Time is a ruthless butcher knife

Yesterday was the last day of my husband's holiday duty. In order to reward him, I invited him to watch the movie "Jack Reacher". Actually, it's mainly because I want to meet Brother Ah Tang...
Eating delicious food and looking at handsome guys, what a pleasant life! But as soon as Brother Atang appeared on the stage, he confirmed the saying "time is a ruthless butcher's knife", and he has become Uncle Atang. The years have made him mature a lot, but I still prefer Tom, who was suave in "Top Gun".
Compared with other films released at the same time in cinemas, I still feel that imported American blockbusters are more interesting, and the cost performance will be higher.
Let's start with the story. It tells the story of Barr, a retired American soldier, who is involved in a murder case. Barr was sentenced to death or life in prison under current U.S. law. The district attorney's daughter, Helen, served as Barr's defense attorney. Barr demands to find the mysterious Jack Reacher. Jack was a top graduate from West Point, spent most of his time in the military, and later retired, and almost no one can find him unless he wants to be found.
Tom was just beginning to think that Barr was guilty and deserved to die. Because he had killed people before when he was in the army, but he was pardoned for other reasons at that time. But after layers of investigation and several life-and-death trials, Tom found that he was innocent. In the end, Tom and the old cowboy rescued Helen and killed the real murderer, the undercover agent and the big BOSS behind the scenes.
The storyline is full of tension and suspense, and there is no lack of Western-style humor, so when people are watching, they can feel a little relax for a moment. Tom's good figure only appeared once in the play, which is not enjoyable. I thought it was going to be a passionate call with the heroine, but it was replaced by a cold joke. Tom went straight to bed and asked Helen to pick him up in two hours. Cough... As soon as this episode was broadcast, the audience was full of sighs... Until the end, Tom did not spark with Helen. Looking at Helen's disappointed little eyes, our hearts were aching. .
I wrote so much first. Generally speaking, it is still good, and everyone is welcome to read it.

    I was so bored, the dumb puzzler must think that he is extraordinary, IQ is too high, and the chatter is speechless.

    The story reminds me of the ABC murder incident~

Jack Reacher quotes

  • [Reacher is visited in jail by Helen and Emerson after the bar fight; he is facing away from them]

    Jack Reacher: Hello, Helen.

    Helen: Am I wearing too much perfume?

    Jack Reacher: Breathing too sternly. Detective Emerson. Somebody dead?

    Emerson: And if someone is?

    Jack Reacher: Then they died of shame, because I was being gentle.

    Emerson: I'm starting to understand why you move around a lot, Reacher.

    Jack Reacher: So no one's dead.

    Emerson: One guy likely won't ever walk right again.

    Jack Reacher: You want to charge me.

    Emerson: Very much.

    Jack Reacher: But no one's pressing.

    Emerson: Sadly, no.

    Jack Reacher: [finally looks over at them] Am I free to go?

    [Emerson nods and then turns to leave]

    Jack Reacher: Hey, Emerson!

    [Emerson turns back around]

    Jack Reacher: 4862681.

    Emerson: What's that?

    Jack Reacher: It's the serial number on Barr's rifle.

    [Emerson leaves, Helen steps to the bars]

    Helen: [quietly furious] You're working for me, do you understand that? So everything you do is a reflection on my firm. On me.

    Jack Reacher: I was set up.

    Helen: You're talking to a lawyer.

    Jack Reacher: There was this girl. She came onto me. Picked a fight.

    Helen: Which never happens in a bar.

    Jack Reacher: She was thrown when I told her my name.

    Helen: She was expecting "Mike Tyson"?

    Jack Reacher: She wasn't expecting Jimmie Reese.

    [beat]

    Jack Reacher: Yankees second baseman.

    Helen: Why did you say you were a Yankees second baseman?

    Jack Reacher: I always use Yankees second basemen. I didn't say I was a Yankees second baseman, I just said --

    [stops, realizing he's getting nowhere]

    Jack Reacher: Look, the point is, she was expecting to hear Jack Reacher. She knew who I was. And the cops were rolling before the fight even started. And those five guys are her brothers? Come on. Somebody sent those boys to put me down.

  • [Helen answers her phone while her father and Emerson are in the room]

    Helen: This is Helen.

    Jack Reacher: [on the other end] I'm guessing the police are there?

    Helen: [quietly angry] Yep.

    Jack Reacher: By your response, I'm guessing I have about 30 seconds before you hand them the phone.

    Helen: If that.

    Jack Reacher: If you believe someone could frame Barr, you have to believe they could do the same to me.

    Helen: I suppose that's possible.

    Jack Reacher: She was a sweet kid, Helen. And they killed her because of me. They want me to run. But I won't. I'm gonna finish this.

    Helen: No, that's not a good idea.

    Jack Reacher: Listen, two things. One, I... I stole your car.

    [Helen makes a "Seriously?" face]

    Jack Reacher: If you want to end this, just hang up the phone and report it missing. And I'll understand.

    Helen: And anything else?

    Jack Reacher: I thought I'd be pushing it if I mentioned this earlier. Now I guess all bets are off. You need to watch what you say to Emerson and your father. I think one of them might be in on it.

    [Emerson and Helen's father both now realize Helen's been on the phone for a while]

    Helen: [trying to end the call] All right. Thanks for calling. I have to go.

    Jack Reacher: Wait. I've been followed from day one. Only three people knew I was here. Emerson, your father and you. You need to ask yourself, "Who has the most to lose if we clear Barr?" Who tried to warn you off me? Of course, I could be wrong. If you think I am, just hand over the phone. There's no sense in getting any deeper.
