Forcing Liangshan

I watched this film at the beginning when I was in college, and it was interrupted because of a temporary incident. Two years later, I came across this film again, so I revisited and continued from midnight at night.
The dark and cold tone runs through almost the whole film, and the killing and revenge are staged in it, which is neat and exciting. On the contrary, the bright colors and the magnificent seascape that burst out at the end were deliberately done, which meant it intentionally. It seems that this film does not make Hanks come on board. It seems that it is enough to arbitrarily pick a middle-aged and powerful male movie star. In such a scenario where the two powerhouses confront each other, the villain is always more brilliant (the perverted killer played by Banderas in "The Last Assassin" is far better than Stallone's one-of-a-kind ace). Jude Law in the film is a breakthrough, but unfortunately there are too few shots to make it happen.
In the same theme of the shooting film, this film is only average.

  • Finn McGovern: You tell your father my brother never stole from him. I've checked the books. He never sold no booze to no one. Every single barrel is accounted for. Anyway, if he stole it, where's the money?

    Connor Rooney: The fuck should I know? Did you check his mattress?

    Finn McGovern: Or maybe you should check yours.

    Connor Rooney: Look, there is something immoral here. Don't you think so, Mike? My beloved father throws your undeserving little brother the wake of his life and-and this, this is your "thank you"? What a hideous world this is.

    Finn McGovern: You think you're so smart? You think we don't know? I mean, you've been spending so much time in Chicago...

    [Connor takes out a pistol and shoots Finn in the head, and a machine gun battle ensues]
