Another combination of a tough guy and a little loli

The highlight of this film is the little girl Fanning. I feel that this girl was born for the movie, just like Xiulan Dengbo back then, but she is not taking the cute route, but the loli route. Her acting skills are no less than that. A first-line movie star, of course, she should also be a first-line movie star. The feeling of the whole film is similar to "This Killer Is Not Too Cold", the combination of a tough guy and a little loli, but the warmth part is relatively more. Denzel Washington also played well, with a unique tough-guy style and a whimsical way of killing people that made Reynolds' ruthless style more interesting. The sharp and artistic editing style is also Tony Scott's signature feature. The shortcomings of the whole film are that the styles of the front and rear parts are somewhat disjointed, and it feels like two movies, which is not as good as "This Killer Is Not Too Cold".

The last things I don’t understand: 1. The heinous kidnappers let the little girl go directly, aren’t they afraid that they won’t pay your brother back? 2. The little girl caught by so many people died after so many hardships. In the end, the kidnappers let them go. You can send a thug to catch them... Probably not dead. 4. The actor is not afraid of the kidnappers failing to fulfill his promise and catching the little girl back? I want to put together literary and artistic actions, it's hard to shoot!

Pita: I'm trying, Mom
Lisa: Good news. You're going back to school
Pita: When?
Lisa: Samuel is going to hire a new bodyguard. It may take a few days, but you're going back
Pita: Could he speak English? Emilio couldn't speak English.
Lisa: We'll see. And thank your father in the morning. A man always needs to be thanked.

Pita: [showing him around his room for the first time] That's "Bird." Emilio forgot to take him with when he left.
Creasy: Who's Emilio?
Pita: My last bodyguard. He drove me to school in the morning and picked me up in the afternoon
Creasy: I'm here for you?
Pita: In between you can take Mum shopping and to lunch. Does that sound all right, Mr. Creasy?
