procrastination movie

Full of hope, I watched it on the premiere day. The shooting at the beginning was very emotional, and then the black policeman who appeared on the scene was slightly happy. It turned out that the people who were happy at the beginning were still very happy afterwards. The title of the film is Xia Detective, so after watching it at the beginning, you probably know that the main idea of ​​the film is how the detective named Jack solves the case. For some reason, this setting reminds me of Sherlock Holmes. However, the drowsy rhythm of this 130-minute film can't match the efficiency of Sherlock Holmes's one hour, one episode, one case. This side tried hard to make myself fall asleep without watching it, but I didn't know that there were already people in the movie theater sleeping until snoring. This is the first time I've heard other people's voices in the cinema. Having said that, does such a not too difficult case need so much foreshadowing and plot? A friend joked that if she was the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, she would definitely cut the film in half. I believe that if you cut half of it, the audience can actually understand it. The heroine wears less clothes, one of the few American humor, and Tom's handsome face with a little vicissitudes is probably the biggest attraction of this show. Oh yes, and that black cop who made me happy from the start. The film did not explain why he betrayed, well, maybe this is not the point, nor did it describe him too much, so he was directly killed by Tom. As for that boss, I thought he would involve more characters and events, otherwise why would the hero and heroine discuss the profound meaning of his English name so seriously?
If I was eating popcorn and drinking Coke at home, and then swiping Weibo to watch this movie, maybe I would not have so many complaints and complaints. But as a movie I watched in theaters, it really disappointed me enough.

    It's quite satisfactory, very traditional and uninspiring, there are not many bright spots, and the ending appears to be procrastinated, and it is generally qualified.

    The case is okay to settle the case, but Tom’s jack is really unacceptable, and there is no way for people to enter the inner world of the character.

Jack Reacher quotes

  • Sandy: [Sandy, Jeb and four other guys all surround Reacher outside a bar]

    [to Reacher]

    Sandy: You still think you're funny now, creep?

    Jeb: Shut your mouth, Sandy! No one is talking to you!

    Jack Reacher: It's your last chance to walk away.

    Jeb: [chuckles] Are you kidding? It's five against one.

    Jack Reacher: [shakes his head] It's *three* against one.

    Jeb: [perplexed] *How* do you figure?

    Jack Reacher: Well, once I take out the leader, which is you, I'll have to contend with one or two enthusiastic wingmen. The last two guys, they always run.

    Jeb: Oh, you, uh, you've done this before?

    Jack Reacher: [reluctantly nods] It's getting late.

    [Jeb moves in]

    Jack Reacher: Remember, you wanted this.

    [Jeb smiles and swings at Reacher, who ducks and elbows Jeb in the forehead, who falls to the ground]

    Jack Reacher: It's okay.

    [helps Jeb up]

    Jack Reacher: Get up.

    [kicks Jeb in the groin from behind, Jeb groans and Reacher pushes him aside with his foot. The other four move in closer]

    Jack Reacher: Okay, let me know who's who. Let's get this done.

    [Reacher easily takes down the other four, with him holding the last guy's foot under his arm. Two of the guys get up and both stare at Reacher with fear]

    Jack Reacher: Really?

    [kicks the last guy in the chest, who screams as he falls to the ground. The two guys run away as the cops come. Sandy runs away as well]

    Cop: [points his gun at Reacher] On the ground.

    Jack Reacher: That's a pretty impressive response time, fellas.

    Cop: Do it!

    [Reacher reluctantly gets down on the ground, next to a groaning Jeb]

    Cop: Hands behind your back.

    Jack Reacher: [to Jeb] Who hired you?

  • Jack Reacher: Look out the window.

    Helen: No, I've work to do.

    Jack Reacher: Just humor me.

    Helen: And you need to leave.

    Jack Reacher: Okay.

    [Grabs Helen's arm and starts to pull her to the window]

    Helen: Let, let go of me.

    Jack Reacher: Would you tell me what you see?

    Helen: I see the same... things I see every day.

    Jack Reacher: Well, imagine you've never seen it. Imagine you've spent your whole life in other parts of the world being told every day you're defending freedom. And finally you decide you've had enough. Time to see what you've given up your whole life for. Maybe get some of that freedom for yourself. Look at the people. Now tell me which ones are free. Free from debt. Anxiety. Stress. Fear. Failure. Indignity. Betrayal. How many wish that they were born knowing what they know now? Ask yourself how many would do things the same way over again? And how many would live their lives like me.
