This is a movie that tells the director's understanding of human survival desire and cause and effect.

Personally, I think the film is a humanistic and philosophical drama with the appearance of violence. The understanding of cause and effect is expressed through different characters' understanding of survival, greed, and the way desire is satisfied. That is, when you do anything for greed, no matter how strong you are now, you will always get what you deserve when you eventually lose power.
A variety of characters have enriched the plot, such as sinister and cunning or scheming or drifting or bewildered but somewhat sentimental underworld characters.
Although suffering but kind aunt.
The banker's idler is lazy and poisonous but not bad middle-aged nephew.
The grief-stricken brothers and sisters.
The most important finishing touches I personally think are the high-strength martial arts, who loves his wife and abides by his dignity, but the supporting actor whose hands are stained with the blood of bad people, and the supporting actor's wife who is beautiful, gentle, empathetic, and in the end also suffers from karma.

Although the individual behaviors are different and the interests are different, they are all affected by the karma of the grid
