It's not fun

The professor's intelligence and force are under the opponent's, and there is no strong teammate support. The overall situation is controlled by the opponent's rhythm. Tragedy is inevitable. But if the professor's intelligence and strength are above the opponent's, and he has the support of his powerful teammates, and seizes the opponent's lifeline, then the plot is estimated to have to be reversed.

Sheep and wolves are fighting each other. Only by transforming into a wolf and gathering teammates can you be qualified to fight against the wolves. I thought it was a high-intensity confrontation, but it turned out to be a vegetable abuse game, which was a little less interesting.

The belief that justice will win only exists when the strength exceeds the opponent's strength, or can hit a fatal blow. The professor has no chance in this game.

Ask: How to defeat an enemy whose strength is far greater than one's own?

    A very powerful film, the result of contradicting mainstream values. The cruel reality is often like this, being sold and still helping some money, about the truth, what we know is often a fart!

    Would you feel more comfortable getting rid of a symbolic criminal? We always think that we can solve the problem by finding the key person, and we think that as long as this "outlier" is eliminated from our society, we will succeed. But the fact is that this "heterogeneous" does not exist independently of our society, but is included in our society, in other words, one of the products of our society, does not solve some deeper troubles, this production line will not be shut down...

Arlington Road quotes

  • Michael Faraday: They asked you what you stand for. You tell them, you stand for blowing up families. For orphan sons. Your father really killed himself you son of a bitch? Or is that just where you got your start?

    [steps on Lang's neck]

    Michael Faraday: Call it off.

    Oliver Lang: It's for you, Michael. We're doing this for you. It's for all of us.

    Michael Faraday: It's not for me, call it off!

    Oliver Lang: Are you happy in your godless suburban life?

    Michael Faraday: Call off the bomb! Call off the fuckin' bomb!

    [Lang smashes the walkie talkie]

    Michael Faraday: No!

    Oliver Lang: They sent your wife to her death, Michael! Surely you won't be sorry to see them go?

    Oliver Lang: Go on... run. You're too late!
