five star

I rarely give five stars, but after wrapping up this three 48-minute film, I finally couldn't resist giving it five.

Actually, I was wrong, I shouldn't have watched this movie. I just want to take it easy after my damn vocabulary exam, why pick this one. . . . . . It's all the fault of the name of the movie, what kind of rescue! ! ! Makes me think of those mentally retarded hot-blooded Hollywood movies! ! ! I thought it was nothing more than a cold and autistic special man who was inspired by the sunny and cheerful child and regained his confidence in life. Then the child was kidnapped and the hero began to save blood. Then he woke up in the hospital and the child sat next to his bed and told him that it was okay and then From then on happily ever after.

I never imagined that the plot would be so complicated, and I didn't worry about my desire to watch a mindless drama to relax. Guessing the plot was so tiring.

Tired of killing people, Creasy spends all day drinking and hanging around, and finds a job as a bodyguard on the recommendation of a friend. The corner of his mouth was slightly mocking when watching him drive, I think this job is too simple for a special soldier. It's just that when he said that he had a problem with alcoholism, his eyes suddenly sank, like a ray of light suddenly disappeared.

Little Peta, as soon as he appeared, I was fascinated by the world. Platinum hair, blue eyes, beautiful. It's just that there is a little melancholy in her eyes, and her young face always has a precocious expression. But when she grinned, all the features came alive. Her sense of Creasy was astonishingly accurate, and it was immediately obvious that he was unhappy. She likes to ask some questions that ordinary children won't ask, and then turns her head stubbornly when she can't wait for the answer, putting on a very serious and serious look, but it always makes people worry that a tear will slide down the corner of her eye at any time. .

Then there's the clichéd plot where Creasy helps Peta train to swim and then takes her to the competition. The nun smiled and said, today you are her father. A stunned Creasy walked around the pool like a normal dad until Peta threw himself in his arms. He smiled, cheerfully. I thought to myself that it would be fine if the movie was filmed here, and it would end so warmly.

police car. gunshots. Peta came downstairs. Gorgeous smile. scream. run away. Scene after scene flashed past until Creasy was hit and fell to the ground. Peta finally couldn't help but ran back. She choked and shouted "I can't!" in a voice that was almost screaming.

Why are children always so kind, innocent and cute? Why do such kind, innocent and lovely children always want to hurt them and take advantage of them? Those people really should go to hell, from the first floor to the eighteenth floor.

After waiting for the kidnapper to call, wiretap, and track, it turned out that the police ambushed and stole the ransom. It really makes me sick. If the kidnappers should go to 18 levels of hell, those black-hearted police officers should enjoy all kinds of torture designed for them. Never overbirth.

Creasy begins the journey of revenge, calmly, calmly, pulling out the people involved one by one. Seeing this, my psychology is very complicated. On the one hand, it is very satisfying to see the bad guy being punished, and on the other hand, it is sad to see Creasy picking up the "art of killing" that he abandoned and discarded. Every time he sank into the swimming pool, his face was expressionless in the drenched blood, maybe the pain in his heart surpassed the pain in the body, or he healed the wound with misses and memories.

In the end, surprise and surprise flashed across Creasy's face when he learned that Peta was still alive, then nothing. A life for a life. Maybe it's relief, maybe it's just a pity that I can't participate in Peta's growth process, in short, there is no turning back.

Perhaps what moved me the most was the last hug. Don't care about the muzzles around you, just smile and comfort. I can guess the final outcome, but I still look forward to a miracle. Peta kept looking back. Fright and anxiety on his face. The chain fell from Creasy's clenched hands. it's all over.

At the end of the day, the police came out to clean up the mess and made a majestic report. Anyone else remember Creasy? After all, the police are incompetent, and can only rely on an outsider to clear obstacles for themselves. Ironic. Eat black. Black eats black. Eat black.

The background music is nice, and the sad notes are jumping.

PS: The male protagonist's friend said it very familiarly, why can't I remember who it is. . . . . .
