      My humanity is in the fact that I want his revenge to be successful

He is such a selfish person, but he makes most people feel comfortable. Maybe this is a principle that many people want to follow, but no one can perfectly follow it.

      Speaking of this movie, Clyde, who was inexplicably deprived of a happy family, could not see the thugs get the...

      Self-censorship of creators from the movie "Law Abiding Citizen"

      Why does self-censorship by creators happen? In general, we all have to think carefully. The creator's self-censorship, what happens if it happens, and what happens if it doesn't happen. For me personally, self-censorship by creators is not just a momentous event, it could also change my life. For me personally, self-censorship by creators means a lot to me. Leonardo da Vinci said a philosophical saying, boldness and determination are worth the sophistication of weapons. I hope...

      Unlike some rubbish people who only dare to go to the bus or kindergarten to bully people who are weaker than themselves

      My rating: 8.5

      Film review:

      A group of robbers ran into a home and killed his wife and daughter in front of the man, but the murderer was only sentenced to three years. In the face of the court's verdict, the man said nothing, because it was useless to say, he walked out of the court and disappeared.

      10 years later, he started a series of revenge. After catching the murderer, he tied him...

    Evaluation action

    This film is the latest work directed by F·Gary Gray, the director of "Ace vs. Ace". It also adopts the mode of confrontation between two heroes, telling how an originally innocent law-abiding citizen embarks on the road to breaking the law, but it is different. However, "Ace vs. Ace" finally ended in a reunion where the two heroes shook hands and talked and pulled out the black hand behind the scenes, while "Law Abiding Citizen" had...
