The body dies, the soul lives

It happened to be this movie that I watched in two parts, the first part found the soul, and the next part regained the soul.
The veteran has long been trained to be a killing machine, and alcohol is to some extent an antidote to temporarily forgetting the pain, and the looming scars on his hands pull him back to what seems to be a bloody reality. In this way, a seemingly old-fashioned story is about to appear. Veterans, changing their names and surnames, hiding in the wild, but returning to the battlefield for some kind of responsibility or ideal. Scott, however, wrote a different version of the story, an impulse for redemption. Little Loli completed the consolation to a strange uncle without advice, and the strange uncle was willing to exchange two lives for one life in order to regain his faith. At the end of the movie, I was very worried about Denzel's IQ. Obviously, he could save his life, but he just exchanged the kidnapper's younger brother for the little loli, but he also took it upon himself. In fact, thinking about it the other way around, he has already completed his redemption, and his hands have been stained with too many people's blood, and his body is already a corpse, but his soul has survived for a long time because he has found the power of love again. Just like the overused phrase, it will always live in our hearts

    The story of the film is not bad, but it has the same problems as the director’s predecessor "Domino." , For an action movie, too large a length is really unnecessary.

    The script is actually quite vulgar, one after another, and finally reversal of the plot to make a gimmick. The film’s success can be attributed to the following three points: Fanning’s cuteness in the first half; Washington’s ruthlessness in the second half; and the high efficiency of Koster’s entire film, which makes the amount of information super large but does not burden the audience. The editing is fast as if dancing to the beat of the music.
