Got a big name. . .

Yesterday was boring. After watching a few episodes of Friends, I clicked on History of Violence. I thought it should be a clean and neat action movie, preferably something like Jet Li's Chen Zhen. Follow the routine.
The director is very calm, calm and seems to have bearing. From the beginning, two non-key criminal characters start to introduce the story, the protagonist appears, and the son of the protagonist appears. , I don't know who the prince of the human race is), the protagonist kills the starting character, the protagonist goes on TV, the gangsters come to the protagonist, lead out the protagonist's history, the protagonist kills the gangster, solves his own history, and the protagonist returns to the family. The appearance of the protagonist is based on a good family, an excellent wife, and children. There are two erotic shots, one sex as an expression of happiness and one sex as an outlet for stress. There are three violent scenes, completed by the prince of the human race, and the movements are clean and neat. The head of the starting character who was blown up is very impressive, real, and the large-scale rupture caused by close-range shooting is like a rotten apple for a long time. .
I had read a book "People and Stories", and its cover was very endearing. It was a mermaid. The author's name was Gao Xiaokang. It seemed that the story was a box technique, a box inside a box. Like a Russian nesting doll. It seems that it depends on where the handler (including the director, the author and other roles, it is better to call the handler nice) where he starts and what kind of attitude he has.
I think the director took a big name, History of Violence! A person was once in the midst of violence and was a savage killer (not as savage as Jet Li in "Tiger Out of the Cage"). After fleeing from the desert, he lived a peaceful life, as if he had changed a person. Be evil, then be good again. In fact, it is not evil. Violence is just a manifestation of ability. I thought it would be a magnificent film. The author chose only one person's mental journey, maybe he wanted to express it from the protagonist's son? I think the theme song of the film might as well be changed to Hurry up and use the nunchucks, hum haha, hurry up and use the nunchucks, hum haha, hurry up and use the nunchucks, hum haha. . . .
I have many blank topics, such as one: morbid history. That's what makes me pay close attention to the history of violence.
The quiet towns in the United States should all be towns with stories.
Any key plot revealed? Consider it a discussion. Bad reviews.

A History of Violence quotes

  • [Mr. Fogarty tells Edie that her husband's real name is Joey Cusack]

    Edie Stall: My husband does not know you. He wouldn't know you, somebody like you.

    Carl Fogarty: Oh, he knows Carl Fogarty, all right. He knows me intimately. See?

    [Mr. Fogarty points to his blind left eye]

    Carl Fogarty: This isn't a completely dead eye. It still works a bit. The problem is, the only thing I can see with it is Joey Cusack. And it can see right through him. Right through your husband, Edie. I see what's inside him, what makes him tick. He's still the same guy.

    Edie Stall: No.

    Carl Fogarty: He's still crazy fuckin' Joey. And you know it, don't you?
