documentary-like feature film

I've seen Manslaughter 2, and the reviews are very bad. The title says that it was adapted from this, so take the original movie and see if it is the original pot.

Chen Sicheng said that it was an adaptation and remake, but in fact, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a reproduction. The original version honestly talks about the problem of poor people who lack effective medical insurance and cannot afford to see a doctor. More people feel their disgust for the police, and the condemnation of the rich is only a few words. For manslaughter 2, the common suspense of Chen Sicheng was added, which is the adaptation part. The Health Bureau worked with the senior officials above to sell human organs. The confrontation between the rich and the poor was changed to the gang of bad officials. unstable factor.

Forced to use a tiled positive sequence to tell the story, the context is clear, but it is too bland. The only thing that moved me in the whole play was the place where the male protagonist decided to shoot himself in exchange for his heart, but I don't know if it was a editing problem in my version. When the male protagonist was about to shoot the second shot, it suddenly turned to everyone being saved. . This has been explained so clearly before, why bother to sell suspense here...

The movie explains the sense of disobedience in Manslaughter 2, why all the good medical resources are concentrated in a small Chinese hospital, and the powerful robbed other people's hearts and had to operate in the same hospital; It is a good private hospital, and there is no problem with the life of the rich and powerful. It is simply whether the money is enough. It is very capitalist. The male protagonist can live alone in a hospital emergency center. There is almost no resistance or even helping him in what he is forced to give. Then this makes sense. People are normal people, not Bond. . Even if the little boy in the back can attend his father's trial, it makes sense. The trial process in the United States will take half a year to complete, which is much more reasonable than the funeral two months later.

It is said that this movie borrows from another movie, I will look for it later.
