These killers are not too cold

Ray and Ken, two ruthless killers, are on vacation in Bruges. Lei, a stupid young killer who was guilty and unable to extricate himself after killing a boy by mistake; Ken, a deep and generous middle-aged killer, like a loving big brother. Harry, their boss, a gangster full of swearing nonsense and neurotic gangster, arranged for them to take a mandatory vacation. At the beginning of the film, the two killers go sightseeing and talk about the unbearable past, vomiting bitterness and comforting each other; Ray meets a beautiful woman and gradually falls in love; everything is like an ordinary romantic vacation; in fact, the vacation is just a conspiracy, ha Lee arranged for the two to take a vacation, so that Ken killed Thunder; Ken had a hard time making a choice. On the one hand, it was the professional ethics of a killer and the brotherhood on the other. How to choose? Lei also encountered a dilemma. He could not forgive his faults and was frustrated with life, but the warm love made him start to return hope to life, walking on the edge of life and death, he hesitated. All the contradictions and conflicts finally broke out together... This is a black humorous film, an ancient city in the Middle Ages, with a leisurely and calm picture, nonsensical dialogue, funny and deep plot, which makes people feel a little sad after a smile. A ray of sadness, everything is faint, but endless aftertaste. Rated five stars, grand recommendation. Excerpted some classic dialogues:

Ken and Ray talked to each other by the lake in the square:
Ken: I killed people, not many people, most of them are not good people, except for one.
Ray: Who?
Ken: This guy is Danny Alibon’s brother. He just wants to protect his brother, just like we would do. He just sells lollipops, and he walks towards me with a bottle, what will happen to you? ...I killed him.
Lei: My understanding is, sorry, if holding a glass bottle, it is a lethal weapon, he asked for it.
Ken: I think so in my heart, and I know he wants to protect his brother.
Lei: I know, but he might kill you with the bottle.
Ken: Technically speaking, he can kill with his bare hands, and his hands can also be lethal weapons. What if he can do karate?
Lei: You said he was selling candy! Why do people who sell lollipops learn karate?
Ken: I'm just assuming!
Ray: How old is he?
Ken: Probably...50.
Lei: What the hell does a 50-year-old man who sells lollipops learn karate? Is he a Chinese who sells lollipops? sky! Ken, I just want to say...
Ken: I know... After

Ken told Ray to kill him:
Ken: I came to Bruges to give you the last good memories.
Ray: To Bruges? (Rethinking meditation) Maybe it's okay in the Bahamas, why is it Bruges?
Ken:...I guess... it's cheap.

Harry gave Ken's phone message:
Number one, u aren't in when I fucking told u to be in!
Number two, why doesn't this hotel have phone with fucking voicemail, and not I have to leave messages with the fucking receptionist?
Number three, u better fucking be in tomorrow night when I fucking call again or there'll be fucking hell to pay, I'm fucking telling u. HARRY

first, I fucking told you to wait in the hotel but you weren't there!
Second, why doesn't this hotel have a fucking answering machine? So I had to let the fucking operator leave a message.
Third, when I fucking call you tomorrow night, you'd better be fucking there, otherwise I'll fucking hell, I'll tell you the fuck.
Harry

Ray and Harry duel in the hotel, in the middle of pregnancy owner Marika:
Ray: Mary, let him up, all right! Harry, promise me, let her go and shoot again!
Harry: I swear, she won't leave me and shoot.
Mary: I won't go there either, this is my hotel, (turns to Harry) It's you who is going to get out!
Ray and Harry were in a dilemma.
Harry: I guess you also have a gun, right?
Lei: Yes.
Harry: What should I do? We can't stay like this all night.
Mary: Why don't you put down your guns and go home?
Harry: Don't be silly! This is a shootout!

    [Want to watch 2013-05-16] I finally watched this...The play is very delicate (the so-called textbook-like delicate, I got an Oscar nomination), although it is super hypothetical and used too many coincidences, but It's really funny, and the actor's performance has solved the credibility problem to a considerable extent. Movie scenes are also considered mixed. "There must be a battle between whites and blacks" sounds really ridiculous today, and the lack of political correctness standards censorship is also one of the factors that the jokes in this film are well written. These so-called stupid and criminal films in China should really learn this one, don’t keep staring at [Murder Reminiscence]...

    Hearing the news that Ray was in the square, Harry ran down the clock tower with a gun, but Ken, who was injured, climbed to the top of the building desperately. He sprinkled a bag of coins and stared at all beings and Bruges, the middle-aged water city, like a god. He had seen the anxiety of the Lei Yue girl who looked in the mirror before, and the depression of her head down and guilt and suicide. Ken has killed many people, never afraid of death, just afraid of dying meaninglessly. This time was his most meaningful murder, but the dead was himself.
