcomings in the plot. The action scenes in the movie can be called classic and gorgeous. Although there are some nostalgic tunes, they are revived after Denzel Washington's performance. I am used to Denzel Washington. Washington's performance is too delicate and civilian. After this role change, we can fully enjoy his easy control of the role change. He gives people a very special feeling, very righteous and very likeable, very close to the people and not like that kind of lonely hero, and he is a master who hides in the people. It feels like a surprise to discover a new world. In fact, the director has ulterior motives in his grasp of the plot. He chose a choice that is different from ordinary people's thinking between right and wrong. The plot of the movie seems to fall into a cliché but has undergone earth-shaking changes, but this change is hidden in extremely detailed In the reversal plot, people will not be discovered until the last second.

The biggest highlight of the film is the performance of the actor Denzel Washington. He is the only protagonist of the film. No one can overshadow him. It is not because other people's scenes are not enough, but his performance is really impeccable. Especially playing such a role with a cool appearance and a fiery heart, the kindness and justice in his heart can't help but radiate out, giving people the impression of choosing to believe in trust. Moreover, his performance is very simple, natural and unpretentious, showing a feeling of being himself, as if this is him in real life, not the "he" that the movie asks him to perform. As the director Anthony Fuqua, he does not hesitate to grasp this kind of B-grade film. All kinds of plots and bridges have fully made the scene to the extreme. In line with the film's always exciting and popular, it provides us with a An unbelievable enjoyment. It is a pity that Chloe Moretz's scenes are too short and the performances are too young. He didn't have too much intersection with Denzel Washington, and he didn't have much fun with him. The existence of the vase inevitably makes the influence of the female characters in the movie negligible.

Movies are still inseparable from the flaunting of human nature. No matter which film directed by Anthony Fuqua, there will be a showdown between justice and evil. Although the way the film expresses justice is to suppress violence by violence, the way it expresses The result is very satisfying and satisfying. Because of the nostalgic and bloody justice of this movie, it is very able to inspire the sense of mission that exists in people's hearts to eliminate the strong and support the weak, and make the blood that has been quiet for a long time boil again.
