Highlights of shots and music (the editing and shots of this film are really well done, expressing the context of the story very clearly, which is very suitable for this kind of action movie)
1. The opening shot, explain the reason of the story , A gun killed 5 people, but only the hand, not the face, guarantees that it is not clear who the culprit is, leaving a suspense, through the sunrise picture of a beautiful woman just after the passion with Jack, establishes the image of a typical prodigal son in the jacket, With the opening shot of the shot (the main actor's subtitles are displayed little by little, pay attention to the perfect integration of the angle he put the subtitles and the angle shown by the camera lens, which is just right), on the one hand, the suspect Barr was arrested and was about to go to court. The suspect wrote the jacket. Name, on the other hand, Jack took the money, got in the car, walked, and finally passed the sentence "it's impossible to find him", the door opened, and Jack came to the door himself. This opening shot is accompanied by fast-paced music, giving the audience a feast for the eyes and ears.
2. When the jacket returns to the place where "the original hypothesis is that the murderer committed the crime", the thinking guided by Jack's eyes and the step-by-step actions of the perpetrator are used. This kind of shot is very helpful for the audience to think about the case. It is often seen in detective movies or TV series. .
3. In the use of music, it is quite satisfactory. The most impressive one is when the lawyer visited the victim's home according to Jacket's instructions to "respect every victim", and then introduced the story behind each person to Jacket. Shocking the heart, when the nanny ran with the child, because she already knew that she was in danger, in order to comfort the child, she ran step by step and said, "It won't be us, we will be safe." As the rhythm of the music gets faster and faster, Step by step nervousness, when the music reached the highest note, the gunshots followed, and the picture was completely black, leaving behind the heavy sadness of the audience
4. Katie (the girl who was used to lure Jack into the trap) was in In front of Jack's mighty might and strict thinking, at the grocery store, Jack suggested to her to leave the city as soon as possible. The tears in the corners of her eyes at that time instantly revealed a young man who was wise but innocent, and who had seen through every little bit of care and a sincere repentance. The image of the girl is shown.
5. The only victim (the nanny’s father) that the lawyer explained from the camera, the father’s expression was quite tense, extremely restrained in sadness but unable to restrain himself, but he asked her why she had to defend Barr (the suspect), That expression, voice, accompanied by the sad music, was so shocking, and then along with the plot, his emotions were stirred up by the lawyer's suspicion of her daughter's words, the music turned dangerous, and the rhythm increased step by step, letting the audience take his place. Feeling sweaty, the lawyer finally ran out in a panic because of guilt and fear, and then accompanied by the mysterious appearance of his father, which was the basis for her suspicion that his father was the mastermind behind the scenes. This plot made the lawyer begin to believe Jack made a very reasonable explanation.
6. In the last part of the movie, the ending is also quite good. It is a heroic comedy movie with a mild and meaningful ending. Barr woke up and his words (sleeping he didn't know what the jacket did for him) included the best place to shoot, he was framed by the guy who went to the shooting range with him, and he said " Jack promises that if he encounters anything in the future, just find him (this is why he started and wrote his name)", the music is long and melodious, with a kind of confession, with the camera slowly turning to "on the bus". Jack intends to stop the conflict on the bus "
What is justice
" The law is limited, he only cares about justice" is the theme of the film, reflecting on the meaning of justice and law through a traditional action hero film.
There are two most obvious deductions in the film:
1. Jack assists the lawyer and discovers step by step that "Barr", who seems to be the real murderer on the surface, actually has another conspiracy, and the mastermind behind it may be his father or Emerson, Under such pressure, the lawyer, out of self-protection, said, I don't want to clarify the truth and find out, it's not my job, my job is to raise reasonable questions to the jury, and finding the truth is the job of the detective. This is also a limitation of legal positions. To put it more simply, a lawyer is just a position, and there is no position that requires them to maintain justice. This is a very paradoxical and seemingly correct thing. In other words, a lawyer who does not pursue justice is actually It's just an ordinary position, you can support your family and get a little bit of money.
2. At the end, the extreme survivalist old man, before his death, said, "According to the prima facie evidence, the only suspects are Jack and Barr", and then said "I only remember these" (that is, often come, He pretends to be stupid and mentally ill, such a person who is legally protected and tolerated), which makes people think, obviously his evil is so obvious, why the law can't punish him, this is the limit of the law, and Justice is obvious, Jack only does what is right, with clear goals.
This movie reminds me of "The Reader" that I was watching recently. Actually, some court things, the same thing, with different expressions, the court's final judgment may be different, then, if it is a heinous person, very Clever use of the correct and easy to win expression, then it is possible to win the case, here is a kind of sadness of justice.
The same thing will happen to religious and charitable organizations, which are supposed to promote goodness very purely, but because of various interests, there will be weaving. People can become religious leaders, and then control the minds of a group of disciples, and gain personal gains through charity. Benefit. Further, we have to think about what justice is, and to answer this question, then we must understand what we really want? Is it for money or name? So is the path you choose the purest way to get this? If the purpose is to do charity and spread love, then you really need to eliminate some temptations and do some pure kindness on the premise that you can protect your own development. Casualness, fate, joy, then justice and kindness, such a pure pursuit will not be far away.
